Didnt we figure this when he "got injured" and couldnt finish the season?
He is a good player and i would have beem fine with him if he came back but i am not loosing any sleep with him gone.

Good for him, will be cool to see how he does with real coaching and development.
Congrats, I only saw you live once as a freshman.
And your team was down 30 points by halftime to AFA at home.

I like this move for DJ. He should go maximize his NIL payout. Career earnings in basketball end up being a brief moment in time for many. I am grateful he chose to stay home and be a Rebel. Looking forward to another Dedan donning the scarlet and grey in 30 years.
Called that one to play out exactly as it played out a couple of weeks before the actual, cough, cough, injury.
Spare me talks of loyalty, of legends. It’s bullshit.

Btw, I don’t blame him. I just don’t like it. He’s not a pro, his college NIL will be more annually than his overseas money. He has to capitalize when he can.
It was obvious that half of the UNLV team had already quit and were all looking at fake injuries so that they could continue to get their NIL money while doing nothing!
They should fix this sort of thing in the future. If you're being paid, you're a pro. If you're actually injured, that's one thing, but if you choose to sit out, you should not receive any money for those games that you've chosen not to play.
Yep he's going to get paid a lot of money, however, Kansas is not the only school interested...think SEC!
As little as I have watch UNLV basketball games the last few years after going to their games for decades, the loss of Dedan means zilch to me!
I don’t get how DJ turns into the problem child by so many in the know on rebelnet? There were more people who liked Katin Rheinhardt around here than DJ!
Dedan Jr was not the problem, the former coach was and I’m so glad he is gone now, no more Mr nice guy or his lame attempts to run the hoops program. And as for being a nice guy, who cares, he wasn’t running for homecoming king! Lol
Hallelujah Kruger ball is dead around here!

Short memories + apathy + general regret he was wasted.. this season he was leading scorer, but missed some big time opportunities that cost the game in the clutch moments. Coaching definitely didn't do him any favors. Best PG we've had here in decades, the type of PG we wanted for years and our coach tried to turn him into the hero baller that he had leaned on his first 2 seasons instead of building a better team around him to allow him to be the PG he is...
I wish him well and thank him for staying home for his first 2 years. I wish we could've surrounded him with a more capable team because he will be a great piece for a team missing a point guard. Make your money!
There’s not a single thing about this basketball program that needs to stick around. The game has changed and we’ve been stuck in neutral for 15 years. It’s time to invest in a leader who isn’t interested in resurrecting the past, but instead build this thing the right way.
Yes and no... you're not really starting from scratch with the portal. The right hire can bring an entire core with him to help quickly build a culture.
