Rumors about Hall? You can guess what they might be....

1. DNP today. Ankle....could be true. High Probability.

2. Some other school called to offer him double and he doesn't want to play here anymore so he quit the team. Also high probability.

If #2 is true, I don't see how its a good look to quit on your team. I don't think Hall would do that but its possible he is getting bad advice too.

Just hope our NIL is smart enough to do July to July payments.
Keyshawn was in civvies before the game, but was on the court at the top of the key handing out the ball to teammates that were warming up. Somewhat more involved than Ronnie who was chatting with a few others not warming up. Argues for #1.

Reading between the lines of Tony’s postgame and he’s basically telling everyone to put the pieces together…I’m doubting it’s his ankle.

Why would a player stop playing during a season if another school was after him? Is it like a football player going to the NFL that sits out a bowl game? This is a depressing conversation.

Are we saying players can quit mid season b.c they got a better NIL deal for next year at a different school? What kind of bs is this? IF this is the new landscape of college bball then, we might as well close it up and learn Cricket.

We're now just one game ahead of Fordham for a spot in the PIG and they hold the tie breaker over us.

I don't have facebook. What did Tony say?

You will not see Hall wearing a Mason jersey ever again. Take it to the bank.
And people wonder why I hate the NIL. The mere thought of college kids getting paid massive dollars when they have no job skills is sickening. If you are correct I can guarantee one thing, he'll never suit up in an NBA uniform.

If he did quit, I'm surprised Tony let him on the bench.
If Tony knows/knew and allowed him to be on the bench and made up some bs about an ankle injury I'd be even more angry and disappointed with Tony. Straw? Meet camels back.

Then pull his scholarship tomorrow.

IF he did indeed take another NIL offer, wouldn’t that be some kind of tampering if it happened during the season?
I get exploring options, but shouldn't all this "freedom" come with the stipulation you've gotta play out the full season for the team you belong to currently.

For sure. Tony said he was hurt in practice. Was he protecting Key?
But Tony sure looked POed. That's not a "I'm protecting the kid look."
And he said he had a lot on his mind.
All this is really weird. Sorry, I'm rambling.

No. Because a dumbass judge said he could see no harm in letting this happen.

I wonder if a team will have to forfeit a season because midway through 6 or 7 players just up and quit because they got NIL deals to go somewhere else?
