Thatβs an almost entirely new team. But itβs also 14 players?
Anyone want to hazard a guess at what the starting 5 might be?
There is nobody on the roster with my height? Whatβs up with that?
The roster limit for MBB under House will be 15 and that number includes walk-ons.
Niner contact opts for Penny and Bluff City over the QC.

For some reason I thought Mading played center and as a grad transfer assumed he would start. But not according to that list.
Elliott is very athletic and quick, needs to get a chance to play and develop. Not a Center.
Had no room to play at Tulane. May not of fit in Hunters style of play.
Will probably do well in Fearneβs, back door movement to the hoop offense. Like Blackmon etc..
Any of you recruiting experts have an idea on whoβs going to pop on that list?
Someoneβs going to step up and grab the bull by the horns and make a name for themselves.
Whoβs it going to be?
Iβd say Mingo.
As much worry there was about Fearne being able to recruit, it appears he has done very well. Sure hope he can bring these players together
clt says we need this guy to complete the #sizekings

Looks promising. I just hope we have guys who can hit wide open 3s. If that happens, weβll be tough to deal with.
What a difference a week makes in recruiting!
Niners offered back in September.
Looks like Freeman can finish through contact.
Roster looks like a 3 guard offense setting up.
