SF Alonzo Gaffney (transfer to NW Florida, transfer to Arizona St.)

He is going to be really, really fun to watch in Columbus. After watching his game, makes me want Liddell even more...combining the skill sets of Gaffney, Liddell and Carton under CH would be lethal.

I wonder how much we'd even see them on the court together, though. Without transfers we'd have a lot of experienced forwards that Zo and EJ would have to beat out for minutes and who knows how long Carton (or Zo) will be in college. But EJ and Zo do represent talent upgrades over our current forwards, I just think there are some not necessarily positive things that would probably have to happen for them to waltz in and get big minutes off the bat (like a couple guys transferring or several guys not developing much at all). Things open up a tad in 2020-2021 with Andre and Potter graduated. And I pretty much have to think that someone will have transferred out of the program by that point.

I am more hoping we get EJ so that we even have a member of the 2019 class around to be an upperclassman, heh.

the thing about Liddel is that, though he will be a 4/small ball 5 in college, he has the talent to expand his game to a 3/4 for the nba, if he gets a grasp on his handles I think he could easily transition to an nba SF... and he is currently ranked the lowest of the bunch but I could easily see him rise for nba rankings depending on the type of skill he displays...but as it stands he would be the one most likely to stay on campus for a while.
