glduck Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 i thought he might stick since he's a garfield kid but i'd certainly love to get him. with losing boucher and (the likelihood keeps going up) bell i thought we might be after an additional big man (alongside mccoy, hopefully) but i keep forgetting we snagged paul white, that former top 50 georgetown transfer. if we can land mccoy, mccoy/KBW/white/cage should make for a good inside rotation.

Watch him go to Gonzaga. http://www.scout.com/college/basketball/recruiting/story/1765841-uw-signee-daejon-davis-asks-out-of-his-loi?s=128 He committed to UW when we landed 4* SG Victor Bailey. I don't know if he's changed his mind on wanting to compete with another incoming Fr. I'd gladly take both, but honestly I think Bailey is going to blow up at UO. Kids game is still raw, but he reminds me a lot of Westbrook. He's an athletic freak, I've seen multiple dunks by him with his head above the rim. I'm hopeful we still land McCoy, and I've been hearing we will be getting a big time stretch 4 grad transfer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All Hail Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 Cals best recruit, Jamearl Baker, has decommitted. Welcome to the Wyking Jones era. Ucla, have fun with Jordan Brown. Too bad he won't be in Lamelo's class as those two could have Won a title together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBug708 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Would love to see UCLA land Baker. We are missing a true 2G in the class and we could use his shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Hail Posted April 1, 2017 Author Share Posted April 1, 2017 Davis is probably heading to Stanford. McCoy is not going to UNLV, he's been an Oregon silent for months now. I'm surprised you don't know this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBug708 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Jemarl Baker is leaning towards Utah right now, which means a commit to Arizona is eminent. There have been hints on the UCLA board that Lavar Ball is kind of dictating offers for UCLA, at the guard spot, because of Liangelo. We are seeing the price of Lonzo, if true.

RogueDuck Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 All your favorite duck reporter who's a Lute actually, is saying he's hearing Jock Landale could be transferring to UO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glduck Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I've heard that too. Some strange rumors floating around right now, including KBW redshirting to refine his game to better his chances at an eventual NBA shot. Sounded like fan bunk to me, but I've heard it from two very different places so..? I thought we'd be a bit thin up front even with Landale if KBW redshirted, but outside of Cage and hopefully McCoy I keep forgetting about Paul White. That's 4 guys 6'9 or taller, and Keith Smith played Brooks' role at the 4 pretty well defensively in a limited role this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Hail Posted April 6, 2017 Author Share Posted April 6, 2017 I very much doubt Landale goes to Oregon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? He shot over 40% from 3 last year and avg 21 a game, and this year he avg over 18 a game. He'll be asked to replace Dorsey, who avg 12 a game, as the 3-4th option until the tourney. He's not being asked to be a star, just a role player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glduck Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 based on what i've read up on him, he's just a volume shooter, and not an overly efficient one. in a terrible 1-bid conference he shot a considerably lower % from the floor than any duck save for charlie noebel, our beloved walk-on. by all reports he's disinterested in defense and served a suspension last year for lack of effort. beyond all that, though, does his game translate from ball-hog chucker to a 3rd or 4th option on a team with its sights on the tournament? (i'm asking, i don't know. but nothing about him screams can't-miss transfer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
