it honestly makes sense for both sides. Regardless it sucks he’s definitely an everyday guy.

If it happens, unfortunate, but may be for the best on both sides.
They’re worse than KJ. No thanks for me.

This is the hard part of building rosters in this era. You have to focus on a select few guys that you need to invest in, then there are guys who may no longer fit or you can upgrade over, even if they are well liked by the fans.
As long as he doesn't go elsewhere in the B10, especially Michigan or Michigan State.
I don't know about that - they will be good again - but Mara and Yaxel are what made that team special last year - two guys really hard to guard who were execellent defenders. Estrella doesn't put fear in anyone and Bidunga is a better version of Morez, a 6'9" shot blocker rebounder, They will have a really good backcourt with Cadeau, McKenney, McCoy and Juke Harris in that scenario, but that's a lot of guards who want the ball.
I suppose it may not be fair to draw such a sweeping conclusion based on just a few data points, but if I were a European player he’d be among the very last coaches I’d go play for.
Maybe in his mind, he really doesn't see him getting much playing time? Maybe it'd be a reality knowing BU and staff are reaching for the stars.
If true, too bad. I really think he can contribute especially on the defensive side, offensive rebounds and getting put-back baskets.
There's one thing that is 100% sure about Illinois Loyalty in the offseason. It is entertaining as hell.
This old man just sits back and enjoys it no matter what happens.

Ty needs to focus on being healthy and getting back to playing…
Wherever is best for him, great. Honestly, I could see him being a guy who might go to a lower level to prove his health and work his way back in, and maybe we’d see him back here for his senior year

Watch the twitter folks flock to this lol.
JP Estrella is a steep steep steep downgrade from any of Michigan's big 3 bigs from last season. At best, he'll be their 2nd big (and most ideally 3rd IMO). He's a solid contingency guy while we see how things play out with their priority bigs/targets. I expect all 3 current Michigan bigs to go pro. I think all 3 will wind up being Top 20-25 picks.
McKenney is the dude with Michigan that I think takes a enormous Year 2 leap if he returns. Dude is a killer and fully expect him to be in the running for B1G POY if he's back. Credit to him for taking on his freshman role in stride

Any word on Davis?
Yes! Bulls just cut a former first round pick for standing up.and saying im.not endorsing this mindset or product. Now i have no issue with verizon but i think the Mannings, Barkley and others turn down ads too.
He could be top.3 next year n for a lot of the same reasons Noah did. Difference is Yannick Noah is loaded.
Our offense is built around floor spacing. Ty does not fit in that regard and would be a offensive liability
Not shocking if he wants big minutes. Really don’t see the path here. Sucks though after spending so much time here NOT playing

As long as it's out of conference.
I doubt he goes anywhere other than another high major program, but he needs to be in a system where he fits.
He’s from Michigan, and it isn’t hard to imagine him being really good in Tom Izzo’s system in the Draymond/Xavier Tillman, high post roller/facilitator role.
I just threw up in my mouth a bit…
Do we feel a little better about Davis?
I did not want to hear that. What a bummer.
