You're correct that Carr isn't a natural PG however he played that position better than Askew who couldn't beat him out.

Well you do have a point there.

Not too upset about losing Askew if a true PG comes this off season. Thats what we need. We don't need a short shooting guard who doesn't shoot very well.

Both Morris and Brumbaugh are supposed to be PGs. LOL, we shall see how that plays out.

There you have it.

I posted this last week. I don't think I've ever seen an exodus like that.

We came close when Abe Lemmons was fired.

Doesn’t Askew have to sit out a year since this is his second portal transfer?

Would like the answer also. Portal rules says one time transfer. But proably exceptions.

Ok, what's the scoop with this pick up? Can he play PG? Can he shoot? 12ppg at a small school like NMSU?

Belive he is a shooting guard. Around 40% on threes.

Glad Carr is coming back.  When he played well the team usually played well.  He’s a good player.

Slide him over to off-guard and have a rotation of Carr and Rice.  Carr can then get some rest and come in to play PG for a spell.

Prediction for starting 5:

PG - Morris

SG - Carr

SF - Mitchell

F - Allen

F/C - a healthy Disu (you could tell he was still tentative on that knee last year).  Could also see Bishop here.

1st off the Bench: Rice, Bishop and Cunningham

BIG lineup: Carr, Mitchel, Allen, Bishop, Disu

Small/press lineup: Morris, Carr, Rice, Mitchell, Bishop

If you havent noticed, im expecting big things out of Mitchell.  Can play multiple spots.

Well that sucks. Hopefully they just want feedback from the NBA on areas to work on to rise their stock next year. But it only takes 1 team to screw that up and then both is getting agents screws them out of playing college ball and if not drafted then hope a team picks th em up and gets them into the whatever letter they are on minor league basketball.

Can players work with agents now with the NIL changes? I know I have heard about football players having agents to help with NIL activities so I am wondering if hiring an agent would disqualify players from returning for college basketball.

Seriously? Don't think any of them are ready for the association.

I'm not certain with the NIL changes, but what I've read is that if a player signs with an agent they can't return.  But the NIL and the compliance department might have changed this.
