trueblue32 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 1 minute ago, MuchMany said: I assume he means Nate Will returning for his Soph season. Which if true would be great obviously. Also likely means Rondo is staying, as those guys are really tight. They're currently driving convertibles around Orlando đđ¤đź Ahh, I read it as Noah Williams.  That's good to hear nonetheless, portends good things for Jeenathan's development next year if Oats believes he'd be a contributor in the SEC at some point.  Jordan, Graves, and Johnson (if he stays) is a backcourt with 3 all-MAC players.  We should be solid on the wing next year with Grant and Williams making a step up.  We just gotta find big men and I think we're still a tier 1 MAC team next year.

MuchMany Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 I don't know about you all but I'm ready to run through a wall for Coach after that.
