    Devin Williams - Done

    What I'd give to see some of those highlights in person when he is matched up against Hines at home next year,

    OT: Top Gun turns 40

    Loved it as a kid and thought they did a fantastic job with the sequel almost 40 years later.

    PF/C Targets

    Seems like you're just trolling now. List points for players who plated at lesser schools and just say "played at" for players who played at a better school but did not score much? You don't think the 17 for Jones, 14 for Brown, 16 for Thomas compares to Clark, Simkins and Fisher? No one here...

    PF/C Targets

    Compare this year to last year at this point in time though. At this point last year, we didn't have Fisher, Hines, Parker or Williams. We lost Wusu, Coleman, Jenkins, Middleton and Dual and replaced them with Clark Simpkins and McCray. The general consensus here was not optimistic at all...

    Anyone watching NBA Playoffs

    With you there. Specific matchups can be fun but otherwise the regular season can be rough. Post season is great.

    Anyone watching NBA Playoffs

    I've never seen anything like it in the playoffs. Just complete domination. Hawks played well the first few games but the Knicks flipped a switch after game 3. I love the NBA playoffs. It's the best version of basketball to watch other than the NCAA tournament in my opinion. Timberwolves...

    Nathan Mariano

    I liked Coleman. Not going to judge his efficiency since we were so bad his sophomore year. He was our only real offensive threat and was doubled teamed much of the time. No idea what happened out in Oklahoma though. He was bad out there. On paper, I'd be happy to have him back but I'll defer...

    Felton in Portal

    Agreed. If healthy, he could have had a role here for sure. Wouldn't be a starter and probably too slow on defense to stay on the floor but for 10-12 minutes off the bench he would have been serviceable. For his sake though, if he can find a place that can give him 25+ minutes next year he will...

    Will Somebody Turn Off The Lights

    Meh, the guys worth keeping were the first ones to leave so doesn’t really matter that much outside of perception… but the perception is really horrendous.

    Clark Gone

    Coleman was our only offensive threat and was constantly double teamed and still averaged 16 and 5. Not great, but on par with a solid pg that can’t shoot beyond 15ft in my opinion. Coleman gets $1.3-1.6 and Clark can demand almost double that? Ugh… no option is good there. if it’s because a...

    Clark Gone

    I don't think so but it's hard to say with the lack of transparency. I have no idea how much will will spend and no idea what players are really earning. I don’t think he’s better than Richmond or Coleman were on paper so it's hard to fathom that the market has shifted that much that he can get...

    Start blaming the school. Not the players, coaches or agents

    We're a small school with a small alumni base. Short of a salary cap or one of us winning the powerball (and then be willing to burn that money) we're kinda screwed right now. The school should invest what they can from the revenue share, but I think I'd prefer SHU be financially sound as an...

    Clark Gone

    Fair point. I just thought once Hines was gone that we would do whatever it takes to keep Clark. Maybe it is false promises from his agent, but continuity should have been worth something for us to hit the number he needed to stay. I'm worried that maybe his number was an absurd ask because he...

    Going to use this thread for SHU portal info

    lol... He made one three his first game (1 for 5) there and then one more the rest of the season (1 for 20). yikes! That's wild considering he made 38 on 30% while being double teamed most of the time the year before.

    Clark Gone

    Kinda worried about that to be honest. Just seems crazy we would not be able to match whatever Clark can get.
