Billy Hustle



  • Respect on this sick Spring/Summer recovery.



  • Yea, I’m pretty stoked. I usually don’t prowl the boards here much til fall, but ol Bill ‘damncanIrecruitforaNonNikeschool’ really outdid himself this time coming off a challenging year. Now if everyone can stay healthy and play nice we will kick some serious azz



  • Suddenly we have one of the most fun minutes/rotation discussions available to us in awhile.



  • Team 1 : Dotson, Moss, Ochai, Silvio, Doke.

    Team 2 : Marcus, McBride, JW, Mitch or Enaruna, Big Dave. Slip Braun in to the 2 or the 3 off the bench.

    Both teams would make the NCAA tournament. 1 would be a 1 seed, the other would be a top 5 seed. It’s too bad we couldn’t have a JV team, and have them play Wichita St and Missourah.



  • This might be my favorite roster in quite some time. Bill Self should bask in its glory. He deserves it.

    And the incessant stench of presumed OADs and that drama/entitlement nowhere to be found.

    See how fun this is? We can really survive with no presumed OADs.

    Now, if we go 20-14, finish 4th in the Big 12, and we just aren’t very good, I’ll gladly reconsider the position I’ve droned on about.



  • @HighEliteMajor I know I’m repeating myself here but… My favorite thing about the incoming recruiting class is zero handlers. Of course our top two post players are handler kids, but I wouldn’t mind seeing going away from it in the future.

    I also think it’s pretty fortunate we still have Silvio and Doke, but it is important to note that while high ranked neither was expected to be OAD. I think originally both were expected to be 2 years with the potential of staying longer. Obviously things worked out. I’d rather have Dot and Doke than any 5* presumed OAD that we might have instead.

    I think we are headed for 30+ wins this season.

    Well said. Unlike last season, I have a feeling about this team. Didn’t feel it last year.
