Didn't TT just lose its coach to a higher bidder? Maybe he doesn't want to play for the new coach.

The more I think about it, the more I wonder if he’s not on to something. He will have been coached by at least three different high level college coaches and will have to play with three entirely new sets of teammates by the time he leaves. Imagine all the knowledge and different perspectives he can get from that.

He’s probably not staying in the draft so he must be going to yet another school. What’s with that kid? I guess it’s the new reality. An all-out free-for all.

You have got to be joking. The kid never knew what he wanted.

Mocking Mac for possibly going to his third school after his head coach is leaving Texas tech while many (not all) of the same people are hoping to be the 4th school for Pauly Paulicap....

I'm not mocking him, I'm saying the kid is a major douchebag/me-first guy. He is what he is.

What makes you say that? The only other thing that I have read about him is that he decommitted from here because he did not get along with one of our players on his official visit has me question that also.

While Pauly will technically be on his 4th school, I find this statement a little disingenuous; his first school was a junior college. After 3 years at Manhattan he was a graduate transfer to DePaul (notice the emphasis on graduate). Now the NCAA gifts him with a 5th year of eligibility and he is looking around for a new opportunity. I think it safe to say many of us would admit that most all graduate transfers are a bit mercenary in nature.

Now compare that to Mac; commits to RU, then decommits, spends two years at GU and then one year at TT. Now he is looking again. One could say he is looking for this 4th school if you count RU!

From Mac explaining on why he was leaving GU: "I'm looking for a place I can call home. A place I can be a part of a family and help them succeed."

Question: If Mac does not have his degree yet, will he have to sit out a year or has the NCAA waived that for all undergrad transfers this Covid year?

I'm not a McClung fan but I've never heard anything from any former teammates that he was a me-first guy or a douchebag or anything close to that.

I have heard that he is a worker. Just looking at the improvements in his perimeter shooting accuracy, his ability to draw fouls and that he ranked second in assists and fifth in DREB (at 6-foot-3) at TTU is impressive.

Players who are me first typically don't have the second most assists on their team.

There is a lot of hypocrisy when it comes to recruiting as fans try spinning comments in favor of the recruits they want versus other recruits that be more talented.

Yup. Every message board everywhere does that.

Pike deserves all the credit in the world for judging talent and being the first to offer.

First of all he didn’t mesh well with your team because all the kid wanted to do is play basketball. He didn’t care about the campus, he didn’t care about the facility, he didn’t care about playing video games. He has tunnel vision and just wants to be the best. That’s why your players didn’t vibe with him on his official. Mac is all about basketball. So please stop sh***** on the kid.

In case anyone is interested, Mac was on the latest Ryen Russillo podcast talking about his travels from the G-League to playing with the Bulls/Lakers this past season.
Looks like he got into 2 NBA games this past year and scored a couple of points.

Note - I haven't listened to the actual interview. No interest myself.
