Next year

[CaptBob]

Where do we go--
Wusu, Jenkins, Toumi --done, no eligibility left
Okorafor--show him the door
Dual, Tubek--not fitting in, most likely gone
Felton, Coleman--like to keep but probably gone
Mbaye--who knows what he can do if anything-- big ???
Which leaves us with Aligbe, Yeldon,Middleton,& Erherien and two walk ons
Not a lot to work with. We're in some deep shit trouble

 

[Piratz]

Lots of opportunity to improve!

Would be very hard (one would think) to get any worse. 😂

Keep felton and isaiah def. Theres a spot for scottie. Hes been a 3 pt killer. Depends what godswill asks for but hes young and agile. Okorafor moves well but gets lost a ton. Another that can improve. Prince depends what he wants. If u can recruit over anyone u do it. Gus needs to lose major weight.
All comes down to what they cost.

They can all leave. None of them are irreplaceable.

There are a few nice pieces -- Coleman, Felton, Middleton, maybe Godswill and Aligbe. With a (good) bit of work Dual, Tubek and Yalden as well.

But there's nobody on this roster I would be heartbroken to see move on.

Aligbe is too frustrating to watch. If he comes back limited minutes off the bench if anything

I agree with Coleman, Middleton, Godswill, Yalden, Aligbe, and Tubek. That's already a lot of end of bench types. Need a PG/SG/capable big. $$$

Dual needs to show a lot more considering what's rumored to be what he was paid. We have 13 more BE games and at least 1 at the BET. I hope we he shows something.

Realistically with money being an obstacle, we're not getting guys who can pass, dribble and shoot but are also extremely athletic. I've accepted that fact. This year we went after guys who are long and athletic who fit the defensive philosophy. It's failed miserable. I'm hoping if we have to give up on any of those qualities, I hope we choose to go after guys who might not be as athletic but can pass, dribble, and shoot. We get those type of guys and mold them into Sha's defense. I think it's safe to say non scoring athletic guys isn't the way to go.

How many want to stay? That's the question.

 

[Bud Boomer]

Depends on price. We need to pay Coleman and one more star player. I would be willing to commit some money to Middleton and Dual because I think both have a ceiling (I think Dual has been playing hurt), but it really depends on price. We will be able to find cheap replacement level players in the portal.

I think there are guys who may want to stay because it's their best option.

On the other hand, those are the players who will have the least opportunity to stay.

We have minutes at the high D1 level to offer under rated players. That’s about it. Need to do a much better job finding them than this year.

I remember seeing Dual at Providence and thinking he has that second gear Whitehead had. Really explosive and athletic. He totally does not move that way now which is why I think he’s not producing. Interesting you think he is injured as well. Any insight what body part? Foot, knee?

Eh, I watched Dual a decent amount last year (though obviously not as much as this year). Beyond pedigree and both being big, athletic guards -- top 50 type kids on paper out of prep (though IW was always and consistently ranked higher in this class) -- I don't see much comparison.

Dual was somewhat of a late bloomer, I believe, or at least got on the radar of rating services a bit later than most kids. Which is how I think Providence got on him.

He's playing for us the same way he played for Providence last year, it seems. Which, coupled with him being a kid that sometimes has "issues", is seemingly why Kim English didn't try to retain him.

I was "all in" on him and Middleton, so fair to say I've been disappointed by both, and more so with Dual. To think a kid with that pedigree even as recent as this summer would have "DNP's" or games he barely played on this particular Hall squad is mind-boggling.

Plenty of season left for him to change perception and perhaps achieve what me and others thought he would this year. If he does that, or shows some more signs, I would be favor of trying to keep him. Assuming no better options.

he legitimately cannot shoot from anywhere. no matter how close or far.
