I think prior to whiffing this past offseason, Hubert has done a pretty good job using the portal to add guys that fill in the gaps of rosters that already have a strong nucleus in place prior.
Manek in ‘21-22, Ryan and Ingram in ‘23-24, even Nance in ‘22-23 was the right idea (I thought he was solid enough in his specific role and was down the list of the problems with that team).
What’s concerning is that we’ll likely have to replace a lot more production through the transfer portal than in previous seasons. It’s difficult to build a good team that way even for some of the best coaches in the sport.
