Jank just said we will add one, maybe two more to this class. I was expecting one but not two. Very interesting.

William Douglas scored 16 points in his 2nd game back from injury.

If we went the grad-transfer route for one I could see us adding a Transfer or another HS recruit. Haven't heard anything about us going after many 2017 recruits right now. Might wait for a late bloomer or a late Charlie Moore or Romello White situation to happen. [*]

Doesnt surprise me. When I asked the other night, I was actually told they weren't surewed have any at all to offer in '18. That means no attrition, load up now. Waterbug guard and grad transfer big. If none of that matriculated, best available w length

He seemed dead set in signing one or two, like we already have them in our crosshairs and are just waiting to fire away. I'd guess one grad/juco and one under the radar frosh.

Already thrilled about this class. Obviously don't want to throw a ship to just anyone but another quality player or two would be gravy.

Interesting. That wouldn't be a bad strategy. Love the grad transfer big idea. That seems to be the consensus right now. I'm sure they have a few potential targets, but you never know who will come onto the grad-transfer market, for sure, until after the season. Would think we would be a real popular destination for a grad-transfer. Good school, tons of potential PT, in Dallas, and a very competitive team.

I would rather us wait and try to get a Charlie Moore type player (if one comes available) than take an under the radar guy. However, both Malachi Flynn and Michael Weathers are both having big freshman years they were under the radar guys we considered late last year. Hoopman have you heard any names or just looking around still?

They know exactly who they want on grad transfer market, just need to make sure they're available. It's a wait and see, but they definitely have a short list. As far as guards, big time producing, smaller guards, are a dime a dozen, see Flynn and Weathers. A kid I personally love, who they are very aware of is KJ Fitzgerald. He just had an unofficial to Kansas last week. Some interesting names in rumor circles this week, but both have a lot of questions surrounding them.

KJ's Jr year mixtape...kid is not short on confidence.

Has the ball on a string and looks to have great vision.

Like hearing they have a short list for grad-transfers. I really like KJ's tape. Hoop what is the deal with why he doesn't have many offers? I see a few, but most of them seem to be older. Were a few off the rumor names exciting?

KJ's reel is impressive. Nice left hand too.

Isn't that putting a lot of our eggs in one basket? Is this a reaction to our 6.2 man rotation? I guess if someone is a major bust you can get them to transfer and sign a 2018 prospect.

Are the grad transfer "targets" going to generate a buzz if it happens?

If we do sign another freshman I would hope we are super patient and wait for someone really good to fall through. If not save it for next year. We could be selective here as we already look like we are going to be much deeper next year
