  1. Not the current version. But could he become a good passer and hit 3s at close to 30%s? Maybe with some development. I'm just hopeful as I like what I saw and see some potential. Ez no way, tiny heart syndrome, despite being young and getting all the benefits of being a college athlete with access to the Champions Center he can't be in shape to play more than 8 minutes without asking to come out of the game? Not a culture fit for a winning team.
  2. He does have a haircut that is to standard. I see that he was at Truman State prior could he be a McCollum target at Drake? I know our guys were waiting to meet with Coach Schertz and at least one who hit the portal told me he wants to stay. I guess we'll see if a few of them withdraw from the portal this week. My preference to stay is Jimmerson, SVB, Hughes, Thames, Medley. Add Avila, Conwell, Swope, Kent, and that is a team that can compete.
  3. I donated enough to cover a few pairs of Robbie Avila goggles. I'm basically a Chaifetz now. Probably private jet to the home opener (Honda Pilot).
  4. Us Billiken fans voted and we regret to inform you, we reject your application. Don't try to be a Billiken fan now that we have a real coach. Go bother the IUPUI board.
  5. NIL strategy, portal/HS/JUCO recruiting mix, scheduling philosophy, any familiarity A10 coaches teams, can his system work here? So many good questions
  6. Stu with the hard hitting journalism questions about sideline attire. Lame
  7. Wow they allowed fans to ask questions. Nice. Good question Mike "fan" regarding assistants
  8. Oh snap Sycamore board will melt down, he was in contact with May, Pestello since Arch Madness they hate that
  9. Hahahahah looking for a winner who has won non-stop. Probably shoulda used that metric last search
  10. Yeah trying to turn down the heat. Just shows you the pressure was turned up
  11. Now he's making it about him. I take back the good things I was posting earlier. May's kid sounds smarter than him
  12. Nice pat yourself on the back May. Yeah you work so hard you don't get much sleep.
  13. I think DOC is really smart and he used the term dribble purposely because this is a basketball discussion. Makes total sense to me. DOC carry on I don't know what they're problem is, its good stuff you post I like to read it two.
  14. I'll keep refreshing this thread waiting for all your connected insider information. By insider information I mean cut and paste from Wikipedia and vague guesses.
  15. I'm a reasonable person. I'm interested in SLU competing. The last few weeks from my perspective were good. I'm cautiously optimistic that perhaps the AD can improve. The reported internal issues are probably harder to mend but I'm not privy to those things. Like I've said before the AD gets credit for all things athletics good or bad despite the involvement of Billionaires. His job is to shape the outcome. Outcome of coaching hire is good. I like the social media marketing they've done the last couple days. I didn't mind the radio silence during the search that's standard. Hat tip, keep it up.
  16. No one ever coached stopped for a bit then coached again. Never ever happened. Man I wonder if someone connected to UK reached out to agents of coaches that have been to the final 4? Is one or two prominent boosters involved? Please give us some of your horoscope like "scoop" from all your middle school girls soccer connections.
  17. I've been thinking that perhaps May had a come to Jesus moment and perhaps he can try to be an effective AD. Jakobsze hire, firing Ford, hiring Schertz, new NIL site that works, the social media marketing of the last few days. All good. If the AD can continue to operate like this and handle day to day operations that's improvement. That's all I want. TV market isn't a concern anymore. It's viewers, streamers. We know a good SLU team draws fans, with increased marketing , social media engagement that shows we are a draw. If we can do it perhaps BE becomes a possibility.
  18. I bet they reached a deal like Texas and Marquette on Shaka. So if they did reach a deal that probably means UK has the replacement lined up. Pitino is still kicking. But I wonder who they want? Oats? Beard? Pearl? Jay Wright comes back?
  19. I care and I read your posts.
  20. We know Calipari can recruit. The problem was college basketball changed and teams got older with the portal so winning with a bunch of one and dones was harder. I think he realizes that now, 2 years too late. He told UK fans basically "I have a plan". They didn't have the will to pay $33mil buyout but it was so toxic. He needed to jump. If he recruits transfers at the same high level he got HS kids he can win. Arkansas will pay NIL. If he changes he can win again.
  21. You do and that's all that matters to me. Thanks DOC.
