I'd take every good walk on we can get, almost no risk

How many years of eligibility would he have left?

I've yet to confirm that gut wrenching news ......I'm not sure I want to confirm it.

On his instagram he posted a picture of him playing with the caption "Could be the last rodeo..." Other than that I haven't seen anything about him leaving.

Durham has blew out his knee a few times already, might be cause for concern.

With that quality of player I would take the risk. He can always take a redshirt year if he gets injured and we have plenty of scholarships to go around. If he wants to come here it should be a no brained for the staff to give him a scholarship.

Have I missed Bo leaving ..... although wouldn't be surprised ... and there are a couple of other walk-ons besides Jake.

Oh my bad I forgot him, so that leaves 6 scholarship players

Who do we have left that hasn't transferred or reportedly transferred?

Da Silva, Bibby, Guerrero, Manderson, Malik Martin, Ziegler as of now unless I have missed something. We also don't know about Holston yet.

Heath had some good recruits.  Big mistake firing him.  That's what happens when the President who is an old lady gets to fire the coach.  She said at one time he got fired because he played boring basketball.  She did not understand he was trying to slow down the game, play tough defense and win close games.  Back then we were playing Big East basketball and he was playing to the strength of his players. Let's fire Judy.  

I don't think he will go slower than Mack, I'm expecting a 4.45

Ziegler just dunked over Tacko Fall

Apparently you haven't watched our gals play against top-15 teams, but hey, don't stop dreaming.

I wouldn't consider this out of the picture, but I wouldn't expect it. We should be able to win in he first round (should) and they only need one good game against a top 16 team to make the sweet 16. I really don't find this unrealistic.

I've been following him for a couple weeks, and I'm not surprised he committed because of all his positivity towards USF. According to his Hudl he runs a 4.37

And that Barkley spasm heave was trash. 

He took like 7 steps before he shot it

These refs are awful, just like every game. That put back was nowhere close to being a goaltending 

Tulip nearly broke the rim with that posterizer 

I really hope the Vikings draft him

Lots of varying opinions here. Is the team talented and neither Antigua or Bartow could harness it. Or is Bartow a guy who can coach up talent but the squad has none?

I agree that Guerrero is a guy who hasn't shown a lot of improvement. He lacks any form of athleticism with facing or with his back to the basket, but is a guy who shows some flashes on the boards.

The team has talent but continues to play inconsistently with turnovers and fouls. Like I said, every player has showed flashes this year but they can't put it together for a full game. I really don't know if Bartow is the answer but he has definitely put more work into it than Antigua did. I think there is a base for the new coach to work from, since there are no seniors, but the coach has to be a guy who can drill the fundamentals and smart basketball into these guys.

Up by 4 at the end of the 3rd quarter 

Down by 8 right now, but Thorpe just had a HUGE dunk in transition that can hopefully give us some momentum. Game started off 17-1 for Uconn.

Starting to wonder about him.  Coming in to this season some of us thought that his ability to shoot along with the departed McMurray would be a nice 1 - 2 punch.  But Troy seems to not make a high percentage of shots almost nightly.

I feel like this is because he takes too many bad shots. I've only seen him take a couple open 3's and the rest are contested.

I think ther overall talent on this team is subpar and not limited to the bench.

I feel like there is a lot of raw talent on this team that needs to be developed by a proper coach. I honestly think that if we give a good coach an offseason with this personnel they could do well. I have seen individual performances from every player that show me they can play well be they aren't consistent and smart with the basketball. Holston, Bibby, and Thorpe can shoot but they don't take good shots. Santos and Da Silva can create havoc on the offensive boards but they need to learn how to get in better position and not foul. Fitts went off for 28 points last week. Ziegler and Guerrero are the two players who I can see you saying they lack talent. Ziegler is extremely athletic but lacks any jump shot, and Guerrero has size D has had some good games but isn't consistent at all and has rocks as hands.

4 Star WR Dingle?  I thought he is a 3 Star

Depends on the recruiting site.
