I hear JBJ doesn't plan on coming back. Unfortunate if true, but we move forward.

So now how long do we have to wait to hear if they are coming back. Heck I guess maybe my 9 year old should declare without an agent. He could get some good feedback.

May 24th is the last day to withdraw.

Recker is there anything that you like? You crap on kids getting feedback and you crap on IU players. I guess I'm just wondering why you continue to subject yourself to things you clearly hate.

I still think OG is the only one gone

4 guys declaring from an 18-16 team just tells you how bad the coaching/season was

Probably. Or how delusional the players were. I think it makes sense to test the process but the mock drafts are a pretty accurate portrayal of where you stand as a player. It's not too difficult to figure it out.

Even if all four do not return we will be fine, we have Coach Archie Miller at the helm, better days lie ahead, it is well with my soul.

I will miss OG. Let TB RoJo and JBJ test the waters and learn what they need to work on and then come back to BTown and wear out the practice facility. That is a place hard work can lead to big jumps in player development. So glad we have Cook!

I suppose, if nothing else, it is a good way for them to get free advice from professionals.

If they come back, they better learn to play some defense. OG gone so just the others. Our guard defense was horrible, and Archie has a blank slate there. Defense takes a lot of heart to play and it will now be a prerequisite on PT.

At what point are players accountable for results? I find it hard to believe the pass they are given. Coaches coach, players execute or they don't and then we blame the coaching staff?

The thing i dont like about it is we could wait six weeks only to have them leave. In the meantime we miss out on spring recruits because we dont know if we have grants or not.

They deserve some blame but they were definitely not put in the best positions to succeed. I want all three to come back to see what they can do under a new coach.

At the point where the coach failed to get the most out of multiple different groups of talented players. That's when. Also, when the coach is paid 3 million a year and the players aren't.

It's incomprehensible to me that anyone has an issue with Johnson checking in for NBA personnel feedback and to go through workouts with other NBA prospects. Potatoes gonna potate..

Declaring for the draft doesn't mean what it used to mean when they don't hire an agent. IMO it would be dumb for them not to declare without an agent if they truly have aspirations of making it to the next level. It allows them to workout with NBA talent and get evaluations from NBA guys to let them know what they need to improve on to make it.

If you were given the opportunity to participate in a work related event that gave you first hand experience on what the job entails and what you need to work on to ensure you can successfully do that job would you do it?

If anything, I think it'll just make someone like ROJO and even JBJ work harder because they are told they aren't good enough yet to be draft highly or draft at all.

I didn't say you bothered me, it's just funny to watch someone who hates everything about our players be so obsessed with them.

 

Plus I can't ignore anyone.
