I like kugels potential and tools, but if the rumors are true, he might as well reenter the portal now
He's a guy with nba tools and aspirations. He tested the waters after his freshman year. But if he's not willing to compete for minutes in college. How can he ever hope to make it in the league??
Which is exactly why I think he'll stay. He's got 2 years of eligibility left. He can be patient for one year (if he wants).

Koby Brea is a hot name because of his elite shooting metrics, but he's a horrible defensive player, who despite all the fawning over him, only averaged 11 PPG last year.
True. Which is why he shoots so well at that size and isn't really on the NBA radar yet.

Yes. The offseasons are way more active/exciting with the portal.
no. they're stupid. I hate it all. driving good fans away. Guess it gives t shirt fans something to talk about all summer tho...so...yay!
I'll try not to take the t-shirt fan shot too personally.
I definitely understand why you dislike the offseason movement. I definitely feel similar about some of the aspects of it as you do.
that wasn't directed at you

Brannen Greene could shoot too.

I think Rush, Chalmers and McLemore were all better shooters than Brannen.

Svi is my pick. He's underrated as a competitor. Judging by the long NBA career he's also underrated as a Jayhawk.
But I agree, Greene was a sniper. Chalmers, Rush, Ben, all good choices too.

Rush never had a season where he shot under 42% from 3.
Svi eventually became that sniper his senior season but he struggled for a bit.

They were all were more accomplished shooters, absolutely. Grady dick too.. because Greene is a clown and wasted potential
But just playing horse/shooting contest, don't think any of those guys were better shooters than Greene
He really had special shooting ability

If you mean shooting to be simply standing unguarded from your spot and shoot, then yea, probably Brannen.
Rush shot better from 3 than Brannen did in their careers and Rush made well over 2 times as many.
He was a better in game shooter.
