Hmmm...interesting. Is Alexander pondering a transfer maybe?

The way they are recruiting the 2018 kids one would think so. He also visited here on 1-3 this year. So apparently we have been tracking hin for a while

I hope not. His upside is still promising.

I agree, but we have brought in a whole lot of competition and are looking at others apparently. Just connecting the dots as to what it could mean.

I agree. But also Alexander has kind of become my favorite player to root for. I see flashes of him being really good. Not great. Ive always had a tendency to root for the underdog players.

It takes longer for a big to develop so if you are looking to take one player in 2018 without any glaring position of immediate need I would think talking a big makes sense. Doesn't have to mean a player is leaving IMO.

 

[cwbytruckers]

Thought we didnt have any open 2018 spots?

We don't but a heck of a lot of offers

So how do we add a player in the 2018 class without one leaving?

We don't but I don't think it matters with who we are targeting unless it's a mass Exit. An 18 addition doesn't have to plug a hole imo

The last 2017 signee could be a grad transfer.

Christian Lorng btw, dude is a man child...playing with Louisville Magic AAU, reminds me of the kinda guys Louisville has pursued with Pitino. Gotta wonder if having Pons on the squad will help at all and if the offer has anything to do with Barnes & Schwartz recent trip to France.

I agree with that, just saying that in order to sign someone that someone does have to leave, you said "it doesn't mean a player is leaving".

I misspoke as I didn't mean it that way. My mistake
