    Women's Basketball Update

    Sorry if this has already been posted but it is ALWAYS great to see a GT signee mentioned as a first teamer in the USA Today All USA team. This was in the April 11, 2018 edition. http://usatodayhss.com/2018/all-usa-girls-basketball-first-team-elizabeth-balogun-hamilton-heights-christian...

    Bracket Challenge

    One can add that the staff is coaching them up and the players are buying into the Villanova system. As a result, they develop great team chemistry.

    Hardy Gone

    I want to say that having a college degree is a requirement. I seem to recall several years ago before Fox was hired at UGA, Dominique Wilkens expressed interest in the position however could not apply because he didn't have his degree.

    Where does College BB go from here

    While this makes a lot of sense, I wonder if there is too much money involved for the powers that be to consider this. Also, if you did this for basketball, it would have to be done for every other sport. We know why that would have to be.

    Senior Day vs Wake Forest

    Why? AD would start at 5 for the team next year, assuming he returns and continues to improve. I assume he is having fun and would want to return.

    Early season thoughts

    For those familiar with DeKalb County, this field is down the side street from Godfrey (formerly Panthersville) stadium.

    Arrests coming due to college bball kickbacks

    ESPN article: Stan Van Gundy rips NCAA, NBA's one-and-done rule http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/22579359/stan-van-gundy-shreds-ncaa-one-done-rule I must say that I agree with the premise of SVG's comments. Getting rid of the OAD is part of the solution though as many have said, that is...

    2018 Offensive unit projections

    I noticed that Boe Tufele was not on the list for guards. Was that an oversight or do you think he is not in the top 6?

    Arrests coming due to college bball kickbacks

    I wondered about this statement and decided to research it. They are the first to vacate a title but several runner-ups had to vacate their appearance and wins, some over a period of years. Interesting read about vacated Final Four appearances at the following link...

    2/14 - GT @ Wake Forest

    Mario is the director of player personnel for the team and hopefully a role model for the walk-ons. He got a scholarship by playing inspiring and tough defense. If any of the walk-ons are willing to do this, they could probably get some playing time.

    2/14 - GT @ Wake Forest

    I wonder if any of the walk-on players have demonstrated enough in practice to get a few minutes here and there to give someone a blow? I'm sure CJP has made them aware that their number may get called if they are needed.

    GT Hoops General Topics

    Peterson played at K-State while Pepper was coaching at Kansas. In fact, Pepper comes back once a year and sits with Peterson in his box. If you can open this, see this, "What ever happened to Pepper Rogers' article where this is mentioned...

    Mark Price Assistant Coach?

    I believe many of us agree in principle that there would not be a groundswell of support for Price to become HC but GT has been known to get 'emotional' when hiring head coaches by bringing one of their own back home. Pepper Rogers and Bill Curry are two great cases of this. I'd like to see us...

    Season pulse check

    Glad to see you are coming around with respect to Pastner being our coach. I was concerned that his first season set some 'false expectations' with some fans regarding the state of the rebuild. I believe his plan is a sustainable model that should ensure our programs will be a perennial...

    Women's Basketball Update

    Could this be a combination of theses talented young ladies having lack of interest in the majors we offer along with some not meeting admission requirements?

    10th coach

    It would be interesting if Joseph Bulovas is their kicker next season. He spurned us to walkon at Alabama.

    Perfect storm

    Did I hear they had 31 seniors and 20 juniors on this team? Yes, they are doing well in recruiting but I can see a dropoff next season.
