Probably the best thing that could happen to Malik's careerQuote:

I'd trade a Malik Newman for an Andrew White every single time. Make it happen Howland.
Malik can eat a dick. That's the same thing we sold him on. What a Prima Donna asshole. Good luck riding the pine so to speak and being picked in the second round in two years. What a stupid stupid situation this was all around. If Kansas had gotten Thornton, they wouldn't have even brought Malik in.Quote:

I think everybody is pretty much over Malik & were the moment he announced he was transferring. I just find it funny that you're so upset over a kid that you don't think is that good.Quote:

I also don't like what Horatio/Newman were saying publicly about Howland as well. This whole situation just was the dumbest thing I have ever seen in college basketball if you really want to be a one and done. And with that mantra it wouldn't surprise me if he sits out a year and bolts for the NBA without even playing for Kansas.Quote:

Good job Coach. We are MSU, not the Malik Newman development program. He will never be as good as he and his Daddy think he is. They have Lebron expectations, but Ravern Johnson skills. (But that may be an insult to Ravern, bc he could shoot)
Oh Horatio will be there.Quote:

He probably would have gone pro after one year but at least he wouldn't have done this whole stupid transfer bullshit. I will say this though with reckless abandon. Thank goodness we got rid of that damn floor! That caused our basketball team countless countless injuries.
I know you saw Renardo Sidney, that situation was dumb.Quote:

This team will be a fast paced team. Last year's was decent at it but we didn't have the capabilities this one will. That to me is what burns me up the most because it is now going to be a recruiting tool used against us that idiots like Bonner and Cronin perpetuate as fact.
Yeah, I tried to forget about that. It's like those three years never happened. Ray ruined those seniors too. Would have been great if those kids would have bought in before the season instead of December. Last year we could have won 20 games if that had happened.Quote:
