Xavier's Dailyn Swain will Visit Kentucky & Arkansas

that's fine if you have the scorer's, which UK does not have at this time.

Key words…at this time.

Patience bro

Texas spent 16 million dollars on a roster last year. The results are irrelevant. They have money to spend. And that is last year's number. Who knows what they are investing this year? Compare that to the 6 million in NIL Kentucky is reported to have available and the disadvantage becomes crystal clear. Yet, many on this board flat-out refuse to see it and spend most of their time attacking anyone pointing this out. That's such a fruitless endevor and I'm convinced they are mainly trying to convince themselves.

In their tourney loss to Illinois I was impressed!
27, 8 boards, 3 assists, 3 steals, 0 turnovers and 3-5 from 3.
Love his game and what he can develop into.

Me too, I was hoping we showed interest in him. His team mate Conwell is solid as well.

I don't understand the fit with this one.

He seems to have pretty good handles, and he shoots well from the perimeter. Plus, with his length, it should/would add to perimeter defense/rebounding. For the SG/SF positions, I could totally see a rotation w/Oweh, Jasper Johnson, Kam Williams, and Swain.


Plus, at 6'8 220 lbs, Swain could also give you a small ball PF option for spot minutes...especially if Kam Williams at 6'8 200ish lbs was
at the 3.

Not saying that's how it will happen, but just saying I CAN see how it would fit. I know that introduces the question of mins/game with all those guys, but that's a discussion between them and Pope.

I hope pope doesn’t panic and start taking 3rd tier guys just to fill out the roster

The only people in panic mode are on this here board. haha

read somewhere today that the SEC set the record for$ earned from the SEC by sending 14 teams to the tournament. I forgot what the amount listed was, but it was a lot. How is this $ distributed? Is it equally divided or is it based on each team's advancement?

Going by memory here, but the revenue is divided evenly kinda and accumulated by way of units. I think the schools directly get money based on participation in the bowl games, college world series and the NCAA tourney. So the SEC must hold a little back for the schools who perform well in those big revenue post season actions.

Fantastic defensive player. He is capable of scoring inside and driving. He put up 27 against Illinois. I wanted him and Conwell when Miller left for TX

 

[Eccain01]

On3 has Swain as the #1 SF in the portal currently and the #20 overall. 24/7 has him at #17 overall and the #2 SF.

How is that sub 50?

Because apparently if it isn’t Lebron James they suck.

Bummer.

 

[BarefootBeach]

We already have a Swiss army knife so this kid was kinda redundant. We also have chandler and Noah getting sf minutes too.

 

[cornbreadnmilk]

Well that sucks. Why bother to schedule visits if you don't plan on showing up?

You leave Austin without committing and are headed to Kentucky for a visit .. Texas calls his agent and ups their offer .. boom

 

[Tampa_cat54]

I'm not bummed. Glad to be honest. 25% 3FG and a guy who struggled to score most of the year. Would rather not have a guy play 20+ MPG who is not a threat on one end of the floor (same could be said about a guy who is all offense and no defense).

 

[Fox2monk]

I think this “recruitment” if you can call it that show how quickly things in the portal change and how not serious a lot of guys are about a lot of schools. Just using them for a pay boost.

**** them all just make them assholes over pay that should be Pope’s next job. Here is what Pope should do if it isn’t one that Pope really wants just go after them anyway. I would do it for say instance another SEC school and drive that process right through the damn rough.
