Looks about right. Nothing done yet, but read today that UCLA is trending heavy for Dailey.I made this from the list you all shared here on the page... I included their class for next season instead of their current class since the season is over. Does this list look accurate??? I did not include the guys that were not in bold because you said they just had connections but no real contact yet. Go VOLS
I think ZZ & Aidoo obviously weren’t themselves. For ZZ, his shooting struggles could’ve easily have been a combo of things; Chasing a very quick and exceptional PG around, being under the weather, and playing too many minutes in general. But I personally think his struggles tends to be when he makes poor decisions with his shot selection. Often he takes rushed shots with no one even close to rebounding position and my least favorite is when he (Knecht also) would take unnecessary 3’s early in shot, contested, or very deep when we are up double digits! (see PU or TX games). Miss a few of those and the rim looks smaller. I LOVE the kid and his hustle but I hope he keeps getting smarter with his shot choices.
Agree. One of my favorite players on the team. Awaka really deserves a chance to start in my opinion. He will never be a stretch 4 but the guy is a horse with his back to the basketball and shows no fear. Struggles against length but who doesn't. I think he can expand his game to 15 ft at the FT line and on the baseline and become a very good, consistent college player.
We need 2 scorers to replace Knecht or one highly efficient "go to" scorer and hope guys like Carr can get to double figures or we will struggle again in the halfcourt. Heck Knecht may have been the most versatile scorer UT has had ever and conventional wisdom was that his presence would help Vescovi. Unfortunately, that didn't happen.
We need to do what is necessary to keep both. These are multi-year guys who are part of our culture and both have improved. Another year with more coaching, both will take another step in my opinion. I think Awaka can consistently be a horse on the block if given enough touches and he plays a bit smarter with respect to fouls.
The 6'9" center is from the class of 2025 and would not play next season. When Knecht was his age as a junior in high school he was like 6'1". Guys grown and Brown could easily get an inch or two taller. Plus he's a mobile big who has good overall size. That's why we are going hard after him because he would come into a team that has Jonas Aidoo leaving.
