Wardle and BU might be our North Star here, strange as it seems. Besides Mast, who else have they lost to the portal?

If a coach - even or especially a…hard-nosed one - gets full buy-in from his players and they stay, the results follow and sustain. Here’s hoping Pedon’s culture is as sticky as the “Rock Fight” mentality a few miles up I-74.

Wardle is our Morty

He is also not the best FT shooter. I would rather have Johnny, Mal, Luke, or Darius at rhe line those final minutes. I am not sure why we don't use him inbounding the ball more.

He also doesn't seem like he has much confidence in his shot these days.

Banks needs to just accept his role as a ball handler and veteran presence. We cant have a guy with his shooting percentages taking double digit shot attempts if isu wants to make a run in the Valley tournament. We are a better team when his usage rate is low and Johnny and Mal are the main perimeter players handling the ball and taking shots.

I will take Banks with 6 assists and 1 turnover everyday minus the double digit shot attempts.

Andrew references Chase as being 270...if true, he's shed 20 more lbs.

I did see a picture a while back of a pregame meal. The the rest of the team were lined up buffet style while Chase had his food pre-portioned out on the side. They're taking his nutrition very seriously.
