    I am in agreemoent with others hoping we get a freshmen.
    Several times? I must have been getting popcorn and refreshing my tequila shots when all this happened.

      I voted transfer that will have to sit a year. Preferably a sophomore, but I'd also like to see us just sign a true freshman. Minutes are already extremely limited anyway, so perhaps if we got a freshman, we could automatically redshirt him. I just don't see a grad transfer or JUCO being able to come in and contribute more than what we already have. I love the team we have, so go get a young guy and stow him away for the future.

        I think we go with another guard for depth. AR and CJ were okay in spot minutes against the MVC, but are still unproven against quality teams and did look lost/overmatched at times. Hoping they show improved handles, but Austin's injury history worries me - would love to see him at 100%. Semajae is just unproven at he D1 level. A solid graduate transfer would be my preference.

          By the way, I'd take this one:


          But this one is my favorite (I'm kinda' old school):

            I'd like to see them at least look at a kid named Nolan Bertain, a
            2* unsigned kid. Looked at some video and he looks like another
            in the mold of a LS/AR. Good ball handler, excellent outside
            shooter, and a high BBIQ according to his recruiting profile. Defense
            could be a question mark but if he has a high BBIQ he probably
            understands.

                No fun pics of blondes or brunettes, just a picture of a good tequila which is moderately priced. Sorry.

                But here's a link:


                Anejo is normally aged in a cedar barrel. Similar to aging bourbon in an oak barrel. Smooths it out and makes it taste better.

                I hope you have a great weekend!

It almost has to go to a freshman big or wing.

                  Do we have Reeves for sure? Maybe. His history of shoulder injuries and the physical play of Div. 1 basketball leave me unconvinced. Because of the unknown, makes a guard to be where we need depth. I would also go with a guard that will be here multiple years. Now if our medical and coaching staffs have complete faith in the long term health of Reeves, then I say a big man is ok.

                    I'm hoping for Juiston.

                      The risk of his shoulder was significant when compared to his minutes. Is he worth having when his shoulder sucks and he only plays for 10 minutes a game? Probably. I feel it won't be significant when his output becomes 15 minutes or even more. If he gets injured at 15minutes per game, then we have gotten good enough out of Reaves scholarship.

                        I bet we add both a big and a guard

                              Postings like this one lead me to ask if you watched the Wichita State Shockers last year or did you watch a Shocker team in a different universe?

                                Yea, like when I bought my Toro zero turn mower 10 years ago. If it goes **** up this year I would have gotten enough out of it to be considered a good buy.
