What is our biggest need? I’m guessing an “Olmsted replacement” from the transfer portal? Or do we still need someone that’s more of a true point guard?

I think they have a few freshman that could be interesting, Rutherfurd is 6'11" and redshirted this last year, curious to see what he can do, I'm sure he practiced against JO/BW all last year.
I'm not sure if Jaqari Miles is your true point guard but between Turner, Miller, and Miles, they do have some options.

First to fall. Suspect we’ll see a couple more in the near future
This one sucks! Was looking forward to watching this kid shoot.

Also Bryce Zephir seems to be a decent point guard option. And we've thrown an offer at the guard from Northern State.
I'm all for a couple 6-9 or taller dudes!!

Our seats are directly across from the Bobcat bench. All season long, I watched Aidan Gair enthusiastically cheer on his teammates. To my knowledge, he never made it to the court. Because he never appeared in uniform, I assumed he was injured. By the season's end, I thought he would receive a medical redshirt and return next year with two years of eligibility remaining. I am sorry to see him enter the portal because I wanted to see him play. For what it is worth, he was a JUCO All-American.

Does anybody have any insight into his situation?

I think I read he was injured the whole year

It will be interesting considering the short time to build a roster his first year. And honestly a roster that very much overperformed. I expect for a couple transfers to come in.

Would be nice to get a true center to let Walker play more of a 4. Similar to what Danny did with Osobor and the big fish.

It would be sweet to get Rollie Worster - he just went into the portal. With his ability, I'm sure there are P5 schools that will pick him up though.

I bet he ends up at Washington with Danny.

Bobcat Nation favorite Casey Jones is in the Portal from EWU. One would assume he'll end up in Pullman with his old coach.

Good lord. I just assumed last year he was a senior. I feel like he has been at eastern for like 5 years already.

I love watching good players in the Big Sky, but I can’t stand his game.

Ben Krystkowiak is in the portal. Wonder if he'll get any interest from Montana or Utah? I'm not familiar with his ability, just more curious if he'd follow in his father's legacy
Surprised if he isn’t a possibility for Oregon State and Tinks.

The two teams with the fewest transfers are Purdue and UConn. We all know who is playing tonight.

Yes, but between the other 2 only 1 player started there. And they made the final 4. So that worked for them.

Are you suggesting that there is more than one "right way" to achieve your goals? That my friend is BN heresy!
