I'm hot today LOL!!! Watching LL, he doesn't look like a Pac12 player to be honest. He plays decent D, but he's showing nothing as far as making a basket.
I'll counter this by saying the formula for defeating us is easy for the Pac12 - Focus solely on stopping 1 or both of KJ and TDS. No one else on our team has the ability to step up and fill the gap. Pac12 opponents will have players who match up with these two more so than UNA and UNC. Shocker, I know. I worry there could be some ugly nights in January and February TBH.
And yet, Clifford with the exact FT%, FG%, TO%, RPG% is out there. SMDH.
Question, is he a 2/2 or 3/3 eligibility-wise? I would give my left nut for him to be here for 2 more after this year.
He has 3 years to play last I checked
His freshman year at Northeastern was the Covid year so didn't ding his eligibility, so his one year of Juco, then this would technically be sophomore year.
I know we were trying to get a freshman post from over seas. Just would've been nice to get at least one post from the portal instead of two 6'3 guards. Had to be some options out there.
Until two weeks, any athletic program under the University of Colorado, with few exceptions, could NOT recruit transfers that were going into their junior or senior years. That was an issue
Considering that Tad could only look at grad transfers for the most part due to the CU admissions rules which were in place and he was losing Key, I get what he was doing. Get a couple experienced, productive, high IQ guys to hold down the fort and force the young talent to develop & earn minutes. It's a guard's game, so that had to be the priority. But, dammit, we all knew that it was a ton to replace in the front court where we lost our 2 best players in Jabari and Evan.
Klintman would have meant no Hadley. We'd still have a huge problem with the wings and we wouldn't have had a guy averaging 10/7 on 55% shooting.
Knowing what we know now, but the way it actually went down is that Klintman was our last spot and when admissions denied him (because, you know, CU standards are so much higher than fellow AAU members Maryland and Wake Forest... and I'm now ok with it... found my center... doesn't bother me at all these days... nothing to see here... I'm perfectly calm... Zen as fvck) then fortunately Mike Rohn had stayed in contact with Hadley and we were able to land an 11th hour replacement.
