Omax declares

[brewcity77]

Which is a bummer, but I don't see a lot of players mentioned with us that could easily slide into that wing spot.

Hopefully, Omax returns.  I think he will.

I also think he will, but this staff is good about not letting their inquiries get out to the public. Just because we don't show up on a list doesn't mean we aren't involved.

You mean our savvy scoop social media interpreters can not accurately tell us exactly who Marquette is involved with or judge the fervor of which Marquette is pursuing portal possibilities?

Shaka and staff are busy collecting silent verbals.  👀

Omax gowne, hey?

[brewcity77]

Deadline to declare is tonight. So if Oso, TK, or anyone else want to join O-Max this year, tonight is their last chance to do it.

Why did you have to tempt them? Sheesh!

Isn't this place more fun when everyone is panicked? All this hanging banners and retaining talent makes for a boring summer.

[The Sultan]

Your reading comprehension is absurdly poor. One can appreciate the fantastic job Shaka and the team did this past year without pretending there is no possible way the roster could be enhanced. It is possible to have some critical self-evaluation in the off-season.

Next year, I don't want to have Oso be preoccupied battling Joel Soriano down low, and Clingan will abuse us again. If we had a guy even like Dwight Burke to pull off the bench and give us 10-20 minutes a game, I think it would help. There is no reason Shaka can't find that type of player who is the right culture fit. There are 1000+ kids portaling.

I don't disagree with you, but don't think it is in anyway as easy as you suggest.

[Farley36]

After 17-3 plus the BET, I can't believe anyone is questioning Shaka's roster construction.

You're either getting better or you're getting worse.

[MuMark]

You're either getting better or you're getting worse.

Last year when we lost Lewis, Morsell and Kur and replaced all of them with  Wrightsil and 3 freshmen everybody assumed we were getting worse........oops.

Omax gowne, hey?

I wish you were gowne, hey!!!!

Eye'm gonna stay just ta piss ewe off, hey?

That's fine, I've put up with you for this long.  Just try to be positive once in awhile.

[4everwarriors]

Truthfully, in this case, I honestly think he leaves. There are several paths to the Association and as long as one team feels you have potential, they will throw money at you and that's all it takes, hey?

I think that would shock the staff.

Could you try and post more coherent/measured takes like this? Would really be a nice change.

Barring an announcement in the next 78 minutes, does that mean Oso is for sure coming back?

They don't have to make an announcement.  An official list should come out tomorrow

Emoni Bates declared before the deadline.

A precautionary tale about assuming greatness for anointed HS stars, parental interference, and several other ills associated with the less glamorous side of competitive hoops.

I have a wild take, but the team that drafts him in the 50's of the NBA draft will actually get a steal. It is basically the same thing as drafting Cam Reddish, but they don't have to waste the 10th overall pick. You just draft someone because they were the "best" one summer in high school.

Last year, the NBA released it the Tuesday after the deadline. We'll probably see it later today or tomorrow.

List, do you mean the 2023 roster?
