Thor was liking Oklahoma State stuff the night before he committed. There is no suspense or give a damn About his announcement now. Texas fans don't care about basketball and it's leaked out that the obvious choice all along is where he's heading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dual-Threat Rigby 8,819 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 im telling you this guy messed up putting it anywhere near Jalen's lol. Although Jalen is doing the same thing as him at this point, just GLeague instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The post I saw said they would try to take 3 to 5 but not sure how many they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUBwins 10,107 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I think if Jalen comes, then Greg Brown comes. I said earlier, Logic be darned, we get all three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What can they do other than complain? Too many options with the money out there, especially in the NBA and their affiliates. I think there are plenty of very good players to go after, and it might be best to go after those that are in the between 20- 150 best HS basketball players, and fill in with GTs and TP players. Its just a lot of recruiting for these top 5 or top 10 guys, and you have little time to find really good players when we are talking mid April for our signing date...

As a matter of fact..I would change the final College basketball signing period almost right after HS basketball is over, so these players have to make quicker decisions. Waiting till mid April makes it easier for them to go G League, NBL than for colleges to find any left over college transfers to recruit...

A good argument can be made that the game would be better without the high profiles & then having the rest stay longer thus making the game play better, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
