Yah...if we get Traynor we will need/want to probably get a transfer big as well if he red shirts. Eason seems interested in the West Coast but who knows. I would hate to strike out on both just...

Yes...it is not true. They preferred to play together (of course...they are twins) but they were being recruited separately for the most part. They would have committed to different schools had the...

Along with any risk of landing a recruit you also have to weigh the risk of not landing them which some people seem to want to ignore. You need to factor any reward side with any risk. SCrubb is a...

I would highly doubt he would be here if it were not for Gabe but that has little to do with whether or not he can provide value for us. He's at least a mid major talent with a gym rat work ethic so...

You seem to be starting from a point that I would not be starting from. I would assume Saunders and Harvey will be starting but even that is not set in stone. After that I would not be setting...

This is not a two scholly for one player deal. That concept is utterly ridiculous!
Unless you don't count the scholarships Cronin offered to guys ranked in the 300-400's. This whole concept of...

There are 2 spots left open. At least one big and likely 2. The availability of Scrubb would be the only thing likely to throw a loop in those plans IMO. And that could change if a player of ours...

It was hard enough for Brannen to fill out the 2019 class on late notice and to also get the 2020 class started with little time to build relationships. But he did end the 2019 recruiting with...

By all accounts it sounds like the Madsens are hard working gym rats. I think Prince is in the same mold of players who may/will work dawn until dusk to become better players. Having guys like that...

I understand what your point is. My personal opinion is you get the talented and likely impact player and reel them in. It's not easy to do so when the opportunity comes up go for it. There is...

I don't get the risk with Harvey either. We are talking about the 13th scholly here. Cronin left two spots open several years in a row with no players to fill them. Harvey would have been a no...

The biggest risk is not that Gabe leaves with Mason. It’s that they spend 4 years here and never pan out. If they leave we recruit again. If they stay they hold two scholarships for potentially 4...

I really like the addition of Madsen(s)! As it relates to Gabe I think we can throw away his ranking or stars as Brannen clearly/likely sees Gabe as an impact player and he probably sees valuable...

We definitely have a lot of unknowns right now for 2020 in terms of bigs but we should know a lot more about Dou and Prince by end of year. Vogt will remain a question but Brannen seems to think he...

Hoping we can nail down either Traynor or Eason next and then maybe pocket one for later unless we can land a stud C or another PF now. I would probably also take Scrubb as the last scholly. I...

I think the main difference between the two is that Gabe is a shot creator and Mason looks like more of a facilitator and waits for his moments while Gabe creates them.

After watching a little more video on Gabe Madsen I would say he's got a lighting fast release and a step back shot that I would call "virtually unguardable" considering his height and quick release....

Things seem to be heating up a little bit after a period of little news. We have some visits coming up for the UCLA game.

It seems like the Madsen brothers are becoming a real possibility and...

In theory I would say that works well too. The only thing I would say is that even most of the jucos we have had go through a one year adjustment period even if SCrubb is a little higher caliber...

I'm seeing anywhere from 6'4" to 6'6" for Gabe Madsen. let's call it 6'5" which I think is plenty of size for a wing.

It seems like he has been (and is) a major priority for the staff which...

Galloway gone now too. IU. That’s okay we tried. I would not bet on Scrubb or Loveday.

Anyway it doesn’t hurt to offer and get them on campus. Most of the offers I have seen are pretty solid...

Not much news going on right now but from the looks of things Brannen has been focused on wings and bigs for 2020 (with Saunders already in).

I think he has probably offered 10+ wings and 10+...
