    I don’t really feel comfortable with starting any of these players. Ogbonna is straight up not a FBS level passer and admittedly I haven’t seen much at all of Gray and Watts , but I don’t believe they are difference makers if they couldn’t find playing time despite the QB woes last season. I hope we find a decent QB in the next portal window. 

    Gray had an insanely strong arm in the spring game last year. However, he didn’t pass often. Ogbonna showed flashes last year but he doesn’t have much arm talent. I’d expect it to be 1.gray, 2. Ogbonna, 3. Watts. Especially if the new HC and OC want to open up the passing game more.

    They're more wings than guards. Akot and Jackson are college SFs from everything I've seen based on handle and height.

    Boldin is the only one I'd call a true college SG. Adams, Graham, McVeigh, Wilson, Akot, Jackson, and now Batchelor are all forwards based on their lack of handle to me.

    I get interchangeable pieces, but we're a roster without reliable PG play and without reliable big play at the moment. Waiting for those roles to be addressed.

    I like having a ton of size but I totally get what you are saying, just having another PG who can also play the SG position would help a ton! We also do need a true center, we have height but not that type of height, unless Oboh is a complete stud we really need help there as well

    An entire team of SFs...

    Seems to be a decent talent that needs a fresh start. Was ranked #207 out of IMG by 247.

    Some incomers like Jackson and Akot also play the SG position. We  need a PG and Center transfer next. Many players can be interchangeable on the floor

    Yes, was heavily recruited in HS. Held offers from Memphis, Florida and Clemson as well

    I know I keep adding but I watched a lot of his highlights because Syracuse had a ton of interest in him out of HS. He was known as a dead eye three point shooter who also had quite a bit of athleticism. Can be moved around from the SF to PF position depending on matchups. I know on paper his stats don’t jump off the page but this dude can ball

    named to this 2024 all Canadian basketball game

    Supposedly the top 24 boys and girls are named to this team that either play in Canada or are from Canada 

     

    I believe Jack played in this as well, there is some insane talent in these teams

    Who thinks we should extend GHIII?

    If the team preforms better next year I’d consider it. Some of our freshmen were pretty impressive at times this year, they’ll only get better. Just need to hit the portal hard and find some players to surround them with. The young guys seem very bought into the process so I think they’ll stay for the ride. I’d go and grab another transfer center and PG instead of another freshman

    Looks pretty athletic from his highlight tape, which is mostly dunks. Looks very skinny for a D1 player but he has time to build up strength. Doesn’t seem like he has any other D1 offers which is concerning, but maybe we’ve found a diamond in the rough we can develop. 

    A lot of Canadian players go under the radar, especially if they stay up in Canada for HS. This kid is an absolute baller

    Found this for his U18 Championship stats.

    https://www.fiba.basketball/europe/u18b/2023/player/Timothy-Oboh

    I'm ok giving some European guys a try. It works for the NBA 😀

    Watched some of his highlights, he’s insanely dominant at his level. Looks easy for him. When playing against competition at a higher level he still looks very comfortable, especially playing for Britain’s u-18 team. He’s arguably one of Englands top prospects. We will have to see how it translates to American college ball but he reminds me of a taller Mballa, has a ton of size

    You can't read much into any exhibition game, but margin with Syracuse was 15, so Daemen certainly not a pushover for a D2 program.

    BG just lost to a D2 team so I’m not too worried. Daemen is also very senior laden with a ton of experience. They played Cuse very well for a while. Also Cuse lost to lemoyne in an exhibition the year they went to the final four. Exhibition games are times to try new lineups, plays and get freshman some time. 
     

    I’ll save the majority of my thoughts until the regular season. I don’t expect much from this team other than to improve as time goes on. They have talent so if they can stick together for the next couple years we may have a pretty scary team to come

    Three visits down, one more to Colorado St.  For what it is worth he looks happiest in pics during UB visit (at least if you ask me).   It would be great to get a commit next month.  Fingers crossed.

     

    He’s liked a few UB basketball posts on twitter since his visit as well if that means anything

    I’m unfamiliar with the NBL but he put up really strong numbers there. Seemed like he was also playing against men a lot older than him. We still have one more open scholarship to fill the PG spot, Hal has said he’d like to play positionless so maybe one of the other freshman can develop there as well

    Boldin played some PG at IMG, would transition to SG as well
