@Peacone36 I'm not sure what you're talking about. Basically this thread is you and @kg01 saying that other people are making crazy talk. (Love the Ignore feature)

I know it seems like he gets hot (like starting 3-3 against Va Poly) but he makes less than one 3 a game for his career (and thats consistent across four years). So either his gets hot once or twice a year and goes oh-for -the-other-30 games, or he really never gets hot and makes a couple of...

I'm not a shot doctor, but given his career 3FG shooting %, I would simply tell him to stop taking threes. He's 26.5% for his career. I you toss out last year as an anomaly, he drops to 23.2%. He's much more effective using his strength and strong lower body to post up guards and /or score...

LOL.... thanks to StubHub, I can offload the tickets for games I can't make (which is most of the ones at other schools) and it makes the whole thing pretty affordable

I don’t know all the details of various coaches’ contracts or school finances. I do have season tickets at six D1 schools this year so can tell you the donation levels and ticket prices vary greatly based on the teams performance, not arena capacity My current GT seats are in a fantastic...

Before we start running CJP out of town, let's remember a couple of facts about Tech hoops ONE winning season in ACC play in the last 22 years 7 winning conference records since rejoining the ACC (39 seasons) If CJP can simply get us close to .500 in the league on a consistent basis, he will...

The list of top ten recruits at Tech is a very short list. OTOH the list of 20-50 ranked kids who came in, busted their butts and wildly exceeded expectations is pretty long. And don't forget the kids ranked significantly lower (many outside top 100 and/or 3*) who made the rankings look silly

Remember, Ol Roy was also "shocked" when he "found out" about the 20 year academic fraud that he actively participated in...

Bobblehead secured.

Just looking at Ken Pom for some relaxing Saturday morning analytics... We are 0-12 in "A" (Top 50, adjusted for location) games but 3-0 in "B" (Top 100, location adjusted) games. Va Tech at McCamish is a "B" game KenPom model gives us a 37% probability of winning, but predicts it will be a...

Damn. @kg01 and me having a love fest today. Never saw that coming ;)

Purdue has now lost three in a row. One would assume they will drop out of the top 10. And they have Penn State next. The same Penn State that just boat raced #8 Ohio state last night.

This. Times 100. I think most of the money will be found going between sneaker companies and AAU coaches or other runners. Supposed to steer a company to specific agents or advisors, post college. I doubt many instances will directly involve assistant or head coaches directly. Also doubt...

Hmmmmm.... "I think" and "I heard".... Meanwhile we've been busted this year for impermissible benefits and an assistant coach got canned. I'd mworry more about our own house before following the latest conspiracy theory that explains why we can only beat Duke once every 15 years

Never heard anyone with any integrity or credibility accuse K of anything. Fans of other schools? Sure. That means less than nothing. I will be very surprised if K is implicated in anything. I would not be blown away if someone connected to the Duke program may have done something...

HOF coach = Pitino. Top tier program = Louisville & Arizona They've already checked those two boxes. Wouldn't surprise me if some of this hits players / recruits, assistant coaches & outsiders like AAU / sneaker cos. Entirely possible an assistant at a P5 gives a kid something in teh...

I think we beat Wake. I assume Okogie runs point and we roll with a 7 man rotation (JO, Alston, Tad, Lammers, AD, Wright & Cole) Our front court should be able to handle Doral Moore and Thompson / Mitchell. Moore is very foul prone, so would be good to try to get him foul trouble early...

No big surprises. My buddy says Lammers won’t get picked but could try G league and has tools a team might like. Lack of athleticism and no offense were biggest drawbacks He doesn’t believe josh would go first round this year and should stay. Believes he must improve handle (especially...

Im seeing an nba “insider” tonight (he’s an old college buddy whose hoop knowledge has carried him a lot farther than mine!). I’ll see what he says about Josh and Ben. Last time I talked to him he said he thought Ben was second round or I drafted but could get a bench spot if the right team...
