The politically correct story is that his father is in poor health so he transferred to be closer to him (which is how he got the waiver) Closer to the truth is that he got blamed for Kentucky's poor season and the Harrison twins were coming.


Appreciate the honesty.

ULL had a lottery pg in Elfrid Payton and a big in Shawn Long who is just as good as Niang. We arent strangers to elite bits.

Long is certainly a good player, averaging 18.6 and 10.4 last year, but he's not really comparable to Niang. They are completely different players. Long is a more typical back-to-the-basket big who scores, rebounds and blocks shots, although he can shoot out to the 3pt land.

Niang is more of a playmaker and a below the basket big who doesn't block shots or rebound at a high rate, but does instigate the offense and makes plays for others.

I don't get why some of you have to act like a tool to a guy who wants to come and talk about his team.

And a decent amount of our conference games will be on ESPNU, or ESPNNews

I just looked it up. I have Charter. There are 3 packages for TV: Select, Silver, and Gold. I have Select. ESPNU used to be included in the Silver package, now they moved it into the Gold package, which is +$40.

Who's being a tool? We've been very welcoming, minus a comment comparing Georges to Shawn Long.

Also, we all act like tools to twocoach. And isn't he a guy who wants to come and talk about his team?

Here nor there
Long had good games against GSU.

Nevertheless GSU has two studs and have gone up against teams with a good player or two. What will hopefully be the difference is the rest of our team is hopefully better.
