I’ve got a former high school classmate acting like the three portal pickups UK has picked up is gonna bring to elite status or something. If you’ve never lived in Kentucky, you won’t understand how annoying UK fans are. Normally their basketball is good and when they have a decent football team it’s an intolerable fall and winter
It’s that basketball on grass style of play. I think Williams and Penix will both struggle with it as well. I’d have taken JJ first, Maye second and then Williams, Daniels and Nix.
Mel Kiper disagreed with Booger on that. You’d think they’d have faith in the quarterback who’s coach played in the NFL, played in a pro style offense and is a pure winner over an aged and injured quarterback that got exposed in the championship game against a good defense.
Booger doesn even know what the fuck he’s talking about! Harbaugh runs a pro style offense with reads. This ain’t basketball on grass Booger!! Penix is the biggest gamble by far.
Brooks is the only other guard that wasn’t recruited by May. Cheddar already said he’s staying so other than that it would have to be one do the two above or Jace
When Beilein left I always felt like Juwan was wise to keep at least one of John’s staff members. In this case, I’m ok with a completely clean slate considering we aren’t trying to retain key players and it’s an overhaul.
If it was that easy Juwan would still have his job because Hunter was a weapon down low as well. He also had an outside game as well. You still have to put the pieces around him and put in a plan for what they might take away from him also. What if teams pack the lane with a 2-3 zone? Painter would have to scheme around that as well. You aren’t giving opposing coaches enough credit to come up with a game plan to limit the effectiveness of the other Purdue players, knowing Edey is going to get his.
This is the one that I really want to stay in Dusty’s offense. Kid has gotten better and better and can shoot the lights out. He will be a sniper for some team if we can’t reel him back in
He’s got Cheddar and Burnett coming back at least. If he brings a couple from FAU to go along with a couple from the portal that’s already a decent core to go along with the freshmen. That’s assuming that Reed and Dug stay in the portal. Everyone except Burnett could come back the next year besides his FAU guys. Recruit a couple good ones and add another 1-2 from the portal and year two is looking even better. I just don’t see Michigan as a program that should be waiting 3-4 years to be remotely relevant.
If he’s not in the tournament by year two then Michigan made the wrong choice. He has a wide open roster to attack the portal and get what he needs. He can bring a few from FAU with him, get Rooths back in the fold and then hit the portal.
Anyone see Illinois post game locker room celebration? Underwood came in with a super soaker. Where have I seen that before? Underwood trying to be like Beilein
Id kind of like to see what they can do with some good coaching. If they aren’t gonna buy in defensively and work hard in the weight room then they can leave.
I wonder if any of the current players in the portal change their mind? Would competent coaching be good for Reed, Dug and GW3? Dug may be leaving due to academic challenges here as well? Need to get in touch with Rooths quickly as well.
Roy Williams got them to stay year in and year out prior to NIL. I’ve got a friend who is a UNC fan and I always teased him about Beilein sending 3 stars to the NBA and NC keeping 5 stars for 4 years. Izzo does it too.
How the hell does North Carolina always get kids to stay 2-3-4 years? Look at their roster, they’ve got Bacot and Davis as seniors, Ryan and Ingram as transfers. Several Sophs and Juniors. It must be nice!
The lack of information with the coaching search sucks. When Harbaugh left we had instant information knowing it was Sherrone and then started getting info on assistant candidates right away. So far, nothing is out there on coaches for basketball.
Not disagreeing but where has it improved? We haven’t landed any major players under Sherrone as head coach yet. Both Harbaugh and Warde both said it was transformational and not transactional. Remains to be seen on NIL. If football starts landing elite talent then I’ll say basketball needs to step up
Me too. I think people don’t like him here because he’s a Duke grad. What he’s done at Northwestern is remarkable. Realistically speaking, there isn’t a “can’t miss” coach out there. I think Collins is the best candidate out all the ones I’ve seen listed.

Texas with 11 picks and counting. Looks like Sarkesian didnt meet expectations based on his roster
Part of the way through the 6th and Michigan and Texas are tied at 9 picks apiece

80 picks to go to break the record and we need 7 more drafted.
Vikings with two really good picks

Still think Penix is the worst pick of the draft so far

Still could go top 10, that’s not the reason to stay home. I wish he would’ve went, especially since it’s in Detroit but that’s not JJ’s style.
I was right about their wr pick, they just drafted the wrong qb.
What the fuck is wrong with these NFL teams? Did they not watch Michigan eat Penix alive?
Don’t follow them that close. I did see where the Vikings were trying to get a quarterback, either by trade or draft so that could’ve been an option?
Looks like JJ is gonna fall to number 11 for the Vikings. 11 is my favorite number though so there is that.
Should’ve taken JJ
Would be epic. Worst case scenario JJ learns from Herbert for a few years before taking over. If not, they trade Herbert and he starts right away
Patriots should’ve went with the Michigan Man
JJ is not the 4th best quarterback out there, he’s the best and it will show in the long run.
I think he’s benefitted from playing shit defenses. He’s got talent but he’s been playing 7 on 7 style in college.
Caleb Williams played in a basketball on grass conference with limited defense. JJ all day!
Who you think will be better, MHJ or Odunze?
I don’t understand the issue with Wolf? He’s coming from Yale! We’ve already announced everyone else.
Brooks is the only other guard that wasn’t recruited by May. Cheddar already said he’s staying so other than that it would have to be one do the two above or Jace
Hey, at least they have basketb…oh wait, nevermind, they don’t live up to expectations there either.
Wonder who gets the next commitment, May or Moore?

Better talent, yes. Better coach? I don’t agree there. Painter gets a lot out of the level of talent he recruits.
Purdue going to be the next Virginia where they lose to a 16 seed one year and win the national championship the next?
How does a 6’9 275 lb guy have one rebound?
I’ve read where he’s grown to 6’1. I’ll take that bet with you that he will be a good shooter on whatever team he plays on.

Oakland is coached really well. I miss that!
That’s a rep he got about 20 years ago and the talking heads won’t let it go.

Izzo is such a douche! Cuts it to 15 and calls a timeout like it’s a teaching moment early in the year.
Izzo is gonna resort to fouling with 3:25 left down 16?

Juwan jinxed the team
Our wide receiver core consists of Morgan, Moore, Morris and two freshmen. Is this Bellamy’s fault?

Ironic because Izzo IS the little guy
I’d take Beilein or a part 2 in a heartbeat. Best overall basketball times of my life.
