    with nba draft less than a week ago. according to the aggregate of 10 major mock drafts (espn, cbs, the athletic, etc.), cmb will go 10th to the rockets. the latest espn mock has him going 15th to the thunder. obviously wouldnt be in position to start as a rookie, but by his 2nd or 3rd year okc will likely have to start shedding salary.

    Going forward we will get squeezed out for these types of high caliber players. Sellers is probably 1 out of 100 players who would turn that offer down. We're a small State and relatively poor. We also have a small alumni base compared to many schools. The "rich" will get richer and we will suffer. It's a shame the way college athletics have been ruined.
    yep. If it’s not Auburn, it will be Oh State, Texas, penn St, Bama, etc. those with the deepest pockets, will buy elite teams.

    Nick Saban was a smart man to hang it up when he did.

    Very True statement. It's not just about recruiting and "Coaching 'em up" anymore. It's all about the Benjamin's now.

    Joe Flacco would eat Sanders' lunch if the Browns asked him to. There is no substitute for a veteran NFL QB who still knows how to win.

    Has that RB been cleared yet? You can offer a kid 8 million dollars but we'll get screwed on this situation somehow because of some irrelevant nonsense.
  • gamecock88 @ gamecock88:
    Faison? No he hasn’t. Last info was from early May saying they should know “soon”. Assuming they are planning on bad news with the recent signing Augustave.
  • Blitzkrieg @ Blitzkrieg:
    Do you know what the "issue" is about?
  • gamecock88 @ gamecock88:
    I think because he’s already 5 yrs out of HS. Some in JC and is trying to get another year similar to Pavia at Vandy.
  • gamecock88 @ gamecock88:
    Clemson just kicked a former 4* in state RB off the team. Sounds like discipline issues there but he‘s an instate kid and is now in the portal. 2nd highest ranked player from their last signing group so we should consider offering him. Marquise Henderson from Honea Path, SC.
  • Blitzkrieg @ Blitzkrieg:
    thx 88
  • FurmanCock @ FurmanCock:
    Marquise Henderon is the Clemson running back. Apparently there were some known discipline issues when he was at Belton Honea Path. There was a reason why we didn't offer him.
  • gamecock88 @ gamecock88:
    Maybe we can offer enough to him to improve his attitude. Commitment is for sale, so maybe attitude is too.
  • Blitzkrieg @ Blitzkrieg:
    I'm not up on all of this transfer stuff but the portal is closed so even if the Coaching staff offered him and he comes here would he even be eligible to play in 2025?
  • FurmanCock @ FurmanCock:
    Deadline for portal is only for athletes to enter it. Teams can sign a player at any time. Although I really don't see CSB looking at Henderson, coach is pretty serious about Team and Culture.

    Ok, not sure why the post above substituted the emoji for beating a 'dead' horse emoji in place of "deadline".

    Israel and Iran agree to a ceasefire agreement. Keep your fingers crossed that this works out.

    collin murray boyles to the toronto raptors at 9 in the draft
  • kingofnerf @ kingofnerf:
    Just happened to turn on the draft a few minutes before CMB was picked. Happy for him. He really was an unknown until Lamont and his staff made him better two years ago.

    Had some hail tonight for a bit as storms rolled through to break the heat wave. It's just been dang hot.

    . There’s some buzz about him dropping an f bomb when Toronto picked him and shaking his head. Wonder how true that is? Good for him regardless on the draft and I hope he shines in the NBA.
