Not going to Spain anymore. Spain was put on the “Do Not Travel” list by the State Department due to a spike in Covid cases among people under 23. That sucks for Harris because Larry Brown was originally supposed to be the head coach for the team too.
@BigBad not even the same universe, let alone ballbark $ wise. But yes, high schools are factories and or farm systems too. However, they are minors. Once a kid is of age and someone is making millions off of him or her, that adult deserves to make a few bucks too.

Big time ballers, Big time games. - -Devonte & Ben leading the way with two games each. Surprised with LaGerald - didn’t remember that one. - Some really good players have past through and been really lucky to see them do their thing. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
The Lagerald Vick game was Louisiana, not Louisville.
my bad buddy. bad at abbv’s - -thought that was high for a game from him against someone like Louisville
The one thing that I would recommend for any player or athlete? Keep your grades in check, and take advantage of your opportunities… But later, when it is time, go back and get your degree.
@Texas-Hawk-10 I wasn’t referring to U.S. history, which I know more than my share of. I am talking about free people having the ability to make money, any money.
I think that our starting 5 would be: Remy, Braun, Obaji, Wilson, Dave
Key Subs for Guards: Yesufu, Jalen Coleman, Harris - Bigs: Lightfoot, KJ, Cam
What is the role of other players?
Any redshirt candidates?
Who will be most disappointed with PT?

@FarmerJayhawk said in Around the Big 12:
Was researching landing spots for Carr and with all the KU stuff that’s happened over the last few months I glossed over how loaded Texas is. Disu and Mitchell are both really good. Bishop solid depth piece. Ramey back. Timmy Allen was first team all-PAC last year as a wing. Potentially adding Carr. Just being honest, but if they get him I think they’re better than us and right there with Gonzaga.
Went on Kentucky boards. The y ( the fans ) there aren’t really giving much hope there or really to concerned either , as they feel they are pretty deep at that position and with Mintz coming back just adds more depth. Not knocking Carr by any means they just saying they really don’t feel the need - -I would have to agree with them on that , the have enough guys for that spot quality. - -Basically so thinks then it comes down to KU - Louisville - - & Texas - -basically we are on the outside looking in on this - - I think dammit Beard get’s this one too. - -He is becoming a real pain in the ass.
Good, I hope Beard makes Texas a consistent national title contender and Drew keeps Baylor at an elite level. The more top tier title contenders in the Big 12, the better for Kansas. Hell, Duke has won two national titles since the last time they won a regular season ACC title because that league is so damn top heavy most years.
@drgnslayr Nice , only thing is -he gonna meet ALOT stronger resistance when he tries driving to the hole then what we see on here. He gonna be allright
@Crimsonorblue22 said in TCU /probation from FBI case:
Townsend didn’t take money
but they have him on recording talking about what it or do whatever it took - -make no mistake about it we are not clean in this whole thing. - -Also make no mistake if anyone thinks we are walking out of this whole mess without getting hit with anything - -then you need to step back from the pipe and slowly back away
Saw this and decided to throw some things/thoughts out : - -Considering Oachi - - Jalen - -& Remy :
First Jalen. After reading Jalen’s performance at the G-League elite camp - -don’t really wow. Started one game - -came of the bench the other , think he scored a total of 10 points , 6 assists , 5-13 overall shooting & like 0-4 from the 3. - -Anyways they mentioned just didn’t stand out enough for an invite to the NBA Combine. - -Having heard this and seeing he didn’t get that invite - - just me - - -makes me feel a lot more liking the chances of Jalen returning for another year.
Next Remy . Remy didn’t get an invite to the NBA camp OR the G league elite camp. - -I would think that should pretty much say it all .Like Matt stated after someone had ask if he had heard anything on Remy he said been pretty quiet nothing. - Which he said with him not getting invited to either the NBA OR the G league camp and how highly Remy talked about playing for KU - -Matt thinks & I also have to think the chances for Remy being here look really really good you would think.
Then Finally Ochai : well there are several things that are included they say as
to whether a kid fits the mold for an NBA player . With the medical and measurements and such. So the measurements have been very favorable for Ochai to stay in the draft and help him fit that mold.
Ochai had the 5th longest wingspan among guards - - - - He was 3rd in the Standing reach - - - his hand length was tied for the largest - - - and had the 3rd lowest body fat of ALL the players in the NBA Combine. - ESPN NBA Draft man read so they say is suppose to be as good as they get at predicting where a player gets drafted as anyone Pick Oachi as the 59th pick out of 60 - So THAT might give him something to think about. - -If he goes that low - -might make him think about coming back - - -I think He stays in.
If we get Remy back - -Jalen back - -we are going to be a very tough out ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
