We need scoring... I'd love for Tolu to return but wouldn't be mad to see some move on with all due respect to themQuote:

I like it, but I would add one more scorer to that lineup and take out Davis:Quote:

That gives us 3 scorers and good defense
Almost all of them.Quote:

That's certainly not great, but pretty damn solid.
I want DJ and Shak to come back more than anyone else. They can actually shoot. Jans unlocked something in them. I would also take Tolu because I saw what a matchup nightmare Sanogo was in the tourney. The rest are expendable.
I like DJ's defense, but he had his worst offensive season this past yearQuote:

I can't wait to see the 2 juco guys he's signed. We'll see if he can evaluate on these guys. With the portal, there's no reason to reach on juco/HS guys, so I'm assuming jans really likes these guysQuote:

I think Fort is about to be legit.
Let's dream on it...Quote:

If fort is a legit scorer, that's a nice lineup
Or a better lineup:Quote:

Transfer
Cam
Mcnair/Transfer
I'm fine with dj being back. I just don't want dj and cam on court together unless we playing D for a big stopQuote:

Speaking of jones... I actually think he could have some serious helium going into next season.
OM pulled a 4-star transfer today. Anyone that doesn't think beard is gonna be a problem is fooling themself
I'm glad they hired him because he is an easy guy to not likeQuote:

Umm, yes we can most certainly judge Beard. Hubbard apparently judged the situation and said "No Thanks ". To even consider comparing Jans' transgressions with Beard's is laughable. Not to mention Jans' incident happened in 2015 and he wasn't immediately offered a Power 5 job. He had to work his way back to that opportunity. Jans has shown contrition and has not had another issue since. Beard, on the other hand, gets the immediate opportunity to make millions all the while being an example and leader of young men. Hell of an example to put in front of these kids. Let's see how that plays out.Quote:
