Looks like I missed some drama last night.

How did Miller look last night? I didn't get a chance to watch the game and I can't even find a damn box score anywhere.

I only watched the first half but it was exciting and fun to watch when I was watching.

I can't find one either but I watched a good bit of it. I was surprised how good his handles were. He can be a prototypical point forward if Oats wants to use him this way. He is long but very thin; so, I wouldn't expect a lot around the rim. He wasn't overly aggressive but that may have had more to do with it being an all star game. Overall, he looked like he belonged. He should help us out a good bit.

I wish Bradley could have played. Would have like to have seen him compete and play against his teammates. His teammate George is a guy I hoped Bama would get for awhile but he's going to Baylor. Having Bradley, George and Jarace all on IMG is crazy.

He also had a bit of a sore ankle that may have had something to do with it.

Good. That's really all I was looking for. I still remember watching Devonta Pollard in the McDonald's game and coming away a bit concerned because he looked very much out of place.

#1 on my checklist is out the door. If we replace him with someone that shoots better than 10.5% from 3 and doesn’t post on TikTok during a game while suspended, I think that’s a net positive for the program.

I probably made about 30% in high school 20 years ago, I have no idea how to use TikTok, and while I have both an undergraduate and professional degree, I could still go back to school for something else. Nate, if you're reading this I'm ready whenever I get the call.

So I believe this means we're at four transfer spots now? That's assuming both Miles and Gary return and Gurley not counting.

Interesting...

I would say 5-6, expecting 1 or 2 more transfer announcement.

How do you get 4? We have 5 incoming recruits and only Rojas, Ellis, JQ, Tchikou, KAH, and Holt for sure leaving. Assuming Shack and JD are gone as well? Probably a safe assumption, but as of now we have 1. 2 if Gurley doesn't count.

Eh, I'm not thrilled he's leaving. I don't know what the suspension was about, but all I saw in him was a freshman that played hard, rebounded, played better defense than most of our veterans, was athletic and long, and who was struggling with his shot. And, he was a pretty good shooter in hs, so I think that would improve.

We'll probably replace him with a transfer that is worse in most areas.

Guess we’ll have to agree to disagree on him and our unknown addition.

Yeah I didn't want Holt to leave. But if he's a knucklehead and we can replace him with someone better, LFG.

5 from recruiting class.

Burnett, Bediako, Miles, and Gary make 9 out of 13 spots.

I'm assuming Shack and JD are gone. Gurley doesn't count (we think).

So right now projecting four open spots.

When I played in the late 80's if you missed a few 3's, you were likely coming out of the game. It wasn't a shot most coaches wanted you shooting. Most teams slowed the game down to almost a halt. You rarely played teams that pushed it.

It's a different game now.

If we are able to sign him, Jalen Bridges is better at literally every aspect of basketball than Holt. Tons of big time programs are after him though, so that is admittedly a big if.

Is this summary pretty accurate (assuming Gurley doesn't count)?
