  1. Why do you even argue with him anymore? He doesn't know basketball and just says these things to get a reaction. Jacobsen was trash but we could absolutely use Morrow. We've been down this road like 100 times now.
  2. some (a lot) of you guys need to step back off the ledge and realize what you're saying. If you're going to get this worked up following this stuff then do yourselves a favor and don't follow it. Hell even in my college choice I was accepted to Nebraska and put down the deposit to go to UNL in November. I got into Clemson and UConn later on in May after I had already set a date for my orientation for UNL. Toured those two and wound up choosing to go to UConn instead of UNL. You make the best decision for YOU. This is a life altering event for these kids and if you can't get that then I politely suggest just waiting for kids to sign and celebrating that instead.
  3. Get your Penn State votes in while you still have time!
  4. Just came here to post this. What a horrendous stat. I pointed it out during the Creighton game but this team needs to get to the rim/line more. We don’t shoot well enough from outside to rely on that consistently and win.
  5. right but if a school doesn't want to offer a position on a football roster to a kid then the whole point is moot. The financial aid is still awarded but its not necessarily football related right?
  6. probably because 1. with the early signing period they're totally unnecessary and 2. they don't really mean anything (see Stringfellow, Damore'ea)
  7. which is why you don't start Roby at the 5. People tend to confuse "starting lineup" with "most effective/best lineup". I also think you'll start to see more 1-3-1 as the season progresses. We seem to defend really well in it, the biggest challenge is just finding someone to block out for rebounding purposes (but we tend to suck at that in man so the difference may be negligible).
  8. I've referenced this before but this is absolutely correct. Daniel Hamilton was a top 50 or so kid in high school basketball that committed to UConn and for whatever reason didn't want to sign a LOI. Never wound up signing one and enrolled as normal and on scholarship. The LOI is really just a contract that binds the school and the player to the scholarship and standards associated with it but if you're a top level kid there isn't an overly huge need to sign one as you will always have a scholarship if you want one.
  9. Jordy is horrendous considering the tools he has. He lacks the aggression necessary offensively to really get the job done on a consistent basis (wayyyyy too many finesse layups instead of going up and being aggressive). He also is consistently in the wrong place to gather rebounds on both ends of the floor and can't guard a soul when pulled away from the basket. For his physical size he doesn't really bring much of an imposing presence, which is disappointing. I agree that playing small is our best chance here. It's also why Miles is starting to recruit a different type of big- as noted by Heiman and Thamba (HUGE need). Okeke at least defensively seems to be in the right place and is adjusting well to this level of play. Offensively he's a complete liability as well. Playing Roby/Copeland at the 4/5 is probably our best bet going forward. Miles alluded to this in the Kansas postgame presser. Think you'll see starting lineups looking like... Watson Taylor Palmer Copeland Okeke with crunch time lineups looking like: Watson Gill/Taylor Palmer Copeland Roby That crunch time lineup is really really hard to guard. I also think going forward you'll see a guy like Allen get increased minutes and an increased role on the team while Tshimanga will be less of a presence going forward. Key reserves (i.e. > 10 minutes a game) going forward will be: Gill Allen Roby Jordy as needed
  10. He’s my most wanted now that Martinez and Williams are in the fold

  12. sounds like the Tennessee visit went really well for him and its probably a matter of time before he commits there.
