Transfers
- Thread starter paultzman
- Start date
Can't see how either would fit in to Chris's future plans. Guessing same holds true for ADR and probably Jones. With Slice and Matt on board, and based on what we've seen in a short period of time, can't imagine the staff won't quickly find kids who will be huge upgrades over those 4.
He had all last summer to get in shape and he didn't. He had all season to get in shape and he didn't. In fact in the number of times I saw him at CTK this winter, he looked to be in worse shape than the year before. At the St. Mary's game he was huffing and puffing......on the lay up line! Hoping ADR has an epiphany, but don't see it happening. Besides we still have no idea what his academic standing is. Not expecting him to be in our future plans, maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.
This is very true, but when Mullin mentioned the new look johnnies as being a team in great shape, I immediately though of his potential impact on ADR. I guess all we can do is hope that we are both pleasantly surprised next year.
Side note- I wonder if he can teach Felix B how to shoot? Would def then be able to give us some quality minutes. Would be a lot of work but I saw it happen with Danny Green coming. Out of St Mary's

ADR has skills but clearly needs to get in better shape to be able to contribute
Another question is his academic status
Will he even be eligible to play next season?
Felix has a high motor, tremendous athleticism and a willingness to play defense
But he has been a detriment offensively when he gets a chance to play
If he could develop range up to 15 feet, he could definitely help us next year
Coach Mullin is the shooting guru - hope they work together to make it happen
@GoodmanESPN: Transfer List is at 450-plus and we're only in mid-April. The record was 700 last year --http://t.co/O9T0HYNi8C
Listed w Cunningham too fwiw.
Just my musings, but I think the staff will keep ADR in the fold. They have been making inroads with the local HS schools, so why mess with that. You can't teach size, and the kid has skills.
It isn't extremely hard for a college athlete to get into shape. He is going to be closely monitored, and I think all the good vibes surrounding the program will rub off on ADR.
With the bigs already on board, demanding he get into shape to give a hard 10-12 minutes per game isn't a tall order.
What good do any of his skills do us if..
1) he isn't eligible
2) He can't get up and down the court
And neither of those issues are resolved. Why give yourself more headaches? Nothing against Adonis, but give me a player instead without eligibility issues or a conditioning problem.
Sorry paultz, do you mean we are listed with cunningham? I was wondering what was going on with him.
From link above
15. Josh Cunningham, Bradley -- He was a Top 100 recruit, and he can rebound and defend; he plays hard. The 6-7 Illinois native averaged 7.9 points and 7.5 boards as a freshman for the Braves this past season.
Considering: Arizona, DePaul, Michigan State, Notre Dame, St. John’s, Minnesota, Purdue, South Carolina, UIC, Dayton, Colorado State

Team needs guards, at least 2 of them.
For sure, like this crafty PG;
22. Anthony Collins, South Florida (eligible immediately) -- The veteran point guard was granted a medical hardship waiver and can play his final season in 2015-16. Collins played only eight games in 2013-14 due to a knee injury, and this past season he averaged 7.1 points and 5.2 assists.
Considering: California, Tennessee, Baylor, Georgetown, St. John's, Purdue
