My summary without Cade and ICE.
AA is a step away from being the next Tony Allen. His only weakness is trying to push it when the numbers are not there.
Going into the NCAA. AA, Cade, and Kalib could be a combo to make it to the Final Four. I'm big on having two-three star players, no more, everyone else are just contributors.. That is a little weak right now, but if we see improvements like today. Maybe.
AA-Cade-Kalib could do it. These are not Bryant Reeves-Randy Rutherford or Joey Graham - Tony Allen - Lucas superstar combo level, so they will need help from the bench.
Who knows, but today was a nice surprise

He needs to at least get bumped to 2.5 mil and be in the top 50. It could start at like 2.6 and then escalate quickly, but a raise and contract extension are due. He exceeded expectations and did so by developing around Cade rather than relying on Cade. This has been the most fun basketball season in a long time and the future looks bright. There will be other schools willing to pay him 3 mil per year. Just look at current salaries.

Lol I'm sure you're nice guy but what the hell does that mean. Some of our fans think like losers or talking shooting on other team. Osu is #2 in field goal percentage in big 12. #2 in defense field. goal this year. We are avg 5th big 12 from 3. Hell nobody bothers to look at stats. Not luck folks. Good team. Perhaps we only win 1 ncaa tournament game. Hope more but this is a good team guys. Sure Anderson played great true but Good team.
Additionally he hasn’t won a tourney game yet. This banter sounds a lot like when under pants was here and Holder was right to say no.
I’ve always like HCMB as a man. Questioned him as a coach more than once but he’s grown up as much as these players. Watching him interact with students after a win or flat out saying “we dont like ou” is first class. I hope his name is on the court someday, I want him to be that successful. But we can’t start throwing cash around yet. I hope in roughly 3 weeks we can but not yet.

Thats what gets you Travis Ford contracts and Underpants walk outs.
Im old enough to remember Kentucky “coming for” Ford. They weren’t. And we got locked into a bad deal reacting.
I get the fervor but he’s got a couple more steps to take. Get to the third weekend of March and let’s start talking $$$$.

I don't think there's an AD in the country that's going to confuse Mike Boynton with Travis Ford. I damn sure wouldn't want to be the AD that loses Boynton over money unless he gets an unbelievable offer. If it takes $2.5 mil this year I find a way to do it. If it takes a 6-7 year escalating contract, I do it. If he's winning (and I think he will long term), filling the seats will take care of most of his salary.
