True, but wouldn't the money be basically the same whether we're good or bad?

So basically a good roster costs 8-10 million now in basketball

The Sun Belt player of the year Tayton Conerway is on campus today. 6'3" big gaurd who is a really good defender. He played at Troy, averaged 14ppg 5rpg 5apg 3 steals. He fits Jans style because of his hard nosed defense and toughness. Simillar to Cam Matthews he fills the stat sheet up and does a little bit of everything including running as a true PG but is listed as a Combo gaurd. Definitely a Jans type player

The Harlem Globetrotters needed the Washington Generals or whatever they were called. Yeah, we'll hang around, that is way SEC has treated us for decades.

You?re an idiot if you believe this would happen and especially for those reasons you listed.

Back to the original topic: seems like Tayton Connerway from Troy will be our next commit.

His constant 3 pt % decline is concerning and going to drive folks on here mad. He needs to be the "true point with great defense" next to Hubbard.
But it is interesting we're going heavy on 23 year olds so far.
Connerway - Hubbard - 3&D - 3&D - Ballard
Warren - McGhee - Jones - Post Scorer - Chol/Paymon/Davis-Fleming
Who are we looking at getting to round out the roster? I don't think Connerway - Hubbard - Jones - Murphy - Ballard is a winning starting lineup if our next and only move is to bring murphy back.

I don?t think this would happen, but I?ve brought this up before and think our administration has done an awful job of not leaning into this. It shouldn?t even be an official campaign or anything but our AD, presidents, and admin should occasionally be making those gibes and talking about how we are a Ulysses Grant presidential library while they hang nooses on James Meredith statue. Trash ass school and we don?t even lean into it.

Hubbard needs to play PG to have any chance at the NBA. Surprised we arent going after a 6'5 SG

Hubbard shot 205 more times than the next nearest player, Murphy. If we try to run the same type offense around him in the next season, it will be a repeat of the season just finished. We need to find more shooters that can score and run a balanced attack on offense.

Don't think that's likely even if he did.

Hubbard needs age cap removed in college sports. Which at the rate we're moving might just happen. Otherwise he's playing overseas.

You are not wrong that Hubb’s best chance at the league is PG, but he plays better as a SG at this level. I think this is why we are going after Melvin Council Jr and Connerway. Big guards who play the point well and can run the show so Hubb can roam and get his shot.

This is so out of touch with reality I don’t know where to start.
