Why not.  He was here before and allowed to back out supposedly due to an ill grandparent, if memory serves me correct.  Then again, he is listed as 5'11" and could be a tad shorter.  I won't pass up a scorer, but we should be after bigger guards.

I'd take him. His height might be what deters bigger programs but if he wants to come and be Perry 2.0, I'm here for it. I do like Brumaugh from Tulane but he'll likely be out of price range.

Wasn’t his granny sick or somesuch?

We have a stellar 6-6 guard sitting on our bench...

17 points per game as a true freshman , I’d take him.

Not sure Ross would play him being a freshman and all.

Would be a soph. portal transfer. Right now, we have 0 point guards for 25-26. I really liked the kid but many times ego gets in the way of making the right decision. Probably would have bumped Floyd from the starting spot or at least taken some minutes. Might have been a defensive liability but his play making ability would compensate. Reminds me of a poor man's Mark Price. (who they listed as 5-11 or 6-0)

 I think Mason and Cotton would have averaged 17 ppg. as freshmen as well at Central Arkansas.

In this portal era, the kid was smart to go to a lower level school and shine. 
Beats coming here and sitting on the bench all season like the kid from Plano East did. 
Taylor probably has way more value on the open market than Tyran Mason does right now. 

We are going to see kids transferring UP more and more. North Texas has proven to be a great destination for players to win and increase their value. All of our guys from last season who transferred “up” got paid, had meaningful roles on their new teams and made the NCAA tournament.

      Why Abou left?

      I see Oklahoma State is in the NIT this year. Wonder if Abou Ousmane will choose to play in it this time…

      Crown vs NIT

      Hell will freeze over before the NCAA gives us an at-large bid. Too many televisions in the SEC. Remember, the tournament is there to make money, not have the best teams.

      Coach O to Texas State

      That's not anything I or any other Coog fan denies. In fact, the only times we've been solid in football over the last 35 years is when our QB has a last name that starts with K or W. Ware Klinger Kolb Keenum Ward King The jury is out on Weigman but the trend works in his favor.
