Huge. Can’t wait to see what he does on campus

Yeah but the North Texas crystal ball was today. The one to Houston was from back in September.

The other North Shore safety, Evan Jackson, did.

Ja’michael Brown didn’t commit to us as a WR. It’s even worse. He committed to us, and played, for basketball.

As it pertains to us, Brune worked there. Since he left we don’t have anyone on the inside, so to speak.

6’2” 180 lb QB from Eaton High School. Also holds an offer from Rice. Threw for 16 TDs against 11 INTs with 1,612 passing yards. Added 14 rushing TDs and 962 rushing yards. Assuming this is a QB offer, this is the new staff’s first 2024 QB offer. https://247sports.com/player/noah-lugo-46134814/

Rubin’s shot looks like it has a hitch in it this season. Either that or he brings his shooting elbow further away from his vertical plane and it just looks ugly. Regardless, 9-43 on the season from deep speaks for itself.

Wish we’d give Christian Moore some run. He might be the most pure PG on this roster and has shot the ball well in his limited opportunities. I get Mccasland needs to trust his guys defensively before he gives them minutes, but with the turnovers piling up it seems Moore’s abilities could help with some of our issues, as well as fatigue.

Yes. Perry does for sure. Huntsberry is a little confusing to me on how he still has a year remaining but he is listed as a Senior, not a “5th” or “6th” like the other guys out of eligibility.

Guard listed as a Junior technically has 3 more years of eligibility left after this season due to COVID year and presumably taking a redshirt for this season. Should make it 4 scholarships opening up for this offseason (Eady, Martinez, Browne, Zephir), with 1 already filled by signee Alex Cotton.

It was a tough position but I tend to agree. Football was probably most effected so it made more sense there than basketball, for example.

Right but my point is, why should the player be seen as opting out of their scholarship for the remainder of the school year that they already fulfilled their full obligation of participating in their season? Why should a basketball player who enters the portal after their season finishes in March be granted their scholarship for both semesters while a football player who also played their entire season that school year be only given one semester or scholarship?

It absolutely has muddied things up in ways people still aren’t fully accounting for. This whole “transfer portal surplus” everyone likes to mention is primarily due to 6 classes of high school graduates all having college eligibility at once where it traditionally has only been 5. 2025 is the last season that there will be 6 classes of players with eligibility. That’s the last year that players who had their eligibility frozen in 2020 will still have eligibility. 2020 freshmen were still true freshmen in 2021, eligibility-wise. By 2025 they will be redshirt seniors, along with the 2021 HS graduating class who were the first to not receive an extra year due to the Covid eligibility freeze.

It’s not. Scholarships are renewed based on academic school years. You participate for the full season of your team’s sport that academic school year, you get the scholarship for that full academic school year. Your sport ending earlier than others does not mean you didn’t fulfill your full obligation to your sport’s season that school year.

Even if the analogy isn’t a one-to-one match in that area, we still are part of the perception of the “company” (program). That’s just a difference between sports programs and standard companies. The consumers are part of the perception of the program in ways that the consumers of a standard company are not.

But why should a fall athlete who enters the portal after the season only get one semester of the school year covered while a basketball player who enters the portal after the season gets both semesters covered? Both players fulfilled the same obligation to the lie sport for the academic school year in question.

Why? He completed the full season of obligation to his sport this academic school year. Should fall sport athletes only be guaranteed a semester of scholarship while spring sport athletes get a full year?

He played 4 years here and there was a coaching change. If not for COVID he would’ve finished his career here. Also, if we want to talk about being subject to grown up treatment, let’s say you were hired by someone at a company and worked for them for 4 years, then they got fired, and then you decided to leave too. What if everyone at your company was bad mouthing/cold shouldering you on your way out? Knowing you gave your company your best foot forward and decided to leave based on factors out of your control, what would be the lasting taste in your mouth on the company? How would that reflect on the company and your likelihood to recommend the company to others? Everyone acting like the players leaving deserve some less than favorable treatment aren’t exactly protecting their school in the way they think they are. I’d say the opposite, in fact.

He has come up clutch at the end of big games for us plenty. Just not going to happen every time. Some things to work on but if they beat us three times in one season, they’ll have earned. Personally, I like our chances in March.

Good half. We need to switch things up with Perry. They are sitting on his step back 3s so he’s driving, which seems to be what they want him to do. He’s not great at getting to the rim and he isn’t a great creator for others off the bounce. Hope to see us let Jones and Huntsberry create more and run some off-ball actions to spring Perry. We need him doing what he does best, and they aren’t letting him do it when he has the ball in his hands.

Yeah it’s crazy. 6 guys with significant starting experiences who have eligibility remaining and yet this has been by far the staff’s biggest priority in recruiting.

Agreed.

Good film. Athletic and aggressive. 7’ wingspan and only 2nd year of playing football. These are the kind of factors you want to see when there isn’t much of an offer list.

We played one. Clifford Chattman at UTSA.

Unfortunately he committed to Houston
