It’s a bad look. Gotta agree with this point somewhat. We have several threads about former coaches, players, etc that get more attention then our actual players and coaches.

DocCas86 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) I compiled the following to try to get a high level view of how this roster could be coming together. It consists of players that we currently have signed / committed, offers and public interest. Curious what people think about potential roles / starters from this or what they perceive as focus areas for any future prospects to be identified. Edit: To add players still in portal and yet to commit elsewhere. Likely they end up transferring, but thought this would be more complete Edited April 18, 2023 by DocCas86 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like GH is going to go for a more "positionless" basketball approach. He mentioned that he wants all players to be able to switch. So he might be going for a lot of taller guards and more athletic (but maybe shorter) big men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we're all assuming that Isaac Jack won't be re-recruited, curious if that's why you left him off? Hope we start to see some more HS & JUCO offers / re-recruits / transfer gains so we can get a feel for Halcovage's vision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that was why he was off, I don't have any inside info one way or the other. He certainly has options. Also originally left Powell and Blocker off. Not sure what their chances are of rejoining the Bulls. Edited April 20, 2023 by DocCas86 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblue32 Posted April 20, 2023 Author Share Posted April 20, 2023 Pretty sure that Kanye Jones is #3. He has longer hair than Blocker and it makes more sense to me as he is the only other player not in the portal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Practice jersey numbers don't mean anything. They wouldn't have ordered gear at this point anyway. Their jerseys were probably dirty/forgotten. In this vid Kanye wears 42 and Jo Smith and Isaac Jack are both wearing 24s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue03 Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Saw that Bryson retweeted this so poked around and found we got him from the same high school as Ceaser. Seem to have some good connections there flowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what it seems he left on pretty good terms and moved to a team closer to home, can’t hate that decision. Looking forward to keeping up with his time there, had a bit of a Segu type game in him. Wilson plays like Ceaser a bit but is more the size of a wing than PG. think we got two great but overlooked HS guys coming in 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me have my fun in the offseason 😆 That being said, based on what I've seen for the two commitments I'm not too excited yet given that Ohio is adding a ton of top recruits, but recruit rankings aren't necessarily what shines on the court.

Ohio is a well-oiled machine! They're going to have talented, competitive teams as long as Boals is there. We'll be getting our share of P5 rejects in time with Coach G's connections. I'm not particularly concerned with competing with the big boys in conference this season. This is clearly a rebuilding year for us as the staff sorts out a fractured roster for the future. But high-level shooters like Sabol can even up perceived gaps in talent quicker than some expect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rma Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 I'm hoping Boals takes a new job this offseason. He deserves it, and so does the Ohio University Bobcats and some of their more vocal fans (not the one on here though, he's okay 😉). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year, Jack was not met with a lot of fanfare, yet he had a solid FR season and is now considering a bump up. Hoping either Sabol or Wilson can contribute in year 1, but they seem like more foundation for years 2 and beyond. I will be tuned in to see in Nov / Dec.
