Like John Cleese said, the loudest noise he ever heard was a silent audience.Are you sure that’s what Pitino is doing or is he busy eating at 5 star restaurants, spending time at the track and hanging out on the west coast in shorts a tee and flip flops?

GUILTY!!!
ans. 1 - Still shopping.While I still have faith that coach and staff will bring in a good crop of players, I’m starting to wonder if I miss understood what this site has been professing regarding portal recruiting or if all the info we have been getting is just supposition and wishful thinking on the part of many posters.
Many have claimed that Coach staff and Matt A have made many inroads during the season with potential transfer candidates. But here’s what seems strange.
1. If such inroads have been made, then why has not one played popped for the Johnnie’s as of yet? And please spare me the old “recruiting is fluid “ mantra. Someone should have popped by now or we at least should have had multiple visits.
2. Since now, many are claiming that coach and staff are anticipating better players coming out so why not wait? With so many surprises in the portal, I don’t believe that staff fully knew ahead of time who was going to be available and those so called in roads were just hopeful speculation by many of our posters.
The reality seems to be a vivid imagination by many of our fan base as to the process of getting kids out of the transfer portal. I mean come on now, how many times have we heard that Cliff was coming in for a visit???
ans. 2 - Sill shopping.
It'd be pretty shocking if he doesn't follow Sprinkle to Washington, right?
I’d sign him on the great name alone.
But some of our fans would revolt because he’s from the Mountain West Conference.
Probably but many of those kids include a do not contact when they go in portal because they don't want to waste time hearing from schools when they already know where they are going.

Also just realized him and Amari Williams were (likely) teammates at Myerscough College Basketball Academy in England together. That'd be an interesting package deal.
Mapping Out a Successful Portal Season for Washington
What would a slam dunk next few months of portal kombat look like for Coach Sprinkle?

"We’ve already seen that PF/C Great Osobor is willing to follow Coach Sprinkle as he joined him from Montana State to Utah State. The biggest question mark for Osobor is likely the status of Utah State assistant Chris Haslam who like Osobor is from the UK and has coached the big men under Coach Sprinkle for the last 5 years. Early rumors haven’t indicated there will be a spot on the staff for Haslam and that greatly reduces the chances that Osobor would be willing to transfer for the second straight offseason."

Osobor grew up in Spain and England before basketball took him to Bozeman, Mont., and Logan, Utah. He's averaging 18.0 points.

Back to work... lol
Day late and a dollar short Paultz...lol
Thank you “Captain Kindness”
Nice- think we'll really know how good our guys are Feb '25....I predict at least two new players prior to the start of official practice in October.
You know the drill, we always want to be "peaking in February" so we can "share the sugar" and "salt away victories"
Sorry past coaches and their sayings are always stuck in my head, such as Mully's favorite "Greg can you talk to the boys, I need to make sure I double knot this"
*hides from Carmine*
There better be if we are going to field a team. Any info on ncaa waiver process for out two Ivy grads?
No inside info. Just being skeptical given how this has played out with Cliff , cancelled visit, and our pursuit of other centers. Hope I am wrong.
