Gotta be transferring right? He hasn’t shown enough this year to go any professional route

Could easily be going to the G League or anything else if he wanted IMO. The timing is off for a transfer too if he’s played this semester.

He also didn’t mention the word transfer.

Other words not mentioned include:

  • School
  • Class
  • Student

To his credit, he does thank his advisors, tutors, and professors. Maybe college really wasn’t for him, even the SEC version of college. Then again, aren’t certain one and done players typically finished with the whole going-to-classes thing by now?

Appreciate the edit piece describing your definition because when I look at the roster for next year it leaves me wondering who will be able to create off the dribble for themselves and others among the returnees and current recruits. I know a lot can change in that time but need to get a guy or two who are productive dribblers on their own.

So the Pelicans lost to the Nuggets by 7 tonight. Zion Williamson played 21 minutes, scoring 15 on 7-9 shooting. His +/-? +16. lol.

Not sure there’s anyone in the country I’d rather have take the last shot than Kamar Baldwin. Kid is unconscious right now. 28 points in the 2nd half and OT against Marquette. Lavall Jordan has a sleeper title contender in this group IMO

Anyone know how serious Aaron Thompson’s wrist injury is? He missed tonight’s game, as did Christian David, who as of a few nights ago is out for the season with a torn ACL. He’s one of those guys who makes smart plays, hustle plays, et cetera. They’re a deep team, but losing him hurts the frontcourt.
This was probably posted elsewhere, but Aaron Thompson is on the midseason team for defensive player of the year, as is Zavier Simpson.

You guys, North Carolina is actually going to win a game.

Florida down six to Miss State with under 4:00 left at home. Biggest disappointment in hoops other than UNC?

EDIT: And Florida loses.

Virginia takes down FSU in Charlottesville. Also Syracuse loses at the buzzer in Clemson. Basketball is fun again for at least one day!

This is pretty surprising from Coach K. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BorcsqmjCec

He’s always come off as such a likable asshole.

Did you mean dis-likable?

No, it was an oxymoron to make a joke.

I think the quintessential Coach K summation is him sanctimoniously lecturing Dillon Brooks and lying about it, only to backtrack and admit to it once Brooks sheepishly made comments acknowledging said lecture.
