I think the answer to that is no.

So I think you could even remove Floyd Badunga from this equation.

Can Kansas afford to miss on Tyron Stokes?

Just point blank.

And I think the answer to that is probably not.

Again, just talent-wise in the portal, I'm not sure if you're finding someone as good as Tyron Stokes.

Yeah, and so, all right, so you can say – let's just play this game.

Like David Punch, for example.

Like I think he – his number is like three to three and a half million.

You know, okay, good player, helpful.

Is he the starting power forward on a Final Four team?

That's the question you have, and I think with Tyron, you're looking at him probably playing the three, mostly sliding to the four a little bit.

Who are you going to find in the portal for that in the range of a million around four?

You're just really going to be looking at scraps, and at this point, by the time the Stokes thing plays out in the next week to ten days, who knows, maybe even two weeks, I'm not really going to put a timetable on it, but

the portal could be kind of starting to dry up a little bit.

And then you're looking at the guys who maybe are testing the NBA draft waters.

Could they come back?

And then that's a whole different pool.

And then you're talking about kind of a Darian Williams situation from last year where, you know, all of a sudden teams get desperate because they do need it.

And then the price goes up and you're paying more than you would have.
