As I replied before:
You can call it an excuse, sure. I don't. I don't like it either, but its the reality.
Dennis Evans was signed here. Got a massive NIL deal elsewhere, he leaves.
Battle is from here, staff spent a lot of time with him. By all accounts he's a nice, well rounded kid. That...

Also, he's 21/61. Last year he was at 36.6%, or 22.3/61. If he had made 2 more, he'd be at a higher %.
Sure, you'd like to see him be at 38%+ or some improved number, but with this sample size he's pretty much at the same shooting percentage.
Your guess is incorrect, he's not going anywhere.
Who are 'people' going to call? That would be tampering / NCAA violation. PP isn't going anywhere either.
Because we have 2 scorers in the starting lineup. Need offense in the second unit, which PP provides coming off the bench.
Completely disagree with the zone and blocking out, typically its much more difficult to block out with a zone scheme.
Good summary, I agree with basically everything here. Carrington's FT misses were just a statistical fluke, he'll make them. Cooper is thinking too much; lots of body language after the release. PP is going to have to pick up a lot of rebounding slack, agree JOJ will also need to contribute...
I think Ben was trying to send Treyton a message on Monday. He failed to attack a couple rebounds, and missed a defensive rotation early. The proverbial doghouse. He'll play more going forward.
That being said, PP is obviously better.
