    The 6'8 junior from Denton, TX averaged 10.8 points, 3.8 rebounds this year at TCU, his third with the Horned Frogs. He played 6 games at Butler in the 2020-21 season but tore his meniscus. Not sure if you can double dip on the medical redshirt and COVID year, so he has at least one year of eligibility. https://gofrogs.com/sports/mens-bask...be-coles/15340

    Appears to have an "859" tattoo on his forearm, so may have ties to the region.

    Averaged 11.0 points and 4.7 assists this year at WVU (42.4% from three). Career: 9.7 points, 4.7 assists (and 2.4 turnovers) per game, and 36.8% from three and 78.8% from the FT line, including his years at Arizona.

    Appears to have one year of eligibility remaining.

    I'm bouncing this off a post in Somto Cyril's thread from GoBearcats31

    UK had six guys in this class. Three of them have received an NLI release so far. Perry, Fland and Richmond are still committed. The pundits seem to think most of these guys are headed to Fayetteville. I think Perry will be the outlier if that happens.

    Again, keep in mind that G-League Ignite is still an option here for the guys that received a release. I think I mistakenly posted at some point that this was not an option. Ignite will still be in operation this coming season and that will be the last year for it. I think it's somewhat likely that Cyril and Quaintence will go that route since they were one and done anyway. Unless of course, Arkansas opens the NIL collective pocketbooks and tries to buy a team.

    Yep -- UC and Missouri perceived to be the top two, per "Trilly Donovan" (at least as of Sunday/Monday)

    Also, if I am not mistaken, Missouri may be in a good spot for Iowa transfer Tony Perkins so that could help the Bearcats' chances
    Warrick visiting Missouri this weekend, per The Portal Report

    Intriguing name - 6'6 senior from Indianapolis who played two at Louisville and two at Seton Hall - COVID year (one year) left)

    @jeffborzello
    Seton Hall senior Dre Davis plans to enter the transfer portal, sources told ESPN. Averaged 15.0 points and 5.9 rebounds this season. Was terrific in the Pirates’ run to an NIT title, scoring 18 points in the championship game win over Indiana State.

    EKU's Pierce Thomas is portaling. During the CJB era, he picked Butler over UC (and I recall UC even getting a crystal ball pick). He went for 2.2 points per game as a redshirt freshman at Butler in 22-23 and 0.7 points in 11 games this year at EKU. Seems like a good one to have missed out on a few years ago.

    If Warrick picks us and the staff has confidence in him, he's a Bearcat and I will support him. I'm not fully scouting him, I can only go on the couple times I've seen him play (against us) and what the numbers say. You're right, Warrick is asked to do a lot at NKU, and statistically that shows up in his high usage rate. But his low box plus minus indicates that he's not helping his team as much as other players we've contacted (including Hickman). He was by far the worst defender on NKU, and that concerns me when we're looking at Simas and freshmen joining him on the wing after losing a great defender in Newman. If he can regain his shooting form, he can be a solid piece though.
    If Reed can improve his offense, do the stats show him to be as good a defender asI think he is? He made mistakes in both the past two seasons, but seemed to be the guy relieving Newmann and being a lockdown defender mid way through this year. Maybe if you can break down his stats just to conference games, will we see an improvement over first part of the year? Also, add Rayvon as RS freshman. I believe the year on the bench will let him shine next year,

    I won't pretend to know even a fraction of what you do about analytics including things like usage and what not. But it is conceivable someone like Warrick was forced to do a lot more for NKU then he'd be asked/wanted to do going up a level at a place like UC (which can negatively affect his numbers). Sometimes these transfers work, sometimes they don't, often in between. But my sense is usually that if the coach/staff like a kid, that's good for me. Also, Warrick is supposed to be a great kid. There are certain things that can never be quantified through stats, including attitude/leadership/work ethic. If he had an opportunity to come to UC, there is still going to be a lot of hard work in the offseason.

    And I will add that you already know more about his game than me, so your critiques/concerns are certainly very valid. I am just optimistic that if he does pick UC, it works out.

    Arkansas currently has ZERO scholarship players on their roster. This is going to be like a hockey line change for Calipari
