The 2023 Official “Jay Bilas No Rules” Transfer Portal Thread

[SHOCKvalue]

I’ll just put this here. Watching the NFL draft and noticed the WSU shirt… first thought there was a Ted Lasso connection; definitely a WTH moment.

Pretty solid WTF, but I'll allow it.

LOL!

Markquis Nowell's stats at Little Rock vs Elijah Hawkin's at Howard are quite comparable (I tend to lean towards Hawkins personally). Markquis is listed at 5' 8". After seeing Markquis this March who wouldn't want to try recreate that magic.

Good point. They did have similar stats.

Did not play at TAMU this past year. Not sure if the was a elective redshirt or injury related. He also missed his senior year due to injury. So no the experienced point guard we need.

According to some, this is waaaay better

I have no idea about whether we are recruiting him but it would make sense due to his location if we were, although we need immediate help. The guy is an incredible athlete and was one of the best players in Texas in high school.

Seems like this could said at the start of most recruiting threads these days haha

So, who said that? I've not seen that said at all. I've seen some, including myself, defend the staff for being stealth. But we will see if it works or not. I'm guessing that we will see little to no difference.
I believe some on SN are just upset that they aren't getting any inside Info, and I guess that's understandable, but it is also understandable that the staff recruit how they want. It is their livelihood on the line and not ours.

There’s not a single person upset they aren’t getting inside info frequently … but I do believe you think this is waaaaay better

Nobody is saying that. What you perceive as that is really just a lack of emotion about it one way or another. Obviously you don’t have that ability with this, which is fine. Just don’t be so all up in your feels about it that you say something stupid.
