2020-2021 Notre Dame’s Men’s Basketball

[RDU Irish]

Don’t think it had anything to do with us not making room.

My point is, we had an absolute need for bodies and let a quality D1 prospect who pretty much grew up on campus get away. I'm not sure if Brey has ever used all 13 scholarships - "room" was never a remote concern. Took the kid next door for granted and didn't hardly recruit him all - I know Brey is lazy on the trail but damn.

Jaden Ivey is having a decent freshman year (better than what I expected). Too bad Brey didn't pursue him harder. How do you think he would've done for ND had he came here instead of Purdue?

He's having a decent year ... really inconsistent though. Flashes of being very talented as he matures at the college level. He's barely shooting 50% @ FTs and slightly over 20% for 3 pointers. He had (2) 3's late in the game last night (including the game winner), but was 0-4 for 3 pointers earlier in the game including (2) air balls.

nor do I. Brey just didn't land him.

Surprised it was missed in this thread that Brey just signed a 5 star prospect: Alex Wade 2021 PG 5 Star Recruit

Not sure that "5 star" heading on the link is accurate. Has no good offers and I don't see where it actually shows that he is a 5 star recruit.

My bad I forgot the italics for sarcasm. He's not even close to ACC level talent let alone mid-major. My only hope is that he's a walk-on and not scholarship, but it's not clear from the tweet.

Yes, he's a high quality walk-on

I'd trade my 8 year old for Cormac Ryan at this point - he can't be that bad.

I am with you, everything we heard about Cormac Ryan I was expecting more out of him this year.

From what I recall, he didn't shoot that great his year with Stanford, but there was talk about that was primarily due to playing through an injury. Anyhow, we all expected a good shooter to show up, so far it's not happened.

Is that a pic from 1928?

He is a college junior - at this point if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck....

[ab2cmiller]

Looks like Brey started all of the reserves trying to light a fire under the guys.

Hubb is soooo much better playing off the ball.

Nice win over Miami. Maybe the tide is turning. Probably not.
