I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. I would not be surprised if Sadiq is the target and Licht told Evans this one evening over bourbon & cigars, thus letting Evans know he might want to go elsewhere to ensure he gets lots of targets.

Unlikely scenario Willie, Licht drinks beer.

BA’s Red Pen, I think I’ve seen him with a brown drink in his hand or heard him speak of having whiskey or scotch. Beer drinkers do occasionally go slumming with liquor. I don’t don’t but many other beer drinkers do.
Seriously though, I know Evans and Licht were tight. It stands to reason that a friend would let his pal know his targets might decrease. I’ve been in situations where I had to let a friend/subordinate know some behind the scenes management plans. To me, the friendship came first.

Nice convo guys.
On the 1st round draft pick of a guard……
Imo Licht has picked guys contrary to everyone’s projections and he prides himself on finding OLine guys. So it’s not so far out there that he would pick a guard in the 1st round – if Cody’s full recovery is questionable….. how is his rehab going? Does anyone know?

evans left because of drafting emeka. could have used a defensive starter with that pick plus lost evans . may have hurt a playoff spot also

last years puck was a bit of a double whammy still littered with defensive needs and evans may still be on the team
