My gut is Mali is gone.

You go when the iron is hot. Is it hot for him? Hard to say, definitely warm. One more year, and I think it's boiling over.

Either way, if he leaves now, we can thank him for the win over UVA and getting the Cuse to the FF.

Quick, someone throw some cold water on that iron!

I don't even think the iron is heating up right now.
 
He was gone as soon as that 4 minute stretch against UVA happened. You all need to save yourself the anguish and just accept it

hey you're good at this!
 
Its not so much kids staying as it is being foundamentally well rounded, like unc, nova, heck even duke.

We had a big hole at Center and lacked any strength at PF as well.
Malachi will own our offense... if he returns.
 
Gilardino was extremely inaccurate recently about something. Believe it was the infractions. I could be wrong girald, so forgive me, but i thought you said we were getting off light?

The impression I am getting is that he will declare - no agent. If it's 50-50...he goes as I think he really wants justification to declare. But...he has some grounded people surrounding him who will advise him to stay if the situation warrants it.

Why does he want to declare so badly?

I tend to agree but from what ive been hearing there's a bit of a concern about blowing your real true chance...retreads not welcome type of thing

You just know that there are some paranoid NBA people that will look at a player opting out of getting feedback that immediately assume it's because the player's trying to hide that they aren't that good.
 
It seems to me that some of y'all are bashing the messenger because you feel that might somehow discredit his intel. Anyone with half a brain knows what he was getting at. All this vitriol and immaturity can only bring bad karma for the eventual outcome. All signs point to mal declaring. Let's just hope he leaves himself wiggle room to back out.

Aside from Rakeem Christmas, have we ever had a McDonald's All American stay more than 2 years?

Devendorf - 3
Greene - 1
Flynn - 2
Fab - 2
Waiters - 2
MCW - 2
Coleman - 4
Malachi - ??

The only one I really think left too early is Greene. Devendorf had a kid to support plus the off the court issues. If Fab hadn't needed to be suspended twice he probably would have left at the end of that season anyway but we'd love him even if we didn't win the NC. The one here made the right move. I think Malachi will benefit from one more year here, but if he is outstanding in the tryouts and projected to go high I won't say he will be wrong to leave.

According to the new rules I thought he can change his mind after the combine and still be eligible? So I imagine there will be a lot of players testing the waters. I think "vitriol" is too strong of word. I haven't seen it like it was with Tyler Ennis. Mal took us to a final four as a freshmen. That's a pretty good contribution to Orange basketball. As someone else said on one of the threads, I'd rather have him for one year as a freshmen and make it to the final four than not have him at all.

There has been no "vitriol." Some people are way too damn sensitive.
 
Not sure why any fan would be upset at him declaring w/o an agent. Great way for a player to gauge both his draft value + parts of his game that need work. Sure, it's annoying having to wait so long. But if Mal declares, has a great combine, and gets a clear indication he'd be picked in the teens? Good for him. I'd wish him nothing but the best.

If he declares AND hires an agent before the combine/workouts...then that would tell me something very different.
