Good list

Gardiner is obviously the prime target still out there.

I'm still holding out some hope for Karlen and King. No news might be good news here. I imagine ND admissions may take a bit longer than others, so as long as those two aren't linked to other schools we may still have a shot.

Hansford is interesting. I wouldn't have expected us to be interested either, but the visit from Aaliyah Nye may indicate otherwise. No reason to think playing time would be a deterrent here, so seems plausible.

As for the post, I think we're likely onto plan C. That likely means someone that will be Koval's backup. I do think Niele likely prefers someone with one year here, since Kylee Watson will likely be back the following season.
