@_KnowBuddyCares @painsworth512 I think the point that Parker and I are trying to make here, is that if there's a good euro player out there that Sampson and his staff like, and that fits the culture, great! bring him on! but to go out of our way to recruit from overseas just for the sake of it makes no sense

@painsworth512 Parker, buddy, he’s a former Top 50 recruit when he came out of high school that is almost 23 years old and has 4 years of College experience and is coached under arguably the best coach in college basketball. Nobody is arguing against guys like that if you can get them lol

@painsworth512 6’11 265 pound Tarris Reed Jr exists haha he’s a monster down low 17 points and 11 rebounds to send Illinois home. He’s exactly the type of presence we hope Arafan Diane develops into

@NotWhoYouDream @painsworth512 what is the point then? that we should suddenly pivot from the recruiting tactics that have built us into one of the best programs in the nation because we lost one singular game to a team with euro players?

@Truly_jay03 @painsworth512 absolutely! but suggesting he should change up his whole recruiting tactic in order to get players from the Balkans because we lost to ONE team on a bad shooting night is absurdity

@painsworth512 I can get where both sides are coming from, but for me personally, I couldn’t care less where a player is from lol. If Coach Sampson and his staff believes a player is a fit whether he’s from Eastern Europe, or somewhere in New England I’m down for it

@NotWhoYouDream @painsworth512 but in particular, the Balkans rostered 25 players out of 1051? that's just over 2%, with no real proof of success. if the OP had mentioned Europe overall that's one thing, but they specifically called out Balkan players

@NotWhoYouDream @painsworth512 I think people are overreacting to one season tbh. Very few teams have actually rostered euro players, and fewer still are having major success with them

@painsworth512 also, our "plan" of bringing in 3 stars and developing them got us to the national championship game last season

@painsworth512 if you had your pick, would you take Burton or Johnson? I feel like they're both extremely good options

@EtiIsDope @painsworth512 our roster will have plenty of interior size next season. PG isn't the position that we really need to be big tbh

The famously poor Houston Cougars will be in the “top spending tier”
CJ (Newsweek)@CJFWrites

NEWS: @On3’s @PeteNakos reports that #LSU is expected to spend aggressively in the Men’s Basketball Transfer Portal and the reported $12 million budget for Will Wade is ‘just a starting point’ and expected to grow substantially for the 2026 season. The Tigers are listed in the top spending tier, which also includes #Duke, #NorthCarolina, #Kentucky, #Kansas, #Tennessee, #Arkansas, #Auburn, #Michigan, #Arizona, and #Houston.

@UHClayborn33 I like his fundamentals and he has the stuff you can't teach. everything else, Sampson and Co will straighten out

Arafan Diané is a giant. However, that kind of “attempt” at drawing a charge will not be tolerated in Sampson‘s program.

@PawsUpCoogs scorers for sure, but I think potentially even more important is finding a distributor. we don't have a true PG on the roster, returning or incoming

@WHNCoogs talented kid. but he was given plenty of opportunities to turn that talent into game time skills, and it never clicked this season. he got rightfully benched for two guys that helped the team win

“He could offer a program more than what he was given. . .” I want to see the guy succeed but cmon man

Ron Harwell to @PaperCityMag on his son Isiah Harwell leaving Kelvin Sampson's Houston program to enter the transfer portal: "There was no reason that he left there other than than he felt that he could do more. He could offer a program more than what he was given. . . "We were sad that we have to make the move. But we're looking out for the best interests of our son. And he needs development. He needs some offensive development. And that's what we're going to be seeking mostly from the next opportunity." Ron Harwell praised UH director of sports performance Alan Bishop for his work with Isiah: "That weight coach there really did a great job with him." He also tells PaperCity that he's grateful for the care Kelvin Sampson and the rest of the Houston coaching staff showed Isiah coming off his cleanup summer knee surgery, noting that a different coaching staff may have tried to rush him back and got him re-injured. Ron Harwell notes Isiah is in the best health he possibly could be in after this season in Sampson's Houston program. Ron Harwell says Isiah is not driven to return to the West and is open to programs anywhere in the country, including on the East Coast.

@Cyberpoounk @TieGuyTravis @LoPrestige @MarathonTheGame No clue what you’re talking about. Because there was very few bugs on launch, none of which were detrimental to gameplay. Maybe my memory is fuzzy though. You should definitely list off a few for me.

Seen some Coog fans saying we need an entire team of guys on the court who score 15 ppg and shoot 40% from 3 (oh and also maintain elite defense). I’m pretty sure every coach in America wants this lmao
