Certainly would (I meant would!) sign up for that. I was talking about a perimeter guy tho

i wish we had someone adept enough and with network experience to help navigate this craziness....
If it happens, one thing is for sure - Kriisa will be interesting. Talking trash to Doncic is a choice... https://tucson.com/sports/arizonawi...cle_207e58c6-5599-11ed-af29-5f7dc34301e3.html
Why wouldn't there be even more? Why wouldn't every kid put himself in the portal and see if there's some sucker out there willing to grossly overpay for their services? I know I would.
Literally his two suspensions were:With all those suspensions, let’s hope Kerr doesn’t make Curbelo look like a choir boy?
- Estonia pro contract pre-college
- Receiving impermissible benefits at Arizona
I don't want my tone to be misconstrued. I'm not even all-in on this signing (if it is him), but I don't think the red flags are his character or the WVU season last year. The red flags to me are: his defense, his turnovers, and any ability to drive to the basket.
I'm not going to pretend that I watched a ton of games on him, but he's definitely a P5-level starter. If he ends up being a 25 mpg guy, our roster is in good shape. Offensively, he provides spacing we desperately need.
He's similar to Jenkins in that he doesn't get any free throw attempts (1.7 FTA per game vs. 2 FTA), but the usage #s are very different (18% vs. 25%). We won't be having the same debate last year about him ball hogging/taking too many shots.
Again, very very hard to judge any of these signings in isolation. Last year, I know we all would've been thrilled to have him.
Calm down and remember the process and our experience from last year. CRP doesn't pull the trigger early. He wants to be fairly sure of his picks.
Well at least Kriisa is legit PG. I believe he was also hobbled a bit last year.
Another name for SJU out there a while has been PF Xavier Amos of Northern Illinois, but I’m sure there will be some serious suitors, very physical player

A friend spoke to the AD of a Big East school yesterday (not STJ's) and reported the AD said that in addition to the staff coaching staff being overwhelmed by the process that many targets have unrealistic monetary and on monetary demands.
No one is surprised by unrealistic monetary demands but demands about playing time, additional transfer teammates, tickets, being the highest paid players, etc further complicates the process.
Krissa is a terrific player. Tough AF... he will knock down open 3, put ppl in right position and get in your face if your not. Wipe out last yr... he would be a great first domino to fall. As for Cliff yes i said he was done. He was. I can nor will say anymore that anything is done. Ever. Had a kid commit yesterday and last sec new coach comes in and doubles offer. Cliff had an offer he was accepting here. He now has higher offers. This will continue to happen. Where he ends up no idea..SJ still very much in play. Apologies for misinformation...lesson learned
Illinois is seen as favorite per Trilly. Kansas and Texas also involved
Never ever apologize for sharing info here, it's always appreciated and everyone knows you don't come here with any agenda. The landscape has changed and it's wild.
Otis , good points all . And , while I have no idea who those 7.23 percent Transfer players are collectively , I would think many of them would not be on Pitino’s Radar
So our panicking about No commits right now , appears to be , at least , somewhat premature .
Pitino wants a certain type of player that fits his style . I think this year he will not succumb to taking players that don’t fit that style .
Pitino has a track record of getting players that can perform at a high standard as part of a team
I think we can trust him and his staff to do that this season .
We also seemingly have given little or no credit to the HS players coming in , Glover and Lefty .
RP wrapped them up early . Which would seem to suggest they both passed his requirements .
I think you can take it to the Bank that Lefty will be solid in all the fundamentals . Which is why so many European players flourish in the NBA.
Be patient .
if you're good... its not a bad idea... BUT... there is a risk there are no seats left for you when the music stops...
It's way way beyond just wild, it's a complete F'in joke. With no end in sight. With each passing day I move further and further away from giving a crap.

He led the PAC-12 two straight seasons in assists as starting PG for a national power. Can shoot the 3 too.
We could do a hell of a lot worse.
