Quote from: JWags85 on February 05, 2026, 03:56:03 PMOh he's thrilled.  Added buys at $55K and $50,500 in case it truly gets hairy.  His overall basis is in the high 20s, so he's just stacking at this point.

I know nothing, but if it doesn't stabilize around $50k, I think it is going to flirt with $20k. Then the question is at what price does it collapse?

Without being asked about Nash.........

Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on February 05, 2026, 08:29:10 PMShaka committing to bad players is what has him in this situation. To continue to commit to those bad players when your former targets (some of which are actually good) become available a second time, is just stupid.

If you think he will re-recruit a guy like Oswin that has turned him down once before, then I don't think we are watching and listening to the same coach.

Well in the case you keep referencing we'd be even worse right now if he had brought the transfer in.  Nigel never wouldve gotten the opportunity he's had this year.

If someone like Oswin wanted to come here, Shaka would certainly look into it.

Quote from: bananahammock on February 05, 2026, 08:35:59 PMIf Shaka goes portaling, more likely he'll grab someone he already has formed a relationship with.

Exactly. GE makes up wild things in his head like Shaka is a "grudge guy." Weird stuff.

If Shaka goes portaling, more likely he'll grab someone he already has formed a relationship with.

Quote from: wadesworld on February 05, 2026, 08:16:06 PMSo it had nothing to do with holding a grudge and everything to do with being committed to the players in the program. Huh.
