[Reinert310]

Wait...I thought the big news tonight was gonna be adding a new Chick-Fil-A location to the free throw promotion. Who’s this Nesbitt guy?

[slufanskip]

I just hope he’s able to handle the step up in class.

Not to throw cold water on this but literally the step up in class...as Memphis isn't known for academics.  Though we haven't had as many academic issues the last few years as we seemed to in the 90s and early 2000s.

Also if the guy had some attitude issues (not saying he did, I don't believe everything I hear) sometimes it's the situation not the person. 

Big time get, we needed this to help ease the loss of 2 really good players. Plus Nesbitt has years of eligibility

Will this lead to anyone else on the roster entering the portal?

Remember, we still have 2 more open scholarships. We’re not done. A lot of stuff can happen between now and November. Crazy to think about.

We're getting Fletcher and Madsen, plus Goodwin and French are coming back along with Hightower.

Can you even imagine? We could go 15 deep. Holy crap.

Give Hargrove a chance to start 

[Slu let the dogs out?]

Nice of the city inmates to take a 30 minute revolt break from 10:30-11 to allow Frank to break the Nesbitt news. Hats off, guys.

We play a 4 out.  Nesbitt, Thatch, or Perkins can guard any 4 in the A10.

I certainly wouldn’t complain if we got a PF but there’s a part of me that thinks those 4 with any one of Hargrove, Jimerson, or Fred could be electric.

Beat me to it

We have so many weapons that can legit run an offense. Obviously JG and HF are all time greats that got slu back on the map, but until JG established his shot later in his career they were pretty much take it to the rack and rebound guys (very effective at it though). All these dudes can flow with an offense and score however. Yes FT is more of a JG but he plays a much smaller role in the offense than JG did.
 

Wow I am thrilled. Time to get a few more and get to work TF!

Let me preface this with saying I love Yuri Collins.  However, imagine this lineup on defense with their length and athleticism: Nesbitt, Strickland, Hargrove, Perkins, Okoro.

Remember TJ had the highest 3pt% for the season last year.

Doesn’t Nesbitt also play PG? I thought he had said that last night on the show. If so, that lineup is very possible

They probably tuned into KSDK to hear the good news with the rest of us.

I wasn't too optimistic until TheOne chimed in. He doesn't post very often, but he's really the only real insider on this board. When he posts, you have to listen.

Not landing McKissic was diappointing, but this is way better. I think Jordan is first recruit I recall to be un-tooled. Welcome home JN!

[brianstl]

I wonder what is on Caleb Love's mind these days.  Not saying there is a chance he is coming to SLU.  I just wouldn't be shocked with Roy leaving and the way his whole season went down if he considers heading transferring.
