It is - he is the transfer we currently have the best shot with and this tweet was previously buried in that 40 page thread.Good thing we have a new thread for this......
Why, do you not want a career 40% 3 point shooter from a power conference with 217 career 3s made at SG?Why do we need this guy to compete for minutes with Cole, Gaffney, and Diggins?
He will play off the ball and provides what we desperately need in shooting.Why do we need this guy to compete for minutes with Cole, Gaffney, and Diggins?
He's going to play at the 2 or 3. And he would instantly be out best outside shooterWhy do we need this guy to compete for minutes with Cole, Gaffney, and Diggins?

Maybe you should ask yourself that questionWhy do we need this guy to compete for minutes with Cole, Gaffney, and Diggins?
That’s the only transfer I’d personally would like us to take right now is a lights out shooter. Don’t want anyone else coming in to mess with the development of our freshmen. Think Martin slowed AJ’s development this year and I’m not completely sure if it was worth it seeing how he performed at the end of the season. Would rather give those shots and minutes to develop AJ.

Who says we have the best shot with him?It is - he is the transfer we currently have the best shot with and this tweet was previously buried in that 40 page thread.
I didn’t mean to have that read as if we lead, just from all the guys we’ve been connected to he is the furthest along in his “recruitment” with mutual interest (except for the transfers we reached out to and already picked a school) and going by our insiders the staff is all in. Think this guy deserves his own thread.Who says we have the best shot with him?
any transfer that has a zoom call scheduled with staff gets their own threadWho says we have the best shot with him?

the phrase "recruited over" doesnt apply to upperclassmen anyways, it's used way too broadly. the only circumstance it should apply to is when a coach signs a better prospect at the same position, in the same or subsequent class, as an underclassmanGonna be honest, Gaff and Cole don't deserve to walk in to 20+ mpg next year.
Cole proved more worthy and useful than Gaff but I have no problem over recruiting over either and opening up competition.

there is no dictionary definition...but if you've had 2 or 3 years to prove yourself and you arent getting it done then you arent being recruited over you just arent very good. by contrast if we brought in a 5* SG and SF this summer then hawkins and aj would both have been recruited over because aj barely given a shot and hawkins none at all so he would probably just decommit.Okay. Have it your way. Even though according to the dictionary you are wrong in your understanding of the phrase recruited over.
They're still recruiting players who can immediately supplant returning starters.
