Based on JG's statement that Royce is gone, there is a hole for immediate PT next year at the 3/4. What are the odds to Coach Smith being able to get on the radar of a legit forward who we haven't recruited this late for the spring period? Or does the scholarship go in the bank or to a JUCO?

There will be talented forwards available in the spring.

Who is that?
I really don't think there are any uncommitted 4/5-star guys that are even remotely interested in the U. Its not that they have anything against the Gophers, it's just that Tubby didn't feel he needed to pursue a top-notch forward because he thought he had White and Mbakwe.

There will be some, no doubt. Late bloomers. Kids who didn't sign or de-committed. Prep schoolers and JuCo players.

Interest in November means NOTHING about signing in April.
