Also fair point. If we're talking college player, I think there's a strong argument for Matas. If we're talking NBA prospect, I'd still take Allen. Allen was drafted for elite traits. Matas is being evaluated more on versatility and overall basketball skill. Those are two different conversations.

I think that's fair. Matas has a chance to be a really good player, but Allen was a different level of defensive prospect. People forget Allen was a one-and-done freshman who went in the first round largely because NBA teams already knew he could rebound, protect the rim, and defend at an NBA level. I'd probably put Matas in the Hayes/Bamba/Myles Turner discussion as a prospect, but Aldridge and Allen feel like a tier above. If Matas ends up getting drafted that high, it'll be because teams are betting on his versatility and upside, not because he's already the defender that Allen was coming out of Texas.

Blake’s muted in this situation right?

Thanks to all!

Qandace is 6'2" combo guard which appears to be what teams want now. The kind of player that can play multiple positions. She is strong, great handle, can hit the outside shot, and has a lot of dog in her. Coach continues to re-load. We likely will lose Breya, Sarah, and Maddie. That's it.

He really is.

I don't get it.

Great breakdown and analysis, Payton!

This class was way more impressive to me than the one with Durant given how many pieces were brought in and the caliber each one is. By sheer numbers it is almost incomparable. It was an eleven/twelve man class. Not one scholarship seems like a stretch.

Great for who.... 😂

I like my feet on the ground unfortunately.

Mayo and corn dog eating contests every Friday for students and subscribers for annual memberships or their own segment on OTD clubhouse?

Bring home the dub!!!

Just Apple Podcasts is my guess.

Couldn't pull this off at NC State. They have quite the collection of coaches there at LSU.

Obviously, point is that Texas has won 3 of the 4

I don’t know that Texas has had a player like Matas. All the other bigs were much more athletic than him. Cameron Ridley is the closest comparison I can think of.
