They lose Graves, Nickelberry and Gallion plus Chanse so that should leave a spot open unless Jack wasn’t on scholarship last year despite practicing with the team. Is Jack on scholarship? I don't know the deal with his mom being an employee if he gets a free ride either way. If I recall correctly its what Michigan was doing with juwan howards son in walking on because he gets a free education just for being an employees son Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UBigbobby Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Would be nice if these guys could be led by a coach that they win BECAUSE OF, and not IN SPITE OF, as is the case with Whitesell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that’s the goal with any coach, in any sport, at any level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DooleyBull06 Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 The goal for the coaching staff was to address the needs of the roster in recruiting and to get this team prepared to win a MAC title next season. So far goal 1 has been addressed. Expectations are high headed into next season. If the ascension/improvement under Whitesell is any indication, at this point there’s no reason to believe Whitesell can’t lead this team a MAC title. We will see how big a loss losing Graves is. But at this point it’s fair to say we could have a better overall roster next season. I’ve never called for him to be fired, I’ve been critical of him but this year collectively the players and coaches seemed to figure some stuff out. And we got to the title game. Next year with an improved roster and returning what we are returning...could equal big things. Not Oats final season big, but MAC title big. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio is much better too and din't lose a Graves like piece I wouldn’t say Ohio is much better than us. We blew them out, they blew us out and they beat us by 1. I think the two teams are neck and neck and the two clear favorites in the conference. With Ohio being the overall fav to run it back. Which is a position I like bc it should further fuel our team.

Ohio is much better too and din't lose a Graves like piece We will likely lose a little in terms of PPG from our starters, maybe 2-4 points, as I expect collectively Williams, Mballa, Segu and Hardnett will score a bit more this year than last and this will offset differential between Graves / Jack scoring. However, we should have a much deeper bench than last year especially if we are able to add Blocker and Thiam. This table highlights how the Bulls are potentially a much deeper team.

DooleyBull06 Posted May 4, 2021 Author Share Posted May 4, 2021 No jail time. I hate this story all around. A part of me wishes he enters the portal so that both sides can move on. Another part of me doesn’t want him back. Especially with the players we have coming back and coming in. Another part of me doesn’t want to be that school that turns their back on a kid bc of something like this. Just an awful story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said I think he needs more development and I don’t think he gets drafted. Maybe second round but that means no guaranteed contract and G league life.

MKBullsfan Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Just want to let you guys know that I’m also declaring for the nba draft but at the same time retaining my eligibility for my current 9-5 job. I’m just testing the waters. Big thanks to all who helped me get to this point. Horns up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only worry with Josh is that he goes and plays professionally in Europe next season instead of here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I already said, it’s good practice for their next (serious) year. But now, feeding off your comment, I’d rather they do what Coach asks of them next season, and not what the scouts tell them now.
