If so, doesn’t sound like Vince announcement is this week — or someone will be asked to play the 4.

If we need to like Cliff again, here's a good article from last year. https://www.usatoday.com/story/spor...donates-nil-money-salvation-army/11436476002/
Vince isn’t gonna worry Cliff. But it might be a ledlum / Quin situation.

Had some decent games in a 5 point loss to Florida (14 points) and 6 point loss to South Carolina (14points) but production seemed to tail off later in the season. Not sure if injury was involved. However rebounding , 3 to 4 in those games was not impressive.

Some said we’re going to finish in the bottom four of the conference next year. Not saying we’re going to get these guys but I’ve learned to relax a bit.
I was freaking out last year and we landed a number of really good kids. We have a hall of fame coach and by all accounts a good amount of NIL $.
Yeah, Pitino may not be a young man but I don’t think that means he has no idea what he’s doing when it comes to NIL. Of course he’s fallible but the school and he have made a big investment with the program and I still have faith we’re going to get some good kids.

Agree Deivon Smith is the guy we need to replace what Jenkins was for us last year!
I guess this also means Dingle isn’t coming back.
Silly and MR are most definitely not the same posters. MR is Duke of Earlington and Silly is…. I know who he is but out of respect to him he deserves a new start plus I met him and he’s a really nice guy
Truly are the MJ of poster identification. lol
If anyone types enough words for a year I’ll flat predict who it is. Dinkins is “ new school “ he uses various websites to gather info “ I use Redmen. I’ll say this and anyone try and test me. Start a new s teen name and post 500 times I’ll probably get you by 100 but 500 I own you

if we can find a way to get Smith, the squad is set and anything else will be gravy.

Disaster?
Please enlighten why this portal season is a disaster. It is still early in the process with over 1000 players in portal and more to come in next 8 days.
We have kept all our important pieces (Wilcher, Zuby. Luis, Brady) and add 2 skilled young guys in Lefty and Glover. Maker will take some time but he also brings height and athleticism that may be needed in small stretches next year.
Can we trust the HOF coach will get the players who will create a TEAM. He had to react quickly last year given where we were in the process. I much prefer the slow and methodical process.
Rather be highly selective them impulsive in this chaotic time.
Also I have never seen so much whining over the possible loss of a center who has limited offensive skills and whose team last year was a disaster in the Big Ten. By talk here you think we are losing out on a 21 year old game changer like Lew Alcindor Hakeem Olajuwon or Patrick Ewing. I get that he is terrific defensively but let’s face it most of the college basketball games in 2024 are won by the teams who shoot the best percentage from 3 anyway. Like the NFL and NBA…offense is king!
