wow! good find

[steve]

Oh whoops, looks like he spent a few seasons at Cal Baptist. But still, five schools in seven years!

[kturnup]

I already made a Michael Henn post. It was a whole thing!

@kturnup

Looking into PSU a bit while listening to The Moving Screen. They have a transfer from Denver named Michael Henn. He’s a stretch 4, solid shooter, decently efficient in the arc. Doesn’t get fouled. Probably a sieve on D, his team was 322nd in the country in AdjD. He is one of only 2 players above 6’6 though so he might even play Center! Probably will be bad at best, most likely horrific.

But that’s not what caught my eye. What caught my eye is he’s playing for his 5th school in his 7th year! All on the West Coast, all in different conferences. He graduated HS the same year as Xavier Simpson. I do not know how he made his way to PSU but I’m sure it will be a fun year for him

16-17 - UC Davis
17-18 - Sit out transfer at Cal Baptist
18-19 - Played at Cal Baptist
19-20 - Injured - medical RS at Cal Baptist
20-21 - Transfers to Portland as grad transfer but a Jr eligibility wise, COVID so doesn’t lose a year and acts as 3rd RS year
21-22 - Transfers to Denver with free transfer
22-23 - Transfers to PSU with second(?) free transfer

Nebraska up @ St Johns fighting Curbelo’s at halftime. This would just be embarrassing for the big east

[bluejayway]

I thought I understood ugly basketball with Georgetown v. Northwestern. I’m watching St. John’s versus Nebraska. I understood nothing.

[kturnup]

Well st Johns is now winning

[BigBoutros]

man St. John’s simply demolished them in the 2H wow

[BigBoutros]

second half was 50-23

[steve]

Is there any reason to believe that Hoiberg isn’t getting poop-canned at the end of the season?

[IanLemersal]

Are Whitmore and Moore both gonna be out again tonight for Nova?

[umhoops]

Moore has an Achilles’ injury. If he’s back it’ll be in like February.

Whitmore I believe is out but not sure.

[IanLemersal]

Forgot about the Achilles for Moore. Thanks!

[umhoops]

Terrific first half from TJD at Xavier.

[kturnup]

Rutgers going to lose to temple

[umhoops]

Tough to be too down on Rutgers though without McConnell and Mulcahy.

[kturnup]

Oh wow didn’t even notice that. Yeah that’s tough

[kturnup]

It’s all TJD and Xavier Johnson for IU tonight

[umhoops]

TJD is just destroying Xavier. Monster performance.

I don’t understand why Miller Kopp plays this many minutes though.
