Haarms Announcing Tomorrow
- Thread starter Tampa_cat54
- Start date
Oh man. And I was starting to be confident...
Who, in their right mind, would want any high school big over that? Why can't we keep a 3 star on the roster in the 7-2 to 7-4 range all the time. Teach him to be a great shot blocker and rebounder.

Dude give it a rest.
You're sounding like Tubby with Jared Carter and Shagari Alleyne and Lukasz Orbzut.
If was because he is foul prone and did not start every game. So we need to adopt a slogan to keep him on the floor.
No Haarm / No Foul.
No Haarm Don't Foul
Because it will be No Haarm if he fouls at the rate he did at Purdue. He tends to reach over the shoulder a bunch on rebounds. That is his biggest weakness, he has to improve his rebounding. For a guy 7-3, no need to reach. He needs to learn positioning, and he has a habit of losing balls because of lack of strength in his hands. 1-2 rebounds a game. That is the biggest knock I have read on him from the scouting reports. He also is not exactly the most fluid / nimble guy running the floor.
Strong points - He can rim protect with the best of them, has a nice little jump shot and over the shoulder little jump hook. Needs to extend his range and be more consistent with his jumper. Will be a great addition and definitely fills a very important position of need.
I doubt he's going to change very much about his style- a guy who is foul prone will keep being foul prone.
I agree that certainly played a big part, but there were plenty of games where he was not in foul trouble (he only averaged 2 fouls/game), where he still played extremely limited minutes.
I did not watch enough of Purdue to know why, but either way, we NEED another big who can play significant minutes at the 5.
Hey Nick. Nick Richards. There’s a guy here who wants to talk to you.
Yeah, but we have Kenny now. Those type of tall guys would get better and better.
Exactly, bud. I’ll be so pissed if we get screwed out of another basketball season. I think my wife is preparing for me to blow the roof off our home if that were to happen.

GBB!
Probably because he only started 15 out of 29 (50%) games last year. So when you only start half the time, you are not going to get 35 minutes per game.And he was also injured for part of the year. So when he first came back, his minutes where limited. His Sophomore year he only started 23 out of 36 games. One other big concern, he only averages a little over 2 free throws attempted per game. A guy of his height and weight should be shooting a lot more than that. But, he shies away from contact. he has to be more physical and command attention, which is why he also has a poor rebounding average for a guy his size.
I think Ware is around 6’8” now. Not 100% sure on that, though.
Now, no use to be bitter. Maybe he wanted to give himself better odds at a Championship than zero for eternity.
I recommend you PU fans console yourself with some literature. Hemingway’s “Farewell to Haarms” would seem appropriate.
Nope. I wish he would’ve stayed but if he wants starter minutes I don’t blame him for leaving. I’ll always be a fan of his.
Ware is significantly taller than that and I don’t think that is a lineup anyone would want to see. You basically have one guy who is a 2 or 3 and the rest are a 4 or 5. Talk about a lot of pressure on Boston, who isn’t a PG, to facilitate.
Extra perk to this commitment:
If Haarms marries Hami Diallo's sister, they could name their son Haarmadou Diallo.

Vintage Pitino says:
"Glenn Robinson is not walkin' through that door [pronounced: Do-Wah], fans. Cuonzo Martin's not walkin' through that door. And if they do walk through that door, they're going to be gray and old and still end up losing to Duke by ten in the Elite Eight."
Good hands? Nobody has mentioned/answered that on here. But I'm hopping and wishing he commits to us.
Jackson will back up Haarms.
Haarms probably plays between 25 to 30 minutes per game. Jackson plays the other 10-15 minutes at the 5.
We are set with Haarms, IMHO.
We are not hoping this guy is nothing he has proved it at the highest level, shagari and woo I love them both but they couldn't hold this boys jock strap !! He is a rim protector and a good mid range shooter as well as rolling to the basket ,also with the team we got coming this guy if he gets us 6/7 rebs and a few blocks is all we will need!!
Also he had a big in front of him at purdue in 6-10 trevion William's.....so what makes people think he cant play 30m a game ....?
Folks in Lexington?
We have had not one but two Lexington guys basically break the story that UK has a transfer commit locked up.
“Then” the Crystal blue persuasions started up.
Maybe Matty Matty Bang Bang is butt hurt no one told him ish.
I knew we were screwed when this was wrote.
haha, this thread is pretty funny reading back. All the confidence in the world and no idea why. Bottom line is this guy wouldn't have done well at UK and its best for everyone. Not bashing the kid, hes a very good player, but he wouldn't have done well here.
