Well, we apparently have over half the roster to fill, before we even get started. Post any known targets here. Pretty good class locally, are we still working on Zobrist and the kid from Central?

Hard to recruit when the majority of the kids you go after are already playing for someone else. Going after HS players becomes surgical.

You’re basically going to have to recruit/re-recruit 10-13 spots every year going forward. Heck, look at Illinois, and they were an Elite 8 team. There’s really no point in consternation over how many spots you might have to fill next season, because it’s going to be Groundhog’s Day.

Agree and I'd bet there will be a few changes in the years to come because this constant turnover of rosters will hinder the product and coaches are going to start burning out on the recruiting trail.

I’ve been out of town for a few weeks for weddings and vacations, but can compile a decent list of 2025 recruits shortly. There has been a lot of contact so far with our coaches and specifically high school and prep recruits - many local.

I like Clemmons size- listed at 6'10 220, looks like he could add 15 pounds to that and still be effective inside and on perimeter.

He seems like a great player to target. youtu.be/0RLmRXRQyM4?feature=shared

Better get going a lit of holes to fill. This will be the case every year until the NCAA addresses the portal and NIL contracts. The (F)ing new normal.

I love the wording of Goode's tweet. Is he a good one? Hard to say. Other offers are all of the mid-major variety.

Nothing about NIL is changing the landscape of where players end up. Low major talents will end up at low major schools. Mids - to - mids. It’s the same as it always has been for the last 50 years.
