Has Ashworth's status been confirmed?
On court that is a heck of a pickup to replace Alexander. Offensively you could argue Pop is better, though Alexander is better defensively.
BTW:
Some reporting Duke has reached out to Richmond and Poplar.
Has Ashworth's status been confirmed?
Has 4 years of eligibility remaining. Redshirted last season
Getting a guy who was outside the top 100 and then redshirted is your sign that their NIL is not as bad as it seems?Really looks like SH NIL situation is not as bad as it seems. Fanta even mentioned they put a good offer out to Richmond but couldn't match what the top schools can. Do think they will be surprisingly decent with Holloway at the helm
The fact that they got Scotty Middleton and that Fanta reported they gave Kadary a good offer is my sign that their NIL is not as bad as it seemsGetting a guy who was outside the top 100 and then redshirted is your sign that their NIL is not as bad as it seems?
Middleton was a good pickup, but again, "reportedly giving a good offer" to a guy that was clearly worth more than they could offer isn't very convincing. If you've got a potential All-American and you can't get in the ballpark enough and he leaves, and then you lose your other 2 returning starters....The fact that they got Scotty Middleton and that Fanta reported they gave Kadary a good offer is my sign that their NIL is not as bad as it seems
He said he didn't want to get transfers last season, I guess he is sticking to it.In other news, Marquette is the only team I can think of that has neither gained nor lost a single player in the portal.
With Kolek to the NBA, if the season started today, all 12 of their scholarship players would be homegrown picks Shaka Smart added out of HS.
Interesting to see how that plays out for him. He could holler squad with 1-2 smart transfersHe said he didn't want to get transfers last season, I guess he is sticking to it.
Villanova’s second Big 5 transfer addition. Got a chance to watch Brickus live this past season when La Salle beat Fordham. Shared lead guard duties with Khalil Brantley.
Averaged 14p, 5a, 40 3P%, 86 FT% last season. A tough 5’11 205 guard who can play both on- an off-ball as I can see him playing well alongside Mark Armstrong.
Foolish, putting his team at disadvantageInteresting to see how that plays out for him. He could holler squad with 1-2 smart transfers
No way in hell nova going 0-fer in the Big 5 next season!If you can't beat them, get them to join you apparently.
Eh, they’ve been pretty good with their strategy the past 2 years. Especially if they aren’t losing anyone.Foolish, putting his team at disadvantage
Pretty easy with kolek and oso. This is where the rubber meets the road. Nit or bustEh, they’ve been pretty good with their strategy the past 2 years. Especially if they aren’t losing anyone.
They're losing their 2 of their 3 best playersEh, they’ve been pretty good with their strategy the past 2 years. Especially if they aren’t losing anyone.
