If we land him, East is no longer all that big a loss — & Davis is perhaps a chemistry liability at that pt. Not saying I wouldn't want Davis at that pt — but even if we do the unlikely & land him, I think it's pretty clear we want the majority of our offense initiated by this man, Rudi Williams.

If we land Rudi & this Josiah kid from Kansas City — I think besides a true 5 my next wish is an athletic SG with handles who's at least 6'4.

With the Portal as chock full as it is, my guess is Pope's targeted a couple bigs he hopes to land late as PWOs. But a lot of teams are likely thinking the same, so that might be a hard task this offseason despite all the choices.
