    “Branding” and “Marketing” ...

    Would one of you gold and white thumpers (Supersize, Gold1, etc) please visit the bookstore and raise hell, because the school colors in there are gray and navy. I went in there yesterday before the bball game to get new GT shirts for my wife, daughter and son and I left (pissed off) with 1...

    This thread is kinda crazy. Naming potential hypothetical replacements mid-season in Pastner's 3rd season? I don't know if Pastner will take us back to relevance or not, and I am not entirely thrilled about some of his coaching tendencies, but this is still a young team and we haven't even...

    KSU game

    I actually thought Wright had a nice game except for the time he tried to dribble behind his back and lost the ball out of bounds. If he would play within himself, he could be a major contributor.

    Points, rebounds and turnovers? lol

    KSU game

    Alvarado had a strong start today to set the tone for the game, which was nice to see after his poor game last time out and how down he was about it afterwards. The kid is a winner. Then after a little lull, the rest of the team came on strong and I thought we put together a very solid first...

    Right on cue... AD got 19 minutes today and had a really impressive stat line... 7/7 from the floor, 2/3 free throws, 16 points, 8 boards, 2 blocked shots, only 2 fouls, only 1 turnover, and 3 assists for good measure. His footwork on his post moves to get open shots in the low post was really...

    I would like to see some of that, but even without it, why can't AD get on the court? Banks has been trending up towards 35 minutes per game, and last game against ugag, he looked gassed at the end of the 2nd half.

    The coaches (maybe Reveno) seemed to work wonders with AD last year. He could barely put one foot in front of the other at the beginning of the season and by the end of the season he had some nearly unstoppable moves in the low post. I have no idea what has happened to all of that previous...

    Quick Lane Bowl Postgame Discussion

    This is how I have felt for most of this season. I have wanted PJ and the flexbone option gone for several seasons, but this season in particular, we didn't really run much triple option or anything else. We did not run a legit offense this season. Even when it was successful (Louisville and...

    Paul Johnson effect on Quick Lane Bowl Ratings

    A terrible football game, especially by GT, between two bad football teams. What do you really expect ESPN to do about it? Even the refs mailed it in on this game. That out of bounds call on the long Gophers touchdown pass was a complete botch job.

    Alvarado’s Determination

    Slugboy, nice stats. Thanks for posting. The 3 pt stats indicate that we only have one good 3 pt shooter (Alston), but he is getting limited attempts, so who knows if he is really a 50% 3 pt shooter (probably not). If he is, then I say he should be taking 6-8 3's per game, and we should be...

    UGA Game Thread: Redemption Road ...

    I got 4 giant XS size season ticket shirts and was pissed about it also. I've also caught 2 shirts thrown out during the game by the cheerleaders... same problem... massive sizing. I wouldn't put this on our front office though, other than signing Adidas. Nike shirts would have fit just fine :)

    Alvarado’s Determination

    He may not be Jason Kidd, but how can you say he is hurting us? He is the cog that makes this machine go. Without Jose, this team would struggle to score 30 points per game. When he sits, the team usually struggles to do anything. I do wish he could get others more involved and up his...

    Alvarado’s Determination

    I like Banks as a player also. He is a good rim protector, as evidenced by his 2.4 blocks per game (top 30 nationally), and I think he is a good on ball defender when he doesn't get pulled too far from the basket. He has nice offensive game when he commits to it, and he passes well in traffic...

    p.p.s LOL there is a quote from Tony Bennett on the NOAH website. Maybe uva has the skunk works version instead of us.

    Fire CJP + State of the Program

    p.s. Out of curiosity I just googled NOAH basketball, and it appears that the NOAH select system costs $5,600. That's nothing. If this is what our program has been bragging about, that's a joke. Unless we have some sort of super secret skunk works version that nobody else has, $5,600 is not a...

    I assume they were talking about the NOAH system? To answer your next question, no it won't do any good. I've heard Pastner talking about this for the past 2 seasons and you see the results on the court now.

    Fire CJP + State of the Program

    I really want(ed) Pastner to be successful, but the Ron Bell thing is an obvious black eye for the program, and it has to be an easy target for negative recruiting. I imagine that fiasco has definitely impacted Pastner's recruiting success over the last year.

    LOL. This is one I've been trying to come to grips with myself. I wanted to start a "What's The Good Word?!"... "To Hell With Georgia!" cheer with my 5 year old son at today's game, similar to "Yellow"... "Jackets", but I don't think my wife would have let me get away with it, unless we used...

    Ugly Loss to UGA, How Many ACC wins this year

    OK, yeah, ya'll are both right about #33. He is a nice player. Not elite yet, and let's hope he doesn't become elite under Crean. That 3 point shot was a dagger that hurt us late in the game. Like I said, they have had some really good talent on their team for several seasons in a row, but...
