  • Do not start this shit again here. Edit: down vote me all you want, but this already devolved into a shit show once. Be mature and control your side of things. We'll expect the same for Derka. Bu

    Hope both Hunter and Mitchell come back next year.

Julian Larry to Texas.

There is our PG type. Pretty damn good day for Texas. 

Larry makes a ton of sense with the rest of those guards who are scorers. Now we have a floor general around a bunch of scorers.

Honestly though, are we cautioned at all that we’re getting D1-AA players or are they really good!??

Some players can just play. Knecht came from the Big Sky conference. Grant Nelson was from NDSU. Jameer Nelson Jr from Delaware State. Abmas and Tylor Perry.

Missouri Valley is a top mid major conference. Don’t forget it was a couple of bid thieves that knocked Indiana State out of the tournament bracket

Larry and Kent both had good data points against decent/good competition outside of the MVC.

Larry went for 18 and 6 in the NIT championship against Seton Hall and Kent went for a 30 burger against SMU earlier in the NIT.

When adding two starters from a Kenpom top 40 team are your 2nd and 3rd best additions of the day you know it was a pretty good day. 

 

I didn’t want to post this in the young man’s commitment thread but the first thing an Arkansas booster told me is he was rumored to be involved in a love triangle with another player. Obviously his personal preferences are of no concern but hopefully he wasn’t part of something that damaged the locker room at his prior team. 

Wait…two college dudes after the same chick? No way

Well, this is not football, so that’s not a thing.
 

But also, many of the best transfers come from non-power conferences. And more importantly, Larry is a guy I think can play well alongside volume scorers. We just landed Arkansas’ leading scorer, I think it’s a good fit.

This. 4 of last year’s top 10 transfers were from non-power conferences. Looks like about 7 of the top 20 this year are non-power conference guys 

Who cares who the guy wants to fuck?  Play well, hopefully get your degree, good luck.

Longer and more athletic 

Last year's backcourt: 

Abmas (6'0 and that's generous), Hunter (6'0), Weaver (6'3).

Next year's backcourt: 

Weaver (6'3), Johnson (6'5), Mark (6'6), Larry (6'3), and maybe Pope (6'2). 

Fairly obvious that RT was tired of being that small last year.

No one cares as long as it doesn’t affect the locker room.

Often players that transfer up a level have a huge chip on their shoulder and want to prove they belong at that next higher level.  Hungry to succeed, better work ethic, and passion and effort to play great are hopefully what these new transfer players bring to the Longhorns.

In my college days I was in an all-male touring ensemble.  128 guys + staff.  Probably 30 guys were openly gay.  Nobody cared, and it certainly didn't affect the locker room.

I think it’s more inter-squad dating can affect the locker room. That was the Arky drama

Obviously, the scale is different than what I referenced, too.  Anyway, I'll be surprised if it becomes an issue.

Arkansas was surprised it became an issue too. Obviously, I doubt he makes the same mistake twice. 

Y’all are talking about message board rumors with a weirdly high degree of certainty.

That’s good for you. But at Arkansas it apparently did affect the locker room.

This applies whether it’s straight or gay.


Former NHL center Jason Arnott is a great example of this. The man could not stop trying to hook up with other players girlfriends/wives. New Jersey traded him to Dallas who then gave up on him because of all of the trouble he caused. 

99% positive that whole “love triangle” rumor was created out of thin air by bored Mizzou trolls who knew dumbass Arkansas fans would latch on to any excuse for their incompetence this season. I’m sure there are better boards out there for you to discuss these fantasies.

Jason Kidd, Jim Jackson, Toni Braxton or Tony Parker, Brent Barry, and Barry's wife might be examples people here might be more familiar with

And that’s fine. Having 2 black holes on offense was such a losing play. Give me 5 players who can score the ball, instead of a Pg who fumbles it all the time and is clanks wide open shots and a forward who is allergic to offense unless it a dunk or putback

Neither Hunter nor Mitchell were "black holes." In basketball parlance, a black hole is a teammate who never passes once the ball is in his hands.

Edited by Braff Zacklin

Well Hunter usually passes it to the other team so it's basically the same thing.

I like Mitchell.

I told Hunter to fuck off as soon as he botched the Tennessee game. 

Yeah Mitchell would be useful if they aren't guaranteeing him minutes because of his defense and rebounding.  I am done with Hunter also.

Hunter has been paired with a very good college guard in all 3 years. 

Brockington, Carr, and Abmas. 

I feel like there’s a high potential of him being even worse if he goes to lower tier P5 school where he has to be the guy.

JFC, man. We have like 3 or 4 guys returning on next year’s roster. Not every transfer you get is going to be a star. These are extremely good pieces to add to a top 25 college roster.

Could this be one of the Kentucky de-commitments? It sounds like Richmond is up next with the others. 

It's confusing because he didn't correct "higher rated prospect" which makes me think it might be a HS recruit.

He clarified last night and said it is a HS wing player who is supposed to announce for the good guys this week.

Oh yeah, this is gonna be Billy Richmond is my guess. 

We need to find replacements for Disu and Abmas. We have got some pieces that may be upgrades over other role players but we don't have anyone yet who can replace those two key guys.

Abmas couldnt be counted on when the going got tough. He was too prone to scoring droughts against top level competition. We need a top level guy. 

I'm glad RT took my comments to heart and is totally nuking the roster (save for Weaver).  It shows that we truly do make a difference here on this site.

That’s not a HS recruit if you’re referencing what Womack is talking about.
