Good for Jaden. He’ll get outside counsel on areas where he needs to improve, probably underscoring things he’s heard from his Spartan coaches. And if he somehow hears things that indicate he should go now, then go get paid. Selfishly, I’d love him back, but he’s a Spartan for life, regardless.

Not unexpected.

He has 10 days after the Combine to return.

I want him back so bad. He's got an NBA future, but I want at least one more year. Very special potential brewing for the upcoming year, but he's a big part of that. Highest ceiling of anyone on the team, IMO.

Don't know about the ceiling statement (I bet Kohler could become something special, big has the moves)... I do agree Akins D and athleticism will shine next year...

I'm not going to lie. This is the worst thing that's happened to me all week, and that includes Tuesday when my appendix burst and I was rushed to the hospital but the ambulance crashed into an interstate bridge abutment and I flew out the back door on a stretcher and was run over by a fertilizer spreader and died in the ditch with the smell of shit in my nose.

Per GreenWay, he declared because of minutes.

Also, dibs on Pervis Muldoon’s rock collection and lawn equipment. That reminds me, I still have Nigel’s chainsaw from that time we thought he passed and took his stuff.

I have no idea how any of this works either Wags. But I don't think either AJ or Jaden will be playing in the NBA next year

I guess what surprises me is that Izzo didn't have a heart to heart with him and let him know he might not be invited. I have to believe Izzo pretty much knows exactly who is going to be invited and who isn't. Or could name 80-90% of the invitees. Nigel knows how this stuff works. I don't get it. And what,exactly do the scouts see in Jett Howard that he's s first round pick? I don't get it.

They are not on the list. Maybe they removed their names from the draft. Kind of seems like a leaked list.

It's possible to get drafted without attending the Combine, but very unlikely.

I think 7 guys from the G League Combine were then invited to the NBA Combine last year. So, Joey might have a shot at that if he lights it up from 3.

Hopefully Hoggard and Akins are motivated from being slighted.

Still under his NIL deal, I would guess, needing to meet his tweet quota. Thus us verbatim what other UWM athletes tweet out periodically.

My thoughts exactly. Just thought the wording was interesting given his draft status.
