  1. I believe them leaving has quite a bit to do with the school itself. I'm glad they don't leave. Conference realignment has done nothing but hurt college basketball.
  2. Lol. I don't even think it was that. The atmosphere of that game was just so boring. Normally you get a feeling off the TV. But nothing. Just seemed like a game in November.
  3. I haven't been super interested the last few years anyways. Definitely cared more before my 20s. Though I think a Gonzaga vs Baylor game would be awesome. The least interested I've ever been though was the Virginia vs Texas Tech title game.. didn't even seem like a title game and fans were even there.
  4. Well sure. But even in a normal year.. only Kispert and Cook are Seniors.
  5. This entire Gonzaga team can return next year...
  6. UCLA slowing it way down. Suggs can change direction quicker than anyone in the nation though... Kid is good.
  7. And all of these kids have that option... But why don't they? Because none of those options give the amount of FREE marketing and branding that college basketball gives.
  8. I'm 27. I'm just smart enough to understand that kids are getting a few hundred thousand dollars worth of goods for themselves and their atheltic peers in other sports. And that's only really a thing for very few atheltes at very few schools. Kids at Texas Southern aren't making Texas Southern millions and millions of dollars. But a guy like Zion was building his brand beforehand, and then it exploded even more in college by having the word "Duke" across his chest. The problem that everyone of these kids has, is entitlement. They believe they are university and who makes the university popular. WRONG. Zion left and guess what? Duke survived and fans kept watching. Big time atheltes leave colleges and everyone keeps watching college without them there. Not a single athelte is ever bigger than the university and when these kids realize the insanely rare opportunity they are receiving, they'll be better for it. They want to get paid by the school? Then forfeit your scholarship and allow for it to go elsewhere.
  9. That's part of the gig. It's like being in the greatest unpaid internship on the planet. Because you still have everything paid for and the ability to make a lot of money when you're done.
  10. Really? So when a kid commits to UNC... It doesn't get blasted through by UNC? ESPN? Fox Sports? Throughout the season as they constantly show and bring up a kid?
  11. Does a great player not make money off the free marketing and branding they received from playing for a North Carolina?
  12. Leaving a scholarship is like leaving a contract. There are consequences. This is just giving in to a bunch of babies who don't like to do m deal with consequences.
  13. Both lol. Spelled "Xavier" but pronounced X-Zavier
  14. Xavier Johnson and I share the same first name... Depending on how it is pronounced.
  15. I think we get better with Durham gone. That's 32 1/2 minutes going to players with way more potential to better.
  16. The thing is that Race could easily become a 30+% 30pt shooter.
  17. So anyone we going after? Figured we would be going after at least 1 wing.
  18. He never changed. We were supposed to have some "new and improved" offense this past season.. we still sucked and it never changed.
  19. IPFW and Indiana State were bad teams. Even relative to their own conferences. And they absolutely destroyed us and showed us a massive red flag for Archie. Everyone gets to shoot open 3s.
  20. Yes. Without a doubt. But it also depends on who they go after. And it'll probably a UNC guy.
  21. This will be an interesting search. They can honestly get just about anyone they want. They have much more pull than the Indiana job.
  22. I'm pretty sure dunking in warm ups wasnt allowed until recently. Even in college. At least when the refs were on the court.
  23. And theyll probably raise their tuition and just pocket it.
  24. Correct. Because our team absolutely sucks at shooting... Seems to be a recurring them... If they are lifting during the season... Quit doing it. No reason at any level.
