I said it earlier in this thread, but Chaz and McKneely are pretty similar into terms of shooters. Quick release, high% shooters. Lanier is more athletic and probably a better defender. McKneely is a better passer. Leading the ACC in 3-pt% on high volume is nothing to dismiss. He likely won't be the impact player Lanier was, but hopefully because he isn't our primary scoring option. A better shooting senior Jordan Gainey level impact is a safe barometer.

Then he could be an important piece to the puzzle.

On the Disney conversation...Took most of my kids and grandkids just a few years back. Had a good time. Way too expensive. In no hurry to go back, but glad we did it.

My most important question is of all of the guys we have contacted or are interested in, who would be our go to guy in terms of scoring?

Let’s just randomly say we land
Gillespie
McKneely
Atwell
Alvaro


You’d probably be looking at one of the more evenly distributed scoring teams we’ve had. I’d say most of these guys will average 11-14ppg….if I had to guess. These guys were the go to guys at their previous school, probably wouldn’t be the case here.

Wouldn’t be a team where one guy averages 15-17ppg and the rest average 6-11.

Freeman coming off the bench would provide a scoring spark as well, imo.

Tennessee has been trying VERY hard there, when he entered his group mostly had eyes on Louisville and UNC but Tennessee hasn’t quit trying, they really like him.

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).

If they can get a guy they want, expect 1 big to also be added.

1 big, 1 stretch 4, & the rest will be guards

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

I logged in for the first time in years just to reply to this. I write about Disney for a living. If there's any advice you'd like to improve your trip, I'm glad to help.

I think this staff values versatility so much.

Guys in the know, if McNeely, Atwell, and Wilkerson are available, do we take more than one?
