    Please learn from that bonehead mistake Nate Oats made and have the ceremony before this evening's game. That was a hideous way for Sears and Nelson to go out.

    Curious comment. MBK has never done it after the game. Why start now?

    Apparently Alabama also has traditionally done it before the game until Wednesday night's awful decision, made to "avoid a distraction."

    Seems like an easy way to get the team pumped before the game. Worrying about it being a distraction seems like you lack confidence, imo. Having to do senior day after getting beat on your own court is cruel and unusual punishment.

    In Alijah Martin’s interview yesterday, he made sure to also call out Bennett Andersen. Martin just came off as a really good dude, and a team player that wanted to make sure everyone was recognized.

    The arena was less than half full at 5:40 that night, with fans still trying to get there from work. That factored into the decision. I’m sure they’d do it differently, in hindsight.

    Losing all 3 starting guards will be tough. Are we looking at portal to replace? Some 6’ 6” guard from N Dakota scored 51 pts last night, he’s a JR. just saying….

    Aberdeen, Klavar, Brown, and definitely at least 2 portal guards. Should be able to attract great talent, and I have a lot of faith in this staff’s ability to evaluate and put the pieces together

    There is a 100% chance we take at least 1 portal guard to go along with Aberdeen, Klav, and Brown.

    If there is anyone I trust to hit the portal and find the right players, it’s Todd Golden

    Well, here is the guy I was referring to, and he just hit portal.

    Treysen Eaglestaff is set to enter the transfer portal this offseason, according to a report.

    The North Dakota transfer burst onto the scene earlier this season with a 40-point game in North Dakota’s narrow loss to Alabama. He made 8 3-pointers in that game as well.
