Okay, that's all... sorry for the detour. Back to hoops!

A few years ago it would have seemed ridiculous for D2 teams to need to win national championships with freshman phenoms too, but (other than Northwest Missouri State) it seems most teams will have to make their biggest strides when their best players are young before they transfer up to the next level.

On your other message, I feel that sometimes the best college athletes can come out of small schools or lower classes. Some of those kids are really just showing natural talent and in some cases not exactly coached up. Add in better coaching, maturing bodies, etc, it can sometimes really turn out better than some super hyped, top class kid.Last edited by NSU4LIFE; 04-01-2021, 09:08 PM.

Rice announced that they want to increase its student body to 9,000 and to expand the campus footprint as well.
Made me think about AU's plan to expand. Any updates on that?

Bummer in the sense that it didn't work out. Seeing his high school stats and everything, I was hopeful he'd come in and be a serviceable replacement for Plitzuweit a couple of years ago, but that obviously didn't work out. Hope he lands in a place that's a good fit for him.
