That was great. Thanks for posting it.
“Best play ever”. Love it!
That was incredibly entertaining. No joke, I’d watch hours of content like this.
That was awesome
Love how complimentary the guys were to their teammates and to their opponents. I also lost it when Spike said “How did I end up guarding Gary Harris?? That was a mistake” 
Love this idea!
Purdue has contacted a Big Ten opponent for a potential transfer? You don’t say…
I wonder if the one year Smith would spend at Purdue would make him a Boilermaker.
Jamal Bieniemy to UTEP, Davide Moretti back to Italy on a pro contract.
The latter decision leaves Texas Tech with what is still possibly the deepest perimeter in the country. I’d say Kansas is another contender to that title.
20. MICHIGAN
- GONE : Zavier Simpson, Jon Teske
- COMING BACK : Eli Brooks, Brandon Johns, Adrian Nunez
- WAIT AND SEE : Isaiah Livers, Chaundee Brown, Nojel Eastern
- NEW FACES : Hunter Dickinson, Mike Smith Terrance Williams, Zeb Jackson, Jace Howard
- PROJECTED STARTERS : Mike Smith, Eli Brooks, Isaiah Livers, Franz Wagner, Hunter Dickinson
The Wolverines are going to have one of the better frontlines in college basketball in 2020-21, as they seem likely to return Isaiah Livers in addition to Franz Wagner. Throw in a recruiting class that includes Hunter Dickinson, and the Wolverines will be loaded. Their guards are old, but there are some questions about the upside of Columbia grad transfer Mike Smith and Eli Brooks. Can transfers Chaundee Brown or Nojel Eastern get eligible?
Give us an example of a past player whose waiver request was denied, why it was denied, and some current sit-outs who should probably be worried based on the precedent of that ruling.
There are a couple of examples from last spring that could potentially bode poorly for many players hoping for waiver requests this summer and fall: Jahvon Quinerly and Connor Vanover. Quinerly left Villanova for Alabama after struggling to carve out a role as a freshman. He originally committed to Arizona early in his high school career but decommitted following the FBI probe into college basketball. By all accounts, Villanova supported his waiver request. However, the NCAA denied his application and his appeal was also denied.
Then there is Vanover, who originally signed with Memphis but was released from his letter of intent after Tubby Smith was fired. He made a late decision to play at California, but Wyking Jones was fired after Vanover’s freshman season in Berkeley. Vanover, a Little Rock native, then decided to return home to be closer to his sick grandmother and play for Arkansas. Despite ticking a lot of boxes for a waiver, Vanover’s request was denied.
Those two examples cover a lot of the usual reasons for waiver requests: sick family members, playing closer to home, coach being fired, former school supporting the request.
As a result, any number of key players hoping to play immediately – whether that’s Sarr or Mac McClung or Johnny Juzang or Chaundee Brown – are not guaranteed a waiver.
Moussa Cisse reclassifying to 2020.
“I am trying to find the best way to the NBA,” Cisse told ESPN. "I want to see how my college career will go, but if I do well, I will definitely try to make a move to the NBA.
According to his thread (and Tipton Edits), he has been contacted by the G League. I would guess that he would be a prime candidate for that.
Sounds like Cisse plans on going to college. LSU sounds likely.
There’s some major connection between his handler and LSU. Andrew Slater tweeted something about it a month or two ago. So I’m sure he’s going to LSU. G league maybe has a shot to land him later in the summer if it appears more and more uncertain that there will be a season.
Seems like LSU may be more lucrative for him
Will Wade made a strong ass offer.
Sean Miller’s pivot to international recruits is fascinating to me.
