[TweederGMU]

One analyst's views on Carrington:

Does he know Dinkins is our PG for the next few years possibly!?

This analysis point is way off. SG is open as of next year and could see a lot of mins.

And Fernandez likely will get some of his minutes at the 3.

A roster like Mason's is perfect for a 2023 guard who wants to play year one --- we have three sixth-year seniors in our 2022 backcourt.

The minutes available at the 2 and 3 will depend highly on Blake Jones being able to play the 4 by his junior season and if Nnaji is actually a wing or more of a 4 (English says he’s a wing, but we will see).

I expect minutes will always be available to players who are good enough to earn significant playing time, regardless of the preseason depth charts.

If Carrington doesn’t want a chance to earn meaningful minutes as a freshman, somebody else will. Fortunately he plays the easiest position on the planet to recruit — there are a gazillion talented SGs and I wouldn’t be surprised if Kim plucked one out of the portal to go with an incoming freshman in the 23 class.

Have something with Mason So coming out this week to recap his visit. Rich Barron is coming in for an official in a couple of weeks. There is hope that Brandon Williams reschedules his official.

Carry on.

 

[Junkees9]

Why didn't Brandon Williams make his visit?

 

[GreenLantern]

Carlton Carrington, the No. 99 overall prospect in the 2023 class, is set to make his college decision today at 11:00 AM ET live on @CBSSportsHQ.

[GMU1983]

I didn't know that missing out on Carrington stripped English of his ability to recruit any and all talent going forward.

Last time I checked he is still pretty pretty good.

 

[GMU1983]

just a joke

It doesn't make him a bad recruiter but this was a huge miss/fail. Carrington was a top priority for this staff and they missed out on the kid. Anytime you miss out on a priority, especially one that is from your backyard, it is not a good day. But, there are still a lot of other guys out there to get.

 

[Junkees9]

From the kid's comments, it sounds like the campus and facilities played a role in his decision.

 

[p8triotfan4life]

He will be back on the market this Spring once Capel gets fired.

A huge fail?

We lost a top 100 kid to an ACC program. That we were even in it down to the wire seems like a pretty big deal considering where our program has been the last dozen years.

How quickly people forget we were losing our prized 2 star prospects to Canisius and Loyola just 16 months ago.
