34-35% range second half of season after he gets acclimated

And he signed 5 HS kids this class. These guys still want and need to have HS development players More roster balance over time

@Gerry Hamiltonwhat is the expectation or Goosby’s 3 point percentage in your opinion?

They might be, but I think a lot of it also has to do with boosters seeing Michigan, also a football school, winning it in such short succession with Dusty May and an a team whose starters were all tansfers.

Look like Declan Duru is portaling out as well @Gerry Hamilton Duru may have been just too raw to wait to be developed.

Vic is awesome.

This tells you who Vic is.

Texas trying to get in on Jada Richard. Ole Miss and Baylor are competition

Massive advantage for those that went off early Thursday and late Friday. Management of the course certainly had an impact and is unfortunate to see.

The important thing is - who cares?

I have a little question with Rory skipping a bunch of tournaments and flying down to play Augusta alot in the weeks leading up to the tournament. He played good……I’m not taking that away from him but it may something we see out of more players moving forward. He said he would drop his daughter off at school, fly to Augusta and play 18 and fly back and be home by dinner. He said in his press conference after that he’d played it so much that he knew exactly where to hit it and where not to miss at. I’ll be interested to see if other players start doing it for the Masters and other majors.

Would love someone whose game is modeled after Tony Allen. Great defense with some 3-point capability.

Not a knock on Weaver, but Texas wants a different type of player long term. Teams didn't guard Weaver on the offensive end in the NCAA Tournament. Texas can't have that and get where they want to ultimately go. Texas has to have five players on the court that teams have to defend.

Great finish from Scottie. Just needed a better Friday.

Who will be the Weaver type player on this team?

The injury part is interesting. I've said a couple of times ... he had a non-contact knee injury scare around practice two or three this year. The initial reaction coming out of the building was they feared he could have season ending. It obviously wasn't, and was more of a scare. He has one more year of college hoops, so around 3 mill left while also taking into account what injury could do to draft stock. If you go in first round, 6-7 mill guaranteed and likely 13-15 on first contract.

The personal finance decisions for a 21 YO star athlete are not simple. First, it would be smart to delete his "wants" from the decision tree and concentrate on his "needs." ---------- Second, there is the valuation issue, which turns on net rather than gross numbers. For example, income in Texas is worth much more than in states with significant income taxation. Cost of living in metro NYC or LA or SF or DC is a six figure differential over having room and board provided in Austin. Offsetting endorsement deals in LA or NYC might be unlikely for most. --------- Third, there are longer term considerations. Residual benefits of a degree now vs. a degree later, or no degree at all, are measurable to an analyst and of greater or lesser meaning to a future pro depending on his long term name value; e.g., KD and VY have extraordinary long term name value that makes a degree have virtually no long term income value in comparison. Weigh the depth of the current draft and one a year later against the likelihood of reaching a lucrative second contract a year earlier. I think the chance of a career ending injury would not be weighed because it may have the same long term effect whether sustained under a lucrative NIL deal or under a first year professional contract - but insurance issues and CBA health care provisions may make weighing injury potential another variable. ---------- Two and three are tricky issues for most, but standard fare for a financial advisor. The first issue is the most pressing: does the player NEED the most dollars today? Is his family comfortable or living paycheck to paycheck? If the current need is there the third issue, long term consequences, falls out of the matrix. Only net current value need be considered.

Maybe … but what if Rory had driven it well too? Rory was -12 after two rounds and 90th in driving accuracy

Say he goes between picks 20-30, that’s somewhere between 2.5-3.2 million first year salary in NBA. I don’t know what he’d be making at Texas but I’m guessing somewhere in that range for NIL. So then how much can his draft stock actually improve if he came back? I don’t think that much. Max out in the mid-teens probably. I am skeptical of when teams “guarantee” players they will pick them, but for Swain if thinks he’s locked in to the late first, it probably doesn’t make sense to come back.
