Duke couldn’t stop him and at any level. He could create, shoot and drive. He was good defensively too…just a superior athlete with skills. 4 minutes ago, Seeking6 said: What's sad is last night when the horn sounded my text string with buddies the first thing we all said was hope he hits the portal and chooses us after this year. Coming from IU, Iowa, Illinois, and Wisconsin fans. He had declared for the draft this year, but then withdrew his name. Currently projected as a second round pick. Could a year at a P5 school move him into the first round? He's from Florida. Would he go to a FL school for a year, or stay in the Midwest? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming from IU, Iowa, Illinois, and Wisconsin fans. I did the same thing after IU played Harvard with Malik Mack. That’s just the reality of college bball these days though. Good mid/low major players are going to be recruiting targets of high major programs. Those types of players are less risky than freshman who may or may not be ready for college ball. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can make more $ taking the highest offer in portal next year vs getting picked in 2nd round or going undrafted and shipped to the G league.

So many really good players at the mid-major level that nobody outside their respective conferences has ever heard about. Has anyone on this board ever heard of Cardet Jr. before watching that game last night? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceDouglas Posted December 14, 2023 Report Share Posted December 14, 2023 NW drops from 48 to 84 in NET. Not something the Big Ten needed. Still will probably end up with 6 bids, but making it a lot tougher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted December 14, 2023 Report Share Posted December 14, 2023 I think it was Iowa last year that lost to Kenpom's #347 last year still got an 8 seed. Granted Big 10 was better last year so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purdue7 Posted December 14, 2023 Report Share Posted December 14, 2023 I could be wrong but I think this might be an area CMW will correct in portal recruiting If MM fell into his lap at the last minute….what was plan B for last 2 scholarships?

But still very rare for the conference to get less than 6. And still not as bad as the ACC, this year or last. NW will probably still get in and someone else will get hot in conference and make it. Maybe IU? 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13th&Jackson Posted December 15, 2023 Report Share Posted December 15, 2023 Watching WI against Jax St. Connor Essegian entered game first time at 13 minute mark of second half.

He'll be available at the end of the year for someone. He went back in with about 3 minutes to go. He really struggles defensively. He did knock down a three and got a big cheer from the crowd (seems to be a fan favorite). He was playing hard, but he just looks miserable. They added AJ Storr and freshman John Blackwell, who have both been playing really well. Blackwell was so much better than Essegian, defensively. So Essegian is just odd man out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his son is a legitimate 5 star or high 4 star target. Then yes, he can carve out a roll as note taker if he wants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
