    Premium TU making waves in recruiting with big-time commitments

    1000X this. Plus his chance of long-term success is higher being a big fish in a medium sized pond, if he can get by on only $2m per year salary..... Tho maybe it's better to burn out than to fade away... ?

    Premium TU making waves in recruiting with big-time commitments

    He had a couple of good but not great teams at ASU. If you asked "do you think this team was successful" the answer would be yes for several of his TU teams but at best "almost" at his other places. I wonder if he was happier being "almost good enough" at ASU than he was being "good" at TU?

    Premium TU making waves in recruiting with big-time commitments

    Those guys are both good warnings for Tre. Both of their career pinnacles were at TU. Sure, they made more $$ elsewhere but never achieved really. Sometimes the green on the other side of the fence is thorns, not grass.

    I saw that South Carolina's WBB team had a collective GPA last year of 3.67. Paige Bueckers, who for a while got more NIL $$ than any other college athlete, male or female, graduated with about that GPA. Kids who value education are doing well. The issue is less NIL and more societal. The %...

    Haggerty to KS State 2 Million or More

    SGA played his last year of HS in the US so he's kind of a tweener and Embiid went to HS in the US. Looks like maybe 4 of the top 15 vote getters this year were int'l.

    That's completely not the point. The game exists for the fans. Fans from both teams should have a reasonable opportunity to attend. Attending playoff games is a reward for fans who have followed the team, that should be available to both sides. BTW, if the Thunder don't think having the...

    I had never seen the emoji Switzer used. I had to google it. đź‘´ BTW, if you want a sign you're old, googling emojis is it.

    According to the internets... The face exhaling emoji primarily conveys feelings of relief, exhaustion, or blowing smoke. It can also be used to express amazement, shock, or awe in response to something unexpected or impressive. The emoji is essentially a combination of the surprised face emoji...

    I'm excited to see how the guys come together. There's a lot more 3PT shooting than Konkol has had before, hopefully he can use spacing and motion to open things up. He obviously prioritized 3PT in his recruiting, I assume he has a plan for how to use it.
