It’ll be like this every year.

Ugh. I know you're right, but where is the dislike button for this reality?

 

[NashvILLe05]

I am sorry I really liked Tomi last year and Z has been a blast to watch this season but neither of them will, ever play in the NBA but both will be able to play in Europe at some level

You’re probably right. It just has Kofi bad financial decision vibes and is surprising to hear that’s even a possibility.

It’ll be like this every year.

Will it? Programs are losing money. KU is losing money. Granted for multiple reasons but they aren’t the only ones. Is this sustainable? It has been my question for a few years now. There is an initial novelty in being able to pay cash to make your Alma Mater great but when do donors say enough?

Keep an eye on Coleman.

Agree on this … Have continued to hear more and more about this being a real possibility throughout the day …

 

[EmeraldCityIllini]

I have a firm rule - if you're a guard or wing and Texas Tech wants you. I want you.

I think with the twins you can get a donor who really just likes the twins and have them pony up a little bit for them. But they also just might say I’m done with CBB as well.

I am really late to the party. Apologies. Which Coleman?

Are you serious? That's a legit possibility?

 

[BillyBob1]

I saw he had another triple double!

 

[ILLfated]

Do we know for sure that Keaton is leaving the University to go pro?

In today's world? Probably.

But not whose being alluded to

Pretty high bar …

But the kid can flat out hoop … I thought we’d push a little harder than we did the first go around …

And after some film review tonight and talking to sources … He’s gotten better since the summer when I saw him … A lot better …

Have had quite a few questions about Zhang …

I don’t think we’re in hot pursuit there … Sounds like he wants some guaranteed PT … We aren’t going to offer that …

Probably will wind up being Cal or Oregon …

Any guesses on what the pivot would be if the twins leave?

I noticed marvin1991 liked your post! When marvin chimes in, it's "gold, Jerry, gold!"

 

[CleverHandle1]

LOL!

Based on a post earlier, the thought is that we'll only have Jake, Mirk and Ty coming back. I'd say guaranteed playing time is a pretty good bet if only those three return. Heck, Ty wouldn't have played a game in 2 years.
