Looking for bigs with immediate eligibility. We’ve got a home and home with UAB starting next year at RBA as well.

Is it safe to say that these 2 spots may end up being the 2 scholarships that make or break this contract for Dan? Need 2 bigs that will get us out of Thursday night next year. Then into the top 4 for 21-22.

We really need some inside scoring ability. Heck, we didn’t even have anyone very good at taking it to the hoop. We’ve gotta be able to score in the paint. I think Emon and Fleming will be saviors in this regard but we still need some older, more experienced players. However, post scoring should be the #1 priority. Fingers crossed for some decent help on the way!

We need a Day 1 starter at the 5 and experience at the 3, IMO. Agree on upside of Fleming and Emon being willing and able taking the ball to the rim, but need that piece this year, in the event either doesn’t establish themselves early. Hopefully Abdou can become more of a threat offensively, showed promise as a RS Freshman in the post on the defensive end. If the staff doesn’t believe he can make a big enough jump, they gotta go two bigs.

So Haarms from Purdue entering the transfer portal and our Redbirds listed as a team that has reached out, any chance he comes for 1 year. I don't think there is a chance, but one can dream

Sounds like a craigslist ad...
