I just looked up Yaxel's college career, and evidently his first year in college was 2020-2021 at Arizona Western. This was his sixth year in college, in a sport where a very large number of players who turn pro do so after their first year in college.

You can add Sanogo to that short list. There aren't a lot of these guys out there and when they do appear there is quite a bit of competition for them.

I'm amazed at how quickly so many have forgotten about that team. I posted this elsewhere, but I believe that in the four year stretch that just ended 24 & 23 UConn were one and two for best teams and 24 Purdue was #3. It was terrible timing, fortune, however you care to label it that they...

I don’t fully agree. The B1G didn't want to do a full western expansion in one move, but the catastrophic handling of the Pac's media negotiations destroyed that conference. I truly believe that the B1G's long term plan was to have a 24 member conference with four six school divisions, but the...

I'm wondering if we should consider a post season hanging. I can recommend the perfect candidate.

He gave the school, the program and the fan base far more than ever could have been asked of anyone. I know I will miss him.

Yes. I'd do it if it was in a better location than Detroit.

In all candor I believe it will be closer to 2040 than it will be to 2035 when Danny calls it quits. The only place for him to go from here would be the NBA, but I believe that the more time passes, the more he will realize that he isn't cut out to be an NBA coach. He did not long ago state...

Tom, Please keep reposting until he gets to 7'4".

Val (the conference as a whole in fact) isn't going to do anything for us. They have no reason to be nice to us because they know that no matter how nice they are, we're taking the first bus out of town the minute second an offer from a P level conference arrives. The biggest favor the...

I've experienced every ncaa tournament loss since Corny's freshman year (1979, listened on radio). This one sucked the least.

A few thoughts/comments: I hope the bulk of our fan base appreciates how truly special the past four years have been. We can have great success over the next few decades and not see this again. I don’t want to hear anyone on this board criticize any of our players. They left it all on the...

Way to take one for the team Fishy!

We lose this guy after tonight, win or lose, so we may as well win the damned thing.
