All this over the top excitement over these nice transfer-in possibilities makes me think it might be time to put the Loyalty cup on. I've already been wearing mine to handle the transfer out rumors.

Good call. We've talked ideal or acceptable scenarios but not nightmare scenarios. Losing kofi, Belo chawk. Striking out on the Shannon Clark etc.

I'm accepting that Belo might be gone (it still hurts), but there has to be a way to have two stellar PGs on a single roster.

If you want to play fast, you need to rest guys. You need someone to lead the second unit to avoid going silent the way we did at times this season. It'll never be 50/50, but there has to be a way to manage it.

I agree with this but I don't think Belo would buy it. Weve seen nothing to suggest a faster play style and this was coming into a season where we thought it was gonna be Belo's team . It would be one of the greatest sell jobs ever if they could do it but I just think Belo ends up at a school that already plays that style and hes not gonna wanna waste his jr year finding out . There are just too many successful transfer stories nd it will be year 3 and there still isn't any certainty on whether the ball would be in his hands . That just screams transfer to me .

I'm more worried about whatever happened in the locker room at half time last Sunday than playing time. (Insiders mentioned it was the reason he sat the second half.) Belo's already proven he's a team player with playing time. I think a spat with coaches is more likely to send him on his way. That bums me out more than anything.

Yeah, and I wonder if Belo hadn’t sat the entire second half if we’d be having all this discussion (?). Sure wish I knew what happened in that locker room.
