I don’t understand why he would even want to return. Go live life and travel and make a few bucks over in Europe.

I’d be fine with him coming back as the 2 guard.

Toussaint
bohannon
Frederick
Murray
Nunge

Would be a pretty solid lineup. I don’t think he’s coming back though.

I know Fran loves Jordan but I can't imagine this would sit well with him. That doesn't align with the whole team/family culture that Fran preaches.

Not surprising, but it isn’t always a good idea to try to prove you are a bigger asshole.
Look..:I’m not saying “I’m” going to be an asshole

this is kind of like when one of your kids is being a complete shit to the other. No, I don’t condone hitting your brother..:but I told him 7 times to stop throwing shit at his brother while he’s doing homework

there’s only so much sympathy you can feel for someone in that spot

There is no sympathy. No mercy.

I don't even want Luka to come back. If you played 4 legitimate full years, get the fuck out already. It's college and sticking for the 5th year unless you were injured or at a small school going to a big school or you barely played and want to get a starting chance, fine.

If you were a 4 year starter, fuck off.

I don't think Fran would appreciate the whole, "I'll play, but only if I get XX in return" attitude. It shows a lack of commitment and, in my opinion, a selfish attitude. I want to help the team, but only if I get paid to do so.

hey jorbo, it was also a tough week because, you know, your team lost as a two seed and scored zero points.

He has probably ruined all his opportunities to make money anyways by coming off as a baby.

He's saying, very clearly, he'll come back if someone pays him. That's...something.

Yeah that's what I just said. ;)

What a tool.

If I were Fran I'd suggest to Jordan that his heart clearly isn't in this and that he shouldn't come back to play basketball simply for the opportunity to make $10,000 doing a couple of ads.

If that didn't work I'd very clearly tell Jordan that he wasn't welcome to return.

If Iowa wants another inconsistent, slow guard, take me instead. I'll do it for free.

Agree on principle, but principles are overrated.
