3-4 guys a year is normal - but this will almost be a complete roster re-construction 2 years in a row. That has to get old sooner rather than later.

Agree I'm feeling pretty good about next year. Seems we should have a team very capable of making the tournament, which is honestly all I care about. We should be getting there 8-9 times over a...

Anyone with eyes could see the potential in KyKy. He was the microwave off of the bench, he just needed to understand decision making a bit better. But he was one of the most athletic players on the...

For these guys that have roles on teams and already play valuable minutes, especially upperclassmen, it's 100% about the money.

Also seems like his 10th year of eligibility.

With the money being thrown around, how can anyone not be tempted?

For sure - could be a huge asset off the bench if he can get open looks.

Unfortunately for young and unproven college athletes, this is their new reality. It's going to be even more important than ever to ensure your college choice is the right level/skill fit for you. If...

We definitely need 1 more big. Hope we can land one, and hoping the team gets much more balanced and doesn't have to rely on the guards so much.

I bet he's pretty satisfied.

I'm not not calm.

But it's an arms race for quality big guys. We're in for a battle for anyone of these guys that have high level interest from power conference schools. None of this is...

Biggest question mark is still multiple Big East bigs. We whiffed on bigs in the portal (mostly a victim of circumstance, but still a true statement) - we need a Tyrique type of guy in the paint....

This is starting feel like last year. We don't seem to be getting our main targets.

Having watched him many times (HS and College), I just don't think he's good enough as a Big East (or Big Ten) big. I think he's landed at the level that fits him the best. I think he will do well at...

Seton Hall and Indiana States omissions weren't their bubbles bursting, they were mistakes. Both should have 100% been in the field.

There's decisions between bubble teams that can go either way,...

You all realize he has a staff that does the lionshare of the recruiting right?

Not sure people understand how much his staff actually takes care of. He's a CEO, not a worker bee.

He's not...

Same as the "you can't smile during a loss" guy.

So add a rim protector. It would be great to have a guy come off the bench that does nothing but alter shots. It's exactly what Clingan was last year.

Not every big guy has to average 16 and 10....

Is there an estimate on at what point level you will likely have to change seats (if you wanted to keep them)? Not sure you can back into it, but perhaps someone smarter than me knows.

Assuming the other team has a capable scoring 5. Most don't.

Kalkbrenner and Clingan are unicorns in the college game.

And like I said, who on the current roster can guard the 5 anyway?

There are zero people this past year and zero people on the current roster than can guard the 5.

As long as Free outscores the guy he's guarding, it's a win. College hoops has really moved to...

I'm surprised the NIT hasn't folded yet. The ratings have to be abysmal, especially with the current star power in the women's game.

Why is it now taboo to play two post guys at the same time? Oakland used Townsend and Conway together. I think Free and Townsend would be real tough to guard, and they could play off of each other....

Surprised no one has responded to this. This would be awesome and exactly what we need.

The only fear is that he's kind of a Freemantle clone, and probably a bit better on the offensive end. But...

I took it as an April Fool's joke as I saw it yesterday as well. There have been no other reports of him being in the portal, and it would be all over the news if true.

Give me Vlad Goldin however.

I just find it hard to believe they'll be able to sustain $2-4M per year in NIL. Maybe I'm wrong - but it seems unlikely.

It's year one, and it seems it's already tough.
