Hopefully he can plug a hole in our lineup and be a stopper on the inside.

agree with moose, hopefully he can help fill the hole at the four position that has been an issue for a couple of seasons
cork and frank show they can handle the four would allow the frogs to slide o'bannon back to his more natural position giving them some depth and size on the perimeter

Rumors are Frank is headed into the portal too, FYI.
Credit where credit is due, so far coach appears to be replacing his transfers with better players. Let’s keep that up.

would be disappointed if frank is leaving as once again a player who flashes a bit of potential leaves before they really get a chance to grow in the program
we also need to be careful when we start projecting players performance at other schools and how they will fit in with the frogs.
will tcu continue to play at the slower pace or will they play at the faster pace that uta played at last year.
the transfer from vandy is viewed by many as the replacement for rj but he was the fourth leading scorer for a bad vandy team. does that mean he isn't a good player? no, but when someone uses some efficiency number for him is that an accurate reflection of how he will perform if he is asked to know be a lead in the frogs offense instead of the 3rd of 4th option for vandy?

Frank may have played more if he had been in better shape.

Why was he not in shape?

He was overweight, not tone at all.

So almost none of the players that the coaches have brought in the last 3 years are very good but we're supposed to have confidence that the new guys they bring in this season will all be upgrades?
I love being optimistic and I typically get super annoyed with the overwhelming pessimism that most people on here have but as it pertains to the basketball program (and specifically the constant roster changes) there just aren't many tangible things I can hold onto as reasons for optimism other than blindly hoping for the best.

Really soft attitude, not the most open to coaching.

So you’re basing this off how you think he looks, or you were told by someone in the program that the kid didn’t work hard enough? Just curious.

Interesting. Kid seemed to have some talent. Was looking forward to him coming back.

I thought he looked too heavy. He did display an ability to rebound and shoot from behind the arc.
He needs to workout, lose weight and get more lean.
If he is willing to come off the bench, and continue making some long range shots and fight for rebounds and be a role player, he should be okay.

Miles knows he has realistically one year left...whats the point? He's the unquestioned leader of this team who will play a guaranteed 35 mins and develop accordingly.
If he transfers that will be 4 teams in 4 years when he hits the League in 2022. That ain't fun...

Four teams?
Are you counting Lancaster high school as one of those four teams?
He's only been at TCU for a year. And even if he transfers that will be two college teams in two years if he declares for the draft at the end of the 2021-22 season.
