The thing about Brody was his maturity being in his last year. That was invaluable to our freshman who no longer are freshman. So now we look for a 3 or so year guard who can fill it up like Brody.
So am I…. But it seems that the consensus here is that this team needs, from a composition/chemistry POV, a ‘Whitaker 2.0’ and this guy is 1” taller plus, from the lone video, the kid seems quicker than Brody and likes to mix it up on penetration as well as pop from the arc. Isn’t that the classic 2? Nice combo. ………. then, of course, there’s also the sibling thing that could help the culture along (or not) 🙄
None of us really know what Powell has in mind, or what his transfer portal recruitment strategy looks like. I think a few of us just like to find guys who may possibly fit and that logically could be in play for Valpos situation, monetarily and chemistry wise. In JT’s bothers case it could be relevant to pay attention to simply like when Cooper came back for year 2 his brother showed up on the team. For all we know coach Powell may have a power 5, 15 ppg, 6’6” shooting guard from Chicago looking to finish his collegiate career close to home. Or maybe someone in Dease’s position last year. The transfer portal is just interesting to follow in general, for me anyways. We really have no idea and it’s just fun, this year anyways 😂. Just curious what tangibles from your perspective does this team need to fill in next year what characteristics does that player have or play with? I’m saying a Brody 2.0 but there are a lot of guys on this forum that have watched Valpo ball for a decade or better, I have only been following the team since Powell arrived.
Just wait for the Boom tweet. Bringing sibling ln board is interesting, similar to Carson and Cooper
