UM stepping up NIL recruiting right after Hunter bolts is interesting. Wake up call?
Are they stepping it up?
Or is big amount of that money just leftover from Hunter’s portion that was supposed to entice him into coming back?
Word is he entered the portal in an attempt to squeeze more NIL cash. Would be a very Dickinson thing to do if true
We've got plenty of chuckers. Don't need any more.
Toast the kid has Top 5 pick talent---but unfortunately has the motor of a "free agent". Shot 29% from three----not bad. Has a nice shot,really. His mid-range is pretty decent. Atheltic as ****, runs like a deer----7'0.
I'd love to get him. Maybe Woody can sell the "look at what we did with TJD?'---I dunno.
Even though we have the NIL, kids still wanna win. Alabama/Arkansas have done that....And their style of play is attactive. Plus, he's from Little Rock.
If he goes to Arkansas, his handlers are idiots.
It’d be basically the same situation as Oregon in terms of PT. They already have the Mitchell twins, Brazille, and Baye Fall on their roster.
Alabama at least has openings for PT in their frontcourt.
I was throwing Arkansas out there b/c its where he is from...I doubt he would go there--As you said, they are busy at his position already.
Probably between Alabama and IU
I was a fan… needed to get significant minutes to find a groove. Painter values possessions and Newman threw those away. Not saying Painter was right but that’s his system. I’m gonna miss the kid - I really liked him.
Dickinson's a douche, but how is that different than any player? Kids wanna get paid, and I don't blame them.
I didn’t say there was anything wrong with it, it’s just in line with something he would do. 🤷♂️
A player of Dickinson’s caliber/role leaving a program like UM like he did is kind of unprecedented I feel like. No other examples really come to mind but maybe I’m forgetting something. Obviously it’s a new era of CBB… but man.
That said… seems like the door is not closed on him coming back.

No surprise. Big surprise will be next year when we turn Bradley big man into honorable mention and get a 10 seed instead of missing the NIT.
They are still reeling from a womens basketball loss
Ngl pretty happy with the pick-up. Another ball handler who can defend and score. Guessing we’ll add one more guard.
That was mutual after a super rough season from Caleb tho.
UM wants Hunter back and he had a really good season personally as clearly the best player.
I guess this absolute unit of a man is visiting us right now. 6-11 325lbs and played football and basketball for Washington State. Also played b-ball at Oregon St. and Idaho. I have no idea wtf we are doing right now, but I would welcome this dude just for the intimidation factor. Guy needs to get into pro wrestling after college lol.
Rumors it’s a big ten coach. Howard and Woodson, distantly followed by Holtmann make the most sense.
