They can re-focus on getting someone better... or just bank it for the next freshman class.

Seriously though, what did Noah Reynolds do to you personally?

Not a thing, just sick of transfers that have zero upside and sour on their past teams. Look, he couldnt even stay committed for a few weeks.

He seemed to be a pretty good shooter/shot creator actually. He had a good eFG with a massively high usage. His problem was turnovers, which probably improves in the rigid Wisconsin offense and under a coach that seems to be good at limiting them.

Still probably the 5th guard after Storr came in but I thought he had some upside.

He would have been a huge boost to our half court offense. Undeniably a very good self creator off the dribble.

Agree , don't know much about the kid and didn't see him play , but his stats weren't exactly overwhelming. Was thinking at the time that we could have done better and we did (Storr)

He's a really good shooter, his 3 point% was down because of the shot difficulty on an undertalented team in a good conference.

He'll have a really good career. He has family in Green Bay, plus his brother is now an assistant there. I could see Noah and his brother landing there.

The formality of every year, Gard's contract extended another year out to 2028. It means nothing, but people will lose their minds.

I do think chonestown and I are in good shape with PP on the "will Gard be coach at the start of '23" bet. Bring back OT: Pants.

I get that they do this every year, which I have no problems with, but what I don’t understand is why are they extending it when it’s already out that far?

4 years for recruiting purposes is kind of the standard around college sports. It’s basically built in/assumed if they want to fire him. Let him have the leeway of a 4 year deal to do his job and it’s the cost of doing business if you want to fire.

Noah Reynolds does indeed land in Green Bay.

I feel like they're going to get Freitag. Kinda mixed on it - they've been prioritizing him for a very long time, he's a top 100 recruit, he seems like a good floor general, athlete, etc. but I've recently seen reports that his shooting leaves something to be desired.

Seems like he's going to pick basketball - this is coming from my uninformed opinion of knowing almost nothing about this.

I'm squarely for Freitag. Will be a big get, at least as big as Chucky. I like him a lot.

Weird thing is, Storr might be their biggest post-Johnny acquisition when all is said and done.
