you have temple insight, so you're probably right.. but i heard there is major momentum between him and temple to get him "home". especially with only 1 pg on temple's roster.
i know your not a fan of his, but i think it would be a good pickup, if by chance you do end up landing him

There's always attempts to soft land Philly kids at Temple, La Salle and St. Joe's for those who don't work out at major schools.

to be fair to diggins.. it not that it didn't work out at uconn... he was a virtual lock at major PT at uconn had he stayed (there are no guards on uconns roster)

according to reports he was frustrated with last season. and somewhere along the line decided he wants to be closer to home..

you can tell he was just over hurley, he could have had green grass at uconn had he wanted... he was only a freshmen last year

Sure, but also the fact that Miller played as a true FR and shined.

outside of wanting temple to be good.. you are the main reason i want diggins at temple

you pinned diggins and miller against each other.. and sorta made them rivals to me (where you have a side), only one of them would start so that would be really interesting to see how it plays out

Yeah, it definitely wasn't me. It was a big thing locally. Most people locally believed Miller was a better player.

Number 1 on my big man wish list and he has an Iconic Oscar Robertson picture as his twitter banner. Hoping that is a good sign.

Tay Mosher (ECU) has entered the portal.

Didn't do anything in his 1 year at ECU. He was a true freshman and rarely even got garbage minutes. Best of luck.

Tulsa picks up two Louisiana Tech de-commits, Jesaiah McWright and BB Knight.

LOL. Diggins was not a lock for major PT at UCONN. Kid was a turnover machine vs walk-on opponents, and Hurley hold him at the end of the season that he would be over-recruited via the portal for next season.

that is a lie... and lacks common sense..

uconn has no guards at all with experience on roster .. but telling the only guard on the roster who is a top 50 recruit that you re going over recruit them is ridiculous...and not believable to anyone with common sense

Hurley literally commented on it , and noted it was his decision, that he was competitive and frustrated with last season and shady comment about "he feels he can do better elsewhere"... the article above literally notes hurely asked him to comeback

please lets avoid te obviously homer takes in order to try and make uconn look good that are blatantly false

it is a guaranteed FACT. he was lock for major pt had he stayed at uconn

will be curious if you get a recommitment from DJ Jefferson, he seems to like konkol

would make tulsa really young but it starts the rebuild

Wichita hitting the full scale reset button. Dex and Mo are in the portal. Etienne still expected to be gone, so 8 scholarships open (not including Ricky if he ends up doing something after the draft process)

Current remaining roster:
Porter
Pohto
Ricks (redshirted this year)
Abidde (redshirted this year)
Council (entered draft process)

Tyson Etienne is expected to turn pro: but it has not been made official
https://www.kansas.com/sports/college/wi...57955.html

Also wouldn't be surprised to see Porter leave now with so much churn and with Lou Gudino leaving today as he was his primary connection to WSU. Taylor thinks the only for sure players to stay will be Pohto, Ricks and Abidde

wichita imo is destined to be horrible.. yet...

wichita has ships, but i dont think they are a good enough recruiting team to put together a touted team from the portal (needing multiple players)

IMO there is still a path for them to be a tournament team
- Etienne changes his mind after seeing he has absolutely no draft stock whatsoever (and obviously improves his game)
- getting a touted guard (terry Roberts as an example)
- get a physically dominant center

a core of:
- etienne
- touted guard transfer
- porter (hopefully with an improved shot)
- pohto
- touted center transfer

- council
- ricks
- best other transfer

could even be better than last years team

Either Dexter Dennis or Udeze would be a great add to Cincy’s roster but have no idea whether Coach Wes Miller would have interest.
