RE: coming up on 45 days in the Tubs era- 1 2016 recruit
Christian Musoko - 6-8, 245 C off the Salt Lake City CC national champs. Only averaged 5 and 3, but just reopened recruitment, good size, and would only tie up a scholarship for 2 years.
This is what we're kind of coming down to on the grad trans market:
Marvin Jones - 6-10 F Kent State, averaged 1 and 1
Aaron Scales - 6-9 C Cleveland State, averaged 1 and 1
Scott Sill - 6-9 F Delaware State, averaged 4 and 3
Johnny Zuppardo - 6-9 F Mississippi State, averaged 3 and 2
Kwesi Abakah - 6-8 F Northeastern, averaged 1 and 2
Christopher Ikuenobe - 6-9 F UTRGV, averaged 2 and 1
Norville Carey - 6-7 F Southern Miss, sat out 2016 with injury but averaged 10 and 5 in 2015
Christian Jones - 6-7 F St. John's, averaged 8 and 5 (if he isn't going overseas)
DeAndre Harris - 6-3 G North Texas, averaged 8 but shot 45% from 3

Way too late for 2016. Starting from behind on 2017. Let's give him some time.

Too late?
Huh?
Hell, Hoopdreams has ID's about 20 available players that could come in immediately that have either been scooped up or are still out there.
Texas Tech has brought in at least 3 guys and UNLV 4--and both of them came in after the Tubinator.

our program doesn't have the shine it once did so not surprised coming in late would be a tough road to go. Last time I checked Memphis isn't Las Vegas. That kind of stuff attracts kids. Hate to say it but it was already a given that next season would be a throw away year on the court, regardless of the coach. Recruiting classes are totally out of balance in the numbers. At this point you're doing nothing but bargain bin shopping. Save scholarships for the 2017 class and go after that hard.

Who needs recruits? Recruits are a highly overrated part of college basketball. We'll get some walk-ons at open tryouts and Tubby will coach them up to outplay 5 star guys. Oh ye of little faith.

It means your post is stupid and it's way too early for you to be judging the new coach. At least that's what I gathered from the response.

It's amazing how soon some get into the coach worship.
The criticism is valid. We could have picked up a couple of transfers to fill out the roster.
Grabbing a transfer for a year, would fill the roster and not tie up future scholarships.
It looks like Coach is punting on next season.

Just his average level of recruiting over the past five + years.

RE: coming up on 45 days in the Tubs era- 1 2016 recruit
Not really sure how else to say it.
There really are no good grad trans left on the board.
If it's a guy we've not heard of yet then Tubby and staff are really hamstringing another school and their staff by getting a guy to grad trans this late in the game.
So it's either a very very ordinary grad transfer out there now, an unranked unknown juco, an outside the top 100 HS kid or no one.
That or they are about to really screw another school and staff.

No. It's a lame response which offers no substantive thoughts to make an adult give and take possible.
