This would be incredibly disappointing and give you some pause, but it’s still early for roster construction in this new era of college hoops.

Better comparison would be Traore or Keita.
Guy last coach didn’t realize was good.
Maybe Traore will be Hardy and Keita will be Brownlee.

Kid was already good this past year with lights out numbers and a tourney game under his belt. He will be a handful for other teams on the court this year for us. Plus you can’t foul him because he’s lights out. Let’s just get him signed first and then enjoy our signing.

I'm far from panicking but I'm also less than thrilled so far with the results (or lack thereof).

That is why said Clayton and Hardy not a good comparison. Plus he is now supposedly going to Florida instead.

Not so fast lol

LMAO WHAT. Weiss of all guys leads us astray

Does this open the door for Posh a little?

 

[Mullins Revenge]

Whos right? Mike Hoops or Dick Weiss?

 

[Wolfie]

Excited that we are maybe getting Clayton… but this take made me laugh. Let’s pump the brakes here. That’s pretty wild expectations to put on a guy

Doesn't seem wild to me. Why not be excited? Clayton was MAAC POY as a sophomore, held his own against UCONN in the NCAA's, and helped Iona beat Alabama 2 years ago.
Don't know if he'll measure up to Hardy, but not a stretch imo, and why not dream?

 

[MCNPA]

Aight, I can’t believe this kid would play for a noob coach at UF rather than the Big East and a HOF coach. Disappointed if we don’t land him. Kid is a stud. Hard to land kids like this.

Kid is really good, but Hardy comparison would not be in play if kid going to Florida.

Call Posh now please

Is that hoops guy maintaining Clayton to SJU even after the latest Weiss tweet

 

[paultzman]

Hoops apologized for screw up lol

Agree Larry. Bummed right now.

 

[basketballjones]

I smell a belated April fools joke.

 

[Larry Wright]

Ignoring the risk of being warned….
If you are a good player like Clayton wouldn’t the lack of a roster surrounding you give you pause? Until first good player comes here that is the risk.

 

[Wolfie]

Call Posh now please

Was thinking that earlier before the head fake and am back to it.

 

[Larry Wright]

Call Posh now please

Mullins revenge has him tied up in his basement

 

[SJU61982]

Call Posh now please

I really don't see where else you can go right now. Otherwise, it's going to be a long season in 23-24.

I have confidence that Pitino will coach up whatever players are here, but if they're all walk-on caliber, how many wins will that mean, anyway? Taking a 5 win talent to 8 wins? Not exciting.
