  1. 11/10 MBB vs. UNF

    What? The defensive thing had nothing to do with the CDS hire part. Otherwise, my point isn't hurt at all that he had a losing record and never took Pacific to the NCAAT. That was aimed directly at blaming the fans for being apathetic. And it isn't even about whether he did a good job at...
  2. 11/10 MBB vs. UNF

    What is this nonsense? We have been to one NCAAT since 2010, and we hired a coach with a losing record who had never taken a team to the NCAAT. Do you expect fans to show up unconditionally? GT has given nothing for the fans to be excited about and this game just furthers that. Don't blame...
  3. 2024-25 season predictions.

    My prediction is with the lineups that we are likely to see we will struggle defensively and rebounding, but should be able to put forth a pretty good offense. Overall the record will be how well does our strength outpace, or get outpaced by, our weaknesses. IMO the tools are there for an...
  4. 2024 offseason

    I agree that drtg isn't the be all end all, and in general defensive stats aren't the best. But I'm not sure the eyeball test is actually reliable based on recent history here. Anyways, I wouldn't bother comparing the raw numbers across different teams, as I don't think Baye and McCollum are...
  5. 2024 offseason

    As a comparison. Prior to coming to GT Dowuona averaged 4.1/4.1 in 24.5 mpg as a sophomore for an NCSU team that went 4-16 in conference. The next year he averaged 1.7/1.4 in 10.9 mpg for an improved NCSU team (going 12-8 in conference). Everything about his time at NCSU pointed to him not...
  6. NIL for Buzz

    I mean, I'm all for compensating them, and I believe to some degree they already are at many places, but it wouldn't be NIL. It isn't the student's name, image, or likeness that they would be profiting from by being in a complete body costume with a different name. '
  7. My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    Considering they were starters last year I think it's safe to slot George, Reeves, and Ndongo starters. Based on last year, I'd be surprised if we started Ndongo at the 5 so I would guess one of the centers starts even if it's for smaller amounts of time. IMO Onwuchekwa is the most likely. If...
  8. Mutombo Transfers to GT

    He is considering Baye a 4, which I think most people do. More broadly our weakest spot is our frontcourt player alongside Baye however you want to label it.
  9. Mutombo Transfers to GT

    To me taking him is a sign we believe we are going to make due with the freshmen carrying the majority of the load at the 5 when Baye isn't playing there.
  10. I'm starting to hate FSU fans.

    For lobbying for an undefeated acc team to be left out in favor of one loss teams from a conference, or about to join a conference, that his employer has significant interest in. Then trying to spin it like it should be because of a quarterback that got hurt after he started pushing for it to...
  11. I'm starting to hate FSU fans.

    FSU fans suck. But Herbstreit is an *** for what he did and deserves to catch hell for it.
  12. Who is more likely to be drafted: Kelly or Ndongo?

    Is it any different than when you posted?
  13. Who is more likely to be drafted: Kelly or Ndongo?

    As a sophomore Kelly broke out and had a great season and tested the waters to get feedback on what he needed to do to make the NBA. Last year we changed coaches and by pretty much any way you look at it he didn't improve his chances of making the nba last year. Whether you think that is...
  14. My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    It's not an 80s mindset to consider traditional positions. It's a matter of convivence where the format has built in expectations of things often undervalued or outright ignored when fans try to take a "positionless" view of evaluating a roster such as defense and rebounding. It's easier to...
  15. My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    Because his production didn't really warrant it compared to his teammates. His shooting numbers weren't bad by any stretch but they were low compared to the other rotation players. For example he shot .376 from 3 which looks good. But it was last out of the players who were usually on the...
  16. My way too early, possibly problematic look at potential GT Hoops roster management

    Bit surprised by Gapare entering but not overly heartbroken about it. He had raw athleticism but it never really translated into consistent performance either here or at UMass. Does open up a scholarship to take a big even if we take mccullum or pippin.
  17. Transfers out

    Are you confusing OU for Oklahoma State?
  18. Bracketology 2024

    It's not an odd interval. Your point was that they were some great example of a team that was misevaluated because of a disproportionate emphasis on the early season non con schedule. The point I made was that even after the conclusion of their conference schedule, they still weren't anywhere...
  19. Bracketology 2024

    How is a team that loses 10 of it's last 14 a cautionary tale about not overweighing early season games? Yes, they are on a tremendous run. And if they had lost any of the 5 games in the ACCT they wouldn't be in the NCAAT, and it wouldn't be because of the early season losses. It'd be because...
