Roster is already improved by a lot with healthy guys, McFarland, Jefferson, and freshmen. We were a VERY good team without them. We are deeper and more talented with them on active roster.

3 for 4 but whoās counting our one and Dunn.
That was bumped from like a a month ago
And that was a response to him saying I donāt know basketball, I never played or coachedā¦
No where in that statement is it saying Iām some great coach

Youāre good Pesik. Not sure why the poster chose to go find that baloney.
Now somewhere Give me your Top 3 TP that can be a TRUE PG for us. So I can have on record . Whether in Portal or maybe has potential to enter Portal
I never claimed to be giving sourced information and make it obvious Iām using context clues to guessā¦ context clues constantly changeā¦ ie like a week ago sedan would have been top 3. It changes
But for today, who the context clues are pointing to is 1 person
All signs pointing to Milos uzan.
But I donāt think he was the PG that Sampson was referencing earlier.
I actually get a few DMs from people on who they are hearing we are targetingā¦ I was being told like 4 different names from different people ā¦ despite all have diff names originally theyāve all pivoted to saying they think itās likely uzan seperately
Most of the chips going to him
Wade Taylor, seeming more unlikely by the dayā¦
My honest opinion is that the PG that Sampson was referencing to in that interview was dedan. UNLV is publicly celebrating him coming back, but he was never going to go proā¦ meaning he was āsupposedā to go portaling but didnāt

Makes sense. Things change drastically in todays Collegiate Sports World. Maybe even CKS got caught sticking his chest out some & is having to do some rethinking on who is right fit.
Only opinion I have is that no matter the rumors of yes or no on Shead coming backā¦ I thk Coach advises Shead to leave n go for it. Shead takes that advice as he moves on to his next Journey in Basketball. Was a Great Coog!!

Shead to Milo is not an improvement ā¦ they were both in the big 12ā¦ shead was POYt he other wasnāt even considered top 6 pg in the league
I agree with all of this.
The one thing this team needs next season is a PG who can create good looks for others, has good handles and can get into the paint to wreak havoc. A point guard who can also create for themselves, especially when the shot clock is about to expire. Cryer and Sharp can certainly improve in this area but last yrs team was extremely dependent on Shead providing this.

@pesik does Milos have a higher ceiling he can get to?
Could Porter Moser have gotten more out of him
Milos Dad is a basketball coach, correct? So high basketball IQ.
The point guard transfer market isnāt great.

Doesnāt some of that depend on the team, coach, system, etc? Iām not sure Shead would have been as successful if he played for OU last season. Dunn is a good example - he wasnāt able to replicate his Temple numbers playing here. Doesnāt mean heās a bad player, just that he didnāt fit with UH the same way he did with Temple. I donāt know anything about Uzan, but I donāt think comparing him and Shead on last seasonās outcome tells the full story?

Iām super excited. I also understand that if Shead comes back, we are in a pure ānothing has changedā situation. People are going to focus on that.
Just heard from a good source that Shead is coming back as a freshman

Having Shead back would be incredible, but it isnāt happening. No PG is gonna replace him 1 for 1.
We just need someone who can be as good as or close to Deeky, with what all we have coming back.
Last 5 years have been full of guys having amazing final seasons and either leaving for the draft or running out of eligibility. We have lamented how awesome it would be to have 1 more year of Gorham, Jarreau, Harris or Nate or Armoni etcā¦ as they had finally turned into legit big time players.
Well, this year we are getting a team full of those back. We are gonna be ranked in the top 7, will be picked in the top 3 of the conference, regardless who we or others get to transfer in.
AMAZING time to be a UH basketball fan.

@Coog1992 i get both your points
But Oklahoma was an offensive fast paced team and his offensive numbers arenāt that great, it should be inflatedā¦the pace here will be vastly slower
I like his potential, honestly if we had 3/4 ships to give Iād be estatic I just made a post 2 days ago about wanting taller skilled guards
The issues is we only have 1 ship to give ā¦ and the roster makeup heavily defined by the PG ( we dont have a lot of guys that can create for themselves)ā¦ we are trying to win it all next yearā¦ we will have no other true pg on roster ā¦ Sampson has only so many years ā¦
I would have liked a more proven commodity ā¦ even though I know many here donāt want to say it, they agree too
