    2024 Carolina Panthers thread - WR Xavier Leggette (#32), RB Johnathan Brooks (#46), LB Trevin Wallace (#72)

    Hopefully Legette gets picked midway through the third round and serves as a lesson to Sallis that he can't trust draft guarantees and needs to come back for another year.

    2024 Carolina Panthers thread - WR Xavier Leggette (#32), RB Johnathan Brooks (#46), LB Trevin Wallace (#72)

    Legette is already 23 and had 423 receiving yards in his first four years of college combined. He played 41 games in that time, so it's not like he was constantly plagued by injuries, either. In the second round last year, we took a big, older guy who wasn't an early declare and had...

    WFU Hoops: '24-'25 Roster Construction Thread: (-) Carr, Monsanto, Ituka, Clark, Miller, Marsh, Keller, Canka / (+) Spillers, Biliew, Cosby

    Duke currently has seven players in the transfer portal and two early declarants for the draft.

    Sucks for you. I've been a fan for longer than that, and had an absolute blast attending the Duke game with one of my college buddies this year. The portal is wild, and I'm enjoying the hell out of following the rumors. Do I wish CBB could go back to where it was 30 years ago, when 1...

    From your lips to Mit's ears. Some ISU fans on Trilly's channel are whining that they lost a silent verbal because somebody came along with a bigger bag, and that their NIL is weak. Hopefully that will give us an edge. ISU got a commitment from a big a few days ago, but doesn't seem like a...

    The RTQ Collective Thread

    Is there a quick pros and cons resource of giving to the Deacon Club vs. RTQ or splitting donations?

    I would hope RTQ would light up the "Bring Hunter back" bat signal here and in-network if that became a real possibility. You can probably cue up a snide post from Angus right about now, but it seems like they could get an immediate spike in small-donor donations in that scenario and then...

    Per 247, he took official visits to Wake, Auburn, Tennessee, and Miami. Mark Mitchell to the portal.

    If Sallis is gone, I'm expecting Spillers to start at the 3 and be in the All-ACC HM conversation. I did a detailed breakdown of all of Forbes's transfers here, but Spillers is the first Forbes transfer, possibly the first in school history, to be First-Team All-Conference at his old school...

    Dell'Orso was a chucker (32.1% of shots at Campbell, #43 nationally), and doesn't fill a big positional need, but despite the volume, he was at 54.0 efFG% (#372), 58.5 TS% (279), 80.6 FT% (#327), and 38.7 3P% (#292) on 119 attempts. It seems like any kid who can shoot like that is a take...

    Reigning Sun Belt DPOY and current transfer portal entry Justin Abson retweeted Spillers's commitment. I'm curious as to whether they're close and how the staff feels about him vs. Kyle. Land either one of Abson or Kyle, and we'll be set in the frontcourt.

    Alondes took 24 3's his junior year at OU and shot 16.7%, then launched 142 for us. To date, Davion Bradford is the only (healthy, so no Ituka) transfer portal player in the Forbes era not to attempt at least 32 3's in a season. That's Efton's mark, and he obviously missed a fifth of the year...

    Spillers was First-Team All-Sun Belt on an NIT team ranked #83 in KP. On paper, it's the best portal recruit Forbes has ever brought in, and I'd expect him to get significantly more than 12 mpg. He shot 10-33 from 3 his first year of JuCo (yes, I looked it up) before seeing a dramatic...
