Having him on the floor is going to help sustain our bigs. His ability to get to the line can get the opponents’ post players in trouble.

I've seen my guys play. I'm not worried. Let's play some basketball. How good is the Horizon League this year? Best in what...11-12 years? I’m just poking at you since you were the one to break the news. This season just got a lot more interesting. Happy to see him back.

You have to read down a bit in the article to understand the Huskes reference. *suppresses urge to continue decade-old rant about mascot*

That’s a lot of shots on goal 😬 Excellent job spinning it to a positive headline, though!

Could Tanner come in as a walk on next year and pay his tuition? That is not going to happen It may not be feasible in this case, but I’m also curious as to would it be possible for any transfer. Is the transfer rule based on scholarship or overall eligibility?

Agree with this. However last time we tried this we got CJ Wilbourne, who couldn't carve out many minutes (granted, he was hurt part of that time). Given Nagy's track record of not playing a deep rotation or players he doesn't trust, the transfers may be reluctant to come here knowing they would be the third big behind BNoel and AJ, and they may not get those 10-15 minutes a game. We aren’t really looking for a true post player. We are looking at 6-6 to 6-8 forwards in the portal and JUCO ranks. We aren’t trying to bring in someone to be the 3rd guy playing center for us. AJ and Brandon can handle those minutes. We are looking for someone who can play the 4 in our system which can even be a big guard or SF as long as they can rebound. We only have 3 guaranteed starters next year: Calvin, Holden, and Noel (and Noel could start at the 4 or 5). The other starting spots are still really up for grabs so we should be able to sell that potential to a portal kid. Worst case scenario, they have a chance to earn major minutes as a backup. Best case scenario, they earn a starting spot. Ask and ye shall receive: we’ve signed a 6’5” forward out of D-2 Malone. Bo Myers shot .424 from 3 and averaged 8 reb a game in his 4th season. Both second in the conference. Spreads the floor and crashes the boards.

Those bases were looking a little crowded. Good job by Patrick to clear them all with one swing. Raiders up 5-0 in the 2nd

A little classic GBV doesn't hurt.... Uh oh. We could turn this into a GBV thread reeeaaaal quick. That said, it should be known Homage is putting out an anniversary green shirt as opposed to the less flattering yellow version I and many others have (though it’s one of the Things I Will Keep) Here’s a link if anyone’s interested in celebrating this particular slice of Raider history.

Even though there’s quite a bit of competition in southwest Ohio and Ohio in general it could - IN THEORY now be possible for a star athlete to pay for all academic costs and therefore a roster spot via advertising and endorsements.
Tanner may be able to get some cash from a donor in exchange for all (or more likely some) enrollment money in order to play.
I’m sure a major conference school or mid major in a small market will be taking this approach sooner than later. BG seems to be looking at the new rules as a new opportunity. WSU could be among the first to try something like this.
Again: in theory. My theory. Which I admit could be insane
…or ingenious. 😏

Raiders made ESPN Top 10 (#6) for the outstanding catch!
