Quote from: Small Orange Soda on February 19, 2026, 07:41:13 PMI haven't seen anything that makes me think his thinking about pay structure has changed in the last six weeks.

If you can't see it, it's because you're choosing not to see it, in which case, I can't help you. This whole circular argument is pointless anyways since anyone who actually has the financial information is not posting it to Scoop.

Quote from: wadesworld on February 19, 2026, 09:08:33 PMI don't even think his own parents would call him a star.

He's a nice role player for a solid team.

Damn good. An NBA talent for sure.

15 to eliminate St. John's last year as a Freshman. Followed it up with 20 against Texas Tech in the S16.

He's damn good.

Quote from: panda on February 19, 2026, 08:37:48 PMI've stated many times I have my doubts he will use it to the extent the team next year needs him to use it to be highly competitive.

I think that because of his naivety in roster construction the last couple of seasons. 

Let's just see what happens.  He essentially admitted he has made mistakes.

Quote from: Vander Blue Man Group on February 19, 2026, 08:28:59 PMExcept your response was in regard to what's going to happen next and not what happened last year or what's happened this season

Shaka has already indicated he's going to use the portal.

So you think he's lying?

Like I said, it doesn't make sense.

Quote from: panda on February 19, 2026, 08:14:19 PMLet me break it down for you -

Shaka kept a bunch of players who are not up to standard on the roster the past couple of years because of his philosophy (rgv).

When the initial crop of players graduated, we were left with players who were misevaluated and he thought they would be bigger contributors.

Because of that, we're going through an abysmal season.

Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on February 19, 2026, 08:10:40 PMKarter Knox now questionable to return this season after a meniscus repair.

My goodness. Stars dropping like flys.

Knox not at the level of Saunders, Toppin, Wilson, but he's damn good. Tough blow for Arkansas.
