Morez is a first round pick. Maybe duh Bullz will draft him?

Big Ten with a clean sweep of football, mens BB and womens BB titles.

Yep, a flu bug away from Nebraska ladies winning VB

Meh. If Morez had stayed we may have been cutting down the nets. He’s exactly what we were missing.

Implies we get Mirkovic, Wagler, etc.. with Morez in place.

If there was one player ever that stopped us from cutting down the nets by leaving town, it was Jens.

Yeah losing him was a win win even though I would have liked to see him stay. But it allowed us to play the way we played, giving guys like Mirk a lot more minutes to thrive.

Mara and Morez and Yaxel all projected 1st rd picks....Johnson actually seems like a Knick player from old.

Why would Morez being here influence Wagler? Morez would have been better for this team than Mirk was, as good as David was this season. But I’d take Mirk for 2-3 years than Morez for 1.

Morez for Wagler is 1:1

We replaced MJ with Mirk and still had Wagler committed

I don’t even think we filled all our slots this year

There is no actual scholarship limit. The roster is limited to 15. Billic filled the last slot..

We had roster space for Rez and Mirk, but didn't have the NIL..

With Rez family involved as well as Fichigan I suspect, not sure there would have been enough NIL to pull both of them off anyway.

Yes. That is what I said. We had roster space, but not NIL.

Should have said there is NO amount of NIL that could have made that happen....not that we didn't have enough.

I don’t think he felt we were developing him the way he needed to be developed. Which he’s probably right.
