    He’s a 6’7 point guard with a ton of potential. I don’t think he compares to phoenix

    Love Dietrich has a prospect. He’s extremely skinny but is very good.

    That’s why I can see James being one of the guys they bring in. He has 4 years of eligibility left and most likely wouldn’t play. He would be a project for Jamo to develop. If Short and Meyer both want to commit I wouldn’t mind that.

    Rose and Anthony are a whole different level of player. Also look at college basketball now it’s dominated by older players.

    Well Leonhard wasnt there on game day. A big part of the problem is the defense is very predictable and teams figured it out. Walter’s also struggled this year.

    Losing Buh and Leonhard hurts. Two guys with a ton of experience to help Ahen. Let’s hope we can add atleast 1 analyst that like that. Personally I was hoping for Cooks or Conklin, a veteran coach that would come in and coach safeties. Regardless I trust Brett
