Smith will leave from NCSU. Supposedly he was waiting until after the announcement of the new coach to make his announcement. Should be any time now.
Will be surprised if Yurtseven stays in the draft

I'd be surprised if he doesn't go back to Europe.

So which Louisville player(s) actually stay in the draft? I can see Adel and Johnson coming back.

Prospect wise they should all come back but I'd bet Mitchell stays in the draft. The other two I wonder if there is a family dynamic at play?

I think Mitchell is gone. He'll shoot it well enough. Only question mark will be his athleticism IMO but that can be assuaged with a strong combine performance.

What's the story on that guy? Why does it come at no surprise that he'd be leaving?

ETA: And also, what in the world do those 2 tweets have to do with each other?

He was a burger boy I think and can't crack that rotation. I wonder if DeLaurier breaks free too

Ah, ok I guess I see. Had the dude come here he might could've made a name for himself. As it is, he basically wasted a year. Now cue all the guys who'll remind me, "Uh, it wasn't a wasted year, he was at Duke, blah, blah ..."

There has been nothing official on C-Matt but imo it is more likely that CMatt is not on the team next year than he is.

I doubt Yurtseven will return to NC State. If he isn't drafted he likely will return to Turkey and play professional there.

I wonder if Frank Jackson will return to Duke. He is heavily involved with a Mormon church in Chapel Hill, but I could also see him leaving. He said once he saw basketball as his mission for the church.
