Not one of the guys I was worried about but I understand the kids thinking The freshman we signed is about the same player.

What's the expected timeframe for when current players will leave and we have an idea on which transfers are coming in?
MarcAg said:I can't say I am shocked, but I kind of hoped he could figure it out here because of his shooting. Buzz said in the Fall he thought Erik could be a good player, but also said he isn't ready for this level yet.gstu11 said:

Last fall, Austin Nunez checked in at just 5-foot-10 and was your average small-ball sharpshooter. Fast forward to now, the four-star incoming junior stands at 6-foot-2 and weighs over 170-pounds, and has landed 10+ high-major offers since last year.
The Texas native holds offers from Baylor, LSU, Arkansas, Texas A&M, Memphis, Oklahoma State, others.

Noteworthy because Peake was a forward on the basketball team, broke curfew and was involved in a shooting on campus that killed a UNM student in the early morning hours the day of the Lobo-Aggie rivalry game. Police have said that Peake acted in self defense after he was jumped by three UNM students. Peake was lured to campus by a female student who was friends with the UNM students, police say.
Peake, who was hit in the leg, killed UNM student Brandon Travis in a shootout around 3 a.m. outside a dorm complex.

I think some of y'all are underselling manny. He has the highest ceiling of anyone on the team with his length, athleticism and skills that already exist.

Arizona State freshman PG Austin Nunez hit the portal. Nationally ranked #102 coming out of San Antonio Wagner. Appeared in 28 games this year.
His dad Lupe Nunez is very connected in AAU circles. Wouldn't surprise me if Austin came back to play in the state.of Texas.Quote:

I believe Buzz recruited the Epps kid hard. If my memory is correct we made his final 5 or so schools.
Quote:
Back in October, when Sports Illustrated introduced King's Fork (Suffolk, Va.) combo guard Jayden Epps as a commodity in the 2022 class his list of potential college suitors was swelling by the day.
Now, he's zeroed in on six schools that he wants to focus on going forward: Providence, Florida, Virginia Tech, Texas A&M, Arkansas and N.C. State all made the cut.
Epps on Texas A&M: "They started recruiting me last year, and the coaches hit me all the time. They break down film with me on their Zooms and really show me how my game fits in with them. They have a run-and-gun style and play tough defense. I know I would fit in there."

This past week saw a major influx of impact players including Caleb Love, Jayden Epps and Kel'el Ware among many others, giving us no choice (or so our editors say) but to expand our rankings from the initial 25 to a top 50 today. Here is the updated and expanded list of 50.

Boots and Andre Gordon are both coming off the 13 scholarship spots. They would both be fifth year COVID seniors. That's two spots and then two more with Pratt and JB. Think we have 3 open as of now. Dennis didn't count as one of the 13 spots this year so him leaving doesn't open up a spot.
Yes. He is using a covid year and therfore doesn't take up a scholarship (unless the NCAA decides to change that. Gordon would be the same which is why he doesn't show.Know Your Enemy said:
Is there a reason you don't have Boots on that list?
Faustus said:I think any scholarship limit waivers due to covid were done in 2021-2022. The players still get the extra year, but the team is limited to the usual 13 scholarships.Know Your Enemy said:
I believe these are all the scholarship players that started this past season on the roster. Let me know if I missed anyone. If I am not mistake Jaelyn Lee & Davin Watkins were walk-ons.

Bryce Lindsay - Freshman
That should leave us 3 spots to fill (I think if Boots takes his COVID year it does not count against our 15 schollies.)

This past season was the first year that college athletes could take advantage of the NCAA's extra year because of the coronavirus pandemic's impact on the 2020-21 season.
So for just last season, the players who were using their extra year did not count against the scholarship limit. This gave schools time to adjust to the ruling.
But beginning with the 2022-23 season, any player who is using their extra year will count toward the scholarship limit. So teams will be able to have just 13 players on scholarship.
For the 13 scholarship number:
