Can he help us win games tho? That's all I give a shit about. Can he buy into the team concept and play winning basketball

[TDub]

what's your standard order at Buffalo wild wings? you go with flavors or just standard buffalo sauce? Breaded or naked? side of fried pickles?

[hoopla]

why are we worried about transcripts, we're paying these guys?

[pdub]

Right.
Transcripts should not matter now.

[ousdahl]

Guess I’ll just ask here

And I’m not advocating for this, or saying we or anyone else should do this, but…

Has any program tried building a roster with a strategy of 100% portal pieces, and not even bother with recruiting high school kids?

If not already, seems like just a matter of time til someone does, right?

[TDub]

that's essentially what Arkansas and UK are both doing this season out if necessity. They each had/have 1 returning players

You lost me when you mentioned BWW

well yea..it was just s reference to pdubs standard BWW fans that have no allegiance to anything other than highlights and "cool" trends. That's what randy sounds like when he says things like "yea but can they win games, that's the only thing I give a shit about" comments.

[pdub]

randy got kicked out of wing night with BWW Chad for talking politics.

Matchups are set for the 2024 Big East-Big 12 Battle, per multiple sources.

Baylor at UConn
Kansas at Creighton
Butler at Houston
Marquette at Iowa St
Kansas St at SJU
Xavier at TCU
Cincy at Nova
BYU at PC
Ok St at SHU
Gtown at WVU
DePaul at TTU

No return game @UConn but nice to have KU here in Omaha. Gonna try to hustle some tickets for sure.

[DeletedUser]

That sucks.

Wonder if UConn is also going to be in that Vegas NIL tournament and that's why we don't want to schedule them in the big12/bigEast challenge.

[pdub]

If Karaban from UConn stays in the draft Creighton could actually end up being a better team than UConn next season.

Fair....but Creighton isn't UConn. I'd much rather play UConn. Defending champs. 2 best coaches in CBB. 2 of the top programs in CBB.

...even if Creighton is ranked a few spots higher at the time of the matchup.

look up the word "mehblahboring" in the dictionary. you will find a picture of creighton basketball.

[TDub]

Creighton is actually pretty fun basketball to watch the last few years

I am not sure if it was an intended strategy to strictly use the portal for recruiting but Indiana University comes to mind.

After their initial only verbally committed recruit for the 24-25 season Liam Mcneeley de-committed, the portal was basically their only choice.

Now a month later it seems (on paper) to have worked well for them. signed Ballo, Carlyle and Rice.

Also picked up Bryson Tucker to give them another “try ” at a HS recruit lol.

JFC, 4 of the 5 top teams are from the Big 12. Houston, Kansas, Iowa State and Baylor will all be elite next season.

Yeah, I can see how an average of 80 points and 10 made threes a game would be boring to some...

twocoach loves him some Bluejays
