Default Durant Gone

Just read on orangebloods that insiders say he is leaving to the draft. Not surprised after having the best freshman season in history. Where do you think the horns are gonna be next year? Will augustin, abrams, and james be enough? Anyone else on orangebloods?

Money talks...

I still think he WANTS to stay, but is making the right decision. It's cool that he is finishing out his year at UT also.

Now we get to watch him more often!

I'm not surprised. I would have been shocked if he stayed.

It is to hard for me to do that. I love UT until they play A&M. I can do that since I am just a native Texan I can do that.


ND still owns them both

Let the begin.

It would have been dumb to stay another year, injury, an unlikely lousy season. I see him 1 or 2, depending on Oden, I personally believe Durants by far the better player but, team needs is a big thing in the League. I wish him well and i see Texas as the third best team next year behind KU and OSU (my team i have to do that). I think Augustin will contend for Big 12 player of the year. Oh yeah MAVS clinch the number one spot and Home Court throughout.

Bye Bye Mr. Durant!!!!

I think anyone in their right mind would've done the same thing! Money talks and bullshit walks!

The only reason he maybe had to stick around would've been to win a national championship and there was no way in hell that was gonna happen in the next 4 years!

Oh and I think I called this a few days ago when some of you Teas Sippers were talking **** about Gilespie leaving! Anyone else wanna call me a liar after predicting this a couple days ago?
