Why are we making up 3million $ numbers?
Nobody knows what’s going on here at all, and baseless speculation is not helping the situation.

By the way, if RJ leaves it doesn’t help with our portal recruiting. Guys are interested in coming here to play on a BE tournament championship caliber team. Even Sanon could reconsider his decision.
Why are you assuming it's made up?

The last thing I’m worried about is players losing interest in us because RJ isn’t here. If anything they’ll be more interested as they’ll see a bigger role available for themselves. RJ is a great player and not shading him at all but he’s not a player that makes plays for others or makes his teammates better. They also know we’ll be competitive regardless with Rick leading the way
 
I think we should trust that our coach knows what players want to be coached vs those that want to act like they are NBA players and the coach is just a management necessity.
If RJ thinks he is above the decisions of the coach, as he exhibited against Arkansas, then realize that we are not in the sweet 16 because he failed to rise to the coach's expectations in the biggest game of the season and his career.
Look at a player that had a similar season last year at Wisconsin, AJ Storr, and went to Kansas for more money. His stock actually fell and Kansas had a disappointing season.
 
Well, that luckily won't force us to rehash any

I made that same point earlier. Leave a good situation for the wrong situation as Kansas was a mess as was Storr.

So the lose is entirely RJ's fault? Only guy that played well was Zuby.
 
What I can tell you is RJ going into the Portal is an option. Not definite and not even definite that he would leave even if he does go into the Portal.

Again let's not pretend we know what is best for these kids. If someone is throwing absurd amount of $$$ at him and I can assure you some are so be it. I hope he comes back but if not I wish him well. Good kid did great things for SJU.

I beg you leave the kid alone on social media. This is not life and death for us.

Be clear, SJU will be good either way. They have the best coach they could possibly have and they will get players either way.

Agreed. Bottom line is RJ saw the rest of the team struggling and tried to take control. Unfortunately it failed and everything blew up. We all make mistakes, it happens. I would love RJ back but if he leaves I'm rooting for him as long as he doesn't play against us

Trilly is usually spot on with his SJU stuff and there’s no way he’d post a player of RJ’s caliber without being 100% sure that he’s planning to go in.

To me, once he hits the portal there’s no way he’s coming back. He’s going to get an absurd offer from someone and that’ll be that.

I agree with the rest though that we’ll still be fine
 
dk how you going to like this message and then also post things totally different in the Discord?
I said on the discord that we literally should wait until after the combine to make any judgement on the roster.

I think RJ is good as gone, so if that’s what Marillac is referring to, 🤷🏻‍♂️
 
Then I interpreted his comment differently. Whoops.

I trust Trilly and think he’s gone. Before we all think that next year’s roster will be worse and the season worse, we need to let the portal play out. I expect our offense to be upgraded and to have more shooters. I’m not worried at all.
Totally agree and not worried at all. Just not wishing him good riddance and acting like he didn’t just do fantastic things for us last year like most in there are.
