I saw you say this on Twitter. Where would that scholarship come from to add one more?

With 8 scholarship guys returning, 3 portal guys, and 2 fish on scholarship in Mills and Turkson they are at the max 13 scholarships.

Dont tease me with Arthur Kaluma.

Brandon Gardner would also be huge with having more than one year of eligibility.

I'm going to go with 'trust me bro' math here and let's see if they can make one more nice addition to an exciting roster. And I say that factually. They absolutely can add one more.

Translation- don't ask, don't tell. We just aren't going to talk about scholarship numbers or how we are making this work.

For Billy to be slumming it on the basketball board, he must feel we have a pretty good shot to add somebody else whether that's one specific person or just some addition.

I love being wrong and hope I am. I'm going to predict we don't add anyone else. And that's not a comment saying Billy is wrong about having room. Just saying we are getting our hopes up about somebody else so we are going to be let down. It's how this usually works. BAS

After I posted this I remembered Buzz late in the season saying they needed to study the new rules on everything and are there even rules and then he said something like ; "If there are rules, we need to figure out is anything going to happen if you don't follow the rules"

Looch really needs to up his game and start a five page argument, or else why even post the green here.

The last time Billy was talking like this we ended up getting Boots.

So which thread is the one where we speculate whom Luicci is thinking of.

Looking at the best available transfers list, some top-ranked guys who have a clear connection to Texas or Buzz is:

JT Toppin (New Mexico)
Tranzarien White (UNC-Wilmington)
Arthur Kaluma (Kansas State)
Jaxson Robinson (BYU)

Anyone else that folks might think of as possible candidates with some sort of connection?

Do we think it may be someone who is testing NBA draft waters (going to draft combine) and thus if it happens might be after that plays out?

I'm gonna go one step further and say if Liucci is slumming it over here it's somebody we will all be excited about getting.

Is Bronny James a Buzz OKG? The world may never know.

JT Toppin is who I am hoping for!

The Dallas native who was Texas Boys HS Basketball 4A POTY in 2023 and Mountain West Conference Freshman of the Year this past season, technically has 3 years of eligibility remaining - though he might be "one (more) and done" after his sophomore year (next year) as he was already invited to this year's NBA combine.

I can imagine Toppin, Payne, Solo, Garcia, and "old man Coleman" rotating through the 4 and 5 slots and a guard rotation just as deep.

We could legitimately play 10-12 regularly (much like Auburn last year).

There is some buzz that he is leaning towards Texas. Tech thinks they might have a shot though.
Fanatic15...Drs2B!

Yeah. The Longhorn press is all over him as a potential for them.

Even MORE reason that I would like for the Aggies to get him (like tu did to us when they got Pope).

I read Billy's comments differently. There may or may not be someone in particular that we are close to adding. Rather there is someone who is leaving and that is where the speculation should be in my opinion.

Pretty sure you read that wrong. Buzz just tweeted last night everyone that isn't in the portal is coming back. Why would he tweet that yesterday if somebody was leaving?

"Not necessarily done. They CAN ADD ONE MORE"

Billy's words, my emphasis.

Do you even bro math, bro?
