That sounds fun. Go to Australia for a year-ish.

Josh Giddey route ..that coach has a history of player development.

I watched the Thunder game last night and that guy Giddey is a beast.

There have been all kinds of rumors flying regarding Ron Holland. It will be interesting to see if he sticks with the plan and is on the Longhorn roster next fall.

Might be that sweet Bluey NIL money.

Now that song is in my head.

Man, if he loses Holland that is going to be tough. Texas was in a bad spot with his run in the tourney. They couldn't let him go. As my uber liberal friend that went there explained "they (administration) would be racist a holes to not give him the job". That was the deal, if he was white I am not sure they would have been quite as hand cuffed. I personally like him, and think he is a great guy. I am not sure how good of coach he is however. His results will be impacted by the exodus of players. They probably had the most talented roster in the big 12 this year, and most balanced.

They'll just lower the bar and play mainly sec teams soon

If Giddey can figure out how to shoot the three he's going to be killer. His defense is a little suspect but he could be a real offensive weapon and he's an outstanding rebounder.
