So Duruji was a pretty early announcement and Blackshear taking this into June is not unusual.
Trouble is, Hayes was criticized for "hands of stone" yet Hayes made 67.3% of his shots - team leader. Are we salivating over Duriji who hits 46% of his shots? That's not an inside scorer's statistic. So, we're left with hoping freshman Payne can hit 60%+? Scoring efficiency is what opens gaps, closes gaps. We need scoring efficiency.
Heavy criticism of Stokes who hits 46% - Stokes needs teaching so he can step up. White needs to make something out of the players he's already got : Stokes, Basset & Stone. Plus, that's what would attract better big guys. An HC's style-reputation is a broad package. This upcoming season, with these "eggs-in-basket" players should be telling on White's coaching prowess or not. I'm excited as a pumper, but doubtful as an observer of White's past.??
If he is that good and already also put his name in to test the waters in the NBA what are the odds he doesn't just go pro now, especially since he already has his degree? Anyone know his projected draft status?Yes, yes, and yes

Jamie Boggs aseaofblue.com said:“Evan Daniels believes the Florida Gators are serious candidates to land him.
I would say the two schools to beat early on are Texas A&M and Florida,” he said to the Herald-Leader. “I think Florida has a great sell with being close to home. And they have a major need at the (position) and they have the guard play returning and also enrolling with Scottie Lewis and Tre Mann.”
Keep tabs ... in coming years how much does Chance Johnson shine, does Keith Stone shine? It's neutral data on how well is your CEO's leadership getting best results wanted.
Should more effort be made to keep players from leaving their first-choice school?
