I'm already looking forward to the Nike Hoops Summit on April 7th lol. Then the Jordan Brand Classic with Sexton and Petty is a week after that on April 14th.

First time I just saw this and hell yes that sounds like Byrne is wanting a new arena.

I want a new arena, but I also don't want something rushed. We need to make sure we get the thing right because there is no going back. I feel like the $50 million or whatever it was we threw at Coleman not that long ago was a rushed decision.

Win next year and make some money and it'll help us get closer to a new arena

Without reading any of the post here, how was Sexton? I've been gone all day studying.


He seemed to be really focused on running the point and setting up his teammates from the beginning. He didn't have a ton of points, but was one of the stars of the game. The East was better than the West when he was on the floor. There was a visible difference when he was on the bench. He was very active on defense. I didn't think he had a great shooting night, but he drew a crowd any time he tried to drive.

All in all, I thought he was clearly one of the top players in the game. That Bamba dude is a stud too. Wish Collin could lure him to Bama.

Sexton's pushing Bamba to visit Alabama. Here's part of an interview from yesterday:

Anywhere you're looking at right now? As a fifth visit? No, not really. I know Mike (Porter) has been talking a little bit about Mizzou and Collin (Sexton)'s been talking about Alabama.

I don't think we have any shot of any getting a Bamba visit, but it did seem like he and Colin got along well on the court

Yeah there's probably not much of a chance, but it's good to see Collin's trying

Good for Nick. Solid program and landing place for him, hope he is able to contribute.

Him and Potts should be a great backcourt in the CUSA. MTSU vs WKU could be a battle next year.

Should be a good fit for him- I know they lost a lot from this past year's team that beat Minnesota in the first round. He SHOULD start and be one of their go to guys.

Well, good luck to him. If his offense is anywhere as stagnant as it was here, Flyer fans will show up with pitch forks and torches.
