Which is 4 more points and 3 more rebounds than he averaged vs college players under the "coaching" of Bryce Drew and his brother-in-law aka post-player-coach/investment-banker.

I thought his future was as a designated 3pt shooter.

And when does that 10-day period start?

I see 16 players on the Knicks' roster and no Simi.

The team does include, however, a bunch of Kalipari Kids:
Kevin Knox II, Nerlens Noel, Immanuel Quickley, Julius Randle, Derrick Rose and Honorable Mention to Jacob Toppin's older brother Obi.

Everyone better be happy Bryce actually recruited his butt off and brought in players like Garland, Simi, Saban, Pippen, Disu, and Nesmith. People forget that Simi blew out his knee in HS and hadnt played ball in 10mths and was released to play just before start of season. Bryce had already lined up another top 15-20 frosh class when we had the disaster of injuries / bad luck. Bryce was changing systems and loading up on talents to play the system and nobody wants to recall this either since Kevins players couldnt play 4out... its easy for some to blame all on Bryce and then in a blink of an eye he has another team in the NCAAT while Vandy has limited success options in our future with current staff (or lack thereof)

Perfect world, Stackhouse will focus on MBB recruiting and stop the poor me imagery when he has been givien every advantage the previous staffs didnt get.

I AM happy that his sorry butt is gone from VU forever. Period.
Why don't you forget Vandy and this board and go root for Grand Canyon, that bastion of academic achievement.

Knicks changed their mind. In other news, AZ PF Jordan Brown in the portal. 6' 10" former 5* recruit. Well traveled.

Grand Canyon in the big dance = making a bowl with a losing record. The WAC is a joke.

I did like how Borat made fun of GCU though... his "daughter" was majoring in VCR repair there!
