    Wow that is huge. Would love to hear some details on what the NIL was and what the other schools were offering just so I can get a feel for the lay of the land. But either way damn good job stepping up and doing what it takes.

    A minimum $25,000 donation gets you the inside info.

    Nice! We needed him for next year. I've heard McNair may leave for more playing time if Tolu came back. We just picked up the big from West Virginia and also have a 7 ft Center Gai Chol coming in so we are pretty big in the post right now

    I could swing it, but the resulting divorce would break the budget. I'll pass this time lol

    Word. Can you imagine. "Honey, if we donate $25,000, we can keep a key player for our beloved Maroon and White. Now he may have to learn to shoot 3s but it would give us a chance to make the NCAAT again. You don't mind stepping down this year to a Toyota instead of another Acura, you know, for the team?!!?"

    Yea Davis or Moore starts over Hubbard at point guard for sure.

    We may see JaQuan Scott at the 3 some. He's 6'8" but he moves well for his size, I'd like to see him push DJ for minutes hopefully it will light a fire under DJ. Scott has moved up to the #1 JUCO player in the nation, Trey Fort is #5:

    Agreed. Cam has never really been an offensive threat but the energy he brings and the little things he does makes it hard to pull him out of games, he's a big strong tough kid who can change a game. DJ on the other hand frustrates me because the offensive talent is there, he just hasn't been able to put it together for whatever reason.

    I see another NCAAT with that bunch. Going to be lot of losses next year but we are built to make a good run with talent and experience returning.

    It's been rumored that McNair was waiting on Tolu's decision so I would expect McNair to leave. I also wonder if there may be someone out there that may want to transfer in now that Tolu has announced he's staying. Maybe another shooter that knows they should get open looks with Tolu getting a lot of attention.
    Either way it looks like basketball season will be fun.
