So far. Wade said something about wanting to go hard internationally, but he’s so late that it’s gonna be tough this year.

My heart is bleeding for him.

He shouldn't have left NC State.  He had like 2 other schools he had worry about in the ACC, but in the SEC, he has about 8 to 10.

I get the move because LSU has the combination of ridiculous resources, membership in a top 2 conference and  no moral or ethical hesitancy of any kind that’s right up Wade’s alley. Dude couldn’t say no. But this year’s gonna be a little rough.

In recent years, I've been in "John, I want a divorce" mode with IU basketball. If Wade uses one of his nine lives and somehow has a better team than us, I think I'll finally pull the trigger.

Not the “John Deere” letter! Lol

Interesting little composite. Still can’t get over what happened to Harris-Smith. Liked that kid a lot in HS and then he got to college and lost all confidence in his shot almost immediately and now he’s to the point that he straight turns down open looks.

Washington center Franck Kepnang will enter the TransferPortal, per his representation GVO Sports. The 6-11 grad student started 25 games last season. Finished 2nd in Big Ten in blocks (2.1).

to pUKe.  Per Joe Tipton:  Kepnang will still officially need a waiver for a seventh year of eligibility. His career has unfortunately been riddled with injuries.

He has five years in which he played at least ten games.

I cannot imagine any way he gets a waiver…. amirite?

Depends on which court the lawsuit is eventually filed.  :-)

Decent read. Pretty sure the mid-major kid it references is Leroy Blyden at Toledo. Read somewhere that Kowalczyk talked about putting together the biggest offer he could for the kid and Kansas completely blew it away.

Baylor’s Yessoufou likely portaling.  He’ll garner significant money somewhere. LSU and UK the big spenders left?  UNC?  Someone will pay him well.

I suppose UCLA is likely out of the question?

I have No idea at all. Just seems like LSU and UK will throw major offers to him.

They both look to be desperate.

Jakai Newton ends up at Georgia State. Good luck to him, I hope he comes back from all the injuries. 

 

And from GA State, he's on the move to UMass Lowell.

This is hideous. I remember this guy’s name as a pretty highly regarded NBA sleeper-type prospect in maybe ‘21 or ‘22.

It’s gross, but it’s more and more what winning basketball is gonna look like in the states.
