If Happ is back, Wisconsin will land somewhere between 30th-40th in KenPom and be like a 8-11 seed - nowhere near top 15 team in the nation. If he leaves I could see Wisconsin as one of the worst power 5 teams in the nation.


Michigan State is going to be pretty bad I think. Wont be able to defend anyone. Izzo will probably play Goins way too much. Cant imagine their ceiling is anything higher than a middling conference record and say a 7 seed resume.

Wiscy lost some guards to injury, they have everyone coming back and did play ok down the stretch.

I think Michigan St can figure out it out with Langford, Winston, Ward, and McQuaid. plus Tillman and they have a good class coming in. They may end up a 7 seed but I will bet tons on them making the tourney.

Maybe MSU would be efficient offensively with McQuaid Cash Ward and Langford(Langfords awful. Look up his conference only stats past two seasons.)

But they definitely would get killed defensively. If Michigan State makes the tournament next season, it seems like it will be because their frosh are instant impact guys and take mins away from McQuaid, Goins, and Langford.

Was Nova really near 30-1 to start the season?

I don't know the answer to that, but it wouldn't surprise me. They lost two big pieces from the year before with Hart and Jenkins graduating. If it's true, the thinking they may have been they would be taking a step backwards replacing those two with Booth and Spellmen.

Brunson always was tight, but I think what is notable about their success this year was that Bridges, Paschall and DeVincenzo all improved remarkably, and Spellman exceeded expectations.

V won early, but I remember they looked a little shaky early on, and Western Kentucky and Tennessee both gave them a bit of a rub at Atlantis.

Word is that Ward is gone. Him and Izzo don't like each other, he'll end up in Europe playing

Brag: bet the max on Nova 20-1

Beat: the max was not that high

Beat: wagered in bitcoin when the price was like $16k and won the bet when the price was $7k

Allegations stretch to School implying he has received special treatment in that he gets meds for treatment without a diagnosis, thereby allowing him to avoid knowingly transmitting which would be criminal.

Dude would be a massive massive troll if he announces his decision in Indiana, makes it open to the public, and doesn't pick Indiana

Like 90% sure Zion Williamson just announced in his hometown in South Carolina with both Clemson and USC thinking they may land him and he turned around and picked Duke anyways.

And of course, who could ever forget the hilarious troll Cliff Alexander pulled on the Illini?

To be fair Cliff Alexander announcement was an all time troll announcement.

I'm not saying it isn't possible, but it would be a massive troll. Especially for a fan base all ****ing in on getting their instate player. Far more than Clemson on getting Zion.

Zion can return home to South Carolina. Not sure if Romeo is allowed back in Indiana if he doesn't pick IU.

So if he chooses Vandy or Kansas he should simply put out a press release? If that's the case, the next obvious thing would be to ask why is he doing this anyway since we all know that he has to be going to IU right?

TBS, I do think he's going to IU. Don't know why, just a gut feeling I guess. Nothing to do with the fan fare around the announcement.

BTW, the Haas story seems to have disappeared as quickly as it spread.

See what I did there?
