NBA Draft????
Good for him. He'll likely be a 2nd round pick and carve out a nice career for himself. Really wish we could have held on to him.

we were giving his minutes to Hefner

Not a surprise.

Too bad to see him go but seems like he figured out he'd be behind a lot of other guards next year. IV, Manny, Jace, Wilcher, and Mills will all probably be getting playing time and you've got to reckon we'll be bringing in at least one more guard(hopefully Pope).

The portal opened March 18th, over five weeks ago, and closes May 1st , just a week away, correct?

Seems like a late entry but I still don't understand this process well.

Players have until May 1 to jump in to the portal, but there is no deadline (to my knowledge) as to when they have to sign with a new school.

It might be as simple as the staff saying- "Hey we need the space and think it would be best if you found a new home". I am not saying that happened, but we currently are recruiting players that we didnt have space for before Lindsay went into the portal

1. Taylor
2. Garcia
3. Solo
4. Manny
5. Jace
6. Dockery
7. Mills (incoming freshman)
8. Turkson (incoming freshman)
9. Wilcher (incoming portal)
10. Payne (incoming portal)
11. Coleman
12. Hefner
13. Open (we have multiple guys we are still after in the portal)

So with Lindsay departing we can add one more kid without needing to create space. If we add more then we need others to leave.

Ah, yes - and I think I've been told this before.

Dates are for portal entry only, no need to get picked up by May 1st.

I still think it would be to one's benefit to get in early as other teams start snatching up players to fit their needs.

Maybe Hefner will get that same talk….

If they add more pieces besides one more then I think #12 and #11 on my list are the most likely to go whether that's their call or not. Just a guess by me

I have a hard time seeing us push Henry Coleman out. He can definitely contribute to a high level team

Yeah, that's not happening. Seems like when he really struggled he wasn't 100% healthy. Can't imagine a scenario where he'd be pushed out.

He might decide he isn't interested in playing basketball anymore

There have been multiple events that the team attended in the past couple of weeks. Henry did not attend either. One when Wade was honored, Henry was at the baseball game instead I believe. Then last weekend Wade, Boots and Andy all were honored and everyone appeared to be there in a team photo except Lindsay, Ringgold and Coleman. Could be nothing

So Lee, Ringgold, and B White are all walk-ons?

Yes but Ringgold is in the portal anyway.

Bryce Lindsay didn't seem like he was going to contribute, regardless of the transfers who were brought in.

Looks like Pope elected to live in a more exciting town.

Hard to compete with Austin.

Our basketball NIL funds are so poor compared to Texas' NIL funds.

That's all this is.

I suspect that if Kentucky wants Oweh then they will get him.

That loss of Pope (I know...I know...the sips made it a "head to head" battle on purpose) still stings.

Really hope Buzz can pull a high-performing guard, preferably with a couple of years of eligibility left, out of his hat!

Wonder what else is out there that we are seriously interested in from a guard perspective.
