  1. This team will surprise some

    in other words, you're happy to post personal attacks and proclaim your superior basketball talent acumen, but you won't back it up? Got it. Assumed as much.
  2. This team will surprise some

    Gloves have been dropped. Game on. Here's my proposal. Let me know if you have the stones to back up your talk or if you're a typical troll that just spouts hot air If "your guys" don't achieve the insane production you predict, you sign off this board, never to return If "your guys" become...
  3. This team will surprise some

    If Tadric, Lammers or Heath becomes the All-ACC caliber players you believe they will, I will be glad to say I was wrong. I'm not embarrassed to call myself a GT fan. Have had season tickets at football and hoops for 14 years (this season will be #15) and have gone to almost every game...
  4. This team will surprise some

    Through his first couple of years, Tadric has shown he can travel, drop passes, charge, miss wide open jumpers, dunk once in a while and generally get abused on the defensive end of the court. I've yet to see him stop on a dime except when he's watching his man dribble by him for a layup...
  5. This team will surprise some

    I must admit I'm baffled at this point. Since July 27, you've been boldly predicting ppg, apg & rpg production by player. And projecting "better than the last two years" win totals. Now you say you're not focused on those things? I think if you had started by saying "we're going to lose a...
  6. This team will surprise some

    Amen to that! Far too often, McCamish has been half full (if that) and quieter than am morgue. We need to show up and support the team if we want recruits to commit. If they see a good supportive crowd when the team is not at its best, they can imagine playing in front of a packed house...
  7. This team will surprise some

    Never thought I would see Ben Lammers compared to Bosh, Salley & Hammonds. Guess Gregory was just blind or stupid since he kept one of the best bigs in school history on the bench behind mediocre talent for the past two years. I don't know who will improve and who won't. Also don't know how...
  8. This team will surprise some

    Agreed. If every player comes back wildly better than anything they've shown before and all the recruits play far better than their scouting reports, we could win some games. Without that miracle, I think 2 conference wins is a likely outcome. As far as no powerhouse team in the league ...
  9. McCamish

    ESPN did a story about ACC hoop arenas. Not surprisingly, McCamish is ranked next to last. I agree with them about the potential atmosphere... if CJP gets the Jackets on a roll, McCamish will be one of the toughest places for teams to play. Starts a virtuous cycle in terms of fan base and...
  10. 2016-2017 GT Hoops Schedule

    Ugh. Season tix are expensive since you're paying for the ACC games & UGA. The rest of home OOC is pay-for-pummel fodder.
  11. ACC Discussion

    I love the 20 game schedule. It's closer to the home and home we used to have before we annexed the Big East. Each team will have home and homes with 6 of the 14 teams. Not perfect but better than today
  12. Ireland

    I got mine in the mail mid-June
  13. Football game in Dublin

    I know this is a hoop board, but I post here more often that football boards, so thought I would post this here as well. Apologies in advance is this is too off topic. Just hoping I can find a Jacket fan who would like to go to Ireland for the game. I was psyched about going to the game in...
  14. Ireland

    I was psyched about going to the game in Dublin, but it looks like life has other plans for me. Don't think I'll be able to make it to Ireland now. I have two tickets in great location (Block 308, row M). They're sideline seats in the Premium zone. (Based on the seating charts available...
  15. This team will surprise some

    I think zero ACC wins is possible. Not likely but possible. More likely is 1-3. I think 5 is absolute max. The conference is loaded again next year. Maybe we beat BC or Pitt or Wake. Possible we steal a game from VPI. Duke, UNC, NCSU, UVA, Louisville , Cuse, FSU, Miami, ND and even...
  16. 2016-2017 GT Hoops Schedule

    Fully admit I don't follow hoops up in Athens very closely. They've won one NCAA tourney game in last 20 years. As a general rule, they're like most SEC teams not named Kentucky.... They suck pond water. Every now and then they are ok and win 20 games, but it's an anomaly. I think they...
  17. Big Bob to the Big League

    I doubt Marcus Paige is feeling much better than Carter. He did get picked, but at #55. Two years ago, he had all the hype and was projected as late lottery. He stuck around, was exposed as a nice kid with mediocre game, and dropped to a certain D-League assignment. He's probably wondering...
  18. 2016-2017 GT Hoops Schedule

    ouch. Tulane, Alcorn, Ohio, TN Tech, Sam Houston, Southern, Wofford. There's 7 games no one will attend. Anyone want my tickets, let me know. UGA is always fun, even though neither team will be any good this year. ACC schedule is set by the league, so it is what it is. Best games on...
  19. GT Hoops General Topics

    didn't mean to imply anything negative by calling him a "nice player"... just don't see him as OAD or even 2 & done. Agree with you that the baby blue crowd hasn't had an elite athlete at PG in a long time. Ty Lawson is probably most recent and he was amazingly quick but not super athletic...

    I would be shocked beyond belief if Woods goes pro after one year. I think he's in Chapel Hill for four years and will be a nice player, but not an All-ACC player for at least a couple of years. Just my POV, but think his composite rank (#48 overall / #15 PG-CG) aligns with that view also
