It really is. I don’t “ignore” posters cuz then I’d miss gems like that one.

I, in contrast, read the fresh entrails of a chicken I've gutted each early morn on my office credenza.
As for Caleb, I see him going to Kansas... Self; Love.

There’s also been some hints as of late that he may be legitimately considering others and it’s not yet a done deal
What if the guy who tweeted named this kid "sources" as loop hole and all he does is ask him. Genius

There's also been hints the apocalypse is near. I would imagine from similar sources

I agree, if TJ comes back, Love will not want a bench role. Even if he does a not come back, I doubt he fits what Brad wants. With a lineup of Hawk/transfer, Rodgers, Domask, Dain and Dennis/transfer where does he fit in? Especially when you bring Goode, Harris, Harman, Hansberry or DGL. I think we will do better In the portal once the dust settles. Let him go to Mizzou or Texas.

He just got here yesterday and already made The Ignore List.
Why would we even want Love? Dude is a bricklayer that just chucks up shots.
Yeah he scores some points but it's incredibly inefficient.
It's been hinted on this board that players "get paid" to take official visits -- in this case, RayJ Dennis. I don't understand how this would be, other than getting SWAG on each trip. Who would be paying Dennis to visit Illinois then Michigan then Baylor then Utah? This seems like a very suspect premise to me, and I'd love some insight from people who actually know how it does or doesn't work.
I could be wrong but I think the topic you are thinking of was Mgbako being paid to NOT visit Louisville
This isn't a new or strange thing. When a school is recruiting a student, particularly for athletics, they will cover the cost of the trip and shower them with attention and gifts during their trip. Any potential student is going to try to take as full advantage of that as possible. As long as the school is willing to cover the visit, why not go out there?
I think Hawkins is content with staying in the draft regardless of what happens here, but he sure as heck isn’t coming back without a PG.
Same might hold true for TSJ, he just hasn’t been as direct.

I was in a meeting once and the company was losing money on certain transactions. My boss said we could make it up in volume. Maybe we should get him and have him shoot more!
Good because he was a bit of a disappointment in Carolina this year. I live in NC and nobody here was crying when he transferred. BTW, it wasn't easy living here in 2005. Insufferable is a word that comes to mind. ILL!
