Kansas senior David McCormack not leaning either way as he awaits feedback to make stay-or-go decision
-
-
He gone
-
Dave Mccormack, KU legend. As Mark Jackson used to say, “mama there goes that man”
-
He stays!
-
@Jethro nope
-
I want whatever is best for Dave. Its hard to say what that is.
-
Only reason for him to stay is to work on the 3pt game. If he can shoot 35-40% or better from 3 for the year (which, of course would require that Bill allow him to do that) then he could raise his stock with the NBA. 6-10 + dudes that can shoot 3s and are also skilled in the paint (jump hooks, short jumpers, etc.) are valuable in the league.
-
@bskeet maybe with legit tall guys coming in Dave could play the 4?
-
@approxinfinity lol stop
Remember when we actually tried that and it was an unmitigated disaster?
-
@BShark yeah but… yeah….

Another reason to stay may be to prove his foot has finally healed up. Having a bad wheel on a big guy should be a big red flag to any NBA team I would think. He managed to survive a college season on it but how about an NBA marathon?
-
@Kubie I don’t think he ever logs an NBA minute. He was still laboring in the FF games but really gutted it out with an amazing leave it all out there performance.
-
@BShark agree there, I just don’t see Dave as an NBA guy. I would love for him to prove me wrong but at this point I can’t see him getting that chance. Heck, I could see Mitch getting a look someplace as a potential stretch 4 before Dave does at the 5.
-
Wherever BD goes they’re gonna want to check that foot out! I wish he could play in the nba, he pretty much showed everyone up in the tourney. . I don’t think he’s coming back, Self said he could finish his masters online. Thought that was a good hint. I want the best for him, he deserves it, he worked hard. He never gave up, Self knew we had to have him to succeed even if our fans didn’t!
-
@BShark when u saying laboring, u mean getting up and down the court or just putting the ball in the bucket?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 You could just see that his foot was hurting him if you pay really close attention. I noticed more while rewatching the games which I like to do to try and catch more things, Self’s coaching decisions etc… Harder for me to notice live when I’m caught up in the game.
-
@BShark he said his foot wasn’t bothering him. I have always been amazed, hurt foot and all how fast he runs the floor. He was a plus 16, other guy a 1. I do know his faults, but for a big, he can run the floor.
