I get that he was a top 100 recruit in 2016, but I want a grad transfer that can help next year, not one we have to wait on. Our 2019 class should be pretty great so I'd rather hold the scholarship for one of them anyways.

I like that and it's a great point. Baskeball players with high hoops IQ see things before they happen. Watch the flow.

Trendon Watford is going to play with Georgia Stars this summer. Kira is playing with Georgia Stars as well.

I'm watching this Loyola game and I'm not sure my heart could handle it if Bama was playing.

Michigan is going to the national championship with their toughest game being 6th seeded Houston. That shows how much of a crap shoot the tournament can be.

Villanova is gonna win it all. We got matched up with the toughest team in the tourney and we just ran out of gas in the second half.

Yup, Wright has built his program the perfect way. Not too many one and dones, and plenty of players that stay at least three years.

Bball is very similar to soccer. What Johann Cruyff says about soccer applies to ball as well.

___________________________________________________
"Key is mediocre, but to those of you wanting him gone, who would you have playing the four over him? If we continue switching everything on defense, Reese and Galin are liabilities on the perimeter. Not that Key is very good at that either, but he's better than those two. Reese and Galin were embarrassingly bad defensive rebounders last season as well.

I'd much rather keep Key than have Riley. If both leave, and we find a good replacement that's fine, but I think that's unlikely"
____________________________________________________


Reese and Galin were freshmen. Give them time. Key was injured and started to occasionally assert himself is the final few games. Only flashes though. Riley is actually a decent rebounder. He just has slow feet.

Azubuike is too slow to defend the arc when healthy. Only a few weeks post mcl sprain, he has no shot

Some of us knew that. Instead we had a pocket of fans getting mad we lost badly to the best team in the country.

If you look back our first half against Villanova is the best any team has looked against them all tournament.

We had the misfortune of being drawn against them so early. If not for that we probably go on a little run.

Crazy to think that loyola and Michigan had games decided at the last second against Houston, UT, and Miami. Just shows how close things can be

This team is unreal...they played one of their worst games of the whole year against TexasTech and still won by 12.


Maybe the most dominate Tourney run ever...won every game so far by double digits and possibly 3 by 20+ points.
