I don’t know why we would give a flying F what Reddit thinks…..

How is Petrovic feeling? I understand Brad and having to keep Boswell and Wagler in the back court, making it difficult to give Petrovic minutes. But with both of them most likely gone next year, I’d rather have Petrovic run the 1 spot than a transfer guard and have to do the whole “build team chemistry” phase in the first couple months of the season.

I mean, last year’s team ended at 17 in KenPom. This one is currently at 13. So it seems to be working fairly well? Will have to see how the season plays out, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see this type of team (one that’s had just a handful of practices together) improve as the season goes on.
Isn't eligibility a thing? It takes us months to get a guy like Tomi cleared, but this cat can come in, throw on a uniform and we can just roll the ball out?
This seems odd.

It's solid. We have very good coaches and great leadership, but we're looking to contend for national championships, right?
I imagine he will get more time as his defense improves.
I think we would find out the toughest one of them is Petro if he ever gets any extended time.
Someone correct me if I am wrong: We currently have one spot open and 3 players graduating. If no one leaves for the draft we have 4 openings ( 3 Frosh and the new euro kid) So yes we are good on roster spots. I would assume if we loose a couple to the draft we go portal. And will Davis stay or transfer! He could play a lot of minutes if he went somewhere like CS (Booth did).
Do we get one more year with Ty!
Anyway…. I dont see this move jamming up our roster!
Rocket surgery?
I think you're either going for "rocket science" or "brain surgery".
Either one works.
Rocket surgery.....meh.

If national championship is your annual expectation, you’ll likely be disappointed annually.
I’m not the expectations guy. I’m the “I enjoy watching my team play each week, especially when we’re nationally relevant, have a few NBA guys, and a chance at a run in March” guy.
Yep…. Natty champ = one team. Even the best team in the country often times falls short!
Best hope is a nice season and a chance to make a run.

What is the risk exactly? Are we in grave danger?
Grave grave danger. Might never win a game again.
"Grave danger?" "Is there any other kind?"
He's been here three months and already has a girl friend? How much is his NIL?
Based on the grid, there's no more room for new additions unless someone leaves. All spots next year are currently occupied, which is what you said. My concern is we're still recruiting for next year (or so I thought) and it's harder to sell a player on a roster spot that doesn't currently exist.
