I hope you're right but they had similar 2023-2024's statistically with Payne playing against Big 10 schools and Mitchell playing at Canisus. Generally, I agree with your take though. I think we have a chance for our roster to be better than last year's roster. I am a little concerned that the...

But those weakling wednesday teams got gutted by the portal, I know Rock would never take credit for beating a team that got gutted by the portal because it's just not fair.

I'm sure JOJ wasn't happy with his role but that kind of tells you a lot about why he wasn't playing. His path to PT was to be a hyper active player who brought energy (JYD). He didn't do that and then he was competing with Parker Fox for backup minutes. Parker was way better. If he can't...

He'll fit really nice next to Garcia. He is sort of like Payne in that he is a pretty active guy for his size.

The truth is that the new system will hurt college basketball but those college basketball fans will likely not transfer over to the G-League at a large rate.

Easy - Payne is a way better basketball player and Carrington pulled BS during the season. It really comes down to Payne being a much better player and in the new era of college basketball being professional-light, that's all that matters.

Yeah, but you're always wrong.

You did not graduate from the U of MN.

I know, we can't be expected to compete with NIL juggernauts like Iowa State and Northwestern.

I believe this is where they have to go if they have any prayer of building some sort of real system. RIght now, we are just pretending that the schools don't pay the players through shell entities we call NIL collectives and it's chaos because neither side can really enforce whatever deal they...

I kind of liked the 2023 offseason better when the apology mantra was that Ben was building it the right way, we had to be patient, and WINGSPAN. The apology mantra of 2024 is just too nihilistic - we get it, the U cannot be expected to ever produce anything because of NIL that impacts us...

Is there a less accomplished coach in all of major college basketball?

You're talking to us like we didn't live through the OJ Simpson trial. Did something happen with a Bronco too? Do you really need the list of evidence against OJ that would be impossible to plant? I also don't think bigotry and racism is "reasonable". I just think it has absolutely nothing to...

Of course, it was the only prayer they had to pour gasoline on the race card and hope the jury was full of idiots. It worked. That doesn't make the jury any less stupid. We all know the entire story about OJ Simpson. All of us that laugh at the idea that it could possibly be someone else...

That could only sowed doubt to the 12 dumbest people on the planet.
