Well, he’s also in the portal. But this is coming through one of his dad’s former teammates.

"I can tell you that I was a big fan prior to the hire, but he absolutely blew me away today!! Sitting there I wiped away tears 3 or 4 times as he layed out the future by connecting with the past. He is soooo Kirk like in multiple ways, with his vision, his plan and his passion."

The 2nd hand embarrassment I felt while reading that...

He was in the room for the Press Conference. Makes sense.
He and Tadjo have been liking most IG posts (from the hoops account) regarding the hire, for whatever that's worth.

Dix update: sources say it's still Iowa, Kansas, Creighton, Illinois, Kentucky and Alabama. A return to Iowa is still starting to become a real option. Creighton and Kansas are in that top tier as well.

I don’t get the love for Howard. He’s springy but slight and only 4.5 points a game this year. 31% 3 point shooter.

Everyone keeps saying Howard was coming on strong at the end of the year. Can’t be any worse than Kingsbury 🤷🏻‍♂️

Was there this debate when Fran was hired in 2010? I didn’t become a Halo faggot until 2013.

Pretty much everyone was on board with Fran given his style and track record of rebuilds. Also his recruiting barracuda.

This is way different. We finished around 60 in KenPom and somehow produced 4 of the best portal players. This won’t take long.

Freeman committed to Creighton and now insiders say they’re probably out for Dix, because he doesn’t want to play with him again. Because he quit on his team. Kansas writer thinks it’s them or Iowa most likely.
i wouldnt either, owen is a fucking fatass piece of shit

Creighton was the only one I was worried about. I think Coach BM convinces him to stay now.

If that’s true, Creighton should throw Owen’s ass to the curb and re-enter the Dix sweepstakes.

Latest intel: Kansas has the highest offer for Dix. Ben is prepared to make it competitive. Source close to him said he thinks he stays but there’s def some stuff going on there
