    If Lagway has a decent to good first year, you just know other teams will be after him big time.

    I assume Napier is well aware of this possibility.

    This portal stuff is just maddening. :eek::rolleyes:

    I think that Lagway is a pretty good kid and will stay with his commitment as long as we are good to him.

    Of course, a little money will always help.

    But IMHO if Billy goes then all bets are off.
