Bilas is one of my favorite analysts in all of sports. Good article. Should be a great final 4.

Robbie Hummel is another favorite of mine. ESPN need to try and get him from Fox/BTN

Yup Robbie is good and Grant Hill is also great. The NBA is missing someone like Grant Hill, a smart educated superstar well liked by everyone who can give those halftime speeches about the state of the game when needed.

Yup I know folks like their little Cinderella team that does nothing but get blown out in the final four. But I love these matchups games can easily go either way. Plus these teams play nice basketball in terms of a casual fan just turning on their tv. You won't see pass around for 30 seconds like a hot potato. There are players who you'll see at the next level next year. Schools that travel well as well.

Meechie is only 22 though

its dem old nikkaz like chad baker-mazara that need to go though, dude is 25 but is prob lying like miguel tejada

But when you think about it byu been doing it for years and no one said anything were up in arms but now that black folks are well

surgery for a torn ACL in March but cleared for contact in September? I'd be surprised, nikkas aren't really rushing back like that from ACL tears anymore, and I definitely wouldn't do it for someone his age who is NBA. look at what happened with Sean Jones(Marq) and Bryce Hopkins(Prov) this season, and from a timeframe standpoint they tore their ACLs at earlier points in the 2023-2024 season

them BYU dudes take Mormon missions we know what the deal is with them, since Meechie is going back to SC we know why he shut it down to finesse another year in school

Yup prob just saying this to get a bag from someone. I doubt he plays another game in the NCAA. Breh already showed me enough at 17 all he has to do is work on a 3 point shooting. He's already a monster on the defensive end.
