Well we can officially call bullsh*t to Bell wanting to play closer to home. Birmingham to Louisville isn’t much closer than Milwaukee is. Hopefully those family issues aren’t serious since he won’t play a meaningful game until November of 2019. For pity's sake. The kid wasn't moving to something, he was getting away from something. He certainly wasn't coy about it. Aiming indignance at players who decide they have no choice but to leave a bad situation is terribly misplaced. Those college kids sure as hell didn't cause our problems.

I'm sick of this.
I will not wish him best of luck not will I wish him injury
But I'm going to be a bitter baby and hope he rides the pine and they stink in the b10 and fail to make the tournament.

I don't know him, so I really could care less. Other than I like the water cooler talk. He is not on my team anymore.

Wow! You guys need to get over it. This program is dead until it rids itself of its chancellor and athletics director. That's the hard, cold reality. Blaming the kids is like blaming the leper for the leprosy!

Yeah we know.
Braun needs to go. Move on. Get over it.
I don't like her for what she's done but man do some of you have nothing better to talk about.
They left, unless you hear it from anyone of them why they left we can't say it's Braun. It could be because PB.
The program is dead to you then it's dead...to you.
They left, good bye don't let the door hot ya on the way out

Hopefully Jeter does more for Brock in Minnesota than he did for JJ in Vegas.

They left, good bye don't let the door hot ya on the way out This is essentially my philosophy for any player who leaves any of my teams. I don't hold ill will against them but if it doesn't work out at their new destination, I don't feel bad for them either.

Yes the team is probably going to suck next year. Will that prevent me from covering the home games? No. Will I stop supporting the University? No. I';m a 2006 grad, and I've stuck with the team through thick and thin. I'm not stopping now. this next season will be a true test of what Baldwin is made of, as a coach. if he gets us anything over double digit wins, my thinking is he should get some Coach of the Year votes. I'll miss watching Stull and Nze play, but in the glass half full scenario, we now have lots of opportunity for new players to step up. Kids, hopefully, who will help us move in the right direction.

Very disappointed in the news. My 9 year old son and I are season ticket holders. The program was on the upswing, and the food, giveaways, etc. at home games were improving as well. Now I'm not sure if I want to keep season tickets. Definitely something fishy going on when your top 5 players leave, 2 years after your top 3 players leave. And we lost Dittmer and more recruits I hear. (P.S. still sore about them adding a mandatory donation to the Panther Fund, for the premium season ticket seats. Almost doubling the cost. For this reason I had to downgrade seats. It's like they are trying to drop the attendance!) Ya, I'm in the Panther Fund Donation Section. The prices are great when you compare it to the rest of sporting events you can do in the city. I have to do some soul searching all this summer, so I don't rush to judgement. All else fails, the loge seats start at $75. There's room for you up in 323 with the rest of us rabble rousers!

That's the $185 section you high rollers! I love hearing you guys and sometimes gals! The wife and I will in the building. The thought of getting two seats at $75 each sounds really good. Saving $430 when it's easy to just move down and around is not going to cause anyone harm until the crowds come back. Whenever that will be.
