That's the bane of every college coach these days isn't it. For better or worse with players free to move as they are doing presently it introduces brand new egos (experienced) to begin each year. The old adage of practicing towards getting better daily as the year progresses with the hope that you peak at tournaments time is never more truer. I'm hoping the dynamics with these new guys is there from day one. Go 'cats

I'm going with underated and use that as fuel. He can get to the league but I hope the chemistry with the rest of the team is ok.

All I know is the talent coming in is far superior to what we lost, and I’m excited about that.

By leaps and bounds, ltf , leaps and bounds.

There are lots of people rating transfers which is what happens today. All I know is the talent coming in is far superior to what we lost, and I’m excited about that.

Oh yes as the play was atrocious from a couple who left in the portal.

The Athletic has a running list of top available players (transfers, uncommitted high school prospects). They remove guys from the list when they commit. According to the latest update, it appears Landers Nolley was #27 best available at the time of his commitment (yesterday). Now that's hard to quantify fully, because I don't know where he might rank if they combined all the 26 ranked above him and the still uncommitted players. But still solid. ... and he's ahead of Sean McNeil who was looking at UC, apparently did not actually visit, and ultimately transferred from WVU to Ohio State.

Goodman had him as the #55 transfer as of two weeks ago https://watchstadium.com/the-top-75-...23-04-14-2022/

In a bit of a rarity, per the gobearcats.com piece, Nolley already played in Maui in 2019 with VA Tech. So, he gets to go back.

Dont forget Tyler McKinley. Be so sweet to grab He and Griffin.

McKinley is class of 2024. Griffin is announcing in 2 days. Collier and Green is an either/or thing I hope.
