    Trey Townsend To Arizona

    Did his job last March. No hard feelings. :D

    Quaintance Asking Price?

    I'd be cautious in believing everything we read about these recruits. Maybe he has no interest in playing for Pope or living in Ark for a few years. We really don't know. I am sure he's looking for a good deal just like every other player is, but it's highly possible butthurt fans of UK...

    Arkansas No Longer In With Quaintance

    Payne Was Dealt A Bad Hand At UofL

    He thinks the approach is a good one to apply, player centric, probably because he witnessed a title and a few other deep March runs. That, and he's a former player and he values the player on a more personal level maybe. What he doesn't habla is that approach ran into a wall even with the...

    Payne Was Dealt A Bad Hand At UofL

    Yeah, again the reference is not to an entire body of work of one of the GOATs. It's about roster assembly during the OAD era and how only two programs went about it in that mostly all-in on 5* & OADs. We are talking about Payne's lack of qualifications for this job, or even a good mid-major...

    Payne Was Dealt A Bad Hand At UofL

    Almost nothing is exactly alike. It's about the philosophy/method of mostly stacking OAD 5* guys and overwhelming opponents. UK and Duke were doing that, no other programs were. Cal from the beginning K co-opted it and did it better yeah. The strategy was uncommon and there's not enough 5*...

    Curtis Williams To Georgetown

    Probably a good landing spot for him. They lost a few to the portal that played big minutes, Styles and Brumbaugh. They are actually doing okay in the portal they got Malik Mack who was a coveted player in the Ivy League his FR year, and Peavy from TCU.

    Hailey Van Lith To TCU

    I just don't think there's much left for fans. All the changes have put the game in an unrecognizable place and it's never going to be how it used to be. That player/fan bond is only going to lessen moving forward. A lot of people were hoping Women's hoops could remain pure but it's not...

    Payne Was Dealt A Bad Hand At UofL

    He's just a bad fit for a HC job @ this level. He wasn't learning anything on the job or trying to learn either. He thinks his approach was appropriate and he thought he was doing a good job. Nothing he observed all those years was all that relevant to a standard HC job at this level...

    Fed Ex Helping Memphis

    It's going to be real interesting to see how all this looks in 5 years, or even 10-15 years.

    BB RECRUITING: Transfer Portal: Players UofL Has Contacted

    Louisville, Arky, UK, and even Wash St lost their entire teams to the portal or something else after their coaching changes. Will be kind of interesting to see how they all do with the rebuilds.

    Payne to Arkansas

    There's been a divide for a long time and it was hoped hiring Payne was going to help bridge that at the least and maybe even fix it if he was a success. Feels like it's even worse now. It's as if some of them hate the fans and the school, and have for a long time. I don't expect too much...

    Oumar Ballo To IU

    Taking a guess IU has some serious NIL $ to throw around. I believe they have pulled Rice from WSU, another key player from Stanford, and now this dude who is probably the top guy in the portal. Last year they hit the jackpot too, but as pointed out above the question is, can they win games?

    BB RECRUITING: J'vonne Hadley Commits To UofL

    He's a tough defender. Gets after it on that end. P6 experience CO had a good team last year to the R32 close loss to Marquette, he was a key player there. This is a nice pickup.

    DJ Wagner In Portal

    Promises made, promises kept.

    JJ Traynor To DePaul

    I think with DePaul he has a clear path to minutes and maybe shots too. They could offer him more NIL and/or a more primary role than the role he'd have here. Fresh start too. I'd be happy if he returned also but unsure of the fit.

    BB RECRUITING: Scheduled Player Visits

    Muss @ USC would be a legit threat. If PK beats out Muss for a transfer that would be a good get.
