ZZZips Posted April 25, 2024 Report Share Posted April 25, 2024 Why is Pat Mayfield on this chart if it is supposed to be current? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure just an oversight since we don't pay as close attention to walk ons as we do scholarship players.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahaffey is the only guaranteed redshirt IMO. You can't redshirt Young and risk him leaving without any production in the Akron uniform. Brisco was previously a guaranteed redshirt candidate, but there's a chance he gets minutes with Okonkwo & Lyles. I don't know if MMK is as much of a 4/5 as Brisco seems to be.

And even if he doesn't play "ahead of" Tavari (at least at first), he'll still get significant playing time. This team only has 2 true PGs - Tavari & Young. Wilson is more of an off the ball guard that can slot into PG in a pinch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illini Zip Posted April 29, 2024 Report Share Posted April 29, 2024 Ryan Prather Jr departs. Zips add Bowen Hardman. Note: Prather was the sole Sophomore on the team going into 2024-25. Now we have Seniors, Juniors and Freshmen only. In 2025-26 we have Seniors and Sophomores. 2026-27 Juniors only. 2027-28 Seniors only. I think it's safe to assume that this class balance will likely change again next year. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let'sGoZips94 Posted yesterday at 02:34 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 02:34 AM Sounds like Scott and Okonkwo will be back next year, should they choose to be. Barring any transfers, we would have no scholarships left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Illini Zip Posted yesterday at 02:58 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 02:58 AM If we have any scholarships available I would seek to pick up a big bodied guard to replace the role of Gray and Wilson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zippy87 Posted yesterday at 04:24 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 04:24 AM Assuming Okonkwo and Scott do return... Okonkwo/Lyles/Brisco Harris/MMK N. Johnson/Mahaffey Scott/Hardman T. Johnson/Young Could see Mahaffey and Brisco as possible transfers? I have to think JG would want one more guard to add to the mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have not heard anything about Brisco yet, but Groce likes Mahaffey. He’s a tall, long guard who will be playing some next year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
