I've only seen that from KU posters leary from the Randle episode, not sure there is anything more to it than that.

[Mr_Tomahawk]

The way Wiggins speaks in interviews makes me 99.999% certain he is UK-bound.

Would be great to have him hear...but Self lands 1 out of ever 10 of these kids. Cal gets the other 9.

Regardless, we will still have a damn good class coming in. Selden and Embiid graded out as 5 star recruits in the final McDonald rankings.

Marcus Smart returning for sophomore year.

Would've been a top 5 pick too. He thinks he needs to improve on his game and grow up from what I've read. I wish they all could be mature like him and realize leaving a year early or staying could be the difference between a 4 year career (like most OADs have, making it rain in the D league or on the bench) or a long, tenured career.

[Mr_Tomahawk]

Who else is returning to OSU? Were Nash and Brown seniors...?

With Smart returning...I think you have to bump OSU towards the top of the B12. Everyone else is will be down next season.

[KC_Connection]

Marcus Smart returning seriously makes no sense at all. That's a ton of money he's giving up considering he's basically a guaranteed top 5 pick in this draft. But whatever, KU's going to have their biggest threat to their B12 title in years from OSU now. Should make it a fun year to see if they can do it.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

As Bilas was saying, the NBA isn't patient with these kids. They expect quick results. That's why a lot of these guys "disappear" as he said after a couple years. If money, a quick retirement and a shorter career than Vanilla Ice is the plan then go. He compared it to some people that win the lottery then are broke a year or so later.

I applaud Smart.

Fugg. He's going to be sick. Really ****ing sick.

But I don't know man. If he blows out his knee and doesn't get a shot at the league, I'd take a Vanilla Ice career.

You would think if Smart is returning, the other two guys are too... They must think they can make a long run, and theres a pretty good chance that for once Kansas wont be picked to win the Big12.. even though they will still be the other favorite.

But it will be good for the Big12 to have a power team... other than OSU now everyone elses team will be mostly unknown and probably a few surprises... but early looks like a real down year.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

College Gameday will be in pokeland and Lawrence next year. I bet one will be the last game of conference play. You thirsty, OKSt? Well come get something to drink. Challenge accepted.

[Fansy the Famous Bard]

Jack Harry just pee'd himself with excitement. He's now the biggest Cowboy fan out there... well at least for a year.

Just replay the Kevin Ware injury a few times, and that oughta convince anyone to go pro. Don't have any idea why he's returning.
