He could end up like Mike Daum who came back for senior season and ended playing Euro ball.

Y3K will probably crash everything by then.

Hello and goodbye to Bryce, a not unexpected subtraction from our roster. Now to start building for next year. I enjoyed watching him develop but am not sure having 5-star recruits with all their baggage is the best way to insure a successful program, even for Calipari, now. It seems that recruiting a bunch of jigsaw-piece players with various talents and aspirations and then fitting them together into a team is the best way to proceed. The top coaches have the knack of appreciating what the puzzle will look like before the season begins.

Is it safe to say the Big Ten is always overrated by NCAA choosing time? Last NCAA title was two decades ago. (doesn't make any difference if you count Maryland in 2002 who was ACC at that time or Michigan State in 2000).

I can't believe Teddy is still listed as a junior. Will this thread persist for another year?

I am looking forward to the next game with great anticipation. Will anyone on this board be rooting against the Jayhawks?

No NCAA updates-watching the games will be enough. Teddy Buckets put on quite a show (good and bad) for the Aggies last night.

Both players would be perfectly cromulent additions to next year's roster and contribute much like Drake Beranek did in 2011. We would still need a true point guard and a power forward unless Walker decides to play another year here.

Anyone know what the monetary difference between a top twenty player and one who is in the top thirty means? If Bryce continues to improve and refine his game with another year in college, would it be worth the wait?

Huskerfever: Thanks again for all the work you put in on this. It has become a "soften the blow" stable. Hopefully, one of us can surpass KenPom next year. At least I was able to vault into the top ten with my final push.

Most arbitrary "rule" in college basketball=Blow to head. Dickenson clonked an Indiana player in this game, but the play was not even reviewed. In fact, the only one I have seen called was Trey's disqualifying technical against Wisconsin. Either call them all or ignore them all.

It would be nice if the point guard plays more than one year too.

I think Verge is the GOHT at least. (Greatest of Hoiberg's time) so far.

Fred has a spotty record at the point so far. Cam Mack-Banton/Trey-Verge all had their moments but too many soft spots in their games to be classified as successful, much less GOATs. Who will it be next year??
