If we can land him I won’t be upset at all, ideally would like to still see a true 5 added to him, but if you can take Gurley now you do it.

If we could swing Dante and Gurley to go with Powell that would be a dream scenario. With Dante’s connections to Clark, Chandler, and also seems to be friends with Nkamhoua I like our chances if he hits the portal. Would give us a really well rounded team next season.

Looks like Liam Robbins is basically what you’d imagine would be the best case scenario for what Drew Pembers potential could be, back when he was coming out of high school. If Barnes liked his potential then, maybe this is a perfect add for what Barnes wants to do w this team.

After landing Powell, making the assumption that we land BHH and a transfer big, do we still think Barnes would target Key? He doesn't seem like a "can't miss" player, IMO, and if you look at the roster of the anticipated rotation, where do his minutes come from?

Starting Lineup
Chandler
Powell
JJJ
BHH
Fulky

Rotation
Vescovi
Bailey
Maschack
Transfer Big Man
ORN

That's 10-players with 6 of them being guards. I would assume Key wants to get somewhere with big minutes. Doesn't seem like he'd get that here.

I don’t think Key is going to demand big minutes, I could be wrong but I see him as wanting to provide experience and leadership on a winning team and go dancing. I would handle BHH as the final spot, if you miss you hold the spot open for maybe a mid year could coming available. So without BHH...

Chandler/Key
Vescovi/Mashack
Powell/Bailey/QDE
James/Gurley/ORN
Fulky/Plavsic/Anosike/Tamba

Yeah that starting 5 seems more likely, I feel like entering his 3rd year and already being one of the top minute guys from the last two seasons that it'll be hard for Vescovi to get bumped out of the starting lineup (at least to open the season). I also don't know if we see BHH and Fulky both start even if we do land BHH.

BHH and Fulky will 100% both start if they are both on this roster. It might not be game 1, but after a few games to get adjusted to Barnes’ system and style you’ll see something similar to what happened with Springer and Johnson, BHH will work his way into the starting lineup.

And Fulky isn’t coming back to be a player off the bench.

Technically he was a grad transfer, assuming he wants to play another year not sure why he doesn't want to stay at Wake though. Maybe he wants a shot at the tournament and doesn't think they'll be there?

Nope like 16 minutes a game, so he may just want to head to a smaller school and get more minutes. He only went to Wake cause the ETSU coach/staff he had committed to was heading there.

Would be kinda cool if a few of the Vols transferring went to ETSU and helped Oliver get things going there in his first year.
