        Blackwell is disappointing. Says he wants to contend for a championship while leaving a team that went 4-1 against teams in this years final 4. I don't care where he goes. I reallly liked him as a player but he can't honor the only major college that offered him by staying one more season.

          He's likely going to make twice as much as Wisconsin could offer but your other point holds true

            What does this say about Self and/or KU? He's coming back, but the entire roster with eligibility (and no NBA shot other than possibly Flory) is jumping ship. Most of the UNC roster entered, but that isn't as surprising given the coaching change. Why are other top programs consistently able to get some of their best players to come back???

            Nothing because this is the reality of college basketball these days. Most teams will be replacing the majority of their rosters every season now. It sucks, but this is the current era of college basketball.

              @Texas-Hawk-10 majority yes. And honestly a clean house is better than overperforming bench guys sticking around so we dont build around them. However, if other programs are losing 55% of their guys and we are losing 95% thats a significant difference. How many guys are the FF or even E8 teams losing? That should be our comp. When you turn over 95% of your guys on a R32 team it means something entirely different than your turnover rate on a contender.

                Hill is one we cannot let leave campus without a commitment. Very important to lock that one down at a position of need. Took a ginormous leap in his Soph season and this is the type of guard you need. He can also create his own shot which is even more valuable.

                          Probably staying in the draft but will command a big check to land him if he doesn't

                            Will be interesting to see if the amount ever comes out. Heard it was a bidding war between Louisville, Dook and Tech. Rumors are rolling from unreliable sources of 8 million.
