    A kid playing in the nba would be a nice recruiting tool dont fool yourself
    I didn't miss on anything?

    What do you think our record would be if McKinney was healthy? Yes he would have provided some stability, but there was no guarantee we would be seeing anything different than we are now. Dez averaged 10 minutes a game last year, less minutes a game than he did as a freshman.

    Yes, I know putting players in the NBA and NFL is used in recruiting. Go check out our football page. People on this board have steadily complained that our recruiting has declined. Yes, I know that it has gotten us into living rooms. Yes it gets us exposed to areas we don't normally have exposure. Who have we landed because of our NFL players? The number of stars on our recruits aren't changing. Maybe it is the deciding factor between us and another school.

    I just stated my opinion. We had a lot of experience and points graduate or transfer off of last year's roster. We have one of the best basketball players in mid-major basketball and we are 12-16. I feel like with more consistent guard play alongside Grant would have been something special.

    Agreed.

    Dez is a career 35% FG shooter and 20% from 3 land and his assist to turnover ratio isn't great (60 TO/47 asst).

    Yoder has almost the exact same shooting stats and a better asst/to ratio this year. Also, Yoder averaged more points this year than Dez did over 2 years.

    Dez wasn't going to be the difference maker this year. Also, reasons I think he leaves and could open a scholarship on the roster.
    North Dakota State, a football team the big boys of college football should avoid like the plague, helped christen a $90 million renovation to Snyder Family Stadium — including a statue of famed Kansas State coach Bill Snyder himself — by taking a sledgehammer to the place.

    Pretty sure Stick and Peyton are both from Omaha, so I’m guessing he had more to do with that than Wentz.
