Disputed Report Randolph Transferring (REFUTED BY MACK AND RANDOLPH)

[waggy]

I hope Brandon really does stay.

A big part of that though is I hope he progresses quite a bit too.

The thing is, those you teams you mentioned who don't have true points typically aren't very good.

Look at the top 25.

UK has Ulis.
Duke has Tyus Jones
Virginia has Perantes (sp?)
Villanova has Arcidiacano
Arizona has McConnell
Wisconsin has Jordan Taylor
Gonzaga has Pangos
Kansas has Frank Mason
ND has demetrius jackson
Wichita has Van Vleet
Iowa State has Monte Morris
Louisville has Q Snider
Oklahoma has Woodard
Baylor has Kenny Chery
Utah has Delon Wright
WVU has Staten
UNC has Paige
SMU has Nic Moore
Arkansas has Madden
Butler has Barlow
Georgetown has Smith-Rivera


The only team in the top 25 that doesn't really have a true point is Maryland. They use both Dez and Trimble in that role.

You are correct that there are a lot of college teams that don't have a true point. There just aren't a lot of good ones that don't.

Look I'd love it if Sumner ended up being able to run the point here. I just think it's a lot more likely he ends up playing off the ball.

Jordan Taylor??? hasn't played college basketball since 2012....

Rick Broering who runs the site is a local guy. He's appeared on a few Cincinnati TV stations to discuss sports.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but his main focus is Xavier, but he also reports on Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky high school football and basketball.

Brian Snow, who used to run the Xavier Scout page, is now a national writer for them, but he routinely still posts on the Xavier message board.

Correct. Rick is mostly Xavier and local HS football. Brian is a national Scout basketball recuiting "analyst" covering mostly the midwest -- both schools and recruits.

What a 2019 recruit had for breakfast is really not terribly interesting news.

Not if the recruit in question was Johnny Wolf (circa 2009).

Waggy, I must say you're looking better!

Oh, and yeah, what you said...

I'm right there with you.

I really think Xavier is a pretty good situation for a PG. It's wide open next year. You are competing with a guy who was a pretty highly regarded recruit but is suffering what sounds like pretty severe tendonitis to the point that I'm not sure he's even practicing much this year, and another guy who was a 3 star recruit that has seen fairly limited playing time. It's not like you have an entrenched starter you have to beat out or a top 5 recruit coming in, and even if Austin gets the start there could very well be backup minutes available - particularly is Sumner ends up playing wing.

Add some talented teammates in guys like Blueitt, Reynolds, and Macura, to the mix and you have a pretty good situation for a PG.

Looks like Randolph is indeed transferring:

It's been a great two years at Xavier university I want to thank all the coaches. It's been a blessing being in the program. I look forward

Good luck kid. Best wishes to your success.
