Not that I know all the math, but this always seemed like the smart decision. Put off the dream one year and play your way into the first round. Happy for him.

And it works out pretty well for me, too.

I have no idea how we get guys playing time this year. We are loaded at the 3/4. Someone probably should have transferred.
Starters : Mahaney, Diarra , Mcneeley, Karaban, Reed

Bench Guards : Solo Ball, Nowell,
Bench forwards: Stewart, Abraham
Bench Big: Samson

Yeah minutes are tight but the team is friggin stacked. Sounds like "one of them good problems" to quote marlo stanfield

Depending on draft decisions of course, but it looks like there’s going to be a lot of good teams next year. This year it was just UConn, Purdue and Houston that looked elite. Kansas, Iowa State, Baylor, Houston, Duke, UConn, Gonzaga and Alabama all look poised to have fantastic teams. Karaban puts us in the top half of that group.
Revisionist history. Kansas, Duke, Baylor, NC, people were talking many more than 3 teams this year. We made all that talk stop, but it was more than just 3 teams.

Can put Karaban in sharpie at the 4, but the rest of the camp battles are going to be crazy to watch

Diarra/Mahaney/Ball fighting for the 2 guard spots. Mahaney will start, just TBD which spot he's at, and Nowell could even force his way into that battle too

Stewart/McNeeley for the 3 spot

Samson/Reed for the 5 spot

This team is gonna be deep, that's a legit 9 man rotation right there with a compelling case to start for basically everyone

NIL is making college basketball pretty awesome. 10 years ago, a couple of dozen of these second round/borderline draft picks would have headed overseas. Now they are getting paid to produce in college.

Alex wants to become one of the very few players in college basketball history with 3 title rings. Kareem. Walton, Laetner all had 2. No one has won 4.

Hurley knew this all along. He may face some push back by the McNeeley camp but he will figure it out. Now the team has the floor leadership it needs heading into a 3 quest season. Maybe AK can be slotted in the 2 or 3 spots where he can work on his handle and 3 pt shooting???
