Yates zoom call

Who’s better, Pierre or Yates? Seen highlights of Pierre and only heard Yates name last night so I know nothing on him other than 40+% 3 point shooter. Just curious to what others think about their games.
They are two similar, yet different players. Yates is probably a better shooter (43.5% from 3) and is the more physical of the two, as he's like 225 lbs. Pierre is still a good shooter (38% from 3) and probably the overall more skilled and athletic player of the two. Pierre is quick and explosive and he can kill you in a variety of ways....slashing, mid-range jumpers, 3 ball, etc. Yates is like Koby Brea in Kelenna Azubuike's body. Pierre is more of a Derek Anderson/Allen Edwards type. I'd happily take either or both. Pierre will only have one more year though, whereas Yates will only be a sophomore, so there is that angle to consider too if you can only take one of them.
 
I like Sisk. He sits on things sometimes unless he feels better about saying it. This report was from convo with Yates high school coach.
Dude you need to stop spreading these false reports. I’m an HOB member and read Sisk’s article. He didn’t even speak with the HS coach. And a USC return wasn’t presented as a definite, it was said to be a possibility. The article didn’t reveal anything new really.

First line word for word, “I spoke with former coach of Wesley Yates”. I also never once said USC was definite. lol false info get outta here man.
 
Are you referring to the post with the write up about Yates that Sisk made on HOB around 10:00?
Nope 9:51 pm. And if you would have read the thread you’d have saw that I updated the one you’re referencing afterward lol

I don’t mind being called out for inaccuracy but if you’re going to call me out for inaccuracy try to be accurate. Also, never ascribe to malice what could be explained otherwise. For all you knew, I could have simply misunderstood the report.

My bad. I didn’t read the comments so I didn’t see his update, just the original posts.

Also, be careful sharing premium info even if it’s verbal. I got warned a couple of times for sharing premium info verbally.
Right now looking at TOS and they have the literal screenshots of both Sisk updates on there. They are common knowledge, if I didn’t have HOB I’d still know the updates.

Ok somewhat positive update. USC probably not option after all because Yates wouldn’t start…so right back to where we were lol
He wouldn’t start at USC but he’s a can’t miss prospect? Makes no sense to me. I’d love to have him because of his shooting numbers but if his ask is that high and he can’t start on their garbage team. I question that report.

They have 3 guards signed for next year including Gilbert Arenas' kid who is a top 10 guy at the same position

Pope is recruiting like it's 2020. Zoom calls aren't working. Today, you basically have to ask the agent how much it'll take and then just write the check.
What's this? You don't believe in the power of sending some good vibes to recruits through a Zoom conversation? Who needs to offer NIL market value or above when you can offer good vibes?

Is it the zoom calls that aren't working or the fact that kids don't want to have to split minutes and work for the starting spot? We've pretty clearly got the budget to compete if we've actually got $8-10 million.

As a younger person, zoom calls are fine, and a great way to get a foot in the door. I've done dozens of interviews via zoom. It's fine for what it is.

Would love to land him & Pierre, I wonder if there’s a chance Oweh stays in the draft or if it’s either Yates or Pierre to pair with Oweh?? Can’t see both coming if Oweh stays but then who do you take if both want to be Cats?? That’s why they make millions lol, for decisions like this but I just hope it’s not another swing and miss on either.
 
Yeah but he’s only a four star recruit and is a freshman, he should be starting over him.
It's probably another one of those situations, like Klutch players, where the handler(s) make you promise to start and play the kid no matter what.
In this case, Gilbert Arenas isn't going to let his kid play second fiddle to anybody.
Calipari fell victim to this crap several times over his last 5 years.
I'm so glad we are done with being held hostage by bad players and their handlers.
