Feels like many of our transfers in, though, have played significant minutes as starters.


True they did play a lot, although their performance level dropped, but maybe we need to split the guys we bring in to start versus the rotation/depth guys?

Baylor went from 35.2 and 33.3 to 32.7 Minutes a game
his PER (efficiency rating) went from 23.3 and 25.2 to 17.8

Hawkins played about the same minutes, but went from 22.7/22.6 a game to 13.8

Better examples are likely guys like Feazell 29.5 minues to 9.9, PER from 21.3 to 14.9
Kelvin Jones 20 minutes to 11.2 minutes, and 21 PER to 15.3 PER

Taran Armstrong has Creighton, Gonzaga, Xavier and Providence as his finalists.

He just received a crystal ball that he’s turning pro. FWIW.

the turning pro rumor was going around before we signed Ashworth. Gonzaga was also recruiting Ashworth and then Armstrong was rumored to be going home and going pro, so I imagine it added stress to their offseason (and they don't have a lot of guys on the roster right now either)

I can't find any documentation that we had offered him out of HS. Saw on twitter we were "down to the end" for him back then, but that doesn't really add up imo. Did we just not wanna waste an offer when we didnt think he'd accept it in 2021?

It's been a couple years but I'm pretty sure we were one of his top choices before he decided to go with his brother to Memphis. Something like we didn't have room for his brother?

took me a while to remember him - really liked him as a prospect out of HS and the interest was serious with Creighton before he decided on Memphis - believe Miller was recruiting him to TCU before he came to Creighton

the original recruiting thread is here:
http://bluejayunderground.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=5690&start=50

Seems like a good fit our system (like he was before). Has a good handle, passes, and shoots the 3 as well.

and some video of him playing a game with Miller (and Yates)

He was committed to Oregon and then he decommitted and it was between Creighton and Memphis (home).
