how do you feel about this type of reclass

I feel itā€™s ultimately irrelevant since he will never play in college

Why wonā€™t he play in college?

I think heā€™ll do the second OTE year and then go pro

Slater says another UNC decommit is coming (not necessarily Mich related)

juwan figured out the only way to get guys from UNC is to get to them before they ever take a class - once they do that theyā€™re permanently soiled in the eyes of admissions

A favorite last year. Is he just going pro abroad after the deadline? Didnā€™t even realize he had eligibility left

The text chain ripping Mosley as an unserious player and defensive liability that @buckets12 posted about Moseley last year was on point. Good scout DV.

Cal potentially bringing in 8 freshmen, including 3 potential lotto picks, is going to be one of the fascinating stories of the 2023-24 season.

Add in USC with the Bronny James show and thereā€™s going to be some juicy implosion-possible storylines this year.

I mean short of his name being ā€œBronny Jamesā€ is there a reason to think an implosion will happen there? I donā€™t recall hearing much about him having character issues or being the center of attention, but I honestly havenā€™t paid attention much. Also from what I gather heā€™s not a ball dominant player and should excel at things like defense, passing and shooting. Doesnā€™t really scream implosion to me

Nothing personal against him. Just the weight of enormous expectations for a team that is going to rely on a couple of freshmen heavily and have tons of media attention at every turn.

Iā€™m excited to watch them, they could end up fun. I think Collier is really good. Just that high expectations and young teams are a slippery slope.

Enfields teams usually rank like 40th to 60th in KenPom expect for the Mobley team. This team will be preseason top 15ā€¦

the biggest implosion potential at USC is Boogie

Boogie plus Collier has some blow up potential for sure

I almost feel bad for Bronny because heā€™s probably going to be a ā€œpretty goodā€ college freshman this year but the expectations and media attention have made him out to be LeBron2.0 and thatā€™s not who he is. So if USC has a bumpy year or he has a season like Jett or Kobe with some highs and lowsā€¦how does that work out?

is that true? I feel like most have a good grasp on what kind of player he is, just with outsized attention cause his name is Lebron James. Or maybe Iā€™m too insulated by ball knowers

I think only the super casuals are going to be expect Lebron v2. Even the most sensationalistic bball journalists have been pretty transparent about him being a facilitator.

Nah, I donā€™t think thatā€™s the expectation at all. It is just that thereā€™s going to be a lot of cameras and eye balls on that team IMO.
