Averages 13 points & 9 boards, have to think he's got a quite a few silent offers in the pocket unless he's a head-case.
Yeah I surprisingly watched a few of his games this year, I’d be surprised if he didn’t have a few top tier mid majors of low P6s, guy was legit. No insight into anything other than the few games I watched this year but he’s got the talent to come in and immediately contribute on both ends of the floor, and would push to start at most programs.

Never know when one might open up…

Well....maybe, but I kind of doubt it. Feels a little close to the first day of classes for a kid to be pushed out and don't see anyone doing it voluntarily given the number of players still in the portal. Maybe they leave mid-semester after the tuition is paid for and somebody new is brought in mid-season but that's an odd scenario too.

I have zero inside info though.

Still 2 months before the start of the fall semester. I’m inclined to agree, a mid-year departure is most likely, but we’ve added and lost players late in the summer before and wouldn’t rule it out.

Yea but that was when we had Dave. Anything mediocre and below was possible.

Kim is great but he isn’t gonna be able to find playing time for 13 guys. Still gonna be players looking to leave and now it’s easier than ever to do so. That’s just the reality.
I agree to some extent. The kicker is can coaches get kids to buy into the concept of working for their PT and paying their dues. Sure, with it being so easy to transfer these days, you'll likely lose a couple here and there. But if the coach can recruit the right kids with the right mindset, and he proves to be inspirational and helpful vs. a jerk dictator to his team in practices, you might not see kids leave just because they didn't start or average lots of minutes their first year in college. I could see Kim not only getting kids that are willing to work hard and grind, but compliment that with being fun to work with and learn from. His personality and connections might be what keep us from losing big numbers to the portal each year.

I agree he should be able to keep underclassmen engaged and willing to pay their dues — he certainly seems to be a natural at relationship-building. I was talking about guys who have been here 2-3 years and know they have been recruited over … with the new rules there’s no reason to stay and be buried on the bench when you can leave and be immediately eligible somewhere else.

I agree, they’ll be some that leave because the writing is on the wall and they have been over recruited. I think the key for Kim will be to continue to recruit higher and higher level kids and to keep the top players from transferring up.
