A mushroom cloud follows an explosion, it doesn't herald one.

Nor did we "part ways" with Keith. I don't expect we will ever see him take the Court again, but he is still there now, on the bench.

Total Gob-shite.

What will he do if he leaves he's not good enough to play basketball for money anywhere - not yet at least

Meanwhile he has the opportunity to focus and get a $400,000 education that will certainly differentiate him from everybody else in the neighborHood

I would like to see him prove everybody wrong; perhaps outside factors may affect the potential for this - but I'm still rooting for him.

Forde knows jack, but that sure as he'll doesn't mean Keith is coming back

my thing w/Frazier coming back is simple, we've mostly been better w/o him on the floor for the 2 years he's been here. LB flat made a mistake giving Frazier Sterlings minutes early this year. Brown was a hoss last year and deserved to be on the floor. Our signature is defense and ball movement. Keith doesn't thrive at either of those. He certainly made strides this year in his game, but we're a better team when he sits behind Sterling

Agree but continuing to sit KF wouldn't sit well in Dallas graasroots circles

OR LB knew KF was struggling academically and wanted to give him PT just in case he had to head off to Europe.

Just a thought. I kind of trust a HOF coach to make the right decision. He has a history of doing what is best for his players, especially if they are putting the work in.

And LB by no means HAD to play Keith. Playing him was an LB decision, anyone who follows his history knows he wouldn't play a guy just to please the high school circuit.

Mudiay not coming here was the best thing to happen to SMU.

you don't play the wrong guy to make someone happy in a different gym who isn't really going to care anyway.
