He can free up space if he needs too. You can cut players from the team at the end of year if they aren't performing at an expected level. Academics or disciplinary issues during the year can be reasons to cut a kid loose.

I think they will see post season play this year. I'm not banking on Mudiay going there until he signs his letter of intent. If he does he'll be a one and done but it is very possible for a be BIG year for SMU. Come on...we're talking about the great Larry Brown.

Wiltjer just isn't on the same level as the group of post players Cal is bringing in. For Cal that is one less player to worry about getting minutes. I'm not a big Kentucky fan but I really like this team this year and their balance just got better (in my opinion).

[Hidden Content] Called it! Can't blame him though...

People are sad. A [b]kid[/b] makes a life changing decision that is best for [b]him[/b] and people find it necessary to make him feel like less of a person because he didn't choice the school they're a fan of. Jabari Parker had the same thing happen to him when he choice Duke. If you are so involve with sports that you are willing to make death threats or belittle a [b]kid[/b] you need some serious help. But great for Wiggins. Good fit and a great coach to develop under. I really liked how he handled the announcement as well.

Great pick up in my opinion. Just of the potential.

I understand Tubby Smith came in to UK when it was a really hot program but it takes a lot to maintain a program like that and he did. All his other jobs he was successful so I expect and hope for the same at Tech. Tech needs not just a quality coach but a quality person. Good hire. I was hoping they picked up Keith Frazier from Kimball HS but he went with ol Larry Brown and SMU.

I wonder how that will affect Wiggins?? Can't see him going to a stacked team like this. I kind of want him to go to his parents alma mater at Florida State to see him play against Jabari Parker at Duke a couple of times next year. The bad thing about that is FSU is not all that great.

I'm all about hardcore coaches but this wwwaaayyy to much and very unnecessary. Fire him! Doesn't deserve to coach any level of basketball.

Good move on his part. I just don't see him getting any playing time behind Andrew Harrison. Crazy travel though. First went to NC State, transferred to Kentucky and sat out a year, disappointing year at UK, and now has to sit another year before playing at Georgia St (unless he gets a pass because of his dad).

[quote name="Mr. Buddy Garrity" post="1390357" timestamp="1364773248"] Final Four (1) Louisville vs (9) Wichita State (4) Michigan vs (4) Syracuse I think its gonna be an all-Big East Conference Final with Louisville vs Syracuse. [/quote] I picked Louisville before the season started and I picked them in my bracket (which is destroyed!). Sticking with them. I'm going with Louisville and Michigan. High scoring game...87-82 Louisville.

Duke vs Louisville sunday. Hope Pitino can pull it out. [/quote]It was an impressive 6th season from the program. Wonder how they got so good so quick?? I expect an investigation soon on some sketchy recruiting possibly. I have ZERO proof, but something tells me something is just not right. Anyone else thought of this possibility? [/quote] I don't see it. All of those players look like your normal overlooked talent. A bunch of kids that probably had a couple of scholarship offers out of high school or JUCO. Now if they had a couple Rivals or ESPN top 100 players on the team. Maybe. I doubt there will be any recruiting violations there. Plus, have you seen their campus??? Can't blame them for wanting to go there.

Take the lay up! Choke city...

I'm okay with giving the national player of the year to Burke just off this game! Not that his season wasn't great because it was but a explosive 2nd half with a 28 foot 3 pointer to send your team in to OT. Wow.

Their not bringing in notable recruits either. Rough times ahead.
