247 has him listed as a PG, he will at least be a combo guard. Really fills a need.

I agree, what will be hard to replace is Hawkins shooting, that really made a difference, defensively because of his size Hawkins was a liability that shouldn't exist anymore. I would use Hawkins as an example for those who claim Johnson can't coach. He wasn't that good to start the season...

Having an agent and being in the portal are two different things entirely, an agent is there to find the best NIL deal and let's face it that is through the schools collectives. The communication that goes on between the collective and the program is another issue all together, that is where the...

This is another example of why I don't think it is poaching, Hawkins got an agent who then reaches out to his contacts to find out what he would command in the market place, then communicates it to his client, who decides to enter the portal.

Agents put the name out their to see what they can get, pretty sure they can hire an NIL agent. So far it doesn't seem like a preset destination exists. Look at Payne, he wasn't poached and is still looking. It doesn't feel like the Wisconsin players were poached.

Totally different thing, football has many more impact players. PJ didn't do to well with the skill players that stand out. Lost a boat load of quarterbacks and running backs

Coaches are going to look at the NIL treasure chest available before they even consider a job. That will be one of the driving factors in attracting new coaches.

I agree, that is on the coach though, recruiting to a certain extent. Study endurance activity, you've got about a 15 week cycle where you can go all out before the body breaks down and needs rest. You can either lower activity levels or take a break.

White especially, he was never charged with anything, he was under investigation but nothing came of it.

That is crazy, what is it about 30 per year that ever play in the NBA. Not sure what the numbers are for over seas opportunities, 250 total so maybe 50 a year. So a few percent will continue with basketball as a career and for most probably not that lucrative of a career. They can't blame anyone...

Portal worked for all parties in this case.

He's visiting Texas and Texas A&M. If he still does not have a commitment after that then there may be a possibility, highly doubt full though.

1.2 million for Ballo?

The tv contracts the SEC and Big Ten have negotiated for football and basketball say otherwise. Schools found a way to pay for the plethora of athletic programs they cannot afford. Can't have your cake and eat it to. Sure it's tied to universities but not in a very ethical manner.

He's 6'8 and 240, why can't he defend the 5, he would not be a rim protector similar to Payne but straight up he should be able to defend in the middle if he is actually 6'8.

Huffman actually shot the 3 pretty good his first two years, the last two years he really dropped off. Not a high volume shooter from the 3 though. Mitchell's free throw percentage is only about 43%, definitely a concern

t sounds like Calipari is taking the Arkansas job.

Five years, two with injuries, one year back, maybe improvement, maybe not.

You can't really depend on Carrington for anything. I sure wouldn't want him to be a big part of the rotation. Sure kids make mistakes but he would really have to earn anything big time at this point.
