Couple more things:

1. Really like Kam referring to himself as K1. A great nickname that should stick.

2. With K1 being the only proven scorer returning, I'm looking forward to seeing how Shaka walks the line between giving him the ultimate green light while also encouraging him to be the great teammate he always has been.

Should have been All Big East this year. Still can't believe that he wasn't.
He started slowly, shooting poorly from 3.   Remember the January teamwide shooting slump?  Then he rolled his ankle.  So, the first third of the season was not all league worthy.   He finished great.

Kam struggled in the middle third of the season, but was great in the first and final thirds.

This is great stuff.

I am one who thinks Kam has an NBA career ahead of him, but I also believe he'll benefit from being THE man and getting to play more PG. He apparently agrees.

I'm already psyched about seeing how good next year's team can be.

I meant conference season, but since I did not actually type it, I acknowledge that I was wrong.

I look forward to seeing
 his continued growth and development.


As an aside, dodds was at the banquet last night and seated with Zaide.   Zaide was talking about how they were all back in the weight room already.

If there was one thing that was going to drive an MU player away, it'd be having to sit at a table with Dodds for dinner.

Can't wait to see Kam next year. Ought to be favorite for Big East Player of the Year.

Does seem strange that we didn't hear from Jop at the same time, given how close they've been during their time at MU...

Trey Alexander, Kadary Richmond, Ryan Kalkbrenner, and Eric Dixon (I'm excluding Clingan because he's a top 10 pick, so I'm assuming he's gowne) were all on All Big East First, Second, or HM teams and (as far as I've seen) haven't announced they are leaving.

Desmond Claude could certainly be up there too.

Great news. Kam showed a lot down the stretch when Tyler was out. Excited to see the next level he can reach in his game.

My understanding is that Kam will seek special dispensation from the NCAA to play an extra year at Memphis in 2025-26, on the basis of finally being able to return home and securing some sweet NIL cash.

Kam should see some pre-season All American accolades. Makes me wonder, has MU ever had preseason All American recipients in back-to-back seasons by different players?

I should have clarified - back to the top 10 team!

That'd be cool.  First let's start with All Big East awards... for which he was unjustly snubbed from all lists.

Looking forward to seeing the team play next year.
With Kam, Stevie, Joplin, Gold, Chase, Sean, Tre, Zaide, Amadou and new players, this team will be a very fun team to watch.

Jop has to wait for Jonah to declare intentions next
