I swore someone somewhere said that Hadley is going to be back next year.

Very good Tad/recruiting article by Rooney.
He says Hadley and Lampkin are 'tentatively penciled in to return for 24 -25'.
We have a very bright future.

Rooney: Recruiting momentum continues for CU Buffs men’s basketball

Last year, Tad Boyle and his staff did something unprecedented in a tenure that stretches back to 2010.

I found this article on www.on3.com:

Rodney Terry pleased after Colorado scrimmage, looking for more from transition defense

Ahead of the start of the Texas men's basketball season, Rodney Terry's Longhorns trekked to Colorado to face Tad Boyle's Buffaloes in a "secret scrimmage." Terry was mostly happy with what he saw from his team in the behind-closed-doors exhibition.

God the NCAA is dumb. Moved the finals out of MSG, and now this. What a shame.

curious if this rule was applied retroactively if it would've changed anything last several years

I'm gonna take that part about Texas sucking at transition defense and turn it into CU will score a lot in transition.

@hokiehead

2023 it would have likely kept out Hofstra, Eastern Washington, and Morehead state who all won first round games.

I can't find 2022 net rankings, but it possibly could've kept out that St Bonaventure team that beat us and made the final 4.

2021 was a weird small NIT because Covid. 2020 didn't have an NIT because Covid.

2019 Low major champion Lipscomb auto qualified for the NIT and made the championship game.

Interesting change in heights to a couple of freshmen on the official roster:

• Bangot Dak now listed at 6-11, 180 (originally listed at 6-9)
• Assane Diop now listed at 6-8, 210 (originally listed at 6-10)

Tad's really found another source of growth hormone. He's been all out since Spencer

Dak looked to be the tallest dude on the team when I was at the scrimmage.

Can't believe Dak stole those inches from Diop. In-fighting, and the season hasn't even begun smh

 

[BuffsNYC]

With Diop on board and Williams sure to undo the braids at some point, I am ready for an A+ hair team this season.

 

[Falconetti]

Word!!! Elevate. Sooo exciting

Chen held the title long enough. I'm here for Diop!

+700 odds CU wins the Pac12

 

[Chautauqua]

I don't understand how Dak's recruiting went so under the radar, maybe because he was in middle of nowhere Nebraska? He seems to have the physical tools.

I'm eager to see who you go with tomorrow and why it's Amadou Doumbouya

 

[Lightning]

I see lots of potential in this short clip.

 

[Da Lama]

I see lots of potential in this short clip.

I said the moment he signed that he’d be legit from Day 1. Cody may be phenomenal and get all the press, but Diop is gonna be special here.
