He does have upside. And I am expecting him to get stronger and fill out more, which should allow him to bang some next season.

I think you're referring to Harlond Beverly. If he's healthy and 100%, he'd probably be the favorite to return to the starting lineup. If my memory serves me correctly, he was part of the starting 5 prior to his back issues. Will be interesting to see

In all likelihood, the starters will be Nigel, Wong, Miller, Omier and whoever steps up during the offseason from the returning players. I don't anticipate any of the freshmen warranting starting minutes off the rip. Could go with Walker, or maybe one of the returning guards get plucked in. I...

Omier reminds me of a young Carlos Boozer. Maybe just a smidge below on skill/talent than Boozer but still think he’ll have a chance at the league if he continues to develop. He’s an old school PF who doesn’t veer far from the paint. Strong hands allows him to catch and grab everything he...

They've been selling Omier on immediate playing time, development and their NBA pipeline. FWIW, I was told their chances of landing Omier would hinge largely on Lazarus being promoted from DOBO to Asst Coach but it looks like their most recent hire R-Jay Barsh will get the nod over Lazarus.

I don't know how this effects Omier, but thought it was interesting that Texas Tech PF Kevin Obanor announced yesterday that he'd be returning to the program after weighing his options to turn pro. I don't see how this bodes well for their chances of landing Omier.

I believe he'll announce after he takes all his visits.

From what I understand, they took him to Pinolandia! That's the smart move. LOL!!!! 😋

I heard that unless Miami decides to go in a different direction (which I'd assume is very unlikely at this point), Omier will be playing in orange & green next season. He loved his visit. Living in Miami and playing in the ACC really appeals to him. His NIL package deal only makes it that more...

Sounds like Omier coming.

Told y'all Pilin Alvarez (man in this photo with button down red shirt) would have a hand in his decision. Good to see Miami coming in right. hopefully, we've done enough to secure a commitment. Lot of politicking going on behind the scenes. Wouldn't be surprised if an assistant coach hiring is...

It's probably not saying much, but for Sam it was a good season considering how his first 5 seasons here went. Not a great year if you were expecting him to average a double-double. Unfortunately, bar for him was set pretty low coming into this season.

IF Miami is going to land Omier, I hope Larranaga and staff have done their due diligence and reached out to Pilin Alvarez. Omier ain't going anywhere without Pilin's blessing.
