He isn't "limited" he's a proven shooter that just averaged 17 a game and has several years of d1 experience. And he's got some hops. He's a volume shooter that shoots a high percentage, that would be joining a team that desperately needs shooting. He would be a much better fit that some mistake prone freshman, which they all tend to be, some worse than others
Timberlake announces some time this week.

Arterio morris would be kind of a weird fit. Talented prospect, very similar tools elmarko Jackson, but a year older. He was a back up guard for Texas. Originally committed to Chris beard, played one year at Texas

Arterio bleeding is the most dangerous kind.

I think I would prefer Mgbako for the shooting, but Holland would be a big get too.

Juan
Jackson or Morris
Timberlake
KJ
Dickinson

Udeh, Jackson or Morris, Johnson, maybe Adams off the bench.

Clear that we're looking to get a big wing still. If it's Mgbako, stuff gets interesting. Not sure you can play him with KJ and Dickinson. Tyson might be a better fit.

Don't think Tyson is on the radar anymore, sounds like he's going to Cal.

If KJ can start hitting from 15 feet out consistently with an occasional top of the key 3 this year. Whew buddy. Watch out.

Lest we forget, McCullar *could* be back next year. Still has his eligibility remaining.

He better make us his mind soon. The way we are picking up transfers. We might have to add a wing

With McCullar getting an invite to the Combine I'm even less convinced of his chances of coming back. And I that bar was pretty low for me to begin with.

I really like McCullar, but I never thought he was a great fit next to a PG with limited shooting/scoring ability. That’s still the case, and as much as he brings defensively, I think the best version of this team starts two dynamic scorers in the backcourt next to Harris.
