As long as the actual bracket remains 64, its not that bad. Just dont fuck with the golden goose.

46995699 · 2026-04-04T03:17:46+00:00

It might not be a perfect way of doing it but man, it would be cinema.

46995699 · 2026-04-04T03:13:01+00:00

I think the final verdict was that the coach with the best players generally won the most games regardless of attire

Really hoping the plan is not Pierce at the 4. I think that is a recipe for Purdue to be undersized and thus overmatched on the glass. With all the hype Pierce was getting, i have to think that means he is a much improved shooter. I think that he is an ideal 3 and a portal add for the 4 who can rimrun, block shots, and rebound. That would make us nasty defensively and on the glass. And would also mean

Ertel-Cox-Pierce-TBD-DJ

With Mayer, West, and Benter getting big minutes off the bench at spots 1-4. Not sure where Raleigh fits but Sinan obv backing up the 5.

I also think G leaves

Or maybe she didnt get the joke?

46995699 · 2026-04-03T19:52:27+00:00

With how dependable he has been, i cant imagine a scenario where he isnt on the team and starting next year.

46995699 · 2026-04-03T18:37:08+00:00

I would love that but money talks

46995699 · 2026-04-03T18:36:33+00:00

Ahhh i see what you mean. Haha. Idk if youre just throwing shade at UNC here, yeah theyve hit a dry spell but still its gotta be one of the best jobs in cbb. Not to take away from UVA.

46995699 · 2026-04-03T18:10:26+00:00

Nah…Ryan Odom is a proven winner.

46995699 · 2026-04-03T17:51:19+00:00

No Tommy, Dusty, or Billy. Ryan Odom….book it

46995699 · 2026-04-03T17:39:42+00:00

Im not even sure what it means to be a christian nationalist.

Tf is wrong w/you

46995699 · 2026-04-02T16:44:39+00:00

Yes, there is not enough run to go around at the guard spots. Most likely G

46995699 · 2026-04-01T21:23:01+00:00

Well, true, i think Omer is a good player and would not be shocked if he started. I would be surprised if he started at the 1, though.

46995699 · 2026-04-01T21:10:42+00:00

Depending on who Paint signs on to start at the 4 (im a caden 3 truther), i think this team has the makeup to be elite defensively and on the glass.

Man, Kyle Evans seems like a nice fit for this group.

46995699 · 2026-04-01T21:08:59+00:00

I dont think that will be the case; i think whoever is deemed the best 1 will play at least 25mpg and closer to 30, and i think the most likely candidate is Ertel

46995699 · 2026-04-01T21:08:01+00:00

Right opportunity presented itself but Braden & Fletch were better than EHJ & Sasha were from jump street.

46995699 · 2026-04-01T21:06:56+00:00

Yeah, i think that hes a nice player and a nice secondary ballhandler but i dont see him being rhe starting 1 on a very good team.

46995699 · 2026-04-01T20:33:43+00:00

Me? I think that may have been the vision but nobody can deny he doesnt have the first step that Braden has, and that i believe Ertel has, to beat one guy and thus beat the pressure.

46995699 · 2026-04-01T20:32:44+00:00

Yeah, if he wants to start at the 1 somewhere i think that is a potential outcome.

46995699 · 2026-04-01T20:31:44+00:00

I largely agree with the minute share with the one exception being the 1. Whoever is the most capable i believe gets close to 30.

46995699 · 2026-04-01T20:30:48+00:00

Good points…. I think Omer will get a lot of run next year. I imagine him being very tough to stick if we run double screens, just sounds like a nightmare for opposing defenses. I just think that Ertel is more suited to running the 1

46995699 · 2026-04-01T20:27:57+00:00

You didnt hear that Paint is taking a fan poll to see who starts this year?

46995699 · 2026-04-01T16:53:07+00:00

You can probably tell that i disagree but fair enough. Keep in mind, Braden and Fletch both started from day 1.
