If they get Ingram which is likely and convince derryck thornton to reclassify they will be solid again next year. Already have 2 good signs and Obi coming in as a transfer who gets mad boards.

I don't doubt that they will be solid, but they were solid with Jabari Parker and lost in the first round. Coach K always has a solid team but having a group of great players doesn't almost make a great team. They will be competitive and ranked in the top 10 all year but this years team (like Kentucky's team this year) was a team that really were in sync and its hard to replicate that year in and year out

Not news about a player, but former IU assistant coach John Treolar is rejoing the LSU staff as Associate Head Coach.  I had lost track of him and did not realize that since 2008 he has been Director of Player Personnel for the Phoenix Suns.  What mighta or coulda happened if he had been named head coach instead of Mike Davis?

Last years team was flawed from the get go. They played no D and no true big man. Do agree that it is hard to duplicate. Too much turnover for players to bond.

NC State getting bit twice today.  Earlier today Trevor Lacey announced for the draft and now sophomore post player Kyle Washington says he is transferring.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 84,137]

Austin Colbert a sophomore at Illinois is going to transfer. 

[Beowulf50 816]

Remy Abell's heart really must be in Indiana... He was back today playing some pickup games at the HPER.

Wow, I wish it would have worked out for him here.

Is Porzingis a misprint? Shouldn't he be in the international group..... with all the other international prospects. Mudiay would make more sense, sense ya know he actually was committed to a school at one point

Talk about being a bad judge of character in basketball recruits, Bruce Weber may win first prize.  This from the Associated Press earlier today:  "Kansas State coach Bruce Weber has dismissed freshman forward Malek Harris from the team, the fifth underclassman who will not be returning to the Wildcats next season.  Weber said Friday that Harris was unable to live up to the expectations of the program. Harris joins sophomore guard Marcus Foster and freshman forward Tre Harris in getting kicked off the team, while sophomore guards Jevon Thomas and Nigel Johnson have transferred."

I'm in the dark here. What did they do? Do we know?

I'm trying to find out.  I've got an old classmate who lives in that area and has become a diehard K-State fan.  If he'll talk, I'll pass along what I hear.
