There is literally 20 more days for guys to enter the portal.
Where are Ivisic and Bradshaw ranked? Didn't want to keep loading players. Ivisic probably would do good in Popes offense but as a backup.
Because he sucks!
I mean you can choose to lead life as a fan paranoid as hell or optimistic for the future.
We are very likely returning 5 guys with system experience, much better freshman and really just need to add 3-4 pieces.
Pope built a team (when healthy) fully capable of a FF 4un and a year ago today he wasn't our coach...hell he didn't even have assistants until April 22nd last year.
Pope knows what he is looking for. He will be more than fine. Hardly none of the top portal players from last year took their team anywhere.
He is growing this thing organically.
Trying to remind myself of this too ^. Good post
God, thank you. This isn’t like last year where the cupboard is completely bare and we need to load the team with transfers. We’ve got an all-SEC player coming back and 3 top-30 freshmen. Don’t get me wrong, we NEED a few dudes. But Kam is a very solid pickup, we’re heavily involved with several top available guys, and there’s still PLENTY of time for more to hit the portal.
This portal class may end up a bust, but it’s just way too early to be panicking already
HagginHall1999, I agree with every thing you said except one comment. We were NOT final four good if we had not had one injury. We were what we were. We overachieved and ended up in sweet 16. That was our ceiling from day one. Coach Pope far exceeded wins with his players. If Pope can improve our squad this year we could be an elite 8 level next year. No one would like to see a final four than I would because I don't have a lot of time to wait. At 80 at the beginning of 2025 - 2026 season, it becomes urgent to get back to a final four.
I thought with the two assistant coaches that Pope brought in that recruiting would not be so difficult this season.
