RJ Barrett is going to be a monster in college. He basically singlehandedly took down the US team this summer.HiCat wrote:Arizona basketball recruiting: R.J. Barrett reclassifies to 2018

Dotson/Grimes will be at KU.
The opposite, two 5*s PGs (but I guess Brandon Williams lost his 5* after his injury).CalStateTempe wrote:Don't tell me we are going to miss on another 5*PG.

Nah, just stealing the kid's shine before his announcement isn't a good look. I'm fine with Dotson's dad telling him that, but you couldn't wait 5 hours to let the kid have his moment and then report that?CalStateTempe wrote:Will this affect the Q announcement?

Definitely going to need more, i would say we have 9 scholarship players now:ChooChooCat wrote:Yep.NYCat wrote:Bol Bol? a SF?
Add a transfer to the mix though is my guess. The whole starting lineup, Denny, and Pinder are all gone after this year, gonna need an extra guy or 2 for depth.
Akot is most certainly our 6th man this year, but I'd bet hard money he stays another year and goes in high lotto in a much weaker draft in 2019. Either way yeah we add a wing, hopefully (likely) Bol, and I'd add a sit a year transfer (maybe 2). After you laid out the entire lineup we actually have great coverage at every position with just 11 active players, we probably won't need another active guy. I could see the possibility of another guy who you take in and redshirt (maybe Sam Froling), but that's it.baycat93 wrote:Definitely going to need more, i would say we have 9 scholarship players now:ChooChooCat wrote:Yep.NYCat wrote:Bol Bol? a SF?

1 Brandon Williams 6'1" 165 Fr
1 Jhavon Quinerly 6'0" 170 Fr
1/2 Alex Barcello 6'2 190 So
2/3 Dylan Smith 6'5" 200 Rs Jr
2/3 Brandon Randolph 6'6"180 So
3/4 Emmanuel Akot 6'7" 190 S0
4/3 Ira Lee 6'7" 235 So
4 Shareef O'Neil 6'9"200 Fr
5 Chase Jeter 6'10 240 RsJr
and Akot may not be a lock if he pushes his way into time this year.

Agreed. Who is more likely? Just seems like Liddell is more signable.ChooChooCat wrote:I'll take Little over Liddell if I have a choice.baycat93 wrote:

Don't know at the moment, still real early for Little. I'm not sure where we stand with Liddell at the moment either. I do know however that Little is absolutely the priority at the wing spot for us at the moment as he should be. We'll see what happens. At the moment I'd bet it's between us and UNC for Little.baycat93 wrote:Agreed. Who is more likely?

Since RJ Barrett reclassified to 2018, do we any chance with him?ChooChooCat wrote:Don't know at the moment, still real early for Little.

If Akot stays, we have a good passer to play forward and can drop Williams and Quinerly together in the backcourt. That's three excellent distributors to get the ball flowing. If we played small with Randolph and O'Neal added to that mix, that's 5 athletic guys who can shoot the 3, are unselfish and are still fairly long.ASUHATER! wrote:Awesome. Well be extremely young next season (no scholarship seniors by my count) but will still be insanely talented.
Why not get real greedy and go get Barrett or Reddish instead. I know Reddish is a long shot but we have pulled guys from that area before (RHJ) as it's Miller fam stomping grounds and Barrett did say we are recruiting him the hardest.ChooChooCat wrote:I'll take Little over Liddell if I have a choice.baycat93 wrote:
