ellitor 33,104 Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 Per a post elsewhere. Quote Quincy Olivari, Grad transfer from Rice meeting with BP today. 2x all conference, averaged 18.7ppg last year & is Rice’s all time leader in 3pm. 6’3 guard played HS ball in Atlanta Also Hoke added in QO might be one of the only legitimate transfers AU is after right now. Hearing transfers need to be a three and D guy. Also belives there were some concerns about Denver Jones’ defense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellitor 33,104 Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 Interesting take from JHead FWIW Quote Add Olivari just by himself to this past season’s team and we win at least 3 - 4 more regular season games and we’re likely a Sweet 16 team. As of today he’s possibly the best fit to solve our hole at the 2 that we’ve had for the last two years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardin Drake 1,834 Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 His career 3 pt. percentage is 38%. I'm sold. Sounds like the one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Girard in the latter half of his career is near a 40% 3pt shooter. Don't know how his defense is. Edited March 28, 2023 by KansasTiger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roster spots are TBD. Right now there is only 1 open spot. Can't really go hard after other guys til Wen, Tre, KD, Flan, Traore, & Stretch decided wht they want to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUBwins 10,075 Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Going forward, if a player recovers from injury (thought I saw where Chance was ready physically), play the man instead of worried about development once you start SEC play. Essentially did the same with our shooter that went to Tennesee. I know he is more debatable but still. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casatiger 514 Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 I would have expected names like KD and Chris Moore to be out not last year's recruits. Very uneasy about where this is going. I heard a player talking about how everyone has the opportunity to come back except zep and I thought no way that happens after watching this team and its shortcomings(pardon the pun). This team was nearly unwatchable. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play the best players. If the 5 star guys aren’t it, and want to transfer, then bon voyage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a good idea to play someone who lost his confidence in his game or body. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think a 20 win team where we made another NCAAT was unwatchable, which was rare for us before Bruce, then I suggest to never watch a Tony Barbee coached AU team. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
