I wonder who might morph into what we thought we had with Reid. Hard to remember a 5 star McD All American who contributed less.

Hope the season ticket increase after last season is much less. Steep increase from the previous year. Find out in month I guess.

Devonta Pollard.. But yes, Reid will always be a bit of a mystery to me. He still seemed really raw to me and while he was a "good" athlete, he wasn't the exceptional athlete that some of our fanbase seemed to think he was.

It is sorta crazy how much Philon coming back makes this roster snap to grid so to speak.

We could use one more bench-caliber C/F but otherwise this is a team with a lot of length 1 through 4.

And Sherrell at the 5, insists he is now a tad over 7'0 and 250 lbs. He said the common listing of 6'10", 220 is wrong.

It just lets everybody fall back into roles they’re comfortable with and not have to play roles that don’t fit them.

Like we seen Biz as primary ball handler at Auburn, it wasn’t good. And then we seen him last year as secondary ball handler/catch and Shoot guy and he was very very good

Have any insiders or discord folks confirmed this is our final roster or if the coaches are still looking for one more piece?

He was definitely 7'0" in shoes last summer. I watched him get measured in the locker room.

Discord says the staff is actually looking for a Big for the last spot. And Tim Watts said we are looking international

Last spot? I'm counting 11 players on roster. So we're okay with 12?

I didn't realize until the other day that Keitenn Bristow recently recorded a 40" vertical leap and 60" box jump. Those are very impressive numbers for his size. If his skills continue to develop with us, he's an NBA level athletic talent potentially.

That's probably the only place you'll find any talent this late in the game.

Idk about that, but I think international is good spot to look for someone that is going be more of a project. Stash and give him a year in the weight room, a year to develop and hopefully he’s a rotation player next year. Going to be hard to find someone who’s looking for minutes and actual playing time to take a 13th roster spot.

That Jihad dude from Arizona State is still in the portal and would be a great fit. Probably too expensive though.

New assistant coach Chris Fleming coached in Europe for several years. He likely has several contacts there.
