Tiger 8,818 Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I don't see how another year at a place like WKU helps his pro stock. But at least this puts to rest the idea that something is wrong within the program. IMO this makes it clear that he was worried about his playing time moving forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish him well... Yup, agreed. His hard nosed, junkyard dog, never quit style was paramount to the team being SEC champions. I loved seeing him fight for rebounds at his size.

Hard to believe that convo could have taken place with Desean's production, but I just don't see any other plausible explanation for him transferring to Western Kentucky.

I doubt that of BP......but perhaps Murray thought he had better options for playing time.....Baylor for example.....and for some reason it did not work out. I can't imagine that BP would think the team would be better off without him...though maybe there were issues? but no reason to think that. Sounds to me like a big plan that did not come to pass.

gravejd 3,269 Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Western Kentucky....sounds like he wanted to get back to dominating the competition. Understandable.

KolchakAU85 430 Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 I checked his stats at WKy. Not all that impressive given the heart and edge he played with last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like that with basketball though. We have two guys that have reasonable hope of playing in the NBA and that's chumma and Wiley. The next guy up I think is actually Dunbar.

But not drafted purifoy and mac both have a way better chance than Dunbar. And I'd say that Purifoy has a better chance of having a longer nba career than Wiley too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustache eagle 2,389 Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 I love Mac but i don’t see him in the nba. He does not have the ball skills or outside shot. Although he is quick off the ground, he doesn’t have the strength or height for nba inside game. he’ll kill it in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
