You’re trying to argue that a kid that’s been to 4 schools is any different than a kid that’s gonna be going on his 3rd. There’s outside factors tbh at contribute to this…you know coaches leaving..

Anyways, what’s the point? Both are going to go to a new school and put numbers just as good as they did this season.

Ryan dropped 16ppg the last two seasons and I’d say he will do it again next season.

I’m trying to figure out how they differ in any way other than one playing at one extra school because of a coaching change

Not as high on McNeely as others seem to be. Fine player, doesn’t move the needle.

Just my opinion & I trust the staff and their evals, I’ve just never seen “takes you to the next-level” from him.

Flame away

He’s a really good shooter and disciplined defender. Hes not nearly as athletic as our typical defender and that bothers me. He’s not the next Knecht or Lanier, but having that three percentage in our arsenal is not something you say no to.

I’m messing with you, shouldn’t you be enjoying Disney with the family?

To me Gillespie is a bit different because had we had a spot he would’ve been here last year and it would be 2 schools, Conwell wasn’t going back to home with his 3rd transfer, with that said if he follows Miller to Texas that’s more understandable and not simply just 4 in 4 where the kids keeps chasing a bag.

Disney was boring. Way too many people for my liking.

We’ve been shopping, which I find more entertaining since I don’t need to fight people for personal space. I will never go back

He'd be a solid addition, but certainly not a game changer. I do wonder with Louisville and UNC in play, that NIL is a driving force here. Given this will be his senior year and he doesn't have NBA prospects. Time to cash in for him is now.

He’s 1/3 players at a HM to make 100+ 3’s, the other 2 are Chaz Lanier and LJ Cryer, that’s pretty good company. Fwiw he also shoots a higher percentage than Lanier, the guy that just notched the best 3pt shooting season in Tennessee history.

Mckneely definitely isn’t the best defender, but neither is Chaz or DK. If we can surround him with a group who is great defensively it shouldn’t be too big of a deal hopefully

I mean, we have at least 6 slots open for next year’s roster right now and I doubt we get a single additional high school commit. If a guy who is widely considered a Top 10 transfer wants to fill one of those 6 spots, why say no? Bring me all the elite shooters. Our post is pretty much complete for next year (Phillips/Estrella/Okpara/Brown).

Only concern there is that the guys who have made this a great defensive group will be gone next year.

Ironically, I said similar about Disney 25 years ago. Don’t think even my grandkids could talk me into going there again.
