Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on March 02, 2026, 11:47:02 PMSean played 9 minutes in each of the Big East Championship Tournament games as a Freshman, so I sort of disagree there.

With? He had an ORtg of 45, efg% of 20.0%, 32% to rate, didn't get to the line, only 7% assist rate in those BET tourney.

If we're giving out 2026-27 PT because of appearances in games, bring everyone back. smh

Quote from: Jockey on March 02, 2026, 04:49:21 PMJust gave my opinion.

I can't argue with your post because it is spot on. I'd bet 95% of people in this country don't even know that the guys laughed after trump insulted the little ladies.

I heard a US player say something along the lines of the music was blaring loud, we were drinking and shouting and we're not really hearing anything.

Quote from: Superfan on March 02, 2026, 10:19:27 PMI want Hamilton, Clark, Tre and SJ gone next year because 1) if I see them again they'll remind me of the misery of this year, 2) they will contribute nothing and only dilute our limited resources and 3) none of them belong on a major conference conference D1 team.

Sean played 9 minutes in each of the Big East Championship Tournament games as a Freshman, so I sort of disagree there. Sean can be a backup point guard for a good team, I just don't see why he would want to at this point.

But if a 5th year player wants to stay to play 8-10 minutes a game there would be no issue with that.

Quote from: DoctorV on March 02, 2026, 11:07:12 PMWhen the first portal addition comes.

This place will be ecstatic

This place will complain that it isn't a big enough addition. Or that it's going to be the only addition and Shaka just has yes men around him and they have a holier than though cult going on at the University.

Quote from: romey on March 02, 2026, 08:36:17 PMAgreed.  I know it's semantics, but has anyone heard Shaka say the word "portal" at all?  Like  any politician in today's world know, leave yourself an "out.>  "I never said I was going to use the portal."  :)

That being said, I personally believe he WILL use the portal for more than one player.
IF it turns out Shaka is playing "word games", I'm done with him. Jerking around fans and media is pathetic. Any coach who is reduced to wordsmithing his messaging is in the final throws of his tenure.

I seriously doubt he'd do that.

Quote from: Warrior of Law on March 02, 2026, 09:12:21 PMThis. The fact that Chase Ross and Ben Gold play as much as they do indicates how low the talent level is at this point. Here's a breakdown:

Must Keep:
James, Jr

Prefer to Keep:
Parham
Stevens
Owens

Cut to Create Space:
Sean Jones

With the Lowery and Sean Jones spots, you got 2 portal fills. If MU finds a better 3rd or 4th, then Norman and Hamilton get buzzed. MU's advantages includes an early start on the process, plenty of playing time to offer, cash, and good pipeline to the NBA.

Likely a bubble team at best if they add just 2 players.

They need 2 major impact players and probably 1 or 2 more rotational players.

Phillips- not cutting it. Maybe could in the future.
Hamilton- not cutting it. Never will cut it.
Norman- not cutting it. Never will cut it.
Clark- not cutting it. Major questions on if he ever can.
Miletic- can't rely on unproven guy.
Nash- can't rely on unproven guy.
Jones- not cutting it.
