I'll take the over
I have to believe he wouldn't go somewhere unless he was promised to be a starter, and if you start Dain you kind of have to build everything else around him. He could have averaged 15 and 8 here, if he was featured. There will be a handful of matchups in that league where he will struggle, but most nights the big man will eat.
Also, Memphis is on TV pretty regularly, so I'm excited we still get to see him.
I feel like this was a mutual break up, as much as that is possible. Glad he landed on a team that typically has a chance to dance.

A buddy of mine served me some Whistle Pig on the rocks during the 30-0 run. I didn’t say anything, and of course I drank it… but I went ahead and poured my second glass myself.

Wait is this serious, did I miss the insiders chatter? Seems kind of shocking to take a red shirt and then transfer.
You find it shocking that a kid that was so buried on the depth chart he decided to sit out the season, might look to go somewhere he isn't buried on the depth chart? I'd be more shocked if he stays. The kid is definitely a competitor. He seems like the kind of kid who has a need to be on the court a lot. I'm not convinced we can give him that.

I like DD, but Memphis is a train wreck where 1st round pick big men the last decade haven't put up 15 & 8.

I hope he does, but the under is the play.
Their recent 1st round big men have been true freshmen. Drafted for upside, not necessarily for what they did at Memphis.

Dain is a full-grown man with a big booty and a big bag of tricks.
