He got hit by a car.

Almost certainly was. What were they shooting at? Bullets had to go through 4 lanes of busy traffic, a busy parking lot, another 2 lanes of traffic and another parking lot to get to the field. Its possible but unlikely. Long way for stray bullets to travel in a crowded urban area. Players clearly heard lots of loud shots, again over heavy traffic, multiple buildings in the way. Seems unlikely.

Do a google earth search on the area. How were the shots fired from the KFC parking lot? 4 lanes of traffic, a huge parking lot, a Mcdonalds are all in between the KFC and the Temple Field. Hard to believe they were shot from over there unless the shooter was on the roof of the KFC.

Reports are out that Gonzaga has joined the new Pac 12. Reports are also out saying they aren't joining the new Pac 12.

Collins was cut late Friday by the Warriors. Golden St cut Collins, Javan Johnson, and Donta Scott. They also signed Blake Hinson, who was previously one of the 2 way players that Jordan Goodwin was set to compete with on the Lakers. Collins will not be joining the Warriors training camp. Another interesting wrinkle to these contracts the NBA now allows for the G League bonuses to be negotiated. While a player can earn a bonus of 78k, many players have been forced to negotiate a smaller amount. A G league role player like Yuri may not be able to get that whole bonus. His teammate Scott has been confirmed that he is only getting a 50k bonus.

How can we get John Stamos to be our GM?

The Lakers released Blake Hinson today, one of their 2 way deal players. They have signed Christian Koloko to replace him. Koloko was a 2nd round pick in 22 who put up good per minute numbers for the Raptors his first season. He was sidelined with a serious blood clot issue last year but has been given the go ahead to play again. The Lakers plan to use him in their big man rotation to start the season until Christian Wood comes back.

The Warriors are rounding out their Training Camp roster. Collins is the 19th player signed to the team. He will most likely have an exhibit 10 deal associated with this move so he will get a bonus if he stays with their G League squad. Good chance for Collins to get some run in training camp and pre season and get a nice payday for a couple weeks.

I believe he assumed since the Billikens also host games on Bally's that they would be leaving the network as well. Not sure where our games will be aired.

Anyone know what this means? I'll even accept a courtside essay explaining it.

Tony Irons just took over as Head Coach there. Not sure who is on the roster but there will be lots of area talent.

Does this mean that horrible girl won't be calling the games this year. If so ++.

Is a greybear better or worse than a werewolf?

I won't watch these, not because I don't like Chris May (True) but because he's not any good at this stuff. There are probably dozens of SLU students who would love the experience of hosting this who would do a much better job.
