Maybe they paid some cash but I'm not impressed with taking the Arizona center, Ballo I think, and the coug.
Our portal haul from what I'm reading is way beyond what Indiana did last year. Taking Yates from SC especially.

I haven't been to a game since the 2004 Arizona Nate superdunk game.
I might have to go to a game this season.

I took my father in law to the Indiana game. Never seen such a sorry group of losers. The body language was atrocious. Great, Frank and Zoom were the only guys with any fire in the belly that day. Not a surprise that the two of the three with eligibility left are the only two that were asked back.

It's cool and all to be getting a nice recruiting class but I'm not yet sold on Sprinkle's coaching.
How they used Great Osobor was embarrassing.
6'8 power forward, they had him catching the ball on the perimeter and creating/backing his guy down from there as an actual offensive strategy.
They couldn't figure out how to get the guy looks in the post all season. How is that possible?
Preseason All American to All Big 10 Honorable Mention? The fuck?

To be clear - I still think Sprinkle has what it takes and can get us there. But, I do think that with the recruiting/transferring this year, it's pretty darn close to win or GTFO. This is his third program that he's had to build. He missed the mark last year, ok, here's your second chance. He should know what to do and be able to get us to tourney time.

My last game was the Dominic Green buzzer beater over Arizona. I think I’ve been to like 5 UW BB games ever. My buddy went to high school with Artem Wallace, and he hooked us up with great seats a couple times back in the day. That guy is crazy, but hilarious. Surprisingly good bowler too.

Was going to go to a game or two just to support Sprinkle as well and kind of forgot about it.

Outside of an occasional Harris floater in the lane or a hard drive to the basket from Zoom, none of the guards could create their own shot. Defenses sagged the paint because they didn’t fear any shooter on the floor and dared UW to try to get Great the ball with multiple defenders hedging his way. Believe it or not, the best offense this roster had was Osobor backing down his defender and using his elite vision to find an open shooter when the double came. If the double didn’t come, Great was pretty good at missing point blank layups. He probably could have averaged 8 assists a game if anyone could hit a wide open shot with regularity.

Idk… Harris and Mason were pretty good perimeter shooters by season's end and nothing changed.
Regardless of how defenses decide to play you… you have to then make the adjustment and make them pay for not playing honest. Sprinkle never figured that out.
