Dent is our guy. I can feel it in my bones

 

[sdglast]

Dent is our guy. I can feel it in my bones

I could see him at St. Johns as well unfortunately.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

I don't love the Pitino as c-block angle.

 

[CTBasketball]

Will follow Pitino to Villanova.

 

[navery12]

Will follow Pitino to Villanova.

Unfortunately I agree. Have to hope Pitino stays at New Mexico for another year

Start the lemonade stand and selling Girl Scout cookies, we’re going to need deep pockets for this one.

 

[UConnTrumbull]

Yeah, well UConn has their own girl boss billionaire.

Is she a big donor? Had never heard of her til now.

 

[husky429]

Will follow Pitino to Villanova.

Let me have my moment

Why would he? Nova was paying Neptune $4.4 million per year and Neptune had zero track record. If Nova offers he's running to Philly with his star player and a boatload of NIL to work with.

Curious to know why a player would simply follow a coach rather than test the market. If you're going to transfer and are hitting the portal, why not at least test your market value?

Can he play defense? Would like to see any new addition in the backcourt be a good defender.

He wouldn't, but I want Donovan Dent

 

[JungleLobo]

Romogoglue wants to come back and play the point. He’s been working on his shot and hitting leg days hard.

Because Villanova has one of the best NIL packages in the country

So? We have over 1 million dollars for a pg. and UConn and Hurley is better option to get to the league than what Nova will offer

In some cases, players may really value the relationship and investment with their coach. Especially if they have NBA potential futures.

Not sure if that’s the case as much with Dent, but yeah.

I agree, I'm just answering why he'd follow his coach to Villanova

 

[AntG168]

If we bring in Dent our 3 and four have to be really big and really good on defense.

Give me Dent, Bol Bowen, a jumbo wing and a back up pg/cg preferably 6’5ish

Sometimes they do. But often they can test and coach can get new school to match the offers. Tiebreak goes to keeping same system and coach.

Is she a big donor? Had never heard of her til now.

UConn announced she gave the largest athletic donation in school history back in '22.

I never heard of her before then and all the press for her seemed to really kick off when she made that donation and honestly my bs meter went off. You can count the # of black female billionaires on one hand and they're extremely well known so I've always been skeptical about this billionaire claim but her donation must've went through so she must have serious money.

Dr. Trisha Bailey is the richest Jamaican-born woman. She overcame a lot to get here.

Dr. Trisha Bailey, the first Jamaican billionaire, says being a mom is her greatest joy. She hopes her story, in her memoir "Unbroken," helps others.

Hurley had lots of glowing things to say about Nowell before he hit campus too.

Lets be fair, nowell was hurt several times this year.

 

[Fan1978]

We need transparency. Programs should be forced to post Nil offered to player and Nil actually received by player. People,
Including players, will be shocked.

Why, is your salary and bonus posted?

 

[SubbaBub]

Every year will be a mix of freshmen, transfers and returnees. The mix will depend on the age, development, and confidence of the returning players.

 

[FreeKlaiber]

Based on what we’ve seen with past freshman here, I seriously doubt Furphy will be in the rotation.

I wouldn’t even be surprised if Adams isn’t a big part of the rotation. Realistically, I only see Mullins and Reibe getting solid minutes next year and that’s if we don’t recruit over neither in the portal.

I think Furphy is gonna be in the rotation and perhaps the top freshman. Really. I'm all in on bbiq and toughness

I agree with you on Adams. Both he and Reibe are gonna need some more strength to thrive in the Big east
