Jesus, this has been quite the 48 hours.  IMO clearly someone will be leaving who hasn't left yet.

[Tha Hound]

So gotta think most if not all wojo guys outside the big 3 will be leaving, right?

[MuggsyB]

Wow, just Wow!!

[The Sultan]

I don't know anything, but I would be extremely surprised to see Jose Perez on the team next year.  I just don't think he fits what Shaka wants to do.

Has to be at least 2 right?

Jesus, this has been quite the 48 hours.

"OK Shaka, you've had more than your fill. Time to shut it down"

Well someone has to go and from everything I've seen we are still after Bates.

Here's his Clemson bio (with stats).

Maybe Dawson ain't coming back

This is just bananas!

Top 106 recruit in 2020...

https://247sports.com/Player/Olivier-Maxence-Prosper-46084339/

Hybrid forward with good size and length. Tremendous physical tools; plus athlete both laterally and vertically. Consistent competitor on both sides of the court. Versatile defender that can easily guard two through four. More of a shot maker than a shooter but has range to the perimeter. Handle could improve but has body control/athleticism that make him tough to contain as slasher. Could become more willing passer/better shot selection while cleaning up stroke. Projects as high major starter with easy NBA upside.

They don't know the answer to that yet, but OMP isn't coming based on the idea of Garcia leaving.

[MuggsyB]

Can he handle the rock at 6'8?  He's listed as a guard?

Agreed.  My gut feeling is he, Akanno, and probably Elliott are not coming back. 

[MUMonster03]

That leaves Greg, Perez, Akanno, or Oso as being out.

Good luck with the scholarship table, Glow.

How will we ever survive a coaching change?

That may be my new favorite Scoop meme...

I like this paragraph.  6'8 athletes often work out very well.  Who was that guy on Tex Tech that transferred from St. J a few years ago?

[MarquetteMike1977]

Awesome News Welcome!!

[MUMonster03]

5 adds in less than two days is insane!
