HoosierPal Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Give me KJ Williams. 6'10" 245 lb. His game goes out to 15+ feet. 18.0/8.4. 21 blocks, 24 assists. 33% from the arc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ACE Posted March 31, 2022 Author Share Posted March 31, 2022 Eric Williams Jr. did not play at Oregon with Franco, but they crossed paths. Williams was sitting out his transfer year (remember those days) during Franco's sophomore season, so hopefully they have some kind of connection and Williams is very familiar with having success at Chaifetz. The recruiting pitch is easy, come and play in the building where you had your career scoring high and play with the PG who led the country in assists.

He's probably the top big man target of high majors right now. We would be a transfer down. Give me two years of David Skogman shooting 55% from the field, 80% from the line, no foul problems and call it a day. Big enough to back up Okoro, shoots it well enough from the perimeter to play alongside him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Everyone in the country wants K.J. Williams. He's probably a top-3 transfer currently available. A10Ref likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A10Ref Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 Williams would fit perfectly. He'd be the only 3-4 that can actually play the 4 confidently. Perkins/TJ/Fred/etc. have less size than Williams (at least with the eye test). If we get williams, still need a few 4-5s still and a 1.

ACE Posted March 31, 2022 Author Share Posted March 31, 2022 Isabell really likes SLU and still follows the program closely. He's a good hype man on social media. I remember the battle he had with Williams. Tramaine Isabell @oTrillMaine · 22m This would be a HUGE get!! I think we’d be favorites to win the league with a guy of that talent/athleticism joining a strong and veteran backcourt of Perk , Yuri, Fred, & Gibson. After a 39/40 pt duel lol we still keep in contact.. maybe I should hit him up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have one main PG, and 3 cg who will handle need be. Of those, Courtney handles it less than the other 2. I would not, by any stretch consider him a PG this year. He used to handle the point more, but not anymore. I’m not sure mizzou will want to rely on a guy who hasn’t played point in a while. Who knows.

Pistol Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Here's a guy SLU recruited back in 2019: Picked St. Bonaventure, then went to a JUCO, then to MVSU. Leading scorer this season for a horrible team that finished last in the SWAC. Or at least he was for the first half of the season - he only played once after 1/8 and it was a 2-minute appearance in late February. Looks like he got hurt and then more or less decided not to play anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheA_Bomb Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Ramey move is surprising me. At Texas Marcus Carr (primary PG) is likely gone. A. Jones (SG) is gone. Devin Askew (UK) transfer did emerge late in the year as a solid ball handler. 247 staff thinks Ramey is headed somewhere to be a primary PG. SLU already has that but damn Ramey is so good and he would immediately be the best defender in the conference. Ramey scored 9.8 points, grabbed 3.5 rebounds, and dished out 1.8 per game while shooting nearly 40 percent from the field. I thought he was good with Beard but maybe with Askew emergence and Arterio Morris #2 PG in the nation coming in he felt he wouldn't get his shot at PG. I'd welcome him with open arms. When big names were hinted at a few days ago I was hoping Ramey but honestly thought he was staying as there have been no whispers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might be the best coach in the game right now, but I think He is sort of like playing for Majerus in some ways. It isn’t for everyone.
