Congrats to k state. I'll be curious to see where we turn. We missed on our top 2 targets last cycle out of the portal. This one was probably the difference between a good team and a great team.

First KState takes KJ from us and now this. Hope they lose every game.

So I've been pretty caught up in who we're gonna add in the portal. Not much out there but from what little I could find through Twitter is. We've reached out to RayJ Dennis (my favorite), Jordan Dingle and Tyrin Lawrence. Maybe some others those were the only names thrown out but they're also the best available so who knows. The one guy on tos says were in contact with some pg's. Ques Glover committed to BYU today wich I think could be a good sign.

Any chance here given he played high school ball in Orlando? Looks like we offered originally, but not sure how much interest there was.

I doubt we'd take another big right now. Need another ball handler that can create

Think it may be this guy….


White Chocolate, part Duex, perhaps??? LOL. Born in Corbin, KY, so highly unlikely for those familiar with that part of the state. Probably more like an Ervin Stepp. For those unfamiliar give his high school stats a look.

From what I seen on Twitter when he first entered the portal. Ole miss offered him 400k . I think they were the original tamperers. Not saying we won't pay or can't get him. That's just the only thing I could track down.
