Yes but there are others that are more secretive

I just need Rowan Brumbaugh and Malik Mack in the portal and for uva to pursue them and maybe keep cofie if we can and the rest will fall in place however

I have been assuming there are several we aren’t aware of at the moment. Zion Stanford came out of nowhere, and he had already visited lol.

I just don’t know when to expect those to bear fruit or how to judge the new coaching staff. Davidson is the only whiff we know of so far, have there been a half dozen others and it’s worse than we know?

I missed this guy being in the portal. That’s a shame.

*I don’t find anything he’s saying to be particularly objectionable, makes sense why Colvin would want a different role/system

System is #1 for most players and families - assuming money is there.
That’s the one concern I have with Odom is he really doesn’t have one to lean on in recruiting…
He’s gotta convince dudes and dawgs to come and tell them he will build around them.

Miami got Tre Donaldson, having a nice portal so far. I liked it when they sucked

Some probably in the 2nd wave post national title.

He doesn’t has as rigid a system as Bennett but he absolutely has a ā€œsystemā€. Base concepts that have been with him since UMBC (4-5 out perimeter offense with emphasis on drive and kick action, heavy on pick-and-roll sets, etc). He’s adapted more to his personnel than other coaches, particularly with how he’s varied in his off-ball screening actions, but he has a very clear identity on offense that is both modern and analytics driven. I think if anything that flexibility should benefit him in recruiting

Washington has a TON of money. They can offer bags to whomever they want.

Speaking of which the pg that Arvin told the Hokies was basically done just committed to UW. Also the ND wing they slid in first visit also looks to be out of their league now. So, whoops

Yeah idk how Arvin keeps his job on that board. He is wrong more often than he’s right.

He’s wrong SO often it’s actually insane. Why post that in the first place and get the fans expecting a commit. Made it seem imminent.
