Enough for Brown, Green, and Kuminga. If those 3 wanna come we will just send someone packing lol

Thor said in IG love that Jalen is coming, but you didn’t hear it from him

I’ll take any combination of the 3 Green, Brown, or Cardwell. Would be a solid finish and around a top 5 class. Green and Brown would put about 2-3 nationally. We currently are sitting at 8th with UK, UT, LSU, and Arkie ahead of us.

Well he is a 2021 reclassify, where he would have been a 5*.

Why would a player be a 5* in 2021, but a 4* in 2020? Is it bc they expected him to improve more with another year in HC that he would eventually be a 5*?
Or is the reason something else?

This is what Thor tweeted out, but I’m wondering why Jim N Nicks is advertised?

I’ll allow it. Hope we don’t become Missouri poor resorting to naming rights though.

I watched some highlights last night. Super skinny kid but sounds like he’s pretty young still. He’ll have to grow into that frame
Really like how he plays near the paint. Seems like he’s got a good feel down there
Edit: just saw another clip where he looks a bit bigger so who knows

He was a 5* and top 10 player in 2021 before he reclassified. Then dropped to 50.
As to why, not totally sure. My assumption is that he’s just not as developed as 2020 guys are. But someone else would have to answer that

JT Thor has a nice release with a long arching shot that will be nearly unblockable with his size even if he jumps flat flooted.

I noticed that too and his soft hands, which allows for the ball to find a way into the basket even if it doesn't go right in.
His upper body seems weaker, so I hope he can build up some more upper body strength or he could get banged around a lot around the basket.

That would be my guess also. The extra year makes a big difference in skill and size.

Didn’t JG have an interview a month or so ago where he said it would be either Auburn or going pro?
