Would Fardaws Aimaq be a good Coleman replacement or is he more strictly a 5?
Do we still have interest in him?

I think his point is that Hopkins barely played at Kentucky. And the larger point is that you really, really need to know the player and have a fairly good idea of how he projects.
Okay, my point is that Barnes has had two FULL seasons to show *something*, anything. He hasn't. Hopkins excelled in year 2. Barnes might end up being a decent player, but I'd put huge money on that only happening at a lower level.

Would not be surprised to see Hopkins enter the portal again

Would have to agree with the overall takes on Bryce vs Isaiah. We're talking about two completely different talent levels and expectations entering college. Hopkins just needed consistent minutes and excelled.

Barnes in two years could not earn any tick and get on the floor. Still see Barnes transferring to a mid major not another high major D1. Thats a dude who would do well in the Horizon/Summit league.

Bryce is a high major player anywhere he goes.

Demarcus Sharp NW St……Yay or Nay?
Numbers look good but can’t say I watched much Southland conference.

I look at a team like UConn and see an idea of what we could be like next year. Great guard play, with good outside shooting supplemented all by a superior presence down low and athleticism at every position. Not sure how/if Brad could build a roster like that in this off-season, but Hurley only returned 3 rotational players from last year. Albeit, we have no one like Sanogo or Jordan Hawkins on our roster
