Not too broken up about Tipler.ย  Did we really need a 3rd or 4th string point guard?

I didnโ€™t expect Tipler but he would have been a better option at guard next year than Trent Brown or Miller who are the likely starting options right now. ย SIU still desperately needs a scorer and Iโ€™m not sure theyโ€™re recruiting anyone that can do that better than Tipler. ย 

That being said, seems like teams backed out on him. ย UTRGV is a really shocking destination for a graduate senior.

ย 

To each their own, I'd rather have Miller.ย  Tipler is closer to 5'8 than 5'10 and is a senior.ย  We got the better long term guy for sure and quite possibly the better short term as well.ย  ย Yes, I'm all too aware, and concerned, with the potential scoring concerns but they'll work themselves out once the roster is fully vetted.ย ย

Even with Hensley and Miller coming in and included in this, SIU projects as a 10th place team in the Valley and a bottom 50 or so offensive team in the country on BartTovik.ย ย 

Obvious caveat that projections don't mean everything and they can be wrong.ย ย

Leonard should fire up the rainy day list of possible coaching candidates.ย

I sort of thought he had moved on. I still follow him and he keeps on visiting places.ย 

He seems to have more personality than a lot of the players Mullins usually gets.ย

Theyโ€™re the ones that can get us where we havenโ€™t been in 15 years.

Surely that ship has sailed on SIU's end. How many big men do we need at this point?

Wilson seems like a flake and we already have several more talented big men on the roster. ย I hope weโ€™ve moved on. ย We need to be concentrating on a scoring 2G right now.

Thatโ€™s the reason I am interested in him. ย 

Having a 6-9 kid play the 3 is the type of creativity I would have liked to have seen from this staff in the previous four years. ย
