2018-2019 Grad & Sitout Transfer Thread
-
Bingo! That’s what he is, at times a lights out shooter. Really good from the FT line as well so he has value at end of game situations. Often played out of position for Albany because Nichols (who transferred to FSU) this spring as well wasn’t a true PG. Cremo is a true SG that has some vision and shot making ability. A specific role at KU could make all the difference
-
I see Cremo as a 2/3 at KU. He can play the 2 and slide Grimes or Garrett to the 3. He played some point at Albany but I’d rather have him off the ball. He does have a good enough handle to bring the ball up on occasion. I think he competes for a starting gig immediately if he picks us.
-
Baylor has landed high scoring transfer MaCio Teague.
-
Can Cremo create his own shot? Designated shooters who need to be open spot haven’t worked well for KU, have they?
-
He can create his own shot. He’d instantly become the best shooter on the team
Duke looked at him. He’s visiting Villanova this week as well. Gonzaga, Creighton, Texas also on his list. He’s got plenty of attention from big programs

Cremo works as a designated shooter in a lot of different lineups. He could be a nice addition if KU misses on Langford. 18-20 minutes a game off the bench shooting 3-5 threes per game, I could see him being a really nice asset. I don’t think he could start because he probably won’t be versatile enough, but he could be a bench guy that scores a few points a game, with the potential to hit 6 or 7 threes on any given night.
I don’t think he starts either. Starting line-up should be Dotson, Grimes, Garrett. I could maybe see Moore early in the season but I hope not.
-
If Doke is back, Cremo may need to start in a Doke-Dedric-Grimes-Dotson lineup to space the floor a bit more. I’m still waiting to see how Garrett’s shot progresses before I decide where he can fit in different lineups.
-
If Moore is starting it means he is really playing well enough to beat one of the big names…which is a good thing.
-
I actually heard that Moore was really good in practice last year and surprised the staff quite a bit. At some points he was “unguardable”.
-
@Woodrow - some of KU’s opponents last year were “unguardable”.
-
@Gorilla72 True story. I was not really expecting much from Moore next year so when I was told this I was quite encouraged.

That would be a pretty good starting line-up tbh. Growing pains for Dotson and Grimes but otherwise very good.
I think Doke is gone and we see both Lawsons starting in the post.

I see it just as easily being possible in the other direction. Grimes clashes with Self early (for w/e reason, probably lack of defensive effort) and Self teaches him a “lesson” like Oubre. It would be stupid, but we’ve seen it before.

This would be the first positive thing I’ve heard about Moore emanating from the program. Hope it’s true.
-
That would be a bad thing if Grimes isn’t playing. Grimes is one of the five most talented players Self has ever recruited to KU. Only Embiid, Wiggins and maybe Josh Jackson can get ahead of him. If Langford comes to KU, Grimes is still fourth or fifth. Him not playing would be a big deal and a potential disaster.
Grimes should play (and play a lot) from Day One. Grimes has legitimate superstar potential at the pro level, nevermind college (as does Langford). Self hasn’t had that at his disposal before.

I agree with you but I will put nothing past Self.
Some people do disagree about Grimes, seen some say a worse Selden.
Brandon Roy is a decent comp for him, imo.
What I like the most about Grimes is that he is a crafty player. Has some old man/junk to his game already. Dedric is like that too.
Sounds like Romeo sent in his NLI to Indiana on Saturday so it’s safe to write him off now.
-
Louisville adds grad transfer PG Christen Cunningham to its roster
West Virginia adds Juco transfer Jermaine Haley a 6’7 guard.
Tennessee adds grad transfer PG Kwan Fore to its roster
-
Wake Forest adds transfer point guard Tory Johnson. Immediately eligible.
They also added Buffalo grad transfer Ikeena Smart 6’10 post. Started 25 games and was apart of the team that upset Arizona in the first round
-
Sounds like Jay Wright wasn’t at Nova campus much if at all yesterday when Cremo visisted. Could be an interesting dynamic there
-
Big loss for West Virginia. Teddy Allen will transfer
-
Some hawks are following Cremo now on social media. Could be a positive sign?
-
-
Virginia lands Braxton Key. Sit one to play 2.

Let’s see Braxton Key? - -where was he from again? - - -and does this effect Cremo in anyway - - haven’t heard how his visit to KU went this weekend?
-
@jayballer73 Key went to UVA.
-
Was watching some more on this Cremo kid. - -Looks like has a lot of catch and shoot - capable at times looks like of knocking down deep 3 - -distance.- Was stated he has like a little Jeff Boschee in him. - - Not a great defender , if he wants a lot of minutes that’s gonna have to change. Not how good he is a getting his own shot , seen possible couple of times maybe create - -but looks to me a lot more catch and shoot. - - if he commits here - we shall see.
-
He won’t be a good defender here. But he does a lot of other things well. He can push the young guys, he’s a gym rat and works hard and has no ego. We have a need for a shooter. I have no idea whether he’d get a ton of minutes here as the difference between Albany and KU level is significant. He is the best available out there that fits our need though
-
Will he be the new version of Brannen Greene minus the attitude? Greene was perhaps the best pure shooter I have seen in college but his attitude and ego prevented him from having a more substantial role at KU.
-
I would say comparable in terms of pure shooter. I think Svi is a good comp as well. He’s not a great athlete/defender but he knows how to score and his shooting %'s have always supported that.
-
Cremo to nova
-
When you win the title you attract the better players; no doubt it helped Villanova. With its recent success Villanova will be getting looks from higher ranked players that want to stay in the East Coast, more of an issue for ACC teams and even UK than it is for KU, although in this particular case I would have liked for Cremo to come to KU.
-
I’m guessing all their guys will sign an agent and stay in the draft.
-
Nevada continues to crush the graduate transfer market.
Ehab Amin, a 6-foot-4 graduate transfer from Texas A&M-Corpus Christi signs with Nevada. Averaged 16 a game as a jr, missed last year with hip injury.

Can’t see him going there if the racist Italian was coming back.

I have committed to Coach Marshall and Wichita State University. I want to thank everyone who’s supported me throughout this process and my freshman year. Can’t wait to get to work in Wichita ! All the glory to my Lord and Savior ! Copied and pasted from teddy buckets(Allen) wvu
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I hope he wasn’t trying to get away from big brother KU. I’m fairly certain KU is more on WSU’s mind than WVU and Wichita doesn’t get a chance to do anything about it.
-
@dylans I really don’t know why he was in huggy’s dog house, do you? He was in there a long time. I don’t think he played much against us in tourney. Have to look. Guy can shoot. Kinda funny he went from huggy to Marsha.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I have no idea. Maybe because he looks like Brannen Greene?

From Huggy to Smuggy!

Ehab Amin decommitted from Nevada. I wouldn’t hate adding him. 6-4, averaged 17 points and almost 7 boards a couple years ago.

transfer list approaching 8 hundred fitty. Crazzy times
