From the most recent Nic interview today:

Q: What's it like playing point gaurd for Larry Brown?

NM: [laughs] Stressful, it's a hard job, but I wouldn't change it for the world. Because every day is a new experience. He wants the best for me. And to have someone like that in your life... you have to respect him.

Why would Nic take a step down to the BIG?

I'd be shocked if Nic leaves for another program after this season, but Sed and Shake are going to be a phenomenal backcourt for us. There would be some definite growing pains, though.

I wonder if little Ricky got a trickle down his leg when the NCAA made public its investigation.

Would Nic be able to wait to decide on transferring until after the "punishment" is announced?

They may be saving a scholarship for NCAA reasons.

From what I know, lil Ricky was first in on Nic, then came IU. That said, Crean is in trouble. Then came Coach Cal. Its a $hitshow behind the scenes

I have no earthly idea. Just know he's been contacted a variety of ways by coaches, claiming SMU is going to get blasted by the NCAA. Basically, come play your last year in a big conference and go to the tourney.

Our staff knows whats up. I'm sure they are doing what they can to set Nic straight

Does he have to decide before the NCAA ruling or can he wait?
