Portal closes soon, saw a WFRV interview with Sunny where he’s very bullish on the team’s portal prospects. Hoping they get a flurry of guys and quickly, or perhaps some of the guys have decided to stay, I’d honestly be fine with Antshak and Jones coming back along with Noah. I like CC3 as a player but I think we’ve kinda seen what he is and I think a more consistent upgrade to play on the wing is necessary.
I will say, Cole Henry looks like a fine get for a rotational/situational defender, but I’m holding out for actual athleticism and explosiveness the team has been lacking for years, as opposed to the “scrappy, lunch pail, first one in and last one out of the gym guys,” (what could this possibly be a euphemism for?!). Where are guys like Manny Ansong? Even Kam Cerroni was more athletic than a lot of the guys that have come thru recently and he was best known for his shooting.

I don't think Cole Henry is going to suddenly be an all conference player. I am expecting him to produce in the Cade Meyer range though.
Like Cade he isn't a great outside shooter but he has good footwork down low and at a minimum enough athletic ability for the HL.
With 5 spots to go the team definitely needs to find another ball handler and an impact scorer.
Bond and Jovanovich haven't been perimeter threats in college so far. Bond has done some decent work against low and mid majors, while Jovanovich is more of a wildcard based on past stats.
I think Bond is about the same stuff that Wicks is. I think he is an athletic, big wing who plays defense. He would be a nice addition for sure.
Suemnick and Scott Ebube are other big guys in the portal that at least have some connections to the staff or region. Both would be good in the HL and both have limitations that probably keep them from being all conference guys.

Yes the portal closes soon no one else is going anywhere. Yalden is like Antshak. Augilard like cc. Luke Hartle played football in high school quarterback so probably good passer probably tough kid 2,000 point scorer in high school would be interesting. Bring back 3 guys? Noah, Antshak, and jones seems unlikely?

In the new Kyle Malzahn article he said Logan Pearson is close to making a decision. And uwgb is in the final teams. That would be huge I think. Still would need another big a Yalden a Antshak coming back or jones coming back whatever that is.

Chucky Hepburn just entered the portal……No, I don’t think GB is on his list of teams but UW is now looking for an experienced PG who can score…..Sounds like a certain GB PG who’s in the portal right now.

Wisconsin went after Noah Reynolds last year don’t know about this year? So to be clear uwgb won’t look at chucky Hepburn why?

Jaylen Searles will visit tomorrow. 6'8" lanky wing, he'd be a nice Eli Jones replacement.

Good for him, he's found a comfort zone and a level where he will get pt. My bet is he'll be better able to pursue a grad degree seamlessly.

Tyler Henry makes his decision at 2:30. Has a uwgb scholarship. Averaged 20 ppg in the national tournament the juco. And 15 ppg during the regular season originally from the city of Chicago . Not the biggest guard 6’2. Could use a guard with Noah and and Ryan being gone. Angelo winkel has visit to northern Arizona this week.

Green Bay has just landed a transfer. I'm guessing Searles. Any other guesses?

The new player is not Jaylon seyars he just visited with a tweet that said #notcommited. So Henry is new. Reynolds is gone. Jones has lots of interest maybe Antshak could come back. If the assiantant coach is Jordan McCabe he has a connection to Patrick Summenick.
