  1. Billiken state? Billikens Technical? You have a lawn here?
  2. Wow. It is always such a gut punch for recruits when they report to campus and realize there is more than one Manhattan.
  3. There’s something funny there, I’ve been trying to find it, but it gets too complicated. I’m just going to accept defeat on this one.
  4. Is it open now? They must be working on something special. My guess: life size animatronic Billiken statues.
  5. There’s no denying it, you do have a talent for stating the obvious.
  6. Coach Ford is just getting the players fired up for different things. Coach speak. I just don’t think he is actually stressing about replacing Nesbitt’s 4 rebounds per game.
  7. I believe you meant: “Hands [a] Finnish textbook.”
  8. No one knows if he was given anything to stay. We do not know if the offer just got pulled by T. I assume at least that he took a pay cut to stay here. That wasn’t enough for Pujols, so Yuri>Pujols, and since we love Pujols now, Yuri is guaranteed to come back to your love circle someday.
  9. It’s clear from this video that no one missed a shot the entire open practice.
  10. He probably means, 2-6 years, not 1-2. Snippet quotes are not perfect things.
  11. Did Will Bailey have any involvement in setting the style of play before he left? Will he take on that role now?
  12. Big Blue works for Kentucky. I am not sure why we are questioning the logic of the best recruiter in school history. But sure, you guys probably know what you are talking about.
  13. That is interesting. I actually really like it. It sends simple messaging.
  14. I don’t see this affecting anything. The Rashad Williams of the world can breathe a sigh of relief. That is probably a good thing.
  15. It is sad that Netflix is looking to have an Ad supported business, and has seemingly unlimited funds, and the Pac12, B12, and ACC could be blown up and turned into a new conference with a new media deal, and it seems like nothing is connecting these dots together. edit: The above says that it is sad Netflix isn’t doing this.
  16. I read somewhere that the first round was 3 million people per game. So, the first round is 96 Million. Even if half the viewers watched all of the games, that is nearly 50 million. As to the greater issue, if the blue bloods and P5 want to start a separate tournament with just those big conferences, then ok, I won’t watch it. I doubt anyone who went to a smaller program will. That is a massive amount of the population. It could backfire on them. If the other 200 programs kept the Tournament, it could easily become the thing that takes center stage every year, and the tables could completely turn on the big programs. We will see.
  17. It is a great stat and it can tell a lot, but it can also be misleading. Per 40, Jones would have been roasted in D. He also struggled to drive on people in the A10. Turnovers could have become an issue. Good teams would have keyed on it and it might have hurt his linear output. Greater shooter, so he had that as a major upside. Thatch as a point guard is a lot like Goodwin, just not as polished. Good at driving and putting his defender on the defensive and making a pass to a designated big guy, or a basic kick out. He also has that pseudo point-forward that Goodwin brought. He needs other ball handlers around him to help, but I think he showed enough last year that TF will try to build upon it.
  18. Second on the team in Assists per game. What?
  19. He was the best backup PG during the second half of this past season. It especially showed during the last game when Yuri was out. If you define PG as the person who sets up a play and works to get someone a good shot. Thatch struggles against tough defense getting the ball up the court, but that is the same as almost everyone on the roster.
  20. Thatch must just feel like chopped liver with the way this board chirps about backup PG.
  21. That is exactly what a 3 star recruit would want us to believe.
  22. It is horrible, but posting that in this thread will probably give someone a heart attack about Goodwin.
