And a defibrillator 

I can’t imagine they had to use a defibrillator if he’s out of the hospital already. Maybe though…ultimately let’s hope there’s a path back to the court for him. Scary when it involves the heart and a sport like basketball.

He's out of the hospital already?  Yeah...I tend to agree.  I kinda doubt it was sudden cardiac arrest then

It was reported that he’s out of ICU, not the hospital. Not sure if that’s the latest update though. Trying to find updates online is a mess.

I saw that, was just going of str8baller's word that he was out of the hospital.  Ok...I revert back to my original stance then lol

After reading a story this morning, I believe you guys are correct. I misinterpreted something that made me think he got to come home.

Can't be any worse than what college sports has become. They need to regulate the NIL to what is actually was meant to be and not just people donating money to collectives.  They also need to enforce the rule on transferring more than once and not keep allowing multiple transfers without sitting out. They say coaches can leave anytime they want but they do have to pay tbe buyout

Pac 12 better get on the ball or they will have to disband. I would think the Big Ten is still looking at a couple of Pac 12 teams

The person familiar with the Big 12’s discussions said the conference would ideally like to expand to 16 schools with Arizona, Arizona State, Utah and Colorado all coming over from the Pac-12 to create a Western wing of the league.

I think they basically have. It was always going to be a fight between those two to see who cannibalized who.   
 

I think they become the third “super conf,” although they are kind of light weights in football at this point. And football is what really matters.  If the ACC gets absorbed or can carve itself out as a 4th maj conference is probably the last domino to fall in the next year or so.

Interesting read. I agree that the current model isn’t sustainable. Not sure what you can do about it.
