Transfer Rumblings

@approxinfinity I’m not sure if we do but if you think we do and we have the best coach in the game it should be a shoe in title!
I’m not really up on other teams right now so once I get to watch some non con we will see who’s got the best roster
I think we do but not 100% sold. If we do have the best Bill better deliver

@BShark what about Arkansas?
Kstate has a better roster than Arkansas!
-
@BShark I finally checked cal’s roster and he has dj wagner and pulled johnell davis. That’s gotta be the best backcourt in America right?
Also, why on earth did Ballo leave Arizona for Indiana???
All sorts of transfers this off-season I don’t understand

Davis is nasty but Wagner does not impress me. I would take Iowa State’s back court over Arkansas, and others as well.

Money.

Can definitely understand it for Ballo, his game is not likely to stick in the NBA and so wants to maximize his earning now. Similar to Hunter leaving Michigan, though Ballo didn’t have the same level of offers from contenders
-
Wagner stinks and is living off HS hype
-
@BShark are any isu bb players in on the betting scandal? I heard they were.

Nana Owusu-Anane will visit Kansas, per Joe Tipton.

Good solid bench piece. Entered the portal shortly after Brown played KU. Has been out injured this year (shoulder). One to monitor.

He can? Compared to KJ, he can shoot 3’s, but he’s a career 27% from 3 with a season best of 31%. That’s against some of the weakest D1 competition out there so I doubt he’d even shoot those numbers at KU.
That said, I do believe he would be a solid bench piece as someone that can come in and get to the FT line. It’d also be nice to see his FT% increase though as he’s a career 65% from the FT line.
-
Even the low % numbers from 3 are better then zero which is what KJ has offered for 4 years. The kid has tape of him taking 3s open and off the catch so there’s some perimeter skill there. I’m not saying he’s our starting 4 and I’m certainly not penciling him for anything but it does look like the staff will be priorizing KJ’s replacement in the portal and will hopefully be looking for players that have more offensive versatility
-
The rise in competition is definitely the biggest hurdle for him. Just a few games last year against good competition. He did go for 13 and 11 against USC and 15 and 9 against Providence.
Has been out with a torn labrum all year. Not great.
Officially visits Tuesday. A good backup option at the 4 perhaps

I’m not saying he’s doesn’t take those shots, I’m saying opposing B12 coaches won’t respect that part of his game because his best 3 point season is only 31% and he won’t duplicate that stepping up to B12 competition.
As a back up, he seems serviceable, but if you’re looking at roster construction for next year, it’s hard to see him amd Tiller complimenting each other on offense very well.

@Texas-Hawk-10 Good thing our guys are always solid free throw shooters
Good thing our guys excel at getting to the line and transfers in always improve once here at getting to the line more
Good thing that dolla bill will let him have freedom to try that top of the key trey ball to open up the offense without quick hooking him

If he makes the visit this weekend, well that Bill guy hasn’t really missed on transfer targets that visited.
-
Gotta put Dix where the money is, or something.
I look forward to a return of a rampant abuse of last names for the sake of stupid jokes

JUCO tournament and yeah his son is a coach.

With what I’ve heard about the $ from Iowa and KU, it would be somewhat surprising if Dix returned to Iowa.
