Wild to see Mo at the top of the heap here.

I think the main driving statistic that TEvans4Three uses is PER, which I do as well in my own calculations. However, I'm not sure which source he uses for it. He's showing 23.7 for Wague and Basketball-Reference shows it as 21.0, which is a significant difference. Also, PER can tend to be artificially inflated for lower minutes played per game. So for my calculation I reduce the PER when MP is less than 27 by taking MP/27 * PER. I imagine if you did that with his ratings here, that would put Wague between Brown and Reid, which seems more logical to me.

edit: no disrespect intended to @TEvans4Three. His calculation could very well be spot on.

Porter paid for 2 years....

Sounds like OU has a zoom with Desean Goode this weekend. He’d be a quality addition, but we’re up against stiff competition. His role would likely be bigger here than at Kentucky, Louisville, etc. Might be one we’d have to “overpay” if we really want him.

According to Lusk the Zoom already happened and they’re visiting him in person this weekend.

Gotcha. I saw where he is meeting with several schools, so assumed it had to be zoom. Face to face is good news then.

Is Atak 100% gone? Is anyone in the know? I just would hate to lose him.

Lusk just dropped some notes this morning:

Guards:

Terrence Hill Jr. - OU working to get him on campus for a visit, but slot at number 3 right now behind Kansas and Tennessee

T.O. Barrett - working to set up a visit

Kayden Mingo - Still in the zoom phase, but OU is very high on him

DJ Wagner - heavily in the mix, already zoomed. Villanova other main team pursuing. Will not take many visits, if any at all. Very familiar with Scott/Brown.

Markus Burton - Wild Card, a target if he makes it through the weekend uncommitted with his visits to Houston and Indiana


Wings:

Devin Royal - Zoomed Thursday night, believe to be in a pretty good spot, even as Villanova is the team to beat. Viewed as a three, will look to get him on campus

Khani Rooths - viewed as a four, 6-10, upside swing, Michigan is also involved, but they likely can't offer as big of a role as Oklahoma


Lusk also said that one of these guard will be a take, and that for now, one of these wings will be as well. We have no true targets at center, but will be adding a starter out of the portal, Kai Rogers is not expected to be the starter.

Would take any of those targets except Barrett.

If we need 7-9 guys, Barrett would be a take for me- for depth and solid minutes.

But from all the guys in the portal, and he's the starting G with X, and the off-ball deep threat, we've missed big-time.

Absolutely agree. I highly doubt he would come to ou to be the 7th man though

Barrett transferring from Missouri makes no sense. Huge role as a starter and played well in SEC play.

They have a dude at pg coming. He isn’t starting next year.

Ahh that explains it.

Missouri has two McDonald’s AA kids coming in. Stupid of them … don’t they know you should use high school recruiting to sign baseball players and redshirts??

 

[cmdsooner]

Optimistic take would be maybe this helps with Hill. Not sure that’s exactly how I feel about it though.

 

[bjksooner]

Really intrigued by the Louisville kid. Types we need. Offer bigger roles than what some of the blue bloods can.

Not great competition here but still, some of the movement & skill at his size is notable.
