The good news is that Diop and Thiam are by far the best bigs in the portal. The bad news is we probably won't land either.
-
I thought Stokes might announce today. If he announces between tomorrow and Saturday he would have to share his sports media attention with the NFL draft. Perhaps he will announce next week.

If Stokes committing is Plan A, what is Plan B?

That is the multi-million dollar question. It seems as if we've put all our eggs in that basket. Wholly apart from whether Stokes is really worth it, if he commits to UK or elsewhere, what then???
I guess we would have some budget for Diop or Thiam? But that really wouldn't be an upgrade from Flory and we would still be in desperate need of scoring wing. Not much left other than Juke Harris, and I assume we can't afford both him and one of the above bigs? Want nothing to do with the Baylor guy who just entered; black hole with the ball...

We have a plan B and a plan C. They might not be good plans, but we've got 'em.

Care to share those B and C plans? And that they might not be good plans, which seems pretty obvious at this point, isn't reassuring as to whether there will be any difference in on-court production on off-court dynamics from the past 3 years...

I don't know what the plans are. Maybe some international prospects

NBA Draft dropouts too I’m sure. Going to be a few guys hit the market then
-
Tounde would be a target for sure should he not get a first round promise after the combine. Bill doesn’t attend every year just for the scenery.

My confidence level isn’t very high in the staff currently.
