  1. You should have been in blue but getting Parker back will help this team. We desperately need someone who can create a shot. That said this game was lost on defense.
  2. I don’t know how much college basketball you watch besides the Billikens but I see it almost every night including the top teams. It is an effective way of getting people moving instead of just standing.
  3. I agree with you but it turned out to be a good thing. If he had a timeout TJ never would have gotten the ball.
  4. TJ is probably our 3rd best scoring option behind Jimmer and Parker. He is now playing the 4. I believe he only took 2 shots while playing the 4. His heroics all came at the 5. Ford needs to figure out how to get him involved at the 4 spot. Seemed to me he basically just stood in the corner.
  5. I have never seen a game when a team had zero turnovers. Almost seems if you are playing against nobody someone would throw a ball away.
  6. I am sure Courtside will give us the inside but maybe she didn’t like being downgraded from being the number one option.
  7. I am not questioning this but it was reported that May was part of the lobbying . Seems like somewhat of a contradiction.
  8. What makes you say we haven't tried to take advantage of the state NIL laws?
  9. No KD didn't hurt his minutes. Some wierd +- numbers in that game.
  10. For what its worth I walked out with Larry senior,asked him about Junior. He said he will be fine. Not sure what else he could say but he didn’t seem concerned.
  11. And there were plenty who were happy with it at the time. I believe it is revisionist history that there was an outcry at the time. May had no choice. Not all our choices in life turn out to be correct. If you want to go back and show me your posts to the contrary I will at least concede to you.
  12. While I agree with your criteria it’s all arbitrary. What’s the justification for limiting multiple transfers. The grad transfer rule is also a con job. If someone has true statistics on how many grad transfers are getting legit grad degrees I would like to see it. Either you can legally restrict transfers or you can’t. While I don’t like it a player has the freedom of free transfers or they can be restricted. My guess is the courts would say free transfers
  13. Everytime I ran into George and it was fairly frequently all he wanted to do was talk about Billiken Basketball.
  14. Don't you think if this was a causeable reason for firing it would have to have been after the 20-21 season?
  15. Not rehiring someone is the same as firing. Semantics. Biondi fired Rich Grawer and took a lot of crap for it so No I don’t think he was or wanted to be involved with Crews. And no I don’t believe naming Crews was somehow paying homage to Rick. Rick was well respected but we’re not talking John Wooden here. Someone with better skills then me should go back and see what this board was saying. My memory says the board was saying what’s taking May so long.
  16. I am not sure where you got the Biondi story. Never heard anything like this. Crews was national coach of the year. How do you not hire him? May had no choice. You don’t essentially fire the national coach of the year.
  17. I know this is easier said then done but we need to change our offense when Bruce is in the game. He should not be positioned at the top of the key handling the ball. He needs to be on the low post hopefully taking up space and a defender or two. Ford has build his offense on TJ at the key hopefully opening up the floor. I think TJ has done a good job of this but doesn't work with Bruce.
  18. While I don’t necessarily agree with it Bruce got his fourth foul at the eight minute mark. I said to my wife keep him in. Let him foul out.
  19. Correct. It was spelled out in the paper this morning.
  20. “Nary a one has starters talent “. I am glad you came around to say Giibbie could and would start in a lot of places.
  21. To my knowledge all athletes can eat there. That was certainly part of the sales pitch.
