Well I think it holds true that Jereme was more of a frog than a prince.

Been hearing this a while, but I have no knowledge, just some 3rd or 4th hand. Could be why we are still very active
If I had my choice of the two I would take Jack, but I'm not a great judge of talent.
You mean the devils lettuce vs. the booger sugar?
Who publicly have we been linked to? I don’t feel like we’ve been linked to too many players. Heck the main guy (Reeves) isn’t even in the portal (yet).
I think it’s more likely someone like Harmon or Quincy leaves because of pt concerns, rather than grade issues. Feels weird we’d risk taking a player of harmons ability if there was serious risk of him not making grades.

I hear his explosiveness rating is off the charts
Is the team better with Reeves and Johnson or Harmon and Moretti? That’s an easy one

I not suggesting a player would jump from team to team in the pros whenever they wish, I understand how the NBA works, I mean the attitude and/or mentality of the player who feels the need to jump to multiple schools, or is compelled to by wearing out their welcome. In this portal era, it may come back to bite some of the players who are continually chasing what they feel is a more desired landing spot, or finding themselves out of favor at more than one place. It may signal a that they could be a problem.

I'm only assuming that your teacher also added the "shave his b***s with a rusty razor verse"? It was Junior High after all.
He comes off as one of those guys everyone hates (myself included) unless he plays for your team.
Just as long as he moooves.

You said guards in your original post. Not point guards. So there.
I don't think I'll ever be able to forget Bruce yelling, 'DEMETRI!!! MOTION!!!

Strangely, I can't recall. She was gifted in dealing with young adolescents but I'm guessing even she didn't take it that far.
Might want to be careful to avoid defamation or libel per se
Is the team better with Skyy and ZZ Clark or Jeremy and Jeremiah Fears.. Orr or is the team better with RayJ Dennis or Jeremiah Williams.. so how’d we miss this bad.. Brad wants top 10 coaching money then I expect a top 10 program.
we made a lot of jokes over the last summer of Underwood's obsession with wings. Is the staff not concerned, especially after last year, that subpar PG could hurt the team? If this change occurs our roster would be
Bigs: Dainja
Big wings: Hawkins, Hansberry, Guerrier
Wings: Shannon, Reeves, Goode, Domask, Rodgers, Johnson, DGL, Sencire
PG: Williams
You could maybe put Hansberry in as a big instead of a big wing, but I don't expect him to be on the block with his back to the basket a ton. You could maybe put Johnson as a PG/wing, he'd have to be, especially with the question marks with Williams.
The big men in the Big Ten will not be as good as they've been in past years, but if anything happens to Dainja or Williams in this scenario, we are just a team of wings and a Fr trying to learn PG. I also think Johnson is less likely than Reeves to boot, but maybe we're taking all that money set aside for Dennis and throwing it at him.
If this is our lineup, we will scuffle mightily against any team that presses us. Even without a press the number of turnovers we're going to cough up would be ridiculous.
Just next year tho because one and done (if not one-half and done)
