2018 Recruiting

[SWFLSWAGG17]

Another potential grad transfer. Zach Johnson from Florida Gulf Coast.

Florida Gulf Coast's Zach Johnson has heard from Gonzaga, Louisville, VCU, Oklahoma, Miami, Creighton, Dayton, Saint Louis and Xavier about a potential grad transfer. Also testing the NBA Draft waters without an agent. 16.1 PPG, 37 in A-Sun title game.

I live in the area. Kid is a baller & has his off court life squared away. Would be a good get.

That kid is a no-brainer plus he is local and shoots almost 40% from 3.

 

[Notsince1985]

They didn't play the same position.

not what I was saying

 

[Gables Canes]

He would be a HUGE get for us. Just look at the stats and all of this experience

[Notsince1985]

Went to Norland. Once Huell comes back, get him to convince him to come.

Here is another kid. Koby McEwen 6'4 G from Utah State (must sit out, 2:2)

I don't understand this thread. Are we in the running for any of these guys, or is it about posting about random transfers?

 

[hotshot]

We're in the running, along with anywhere from 2 to 12 other schools, depending on the player.

 

[Consigliere]

I am not saying we have a chance at these kids, just here is a possible roster.

Assuming Brown or Walker returns:

2018: (assuming one of Walker/Brown returns)

PG: Lykes
G: Walker/Brown
G: Wilson/DJ

Sit Out: McGusty
Sit Out: Mcewen

2019: (assuming Walker/Brown leave)

PG: Lykes
G: McGusty/Mcewen
G: Wilson/DJ

In 2018-19, you bring 2 guards as part of the 2019 recruiting class.

Assuming neither Brown nor Walker return:

2018:

PG: Lykes
G: Johnson (transfer)
G: Wilson/DJ

Another Grad Transfer (for depth)
Sit Out: McGusty
Sit Out: Mcewen

2019:

PG: Lykes
G: McGusty/Mcewen
G: Wilson/DJ

In 2018-19, you bring 2 guards as part of the 2019 recruiting class.

Yes, or maybe. Sure.

It started out as a thread about our recruits. Then it turned into a list of all transfers who may or may not be interested in Miami.

 

[tcgrad1014]

It would be cool if Wagner transferred to Miami.

 

[casualcane]

Well. 2018 recruiting has basically turned into who can we look at via the transfer market.

So, let’s look.

It is almost the same thing. We need players regardless. I don’t care if we recurit them or transfer in, just come here and develop them.

There's only a handful of the top 150 players in the country that are unsigned or un-committed to another school. Can't imagine many of those guys are even willing to take Miami's calls with this FBI **** still looming.

Is it still looming? We really don't know that answer.

 

[RiDLer80]

Is it still looming? We really don't know that answer.

I meant looming in the sense that we haven't been formally cleared. It's an uncertainty that recruits don't want to risk dealing with.

Unfortunately, if landing recruits requires being "formally cleared," recruiting is over permanently.

Exactly, I very much doubt the FBI comes out with a statement that UM is "cleared." You hear from DoJ if you are going to prosecuted; No news, therefore, is good news (or at least as good as it gets).
