Listener of the Streets (6/7)

  1. That tweet is vague and encompasses so many possible scenarios so any recruit could be that "one" that it makes me think that Courtside has taken over the Women's soccer twitter account. I guess DM and he will get more specific.
  2. Each conference outside of the Big 5 should cede their conference tournament to anyone but the conference champion to grab more bids.
  3. absolutely nuts.
  4. I mean OSU had the worst athletics in the conference historically. That is their fault. How long till Dr Feser has an account at Billikens.com?
  5. Goodwin was able to make his season debut on Friday. 16 points on 4-9 from 3, 3 boards, and 2 steals in 15 minutes off the bench. His minutes will be limited for a couple more games and then he should be getting much more time.
  6. So silly. His minutes have gone down despite all the injury issues. It is a loss, but not significant.
  7. One of these years this program is going to break through and make a final four. Thought we would be getting more respect from the Tournament committee by this time. We were much better than an 8 seed. Eventually we will get that respect and we will make a breakthrough final four appearance.
  8. We aren't going to win games against good teams without multiple starters. Even with Avila we have obvious holes, suspect defense, rebounding, and no rim protection. Avila's offense can cover us from some of these. Without him we just aren't that good. We have Swope and Anya playing out of position. At this point get Avila healthy and hope to make an A10 tourney run. We aren't going to get big wins without him.
  9. Dotzler appears out for this game and beyond.
  10. Kennedy's 38-38 for the season is only 22 away from the record for most consecutive FTs in a season.
  11. Jimerson is at 1892. Claggett is at 1910. If Jimerson continues his hot start he will pass Claggs in the next game. While Jimerson has played 6 seasons, he is only at 135 games played. Douglas played 128 games, Gray 129, and Bonner 133 to set their records. Jimerson is only slightly ahead in those categories. No need for an asterisk next to Gibson's name.
  12. It helps that the Pacers/Fever play in the 6th smallest arena.
  13. Adama is a late round pick at best. He doesn't have nearly the accolades Avila has. Tyron Grant Foster with Grand Canyon is better than him. Avila is a once in a generation player.
  14. What goalposts did I move? I named several players who were better than Hughes that year. Hughes wasn't CUSA poty. He wasn't even 2nd. What position he was drafted in the Nba draft means nothing. Those players I named were better than him. You do a disservice to the rest of that team also. That was a good team. Larry didn't score 40 every night. Some games he didn't have ten or scored 14 on 30 shots. We beat some good teams when Larry stunk. Luck, Baniak, Walker, Cobbin were all solid players, far from scrubs. In Larry's year we were a 10 seed, barely made the tourney. You say that group wouldn't have been .500 without him? They were 1 game under next season with multiple starters injured, no real replacement for Hughes and a much tougher conference. Cincy was not loaded. They were top ten ranked 1 week the entire season. They returned 1 starter from the previous years team. Their leading scorer was Bobby Brannen. It was as close to a rebuilding year as Hughins came to. CUSA was way down that year. Only reason we were able to squeeze in as at large.
