Ok Dan!!!

Easy now, bust.  It just might be MRS. DAN!!!!

Have we seen anything in the 2 months of Corny that would make us believe he was the correct choice?  We hired an assistant off of a losing team to replace the head coach of the same losing team.

Not one other team would have given Corny the reigns of their program.  I wanted to move on but I also hoped the new coach would be similar to Coach Caldwell and energize the team.

Well, if that is true about Corny's hire, then we can all agree that at least MU is remaining CONSISTENT in their Head Coaching hires in Basketball!!  A decade ago or thereabouts, NOT one other D1 team would have given Danny D. the head reigns of their program either!!!

Our PG committed tonight.   He's a good one.   Should be announced in the coming week.

Was he the p5 portal PG that was mentioned earlier in the week?
Thanks

You say a good one? Can you compare him to someone? I sure hope he is because that is the missing piece to this puzzle. Still think we also need a good scoring guard also and hopefully we get both.

Excellent news. Anxious to see him officially sign.

I am always interested to see what are the other offers a player has when we sign him. That is usually a good indicator of the player's potential. Sometimes you do get a player that has been overlooked. I gave up on watching highlight films since they are produced to make every player look like an All-American.

I really hope this kid can play. But why would a P5 PG that was really good step down to a midmajor and less money? Guess we will know soon enough.

Very good question. Eager to see how this kid stacks up. BTW, saw Corny and the staff with a kid at MU Cafe last night. Saw Cline at Yeager Airport yesterday, I assume waiting to pick someone up.

This guy is a scorer from the PG position.   Can guard 94 feet, can shoot it.   Exactly what we need.   I would look for another guard to be committed/signed in the next week or two.

What were his stats?  Or was he a higher rated recruit playing behind another high rated recruit at a P5? Thanks!!

Looks like a great get

Go Herd!

[herdorbust2]

Looks like he can shoot and score. But it's crucial for our PG to be able to penetrate and create going to the hole. Hopefully he can do that but his tape didn't really show much of that.

[Haveyouherd222]

That's not him.   He visited but that's not the guy we wanted.    The other one that was here yesterday committed.    Averaged double figures all 4 years, and shot 39% last year from 3.    He's got great bloodlines as dad played LB at Florida.

Yes his dad played football at Florida. But I thought we were getting a P5 transfer PG.
