OT: Mac McClung in transfer portal

Submitted by Jaqen H'ghar on April 12th, 2021 at 1:11 PM

Portal is starting to get real crazy, and perhaps the best player in the portal this year has just entered. Odds on favorite is Texas to follow his coach but given the loss of Chaundee and lack of guard experience (which we've seen, leads to deep tourney runs), any chance that we might make a push?

I've never been a huge McClung fan. He's high volume, low efficiency. Honestly there aren't many players left in the portal that I'm really high on and think would fit in well with the current roster construction and the program culture. I was high on Jabri Abdur Rahim but he just committed to UGA

not threadworthy, but Liam Robbins, the 7' from Minnesota, is transferring to Vandy, who also just received commitments from two high 4* last week but lost Scottie Pippen, Jr. to the draft.

Reading through this thread, I am obviously in the minority.

I would take Mac in a heartbeat. Juwan knows what it takes to succeed in the NBA, and I have the utmost of confidence he could make him into a more efficient player.

He has shown the ability to put up boat loads of points. 

Yeah, I would take Marcus Carr over him obviously, but I think Mac could work here.
