MBB Transfer Portal Thread: Moser Year 4

[Topher]

@notaburner said there was a big from a power 6 school supposed to come but never gave us a name because he hadn’t confirmed.

Well just saw Bob P say I guess they were focusing on guards this weekend then bigs next week. So we'll see what happens.

 

[WhirlpoolWillie]

Lusk just said we are focused on finding a big who can backup Godwin, as we are allocating all our money towards Richmond

I’m perfectly fine making Richmond the top priority but hope they are ready to pivot if he goes elsewhere.

 

[cmdsooner]

Sort of surprised not to see this in here already and maybe I missed it but… this feels like a positive development in the Kadary Richmond recruitment.



I guess he also said they’re not out for Kadary and thinks they’re in the driver’s seat but

 

[notaburner]

Yeah as far as I can tell the big did not make it in town yet. Makes sense because the name I have heard comes from a big school but hadn’t been productive. Lack of production seems due to being stuck behind some big names & injuries.

Very tall and does have potential for solid backup.

Maybe similar to how Auburn was in the driver's seat for Miles? OU has $1M plus to throw at two players and money talks

Christian Reeves?

Christian Reeves?

I thought about him today as being a possibility.

 

[allday92]

Yep, I don't have any inside information, but know a couple of donors and they mentioned his name.

 

[soonertrash77]

Miles/Forsythe
Richmond/Elvis
Jones/Goodine
Moore/Cole
Godwin/Norweather

I'd be happy about that.. add an average big and it only gets better. At this point, I'd rather have Richmond than any other big out there I think.

We already have 3 average bigs….

I'd be supportive of this. I'm avoiding watching more Richmond film until we land him, as I don't need more heartbreak, but if he's as good as it seems, I'm okay abandoning the pursuit of a 5 entirely. This team needs a bona-fide star and I'm beyond caring what position anymore. Don't overpay for a 5 that is marginally better than Godwin.

 

[Landthieves]

Any chance of going to a 4 guard lineup? I know Moore is small for a 5 (6-7) Not sure how big the SEC’s 5 men are.. Should be a lineup we may be able to use some, with Godwin’s past foul trouble’s

Sorry for the charts! (Not.)

That lineup was used 5th and 6th most the last 5 games of the year with Moore at the 5. So I would say it is possible if our big constraints happen again with no real jump from Luke N.

Also, Christian Reaves mentioned as the big to watch for from TOS poster...wonder if @notaburner can confirm? Seems to track with his description.

Big school - Duke
Lack of prod - 3 games
Stuck behind big names - Filipkowski/Mitchell(Stewart?)
Injuries - Ruled out (Feb 1) for the rest of the season after surgery
Very Tall - 7'1"
Potential for solid backup - Yes



MORE CHARTS!

The thing is, looking at his Freshman numbers...he has the potential for some solid play if he can get healthy and stay on the court.

 

[sooner333]

I do note that the NBA’s announcement about early entry states Moore is 6-6. So it is a pretty small lineup. But could also be dangerous with the guards we are and are hoping to land.

Lusk confirmed this is a guy we’re looking at

 

[TEvans4Three]

per a Duke fan, I found some highlights of Reeves at their Countdown 2 Craziness the last 2 years:





I like the potential there.

If you cant get THAT backing up Godwin...we are in good shape.

 

[steverocks35]

We don’t need a backup to Godwin at the 5. We need a starter.

Yep, you absolutely bring that to Norman.

We absolutely want Godwin on the bench, I get it...

But a backup that can defend and has potential with 2 years is a take every time.

I take Kadary all day and a backup big vs a scrub and a meh big. There just aren't many bigs we are going to win battles for in the portal. Just my opinion. (could very well be wrong)

If you have a chance at the #1 portal transfer ... you take a backup big.
