Throw them all out and start an organization that takes education seriously. There have to be enough schools in that category to get it going.

My guess is this guy understands where he can be successful. He’ll have the ball a lot at Akron.

The economic value to the canonized is zero, and it also requires you to be dead. Just saying...

It still has to bear good fruit. A for effort, though.

I would reserve judgement until we find out how many of them really get paid, and how many of them gave up free educations to chase money that never materialized. Although, the legal tampering certainly reduces the financial risk of the players.

We took the risk, and they reap the reward.

You're slandering the Wild West.

He got a better offer.Not good.

Preferably ones who can play.

Stats and lies. I don’t know the specifics, but I’m guessing that if you measured Fox’s numbers after his health improved and playing time increased, it might reflect a different and more accurate picture of what is than your all season data.

No correction needed or asked for if you know what they mean.

Not enough shots and balls for all of them.

Two of the three you mention are companies run basically by one guy who can do whatever he wants with no questions asked. As far as I know, our big publicly held companies here has ownership more spread out and boards and shareholders need to be convinced this is wise use of their money. Right...

You may have hit the bullseye. Or maybe they are throwing their money at higher priority prospects and not Payne. He’s high risk with the back problems and doesn’t have perimeter skills. He’s not complete like many want. I’d take him in a heartbeat but it’s not automatic.

Way bigger investment for Payne than the others. The others are more likely flyers and low risk. Whoever gets Payne is taking a risk with money and needs to have much greater certitude.

Colt was a major miss by Tubby. He didn’t appreciate how good he was. The other two had non basketball reasons for leaving.

Interesting take. I doubt it. Basketball is basically a pretty inexpensive sport. I think Hodger said a while back that the tracks run both ways. They lose good players but they are also gaining with fringe power 5 guys dropping down. I think middling big programs might be at higher risk. But...

Highly doubtful he’s getting big money there. I really thought he would end up in mid majors.

I thought he was a lock for Saint Louis with his coach.

Greenlee for sure was thought to be no loss and the mob going after freshmen was wrong. Cobbs was a good player too, but I don’t think the consensus was quite as strong on him. Big loss but pretty sure major personal reasons for his departure.
