    Somehow UW is not picked for last place at Pac 12 media day. Cal Too High is less heralded.

    UW had only 1 player receiving preseason accolades - Daejon Davis was all pac 12 honorable mention
  • Our? new power forward.



    #nextmanup

    The position has officially been renamed Power-Bottom

    We just got a #WOOF from some kid who is not rated by any recruiting services (we beat out Boston College and Cleveland State).

    Also sounds like UW had a secret scrimmage against Boise and did pretty well

    He lead the EYBL circuit in scoring. Looks solid. Just short and skinny.

    It is a problem when your only preseason accolade player is one you didn’t develop for 4 years and is a super senior transfer.

    And your best player is another grad transfer that wasn't developed in the program...two one and dones- what many people were crying about with LoRo.

    Who has Mike Hopkins developed going on 5 seasons? Nate Roberts? Jamal Bey? Cole Bajema? Elijah Hardy? Marcus Tsohonis? RaeQuan Battle? J'Raan Brooks? Nate Pryor? Riley Sorn? Erik Stevenson? Bryan Penn-Johnson?

    The UW MBB program has no foundation going on Mike Hopkins 5th season at Montlake and is overly reliant on transfers not HS recruits making up the main core of the roster.

    No Romar hype here man. He sucked and had sucked for years by the time he got fired. One and dones only help if you have the team already set up.
    And if you go back and look at LoRo's returning roster and incoming recruiting class the year that he was fired he had that finally figured out. Romar had a potential roster featuring experienced upperclassmen (Noah Dickerson, Matisse Thybulle, David Crisp, Dominic Green, Matthew Atewe) to mix with talented incoming freshman (Michael Porter Jr, *Jontay Porter, Daejon Davis, Jaylen Nowell, Mamoudou Diarra, Blake Harris). *Jontay Porter had reclassified to 2017 as well. That HS recruiting class was ranked #2 in the Nation at the time.

    No longer would the recruits have to come in and lead on the court but they would just have to fit in with talented experienced players in the rotation to guide them both on and off of the court.

    The main reason Dickerson and company stayed at the UW after LoRo was fired is because Romar advised them not to transfer so Mike Hopkins got some talented experienced players playing with a chip on their shoulders for two seasons to show that they weren't the reason that Romar was fired. And Jaylen Nowell had a promise made to his father, who had just passed away at the time, to attend the UW so he stayed committed while the rest of LoRo's recruiting class went elsewhere to college.

    Now we have this Mike Hopkins clusterfuck. He is in an even worse situation than LoRo was when he was fired. Mike Hopkins, after LoRo's recruits left Montlake, followed the LoRo blueprint by recruiting one and dones (Stewart, McDaniels) to a roster devoid of upperclassman leadership.

    Mike Hopkins is doing all of this while being paid much more than Romar ever was to lead the UW MBB program. Romar never finished in last place in the Pac 12.

    Going on five seasons at Montlake Mike Hopkins hasn't laid a program foundation built up by HS recruits his top 3 players this season are all one and done transfers (Davis, Brown, Matthews) while Bey is a senior as well.

    Next season's the potential depth chart based on this year's official team roster https://gohuskies.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster currently looks like (*Bey/Matthews can return as a 5th year Seniors if they choose to do so. If Bey/Matthews don't return then one scholarship will still be open for 2022 recruiting):

    CP: Roberts (R-SR), Sorn (R-SR)
    PF: Wilson (SR), Grant (SO), Ariyibi (SO)
    SF: Bajema (SR), Lindhart (FR)
    SG: Fuller (SR)
    PG: Penn (JR), Johnson (FR), Menifield (FR)

    That potential roster would most likely be projected as another very weak team UW MBB team under Mike Hopkins who has shown that he can not develop nor coach up talent.

    If both Bey and Mathews return to the UW then the 2022-23 UW MBB roster would most likely look something like this:

    CP: Roberts (R-SR), Grant (SO), Sorn (R-SR)
    PF: Matthews (5th SR), Wilson (SR), Ariyibi (SO)
    SF: Bey (5th SR), Bajema (SR), Lindhart (FR)
    SG: Fuller (SR)
    PG: Penn (JR), Johnson (FR), Menifield (FR)

    Still a very lackluster roster with very little upside to excite the UW MBB fanbase and supporters.
