Re: Portal 2024

If we are pursuing Kugel, it is because we are going to run three guard offense like Baylor did during their national championship. CJ Jones. 6 ft 5 and can handle the ball, Kugel 6 ft 5 and can played point guard, Max Jones 6 ft 4 and played point guard. Add in Dug and Castillo as 6 ft 1 guards who...

Re: Team hopping and the unrealistic dream of the NBA

RJ Jones signed with TCU. Colbert signed with SMU. Still on scholarship. Both still getting NIL money. Maybe they get more playing time. Maybe they do not. But hard to see how they have hurt their future. Lots of fans were not bothered when these guys transferred. We had signed the guy from Nova an...

Re: Portal 2024

5 scholarships left so having one for Kalumn issue. K State would take him back. Kaluma was wise to put himself on the open market. He should maximize his earning potential. He will be sought after by other high majors. Maybe he comes back if we are the best option. FYI. Kaluma was 3rd in the league...

Re: Dean Wade

I think Dean owes his success to the great coaching he received as a youth and in HS. He is talented and smart. I hope injuries will not shorten his NBA career. When that time comes, he would make great addition to coach Tang’s staff, or open up a training school for college big men that is located...

Re: Dai Dai Gone!!

As a fan, I feel like I can hate the current process, while still doing #1 and #3. I'm not ready to check out... yet. Regarding Finister, I don't think there was an outcry when he left because it was pretty much expected he would enter the portal. Dai Dai was a different story. He was someone who w...

Re: Portal 2024

I would take Toppin before or instead of Omoruyi. I do not really care if we get him or not. I am more interested in who they replace Kaluma with. The answer to who replaces Kaluma "should" be Taj Manning. Manning has been in the program for two years, so he is the same age as Kaluma was when he ca...

Re: Dai Dai Gone!!

Xtra, thank you for a nice post and discussion. I do not have a problem with the expression of one's faith as long as one does not proselytize when given a public podium. I have a problem with Tang's promotion of what I know to be a dangerous form of faith. Namely, that God will bless one with mate...
