I wouldn’t mind him coming off the bench if he comes in with that expectation

He looks much smoother overall to me than either of those guys. I haven’t watched a ton though



From what I've seen he is pretty smooth but not really a high flyer like we are used to at the guard spots.
Sees the floor well and passes it much better than anyone we've had in a while. Honestly kinda reminds me of Ford in some ways. Can be a beast on defense and plays like more of a slasher than a shooter.

Baye Fall is the same type of player and already better than Kelel.


I'm going to disagree here. Ware was clearly taller/bigger than 7'1 Dereck Lively at the McDonald's AA Game. Lively may not be as tall as he's listed, but I'd guess that Ware has 2" or more over Fall.

And Ware looked great in that game, too. I know he's had problems at Oregon, but he has the skills and just needs the right environment. Not sure if that will be Arkansas, but he's the kind of player who could be irrelevant for most of the season and completely dominate when needed in the tournament.

I'd take him in a heartbeat. The latest mock draft on 247 has him going 30th and everyone knows that he has the potential to go higher.

Kentucky guy yesterday said Fall was 7' now at mcAA practice.

I would not waste a spot on Kelel since we have a better version already and don't need another team cancer type.

That's interesting. I watched the practice on YouTube and he didn't look that tall to me, but I don't know how big the guys around him were. I'm going to look that up and watch it again.

Hard pass on Caleb Love. I’m worried Muss will like him.

that's great, but he sure could use some meat on him.

Do these upper echelon high schools not have weight programs anymore?

I think you guys just have unrealistic expectations of meat for a 17-18 year old kid.

This is how they all look.

He is 6'11" 205, Brazile is 6'10" 200 in year 3.

The #1 C for the class, Kentucky's Aaron Bradshaw is 7' 210.

Yeah, we don't want those type of guys in our system. If you can't extend the floor and play D on the perimeter and/or shoot the 3 as a big you're pretty useless to Muss.

Or the NBA for that matter which is why Oscar is lucky to even be drafted despite his accolades.

Not much use for those types in hoops these days.

They still need to be surrounded by shooters and passers though.

That kid, Denver Jones from FIU is one if the best transfers Guards I've seen so far and he also set an in-home visit with Arkansas as well.

Bama, Okie State and Oklahoma are all after him, too.

He's a big guard at 6'4", and can shoot and defend.

He would be an absolute huge get.

Jones and Olivari both have good numbers.
