kshoe Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Thanks for the correction Westy. Us and TCU? Isn't TCU all about football and then baseball and then everything else? His release does seem a little low and deliberate but I think he looks like a nice player TCU obviously is not a great program but they are in the Big 12 so it's not horrible.Furthermore, we need to be realistic about what is available and who we are recruiting against at this point. The top teams in the big conferences are all full up on schollys for 2013 and likely have much of 2014 done already. The interim situation really made any recruiting last summer impossible. I for one am encouraged by the names we've been hearing. Hopefully we'll land a few of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bk18 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Do we want to be fill up all remaining scholarships this year or sign a couple and wait to get one more offer to hand out when we have better options next fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMM28 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Spring can be a great recruiting period. It is a lot tougher when you're bringing in a new coach that doesn't start until 2 weeks before signing day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVBilliken Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Sign 3. We already have 5 to give next fall. Not all recruits stay with the school they sign with. I would also be good with a frewman transfer. A year to learn a system is not a bad thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVBilliken Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Typing on a tablet. Freshman transfer is what I meant. A year in the system can really help and we don't need 13 next year. Boy, don't you wish we could of redshirted Remeken. And what about Ellis. Sure would have been nice if he did what RM wanted and sat out the first year after getting here so late.

bk18 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Oh My God!!!!! I don't have it all in front of me nor have the time you do to look it up, but I know Majerus had around only 10 players on scholarship one season. I wonder the average number of scholarships he had per year. I know we lose a lot of guys next year but I think with an interim head coach and for other reasons our recruiting pool won't be what it will be next fall. Also, when you follow what you said with 5 exclamation marks reminds me of when you said that exact same thing with the same number of exclamation marks when I said SLU and Mizzou need to work on playing every year and starting some form of a rivalry like Marq and Wisco have going. Sure enough Joe Strauss went on to write this article http://www.stltoday.com/sports/columns/joe-strauss/strauss-slu-vs-mizzou-there-should-be-no-debate/article_b3ed7deb-a4d1-5649-854a-17809a34dcfd.html a few months later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm frustrated because the idea of saving scholarships as well as mizzou/slu is in list of topics that has been beaten to death over the years on this forum.

doowop Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 if we get Price, Djambo and a good point guard I will be very pleased with this year's recruiting class. We've got McBroom and Mccall for next year. We can wait to get a point guard for 2014. We need Djambo and another big, preferably one who is a very good rebounder.

What good would it do to sign four outstanding guards when we need size. It goes without saying the recruits we sign should have not just talent, but high D1 talent.

Box and Won Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 this is what i'm talking about. we NEED to get this guy. i'll take pretty much any NBA player's son, ESPECIALLY mark price's. some soul asylum in there for you cocksuokers, too.

almaman Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Its down to SLU and TCU not Tulsa. Not much difference but just wanted to correct your statement. He looks good in the video, his shot looks a bit different which is a bit shocking considering his dad is Mark Price. Kind of reminds me of Shurna from Northwestern. i think more of Tulsa historically than TCU in terms of b ball. stepping stone for some good coaches thru the years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically one player per position. We need so much of everything now that we should be recruiting the best players possible regardless of position.

Don't you think? A frontline of Drew, Glaze, and Manning will sweep the boards and score inside, McBroom will run the point and he and Crawford will score at will from outside. You better believe it. At least three of them will make all conference. You better believe it. Not to worry. Getting Djambo and Price to sign won't hurt. But they will be hard pressed to break into that starting five.

Schasz Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 We also have Jared Drew who will be a redshirt Frosh next season. Don't know how many minutes he can expect but he was a Coach Majerus recruit and I think Coach liked him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
