This chart explains the PAC reasoning for picking CSU over UNLV, past FB success. Also, don't be surprised if this is the priority for expansion moving left to right. UNLV needs to do well this season to prove FB potential.

He's the perfect compliment to DJ in the backcourt, taking on some of the pressure to score.

For reference, Whaley ended up 12th on last year's list.

Another one enters the portal...

So much for all the internet rumors on dj. The haters will still have plenty of opportunities for "whiff" posts this off season and "so and so hates playing for ckk" posts if more enter the portal before it closes.

To me, Harper being quiet probably means CKK is here for another year. It's a make or break year of either making the NCAA tourney or looking in another direction for the HC position, a fair expectation after a 4th season at the helm. So this upcoming portal/HS class and what they accomplish together is CKK's last chance to prove that he's the guy to lead this program.

Dedan was paid 6 figures (allegedly), but I'm sure he's fielding offers of 10x that amount now. I'm thinking if he leaves, that will be the biggest factor in his and his family's decision.

Amen, brother. Not sure what fantasy world some of the fans live in, thinking a "real" coach can come in this late in the recruiting cycle and just run through the MW and make a run in the NCAA their first year. It's going to take some time for a new coach to be hired, assemble a staff, and recruit a roster of maybe 13 new players, including difference makers on the NIL-cheap. Oh and if they don't make the tourney first year, their seat becomes flaming hot.

Gotta hope there is a plan B for PG, and a revamp of the roster through the portal. Still need defensive/scoring wings and ball-handling guards to round out the roster. The expectation should still be NCAA for CKK and staff for year 4, which is a fair expectation for a first-time HC.

Milos Uzan, Oklahoma, would be a good replacement for DJ, I suppose.

It's almost not even worth recruiting the top HS players anymore, knowing that they're looking for a bigger payout after their Freshman year.
