2023 Off-Season Basketball - Outside UVa

I also wonder if the ND optimism is folks being high on the new coaching staff they’ve brought in without necessarily realizing where the roster is currently at.

Maybe, but I think it’s more of a snap judgment thing for most people.

He’s never transferring here (I mean he never was but it was always fun to think what if/His high school sweetheart is also at Kentucky)

But he could instead play in a scrimmage for 30 minutes after a day’s practice and live forever through 40 second choppy cut Instagram highlights

Cool. Prefer him to do it at Bama and not UNC.

That’s not going to happen. Teams never go big even the hype talk is around that.

They will go small and play Gran Nelson at the 5. Neither Grant nor Jarin can guard on the perimeter.

We say this out of season and then complain when the ACC gets 5 bids and no 1 seeds in season

You’re sticking to your Jarin hate, come hell or high water.

Props for that.

But he’s going to be a very good player — and we wanted him badly.

Oh Im absolutely biased. But I dont think acknowledging the reality that they aren’t going to play slow feet Grant Nelson at the 3 is hating. He’ll be like a poor man’s Jay Huff for them.

Jarin is skilled but not very aggressive. I think the phrase I saw elsewhere of Kodyitis is very applicable. He was pretty soft in every team united game I watched. Also Tony never went down to watch Jarin in person at his school so I dont think he was that invested. The blurb above doesn’t change my opinion. I also am a huge Cofie fan, and Jemison is a guy who could impact the game right away in the way Dunn did if we land him

For his sake he better go pro this year because Bama might bring in both Asa Newell and Derrion Reid in 2024. And whatever transfers their money can buy.

Jarin always looked soft, but he also looked like if he hits, he’ll hit. I won’t take it on Oats’s say so, but it is interesting. Let’s get this season tipped off already.

Seemed to have a bit of an aggro rep. His teams pushed the envelope. Not that things mean he would hit and run…

I kinda want to see a cop in full uniform play someone in any form of basketball now.
