Next year is make or break … When you’ve got guys like Sean Miller, Eric Musselman and others that would be interested … Boosters willing to support a move if it’s necessary …

It makes making a move a little easier …

If those guys are actually interested then we should’ve already moved on from Brad but if these are just potential candidates for us to strike out on and end up having to sign some coach trying to jump to power five then it’s a bad move.

As much as I hate to say it…that sounds like a reasonable/fair assessment.

The second bolded part just sounds like lazy journalism. Yes it’s all speculation…Yes, there are SOME returning players…but the season in question and the previous season are different animals.

(HOPEFULLY 🙏 that proves to
be the case.)

From an outsider they see a lot of the same, lot of talent and unproven at pg. But we are much older and experienced this year. I thought it was a fair assessment of the team overall and they backed up most of their takes

🤷‍♂️Just thought I would share that. He has looked really impressive from once I heard and dunked on our best player

I respect you Lville, but this seems a little like Skyy posting his practice highlights on twitter during his “leave of absence”.

If he’s dunking on Edey during a big time conference matchup, I’ll pay attention. But until then let’s leave the practice dunks in the ubben gym shall we?

I agree. It WAS fair and reasonable. And they did back up MOST of it.

I'm a fan...he has high level explosion, leaping ability and one of the highest ceilings on the team.

I think its understood they are going to try to avoid playing a Freshman at PG. But I hope he puts some pressure on them.

I think we’re all gonna grow to love DGL. He seems to have a little of that dawg mentality in him. Unlike some other guards that were on the roster last season.

I will admit that as someone who still appreciates Bruce for what he accomplished for us when he was here despite how his tenure ended, that it does give me a little smirk of satisfaction when I hear people basically begging to can Underwood so we can hire a great x's and o's floor coach who has experience taking talented players on a long tourney run. It's like we're coming full circle.
