less than 5%...it could easily be 0%, but they have no interest in being anything other than assholes.
With graham signing with KU and Ollie flirting with the Lakers Kansas and Uconn are off the list Oregon, Cal and Tenn. are heavily being considered by Shelton. He would have to sit out one year if he stayed in the ACC. His knee is not %100 yet but he is playing in a charity game tonight in Greensboro along with Harry Giles, Theo Pinson, Quincy Miller and others.

Sorry to see Shelton go. Can't help but think Manning told him he really liked Wilbekin and he believed he was going to be his floor leader. Ala Dean Smith telling John Crotty that King Rice was going to be his PG. Who knows. The timing certainly suggests Shelton asked DM point blank, and DM told him. Just sheer conjecture, but....
Definitely sheer conjecture. Seems more likely to me that he didn't connect with the new coaching staff, wavered in his commitment, and Manning moved quickly to replace him.
I question the sanity of any player that was dumb enough to commit to play for Jeff [Redacted] after his first couple years here.
Not just commit but actually sign the LOI. If he had any sense at all, he would have committed but said he would sign his LOI in the spring after the season was over ( just to cover his bases in case [Redacted] was fired which we all knew was a very real possibilty). Now he can't play at any other Acc school even though there are several that would love to have him.
Just dumb dumb decision making on his part.
I know we are using a scorched earth policy and maybe it is better, but I always liked Battle. Can someone direct me to the thread that discusses the assistant coach dismissal.
There is no way that we ran off a 4 star. Zero chance. Kid probably committed early and wanted to keep being recruited (I.e. Keep getting love and attention) and the coaching change gave him a reason.
