  2. GT Hoops General Topics

    The law is the law. We have a well founded judicial system to handle criminal and civil complaints. Justice is imperfect and that has been recognized since the time of Socrates and Plato. But the justice system has been refined for over eons to be a sensitive, adaptable and balanced as can...
  3. GT Hoops General Topics

    I am confused about Yeti's line of thinking here: Having a relationship with a vendor = inappropriate relationship = sexual assault? Coaches can't have private relationships without it being inappropriate? Gt can potentially be humiliated by a relationship that Damon Stoudamire had 5 years...
  4. Damon Stoudamire Pre-Season Press Conference

    Thinking about this thought: Players enter the portal generally in April into May. They sign on to their new programs in May into late June. That is a process of only several weeks. That isn't a lot of time from contact to signing. With the high school kids, we are seeing official visits...
  5. Damon Stoudamire Pre-Season Press Conference

    "I don't have a lot of breakdown guys [meaning players who can break down the defender and create their own shots]," so he wants a lot of ball movement, and to get out in transition off of turnovers and defensive pressure, and maybe secondary transition off of the defensive boards. Him calling...
  6. Damon Stoudamire Pre-Season Press Conference

    Another interesting quote, comparing the association of winning the trenches in football to winning games, "Generally, if you don't turn the ball over and rebound on both sides of the floor, you have a good chance of winning. That is a formula I'd like to follow moving forward."
  7. Damon Stoudamire Pre-Season Press Conference

    When asked about the portal: "For me, I like Freshmen." Explains the heavy emphasis on high school recruits.
  8. 2023-24 Predictions

    This. Based on what can we make predictions? Out of 13 scholarship spots from last year's team, we return 4 guys. The roster has incurred a massive turnover. And a new staff is led by a coach who was last an NBA assistant. How will we play? I am full of questions with absolutely no...
  9. 2023-2024 ROSTER???

    Looks like the heights and Weights have been updated on the GTAA website. Miles Kelly is up to 180lbs. Still listed at 6'6" Deebo is down to 210lbs (from 218?) Claude shrunk. I think he was listed at 6'8" 236lbs but now he is listed at 6'7" 226lbs. Dowunoa up to 230lbs. Still 6'11" Kowacie...
  10. 2023-24 Season Countdown

    Another possibility is that there was pressure from social activist groups from outiside the Athletic Department placed on the program to not allow the player back. The kid may have been cancelled from without.
  11. 2023-2024 ROSTER???

    I believe that Souare may have been at the pictured photographs of practice. In the photo towards the end of the set, the one where Gapare is seen in the cast, a tall player that may be Souare is seen to the far right bending to pick up a basketball in black GT sweatpants and sneakers with...
  12. 2023-2024 ROSTER???

    On the GTAA website, they downloaded some still photos of practice. It looks like the team scrimmaged with a Green team vs a Back team. In one photo, the Green squad was gathered around Stoudamire and that squad was: Abrams, Terry, Coleman, Claude and Dowuona. The Black squad definitely had...
  13. 2023-24 Season Countdown

    Since Claude is a 5th year Senior, if it don't matter this season it sure won't matter the year after! ;-) Whether or not he is going to play "in" or "out" matters on defense, specifically, match-ups, rebounding, shot blocking and rotations. He's undersized for an ACC 5. Long players will go...
  14. 2023-24 Season Countdown

    I have lots of questions about next year's team but absolutely no answers. I need to see the team play. The pivotal question is whether or not CDS is one of those coaches who can get lot out of the talent he has. Teams seldomly perform simply as the summation of talent and skills. There are...
  15. How Transfer Portal and NIL has changed college recruiting

    Good article. Okay, so now the 4* prospects are not ready to impact in the college game as Freshmen, and they are not willing to accept that they will not be impact players in their Freshmen years, but why is that? I think that is the meat of the issue right there. Freshmen transfer because...

    We wish. GT's offensive difficulties are not due to spacing or scheme but talent. We've got three guys who are dynamic enough to create offensively. But they are not so good that they can cover lack of production from the rest of the roster.. Some guys have upside, but are not producing...

    You can have perfect spacing with all your players being perfectly stationary. It isn't only about spacing, it is also about moving and working. If you go back and watch some of those games from the mid-80s you will see that the game was played closer to the basket. There was a lot of...
  18. THWG: Ugag Game Thread

    I don't get trying to slow down Deivon Smith at all. That is his competitive advantage. He has 32 assists to 14 turnovers in 9 games (Sturdivant has 13 turnovers in way fewer minutes). The team has problems but turnovers is not one of them and playing too fast is not one of them. If...

    Moore >> Coleman. There. I've said it. Discuss :cool:
  20. Best of game

    Those are all very good points, but I would still like to see the line-up play to prove that you are right. For one thing, the team doesn't score well from the outside anyway. We are shooting 30% from 3. Deebo is at 33% and Terry is at 31% from three. So, less three point shooting might not...
