Recruiting philosophy?????????? More like where to get more $$$$$$$$ for NIL.

People need to wake up. We are in a completely different world. Recruiting 4&5 stars is now largely transactional.
Preseason Rankin's are bs, at best!

In football too, as Arizona fans have learned the hard way this year....

So, looks like we're in "rebuilding" mode, one we're not very familiar with.

Townsend caught my ire. That is twice in transition he didn’t hustle back. It’s BS and Lloyd is soft as shit. Miller would have yanked all 5 of them. This is straight up dogshit

He also didn’t hedge or switch on the curl cut on their three.

Is there evidence we don’t have enough NIL for basketball?
Yes.

Ballo leaving for $$$$
Not competitive for any of the top transfers in the portal
We lost a recruit to Baylor because they had more $$$$
I'm afraid we will lose Peat/Burries this year due to this issue. asu is offering more money to Peat than we can offer.

TMac/Noah had to give up some of their NIL$ so their team mates could get some

I think the most telling stat is that we only have 10 assists - too much "creating-your-own-shot" offense...

Plus , Awaka, Krivas & Veesaar are less than Ballo and one random backup center.

This is our preview to Big12 conference play.

Better get used to it.

Yes, exactly.

Nice 3 to tie it up

And lots of critical D

West Virginia is cursed with OT games. lol

Going to be another loss to a +.500 P4 team. That’s going to be 6 in a row I think.

Tommy’s potentially best defensive team hasn’t got a stop in OT.

Tommy looked like he was vacationing in the Bahamas on ty he sideline. No wonder the Cats are so soft. I don't miss Miller but I miss his intensity

Agree

How many miles did Lute have the players run at the start of every practice?

Are Lloyd’s practices valuable to preparing for games? Did his previous group of players have more self motivation?

Might be helpful if our 7 footers had at least 1 fieldgoal.
