Only Skaljac remains (for now).

YEESSSSS

We'll likely find out today or tomorrow.

Burn it all down, Kenni! We're rooting for you!

If we can find a way to achieve this while increasing the size of our backcourt, look out.

Happy Easter!

Sharron's official statement.

LeBron said the same thing lol. Are you on LBJ's payroll?

Not sure where to put this, but here seems semi pertinent.

The Wentz model isn't about gear being sold from what I can tell. It's about long-term financial security and being rewarded for sticking around the program.

This is where the FTRC/Wentz model becomes so important. It honors the true nature of NIL and long term wealth management.

Maybe this forces reciprocity as the solution, but I'm not seeing a willingness by the suits to put logical, common sense restrictions on the current system. Who knows how this holds up in court or what it results in, but at least it's an action in the right direction.

Interesting connection. Love that there's familiarity.

He had a winning record as Concord's HC in 10 seasons or so, and they've been on our schedule at least a couple times. I like the hire and like you said, bringing someone in that knows the D2 level could be advantageous in finding undervalued talent.

Help is on the way?

Looks like Josh Henderson is staying. He reposted a Dustin Ford tweet and also just followed me on X.

Hate these types of takes. Go look at the first page of this thread. The MAC is being DECIMATED by the Portal. Who knows who comes back eventually, but at the moment, Miami OH is the favorite and then it's a bunch - A BUNCH - of question marks. The only returning players so far from the All MAC First, Second, & Teams are Elmer and Skaljac. Trust in Ford and Wentz.

With the announcements from Young and Mahaffey, here is what we're looking at... Graduated Amani Lyles Shammah Scott Evan Mahaffey Tavari Johnson Portal Eric Mahaffey Sharron Young Returning (for now) Chabi Barre (6'10" F; R-Jr) Rich Brisco (6'8" F; R-Fr) Ognjen Stankovic (6'8" W; Fr) Josh Henderson (6'5" G; R-Fr) Marvin Musiime-Kamali (6'6" W; R-So) Zach Halligan (6'5" W; R-So) Cody Head (6'3" G; R-Jr) Bowen Hardman (6'3" G; Sr) Tai Perkins (6' G; R-Fr) HS Incoming Devan Christion (6'9" F) RJ Jones (6'4" G) Jashawn Ladd (6'4" G) Some thoughts... 1) It'll be interesting to see if any of the HS commits de-commit, which would be risky for them in the NIL/Open Portal landscape 2) In terms of maintaining the culture, Halligan and MMK are the most important. They've each been here ~3 years, they know the expected effort, they've seen what the program can do for players, and they seem to be great teammates. 3) What's currently remaining is actually quite respectable. There are several question marks of course (skill, experience, etc.) but that's pretty good size - especially in the backcourt - with several scholarships to offer still.

Got my hat today. Very high quality and comfortable. Looks nice.

After seeing the video, this is the least shocking result.

Bingo. There's so much focus on the money that's spent, but the actual issues occur with the free movement and lack of compensation for schools that have their players plucked. Until someone with the power has the moral cajones to put aside personal financial gain and fix the fundamental flaws with the transfer portal, the money will continue to be spent at absurd rates. However, that rarely translates to any sort of guarantees. The Guardians have the lowest payroll in baseball and just took 2/3 from the Billionaire Dodgers - the actual Billionaire Dodgers, not just what Senderoff sees in his nightmares. System, culture, and coaching are the most important components. Always have been, always will be.

Depends on who the coach is.
