  1. It’s only negative if we do nothing to replace him. There are better options in the portal. I appreciated Mitchell’s energy and rebounding, but he often kneecapped our offense.
  2. There was rumored to be a love triangle between Jason Kidd, Toni Braxton, and Jimmy Jackson. If I’m remembering correctly, Braxton went on the radio to promote her album and wouldn’t deny the rumors, so everyone assumed they were true. Kidd and Jackson have always denied it and claimed Braxton did what she did because it was good promo for her album. Jamal Mashburn, who was also on that Mavs team, also says the story wasn’t true, but claims that the rumors gained so much steam that they did in fact hurt the locker room and helped lead to the breakup of that team The Spurs one, Tony Parker just slept with Brent Barry’s wife.
  3. Only 23 minutes per game, but he led the country in usage rate during those. This is a guy I’d be worried about fitting in. He’s gonna have to be willing to buy into a much smaller role with Beard.
  4. Y’all are talking about message board rumors with a weirdly high degree of certainty.
  5. Ignoring how your response is a complete non-sequitur to mine. You do realize that Weaver also came from a team that didn’t make the NCAA tournament right? You aren’t making a coherent argument at all.
  6. Well, this is not football, so that’s not a thing. But also, many of the best transfers come from non-power conferences. And more importantly, Larry is a guy I think can play well alongside volume scorers. We just landed Arkansas’ leading scorer, I think it’s a good fit.
  7. Yep, they won 32 games this year. But the selection committee decided to rock with sorry ass Virginia.
  8. Well damn, Larry can play with dominant guards for sure.
  9. If Hunter is gone, like we assume, I don’t think it’s too overboard. We definitely need a PG.
  10. Your booster friend likely just read a random message board post like everyone else.
  11. Will go ahead and post it here too. It’s a big time pickup.
  12. There’s a whole thread for this. https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/topic/33641-fire-rodney-terry/#comments
  13. Yep, posted in the basketball board, but the roster management needs to be more organized. Instant impact freshman and guys willing to wait are the only high school players we should be recruiting. If Cam Scott doesn’t fit either of those, then we shouldn’t have signed him in the first place.
  14. Probably true, but I would like the roster management to be more organized. The reality for Cam Scott today shouldn’t be all that different from when he signed. If he doesn’t fit now, he didn’t fit then. So why did we even pursue and sign him? Why did he sign? The whole thing seems silly to me.
  15. Yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s Wheeler. Of note: Jinkens is currently the LB coach at Skyline high, I’m sure he helped a bit in this recruitment.
  16. Vogel says he was about to enter the portal anyway. https://ontexasfootball.com/forums/topic/1245-smaje-burrell-no-longer-on-the-texas-team/?do=findComment&comment=14633
  17. Even if this thing crashes and burns the way some of y’all are predicting, Terry still won’t be as bad as Shaka, he’s already cleared that low bar.
  18. It works like normal if you’re transferring out of a service academy, but I think you have to do it before your junior year. Can’t transfer into one though, they don’t take transfer credits. Service academies also are not allowed to do any kind of NIL.
  19. Avila has a no contact tag in the portal, which means he already knows where he’s going. Likely following his coach to St. Louis.
  20. This would make him one of the best coaches in program history. I get that we want to aspire to greater things, but the framing of this is still humorous.
  21. I could see Edey sticking in the NBA as a situational bench guy. He’s Canadian Boban. He’s also probably going to go higher in this draft than his skillset dictates, because this draft class stinks.
  22. 100% agree that a healthy Houston would’ve been the next best team.
  23. UConn was just clearly better than everyone all season and all tourney. There weren't any great teams this year other than them.
  24. He might actually sneak into the first round, but only because this is an absolutely terrible draft. He wouldn't sniff the first round in an average draft.
