That other player on the box score Mahki Myles, decommitted from Wichita St and looks like went to Miss St. Was 6A Mr Basketball in MS. So that's a good team.

Mostly it's position-less but when bringing the ball up the floor vs the press, I think we need someone with the ball handling skills/passing of a traditional PG. It could be a "SG" with above avg ball handling and good passing. When you're in the half court set it's positionless So less necessity for a traditional PG as long as everyone is a good passer

Rodney Terry is a likeable dude and he got to the Elite 8 in his interim year and was awarded the job. He's never won significantly at any other HC stop, sound familiar? I've been worried he's Texas Crews since he was hired. Many Texas fans question his coaching. They were just so inconsistent last season. I can't tell yet if Terry has a coherent offensive system and defensive scheme. These guys might not perform optimally like in Schertz's system. It's really hard to beat Texas when they get someone on campus for a visit. If the majority of the team came over then I was thinking NCAA bid. With a lot of new pieces that's less certain. But I'm hopeful, Schertz had 8 new players last season and they gelled on offense.

Too bad about Kent. Texas also signed Tramon Mark from Arky who seems like a similar player maybe Kent is more of a SF and Mark a SG. Good sign that Larry didn't also commit, but I think Texas is holding out for Pope from OSU. So if one of the other Texas schools like SMU doesn't make a play maybe SLU can get Larry on campus. We need PGs.

Pope from Oregon State is probably the top PG priority. Larry might be the fallback option. As for Kent, Texas has the #2 SG incoming Tre Johnson and Chendall Weaver played a lot at the end of the year so I'm not sure how much PT is there even with Max Abmas gone. So one of our biggest positions of need PG, is also a need for Texas.

Max Pikaar iss listed as 6'11, 200lbs and his only P5 offer is Penn St. Other offers include ISU, St. Bonaventure, Idaho State, Middle Tennessee State, and Sam Houston State. From Wichita, KS. 247Sports has no ratings, Verbal Commits has him as 4 star 3.71 rating. Dutch kid so I'm sure he's very nice and rides a bike. I guess this means to Nitu. Similar players to fit the system. Seems like Schertz has a plan.

Anybody going to the MAC on 16th for BVF event with the coach? Donate to BVF, visually impaired Centers need glasses.

I think there's some positionless basketball amongst guards in the system once you get into the half court. But if you get pressed you need a guy with those ball handling skills sometimes.

We need PGs Conor Enright Drake PG in the portal, he's from IL, would be familiar to our coach. https://godrakebulldogs.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/conor-enright/9432

So right now SLU has 4 Guards Thames Hughes Jimmerson Williford incoming Freshman Need PGs

Si Mr. Worldwide

Or that the new staff is smart and working contingencies. Also pressure from scarcity is a big driver for human decision making. If you think a spot will be open for you with no pressure to decide you can take your time. If you think it could be filled if you find decide you might decide quicker and it makes that position look more desirable.

Horns 247 board admin responded to me about Avila. Doesn't appear that he's visiting Texas. Kent and Larry are visiting together. Maybe Avila's traveling with them to get some Torchy's tacos and queso. We'll know more probably Monday, it could make that Coach BVF appearance on Tuesday interesting.
