Weren't even projected in the top 6, but we won the regular season outright. Imagine if baseball was followed the same way as basketball. Would be a whole lotta people on this board looking dumb right now.

I tend to think our insiders' overconfidence going into this off-season is a pretty solid representation of the info they were being provided, which means the staff, too, was overconfident. That's fascinating. That's, frankly, the good stuff I come to this site for in the off-season because...

I find it so weird that people get upset about insiders giving us info. If you're checking the recruiting thread in May, you're here specifically for those insiders. Don't fool yourself. Nothing else any of us has to say really matters that much. And every single one of us has the choice to do...

Not gonna stress about bracketology in May, man. We know we have a hole. We know we are working to fill it. We know we have a coach that can solve problems. We know we just added one of the best assistants in the game. We'll see where we land once the roster is complete. Right now, though...

He wants to stay in the draft. As he's said in interviews, he's outgrown college. He just needs a team to use an early second on him. He just helped his cause and ours. We'll see.

Watching Hawk's highlights from yesterday on the front page, they keep emphasizing his time at Illinois under Brad. If he comes back, having commentators attaching another program's name to him is going to feel horribly gross. I want what's best for him, he'll always be ours, and I will cheer...

Now this is the freaking news I want to hear. Some team needs to take a chance on him. He has the skillset and intelligence if he can just get the right opportunity.

Really glad he graduated. I've made peace with this. Hawk will go down as one of my favorite players ever. I absolutely can't wait to see what he does next. I hope it's in the league, but even if it's at another school, I'm gonna cheer like heck for him. Unless he plays us.

Biggest commit in a long time deserves the big gif...

If you want to criticize the roster construction on May 11th, be my guest. Personally, I think it's kind of foolish. Yes, we currently have a hole that we are all very aware of, but Brad's shown he's a heck of a problem solver. There's still time and options for him to solve this problem. And I...

We reached the pinnacle of the sport only to slide into irrelevance. Staying on top is hard. We've seen how easily it can all go away. Thankfully, now the administration and coaching staff have their eyes on the prize in every single facet. We have the best assistant coaches money can buy. We...

Really appreciate the staff finding ways to play in MSG year in and year out. Those games get a lot of eyes and it helps show we are a national brand. Not to mention, it probably helps OA recruit the NYC kids when he can point to us consistently playing there.

I like Dain and Amani a lot. I think both are going to have really solid seasons. Now that we know our front court, though, it's pretty obvious why we were fine with them walking. We got significantly longer, better shooting, more versatile, and just plain better fits for what we want to do...

When Brad was spotted in Europe, you just knew this was his mindset... Now can he pull the double?

So we went from the players not being able to get a single cent over the table to full-on world soccer, uncapped teams paying transfer fees to pro clubs, huh. Wild. I can't wait to see if this works and am fascinated to see how it possibly blows up in our faces. The off-season is never dull.
