Hunter Dickinson has scheduled a couple visits, one to Maryland and one to Georgetown...also going back to Michigan for some sort of meeting...he's supposedly had some Zoom meetings with a couple other schools as well.

It is almost like the portal will get them ready to play in a professional league where there is no loyalty and lots of churn. Terrible idea. They should be forced to stay where there is stability and a 7-11 job.

Politicians thinking: "hmmm these young athletes have an awful lot of freedom and are making good money, how can we gain control over and profit off of this"
that's not how that works. its
rich business owners, in seeking profit maximization, thinking how they can profit off this system and then buying/paying/controlling politicians into enacting legislation that affords such opportunities often with the misguided belief their efforts spur business/create jobs/solve problems.

Hoping that KU can land
Dickinson...
On paper, that's a top 5 team.
with perhaps a better balance and higher upside. that said, in son? the jokes will certainly regress.

His nickname is "The Mad Professor"...I feel like that's all we really need to know.
He did also average 14 & 10 last year with almost 3 blocks per game.

Step it up tdub lol we need a scouting report. Nobody else had a clue he was visiting or who he was.
Feels like he's our plan B instead of dickinson though. But on paper both seem like very good players

Open to the highest bidder.. the new norm. If you're still in college as an upperclassmen, established yourself as an all league/all american caliber player, you pretty much have to enter the portal
If you're gonna enough to be that sought after, but still in college as an upperclassmen, it means your professional dreams are uncertain.
Cash in on the NIL money as much as you can
