Took me at least 19 seconds to type “Flando says chill, it’s all coming together.” Judges say, “victory, huge!”.

I'm digging the patience.  The alternative is quickly filling the team with crappy players that aren't about winnin'.

I want to be there with you but 4 is just too few players for me not to be nervous.  If we get a couple more commits over the next week, I'll feel better.

Goddamnit don’t you go doing this to me, stun is all I can handle lol

Sorry man, we have 4 scholarship players right now, two of which barely played last year. I'm not going to freak out, but this is a bit annoying.

We have Nowell, Ish, Cam Carter, Colbert, Taj Manning   plus Jarret Valencia and Dorian Finister are silent commits.   They have 6 more slots to fill which I think Antoine Davis will be one and Shawn Phillips feels like another one that is pretty heavy lean for us.  I am less confident in landing  Julian Phillips but seems likely that our third assistant coach still not being officially hired is indicative of some kind of behind the scenes motion for a stud 2022 HS player or two.

Don’t quite get why someone would be a silent commit at this point, but both of those seem more like Dudes in the rough than instant impact Dudes. But if Davis commits and we can land one of the HS studs we’ve been linked with I’d feel pretty good about at least being solid next year.

Every program has developmental players, you can’t get 13 dudes on the roster who all can have an instant impact for obvious reasons.  I’m no scout so I can’t speak to if those two dudes are worthy of a P6 offer but seems unlikely that this staff is going to bring in players that they don’t expect to be able to contribute eventually.

Honestly, big woof, this roster is going to win 10 games

I'm with joda on the silent commitments, that's weird and unnecessary.

I like Finister's film.  Great vision and athleticism.  Really drives the hole.  Didn't see enough of his jumper though.

Who do you think committed tonight? If you were a betting man?


#1) Underrated 2022 Louisiana guard Dorian Finister


#2) 2022 4-star top-50 big Shawn Phillips


#3) #7 JUCO player, Nae'qwan Tomlin. (My Guess)

Do we interpret Smellis Blueberry Robinett’s tweet as Dorian Finister is the Commit?

Per Flanders. Hi Diddley Ho!


2022 Guard Dorian Finister finished his visit to Kansas State today.  (Committed)


A top JUCO forward Nae’Qwan Tomlin is in town now.


And a top-50 2022 recruit in 7-footer Shawn Phillips will join Tomlin in MHK this weekend

Get Mrs. Tang a cup of coffee. I’m told she closed on this one.
