Donovan short has gotten some d2 offers but is still available. He pretty mobile could fit. There’s not a lot of size.
If you say have to say get better. What’s better a freshman big. To me he’s an experienced big. That just played in the horizon league.

To me he’s an experienced big. That just played in the horizon league. Again, what is the obsession with getting guys who have played here before? They left for a reason, and often played at a level down. It reeks of Packer fans saying, "lets sign Jordy back!" The team needs forward thinking without looking to the past to get guys that brought the program to the state it was in with Will Ryan.

If you take away him being local and previously on the team and just look at the body of work there’s not much of a reason to consider him. He has size and moves fairly well for someone his size, but the production just hasn’t been there. He put up less than 5pts and 3 rebounds per game coming off the bench for a D2 team last year. He’s had some struggles and poor situations and that sucks for him, he hasn’t been in a great situation so far, but we need people that have shown they can contribute. We need to do better.

Middling D2 guys WHO HAVE ALREADY BEEN ON THE TEAM are absolutely not what the team needs. Packers should re-sign Mason Crosby, Micah Hyde, and Jordy! Bucks need size, RUN, DON'T WALK to get John Henson! Everton, the soccer team I root for, should pull Wayne Rooney out of playing retirement, its his boyhood club, never mind he's almost 40! This Donovan Short, Brock Heffner, etc., stuff is absolute nonsense. Pull a random portal name out of a hat, I'll take them without hesitation before guys like this.

For what it's worth I'd take Short as a walk on.
He gets a chance to stay in college basketball and prove he has what it takes. GB gets a big guy that at one point did have a high level of desire to play for the Phoenix.
That seems like a win win scenario.

I fell like every time a coach puts out their Bat signal or any kind of signal for that matter, we need to play the music from the Hunger Games every time a tribute dies, an announcement is made, or someone donates something to the tributes in the game grid.

The new commitment asked him two questions:
1) "Can I get in the gym 24 hours a day"? 2) "Are we going to win"?

Not sure what to make of this one. He didn’t tag the team account or anything. Could be a player, coach, or something random.

Tons of future scholarships being offered but just vague hints as to any players for this year. I guess I don’t really understand all the secrecy if a guy has really committed, what could the holdups possibly be? Are they waiting on a shitty photo edit of them in a GB jersey to put on social media as their “announcement?” (only half joking)
