Recruit (1/7)

  1. If we're going that route, that gentleman who used to coach at Indiana wouldn't be a bad choice. I think BustedDreams is referencing Dan Dakich...Sampson's replacement. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Dakich
  2. A lot of close basketball on television over the weekend/past several days...and a lot of people standing toward the close of the game. It seems that many of the posts on this board are about bringing relevance and legitimacy to the program. Coach, facilities, conference/national success, etc. No doubt, atmosphere and fan participation play a role in this. And I'm certain fan participation, or lack there of, is an issue at most of the 329 DI schools. I'm not pointing fingers and telling people when to stand (although participation during the announcement of the starting line-up is laughable), or for that matter, insist they stand at all. But don't insult me for standing in the last minute and a half in the game, when a strong contingent of the lower bowl is standing. Kwamain was begging for people to get out of their seats.
  3. Attendance is a step in the right direction, but the atmosphere continually disappoints. With under two minutes I stood up to cheer and was yelled at and called an by an approximate '65 alumnus. I finished out the game on my feet.
  4. "When" he gets manhandled. RLs success last year was a product of Conklin's hard work. We need RL to be a man in the paint....not a scared, streaky three point shooter. His sloppy play and poor defense cost more than he can make up on the other end of the ball.
  5. Agreed re Manning. The best thing we can do is bench RL. He's terribly soft and slow in the post and we don't need his 3 point shot. We have plenty of fire power beyond the arc. CR and JM should get all the minutes in the low post.
