  1. Expectations for the 2021 season

    FWIW, here is an article on the toughest and weakest OOC schedules in each conference. GT's OOC schedule was ranked the toughest in the ACC and the 5th toughest in the country (the 4 teams in front of it were all non-P5 schools)...
  2. Expansion Talk 2021

    The NCAA has had basically zero control over NCAA Div 1-A football for a couple of decades. They have no control over scheduling, no control over money (they receive $0 for Div-1 college football, almost all their money comes from March Madness). That is all controlled by the P5 conferences and...
  3. 2021 Preseason Thread

    National press definitely is not buying us, hope the team proves them wrong. This article is about best win total bets based on simulations. It has GT as one of the top 'take the under', with the line set at 5 wins...
  4. Expansion Talk 2021

    NIL will be interesting to watch simply because it is new and expectations might not match reality. It feels like alot of athletes and those around them see this as a golden goose, but is it likely to be more like most things were there is a ton of value for a handful of athletes and relatively...
  5. Expansion Talk 2021

    Dennis Dodd article suggesting that the SEC's moves may kill any expansion of the playoffs in the short term. Alot of administrators unhappy with the SEC move -especially when they were one of the voices advocating for expansion of the CFP and that other conferences are unlikely to expand the...
  6. Returning players for 2021-22

    Best wishes to Jose and Moses. They gave all they had for 4 years and got us back to a place we haven't been in a decade. I'll miss seeing them at the Thrillerdome but I am excited to see new faces and a new team and hopefully see the program continue on an upward trajectory.

    I'll be pleasantly surprised if he comes back. He is the oldest player in the draft who has to make this decision today - by more than a full year. Hard to see a guy who is 23 yrs old and has a family coming back to school. As you get older you get less attractive to the NBA.

    That's a big win for Miami.
  9. ACC Discussion 2020-21

    VT's Tyrece Radford has entered the transfer portal. He was their 2nd leading scorer and third leading rebounder last season. It may or may not be connected to him having a positive ignition interlock result that has resulted in an August 9th hearing about revoking his probation.
  10. 2021 - 2022 GT Basketball Schedule

    As a WI native i'm looking forward to that game. WI is going to be a really different team than it has been the last couple of years in terms of personnel. I'd expect a lineup along the lines of Guard 1 - Jr Jahcobi Neath (played his first 2 years at Wake under Manning) or FR Chucky Hepburn...
  11. Coaching Carousel 6 - You can't make everyone happy. You are not bacon.

    That was my first thought, they are all in. They already have a case pending and now they are going to go out and bring in walking violation Larry Brown.
  12. Returning players for 2021-22

    FWIW, Jose (and all college players) have to announce by July 7th on whether they are going to return to college. If I was a betting man I would expect Jose to stay in the draft. He's 23 yrs old, so another year won't make him any more attractive to NBR teams, just less attractive - and he has a...

    That assumes he comes in as a recruited athlete. If he is coming in as a walk-on he wouldn't be announced until he was in school and officially on the team. Hill clearly has P6 athleticism. I will point out that the level of defense being played in that video is almost non existent compared to...

    I think the obvious good news here is that Devoe is not even on the list. So he is coming back. https://www.nba.com/news/nba-announces-early-entry-candidates-for-nba-draft-2021 Most of the ACC players on the list will not be back at their schools. Some have already mentioned transfer spots if...
  15. Coach K to Retire After Next Season

    The Goodman quote basically confirms 2 things. One, Duke was going to stay in the 'Family' and two, K was going to pick who replaced him.
  16. Coach K to Retire After Next Season

    ESPN has updated their story to say Jon Scheyer has been hired to be the new coach in 22-23. https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/31553654/duke-blue-devils-coach-mike-krzyzewski-plans-leave-season-leave-next-season-sources-say Associate head coach Jon Scheyer has agreed to...
  17. Coach K to Retire After Next Season

    Jim Boeheim is 76 (77 this fall). I fully expected him to retire after this season. Now with K retiring I could see him being stubborn enough to wait another year so he doesn't retire the same year. You also have Leonard Hamilton who is 72 going on 52. Feel like he could coach to 80. Also, Jim...
  18. 2021-22 Offseason discussion

    If all you schedule is patsies you will not get an NCAA bid even if you win all the games. NC ST found that out a couple of years ago. You is not likely to be seen as a tough game and given past matchups the ACC/B10 game is unlikely to either. GT will need to schedule at least 2 other matchups...

    Yes that is accurate. Players have until end of day Sunday May 30th to declare for the draft. https://www.nba.com/news/2021-nba-draft-process-dates-official-release Players have until July 19th to withdraw. There was also at one time discussion that a player who went undrafted and hasn't...
