Sorry to post this right after the season ended on not the happiest note, but from what I’m hearing, I would not expect us to make the Tournament next season. It sounds like the plan is for Boogie to depart and Ethan to be the full time point guard next season. That, combined with Isaiah’s departure, probably means we’ll have our roughest season since 2018-19.

Why is Boogie leaving?Originally posted by Chase in Arizona View Post -
Sounds like a mutual decision.Comment

That's... pessimistic - so you have it on good word that Boogie and Isaiah are gone? Neither one is playing like an NBA player right now.
Anderson's defense is always going to be rough, but there's no reason we can't find another guard out of the portal (unless Andy doesn't want to).
- Drew could return
- Max could start making 3s
- Reese looks great
- Kobe should be a contributor next year
- 1-2 portal additions?
- Doesn't feel like we lose a whole lot with White and Vez gone since neither contributed much down the stretch.
- Morgan and Hornery - meh
- Kijani, Vince, Sellers all seem like good prospects but maybe not immediate contributors.Comment

Is Boogie going pro or transferring? I hope he goes pro because I would hate seeing him in another college jersey.Comment

Boogie will likely put his name in, then pull out and probably go into the portal (from what I’m hearing).Comment

Kijani, Vince, and Sellers are exactly the kind of guys you want to recruit. But they’re long term prospects, not guys you wanting starting next season.Comment

I just remember we were playing Max, Ethan, Mobley alongside Mathews, Rac, and Big O 3 years ago and were still a tourney team.Originally posted by Chase in Arizona View PostComment

Don't worry Coach will schedule 10 Out of Conference Cupcakes, then win 12 games in a crappy Pac 12 and maybe a game in the Pac 12 tourney and we will be on the bubble come tournament time and then he will remind you that we have the 3rd most wins in the nation over the past 5 years and that the amount of wins for SC is the most in a five year span, etc, etc.Comment

Interestingly, we have the Battle for Atlantis and Auburn OOC next season.Originally posted by BigAl View PostComment

Yeah, after Big O -> Mobley I kinda got into the habit of thinking 5 star big is synonymous with immediate impact player. I mean, after all, 5 star has to mean something right?Originally posted by Chase in Arizona View Post
But sure, let's give him some time to develop.
Nonetheless, If we can put some shooters around Morgan we've got something.Comment

But it’s more than shooters. We need guys who can handle the ball and guard opposing ball handlers. And without Boogie, we are really low on that.Originally posted by Trojan2021 View Post
