Nobody is wringing their hands over Brunk leaving.  They were saying that trying to compare him leaving to trying to bump one of the players currently on the roster off the team for an unnamed, hypothetical person who hypothetically turned down the school once, hypothetically has stats at his current P5 school that are not much better than those we want to replace because "athletic and highly ranked", and maybe some other hypothetical issues.

Most of us are saying you don't boot the guys being discussed here to add someone who has not shown that they are demonstrably better.  That would go for any hypothetical player.

 

 

You missed my main points, it absolutely was hand wringing, and I never once brought up any “hypothetical” replacements. I merely pointed out brunks’ not hypothetical stats, and why no one should care too much he left. I also never stated I believe he was bumped. I believe CMW was straight forward and told him he could stay, but there probably wouldn’t be minutes. 
Hypothetically speaking, you would really take Joey Brunk over a chance at Keion Brooks looking to restore his NBA stature? You can lie and say yes, but no one is going to believe you in that hypothetical.

I thought the discussion of Brunk leaving centered around not being able to attend law-school AND play on the team at IU. Maybe OSU allows players to do both.

Brunk wouldn't even be part of that hypothetical because his scholarship didn't count toward the available scholarships. I think you need to go way back and see where this conversation started.

Another big commitment for Chris Beard and Texas — Vanderbilt forward Dylan Disu is headed to Austin. 6-foot-9 sophomore averaged 15.0 points and 9.2 rebounds.

The best part of this development...pUKe fans REALLY wanted him.

Beard is gonna do so very well at Texas

Beard to Texas really was a match made in Heaven. If everything works out there, UT could really be set to rise to the top echelon of college basketball, especially if some current elite programs fumble coaching changes.

Key coming back to Indiana State for the extra year.   Glad he is coming back but thought he could go somewhere bigger for his extra year. 

Wow. Hope he gets a few of those guys to come back with him.

J.J. Caldwell (New Mexico) to the portal.  Has one of the strangest stat lines in the game.....true pass first point guard, played 31 minutes per game last year and only averaged 5.8 points but added 5.7 assists.

You are not kidding. A 6’1” pg who had as many rebounds as shot attempts and more steals than to’s. I’d like to see this kid play.

Yeah, he does everything.  Except score.  And can't shoot the three.  So basically he's good at everything except the things you would expect a 6'1" player to be.

Glanced at his game log yesterday and iirc he’s only scored in double figures once in college, which is remarkable for someone who has played as many minutes as he has
