    J Hill
    Cortes
    Beverly
    Washington
    Ballard

    would give you 3 ball handlers/guys you know can make plays with the ball in their hands, but you’re sacrificing some perimeter shooting.

    J Hill
    McGinnis
    Beverly
    Washington
    Ballard

    would give you more ability to space the floor w/ McGinnis being a better threat from 3. Hoping for some improvement from Harland and Cortes from 3 next year tho.

    either way, more pieces to work with than last year. Good offseason for Mills!

      I'm really glad Mills was able to land Meeks. He fills front court void we had perfectly. Taylor has him listed as our last scholarship player in the roster update, but as a 6 year senior graduate transfer he might make more sense as the walk-on with a nice NIL package. Then the last scholarship could go to the remaining spot on the roster. Either way I'll be interested who the last spot goes to because their seems to be more to it than just another player for the practice squad.

      I think Mills has done a great job this offseason. So many veterans and interchangeable pieces that really seem to compliment each other. I think practices are going to be very competitive with all these players trying to earn as many minutes as possible.

        I really like this roster at it is at this point. Would have been nice to have an over seas trip with this group.

          We look 9-10 deep. And most senior laden teams made noise last year so hopefully that’s a good sign.

            Okay, now it's time for Coach Mills to put away his fishing tackle and get out his chemistry set. Although you are never totaling done fishing.

              I keep hearing/seeing comments about another commitment coming in. I wonder if it could be an international player?

                Thanks for your input Mrs. Mills.

                  That line of thinking makes a lot of sense imho. And with so many open scholarships next year, it seems likely it's a younger player that gets to step into one of those in year 2.


                  Someone that, say, is a stretch 4-5 type, maybe in the 7'2" range, nimble with great footwork but a strong core and lower center of gravity that prevents him from being pushed around. Rim protector, great FT shooter and looking to be an aeronautical engineer. Elite leaper.

                        That's some very specific traits lol. And I would not have a problem with any of them other than to pray we could keep him around every year lmao.

                              My fearless prediction of a 5th place finish last Season makes me leary to get all eternally optimistic on this Season. I'll wait to see who the walk on is. Maybe another EO type player? No?
                              Stay tune cause i don't know.
