I really wanted him as a HS recruit but choosing Louisville is a little bit of a caution sign for me. Still, he fits the attributes that seem to work for us as an athlete, the question will be his character and approach to the game.
Wisconsin native alert. Milwaukee actually, assume Marquette will be all over him.

Hes rumored to be heading to Iowa according to Wisconsin boards from a few weeks ago.

Yeah, I think his ideal role is more frontcourt than wing if that makes sense. To give an example, Dunn-Withers with three ball handlers works, but Dunn-Withers-Big Man probably doesnāt unless one of them makes a big leap as ball handler. Heās a little light on defensive stats, but Keyās defensive productivity increased at UVA, so perhaps Louisvilleās general bad vibes are suppresssing his defensive contributions.

I think Withers has some upside but my bet is that he ends up at NC State. Seems like a perfect match, unfortunately.
Maybe Ed Cooley can get him to Georgetown instead. I would expect Cooley to have a big portal year.

āFor me I have new schools reaching out everyday. So far UMass, URI, Richmond, UVA, Wake Forest are among some of the schools who reach out to me a lot and I just got off the phone with Georgia. My recruitment has been all over the place from mid major to high major programs.ā

Not sure of the fit here, but sounds like a mature dude from that interview. Knows who he is and what he needs.
He would be great if he wasnāt just a one year rental. But I donāt hate the idea of having him starting at the 5 with Reece, Isaac, Armaan, and Isaac
Or even crazier - Reece, Isaac, Taine, Traudt, Minor

I know we need rim protections and he can do some, but Iām really warming up to this type of 5. Tough defender and rebounder, has some post game that will draw doubles. Basically I want a bouncy Gill. As said, paired w Traudt at the 4 that would be ideal.

Iād much rather get a transfer portal kid with 3 years. Iām all in on Beagle.
Nope. 3 years would make it very difficult recruiting 24 bigs and gets in the way of Buchanan.

Would much prefer Minor to Beagle. Only bring him in for one year and he offers a different skillset to every other big we currently have.

I do wish Beagle had a better 3 point percentage. I love spreading the floor.
Almost no highlights of him back to the basket. All are in transition or pick nā roll.

Wait is Merrimack the team that couldnāt qualify for the NCAA tournament despite winning their conference tournament? So they sent FDU as runner up

If we canāt get Kadin to stay (pls stay Kadin) and Armaan also bounces for gleague/overseas
Reece, McKneely, Dunn shooting open 3s, Minor, Traudt
Bench: Dante Gertrude Bond Withers (sell him Trey Murphy 2 year development plan hard and even have Murphy hit him up).

I seriously doubt it. Dual is basically a non shooter.

Iād imagine it would be the same reasoning if Mulready reopens hit recruitment as well.
