@Stuhoo small request my friend, could we keep the first post in the thread dedicated to just updated player disposition and their current status (portal/exploratory/etc)?  That could serve as a nice one-stop-shop so members don't have to hunt through multiple pages of in the thread.  Thank you sir!

Well @Stuhoo failed miserably after liking this post... but no worries Memphis I got you covered.... 1st post is updated!

Woody gotta tell momma Geronimo they can facetime every night if she needs and rent her an apartment in Bloomington if she wants haha

JMO, any and all speculation about Geronimo is just unfounded worry. Everything I've heard is that he is absolutely back, expected to be a key player for us next season, running right off his last few games and tourney play, and post-game interviews. He aint going anywhere

I can see why JG and Logan want to see who is coming back, and/or are trying to figure out where they would fit next year, but is anyone nervous that Bates hasn’t stated he is returning?
The 2 spot is WIDE open for him and the draft is obviously not an option so I’m a bit surprised he hasn’t indicated he is staying in Bloomington….

Early on there was a tweet from his father strongly implying he would be staying at IU.

That’s good to hear.

Was starting to wonder if he wasn’t happy with his playing time or possibly wanted to be closer to his child (I say that having no idea where that might be nor is it any of my business).

Mom and Dad, no? Or maybe I’m misremembering.

Not following you.

Very cryptic tweet from X -- but I'm pretty sure I cracked it. 

"You" can also be spelled "ewe."

So, he's essentially saying "Just be ewe." 

A ewe is a female sheep. A male sheep is a ram. He's gonna be a Ram.

Pretty obvious -- he's either transferring to VCU (Rams) or to play for Arch at Rhode Island (also the Rams). 

Or ... He plays with a bit of an edge -- a wolf in sheep's clothing, if you will. He could be going to play for Steve Alford and the Nevada Wolf Pack. Or maybe the N.C. State Wolfpack. 

So it's down to four schools for X -- VCU, Rhode Island, Nevada or N.C. State.

Could also be Colorado St or Fordham. Or its Just be 'U' and its Miami. Or its Just 'BU' and it could be Baylor or Butler.

Ok hear me out…
 

“You”

Sounds like “Uwe” kinda

Uwe Blab’s best feature????

Yeah, you’re following me now…

X has a hair appointment coming and he’s toying with the idea of going full ginger.

Interesting read.

Also contains sort of a surprise ending: Am I the only one who thought Billy Packer was long gone?

From USF to UCF lol.  That's like transferring from IU to the Purdumpsters.  That would be an interesting change

Probably, but he could probably get minutes at a low tier ACC school. I'm not sure where NC State projects.

Desert, Horrorlando, NC 4th cousin university, or private education on arguably most beautiful campus in the US.

 

Tough call

UCF is a pretty nice place. Really improving its academic standing -- over 50,000 undergrads and a modern 'city of students' on the edge of Orlando, Fla. Especially when you consider that you're in Florida from September through May, and not in the summer.
