  1. As a Mavs fan, I absolutely hated Shawn Bradley. Now I feel kinda bad about it, given what’s happened to him.
  2. This kid is really really good. He’s about to get paid big.
  3. Woke up to a bunch of replies from Derka and I am not reading all that shit. I’m fine with shit talking on a message board though. It’s what 90% of all message boards are. As for Morris, he can kick rocks. Carr, Hunter and Rice were all better than him last year. I am not going to get mad at the coaching staff for playing their best players. We don’t make that E8 run without those 3 doing their thing. I wish Morris had patience, he would’ve gotten a ton of minutes this year, but most 5 stars aren’t trying to wait for anything these days.
  4. People don’t want to do it, but the sport would be better off if the kids just got paid directly. Then you could treat it like pro sports and have enforceable contracts. NIL is truly the Wild West.
  5. You’re both right, but I thought Holland could be the rare freshman that still makes an impact.
  6. I don’t like being a roller coaster of emotion, it’s a long offseason and season. It’s silly to be reactionary to every single thing. But it’s hard to expect others to be even keel with this one, especially when it’s less than a day after the good Abmas news. This is some Jekyll and Hyde shit.
  7. Ironically, thats exactly what shadow_op was screaming about yesterday. But I ain’t gonna complain about it, this sucks. Especially the timing. If you’re gonna leave, then leave. Why wait this late?
  8. Couldn’t even get 24 hours of happiness 😑.
  9. Recruits decommit after a coaching change, I get that, but I don’t understand the timing at all. He waited really late.
  10. Now that’s legitimately bad. I hope he still gives us a chance like he says, but I don’t think you decommit if that’s really true.
  11. He also was just a Freshman this past year, he’s got 3 years of eligibility left. You can sell him on starting in the future since Abmas is a one year rental.
  12. This kids dad played for Calipari at UMass. If Kentucky is interested, they’d probably have a leg up in this recruitment.
  13. I literally got into it with you last week about the exact same thing before Abmas and Shedrick committed. And I have no interest in re-litigating that with you.
  14. We need another guard and probably a wing. This kid I mentioned the other day from UTA is one kid I know is on the radar. Athletic and a good 3 point shooter.
  15. Read my post and read yours and tell me which one of us is whining right now. Your ability to play victim is mesmerizing. Nobody is demonizing you, they’re just disagreeing with you. Get over it.
  16. Apparently it’s a German name, and that isn’t supposed to be a “b” but a German letter that doesn’t exist in our alphabet called an eszett. An eszett kinda looks like an uppercase “B” though, so somewhere along the line someone just said “fuck it, make it a b” even though it’s not pronounced that way at all.
  17. Js1 has got it.
  18. Texas fans who don’t pay close attention to college basketball are going to be confused as hell when they figure out how “Abmas” is pronounced.
  19. No, RT just had an in-home with him. He stayed in Cali and committed to SDSU. I don’t think there was much of a realistic chance there.
  20. We had an in-home with a USC kid too. But both him and Dunn are ranked much lower than Abmas and Shedrick by pretty much everyone who does these type of rankings.
  21. Abmas and Shedrick were our top 2 portal targets and we landed both. Patience is a virtue that this board does not have. This shit only took a single month. RT was officially hired on March 27.
  22. The problem isn’t Drew, the problem is Paul Mills. I assume Abmas trust Mills given that he stayed with him at ORU for as long as he did. If Mills is joining his former Baylor buddies on the negative recruiting, it could have an affect. But in the age of NIL, it might not matter. Those other schools shouldn’t be able to put together a better package than us.
  23. Damn that would be a big loss, he’s an Oklahoma kid. You posted in the 24 thread that LSU is being extra agressive this cycle right, that will make things very hard for us with Durham’s teammate Colin Simmons.
  24. Most of those guys ain’t exactly heralded players and we’re likely processed, but a few of them were guys Deion wanted to keep, most notably Lemonious-Craig.
