spartan2785 No. 2 Share Posted April 10 I don't want to be that guy, but this feels very similar to when they got Ra'heim Moss, Estrada, Zarzuela, the list goes on. A scorer who shot 36% from 3 and 42% overall in a lower level league, does not sound like an impact player at all. I could be wrong, but I'm not exactly overwhelmed with confidence this is the guy to replace Bamba or Key. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
30Duck Author Moderator No. 3 Share Posted April 10 It's clear that the NIL is leaning heavily to the football side, not that I'm complaining, but I hope there's enough to get Bittle to come back, as for getting other players to come over, it is what it is.

Which is ok as long as we find some players that have been starters on a power 4 team. The WBB team went to the tournament because they upgraded their portal transfers this past year vs their transfers in the previous year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altman keeps complaining about needing "shot makers" and not "shot takers", but the coaches keep taking low percentage shooters at the guard position. This guy has Tracey type stats, but against lower level competition and without the length and experience in the program. A little bit of a head scratcher, but hopefully he proves me wrong.
