    11/23 - MBB vs. #18 Cincinnati

    Credit Cusejacket for previously posting in Swarm 2 years ago on Marbury recruitment. Go find the video. If you find it, recruitment is explained. Wasn’t about $. Boeheim told him he wasn’t going to start at Syracuse & his family laughed at Boeheim. Cremins promised him the ball.

    Bobby Cremins played & coached with such integrity that the NCAA asked him to serve on its Infractions Committee. Which he did representing Georgia Tech proudly & with honor.

    No sources, but he told you off with such a high level of superior condescension, smugness & self-aggrandizement that would buckle the knees of Dale Carnegie. Gotta give credit & admire that, no? Jump to paragraph 4 in article below. Can’t wait to see who these guys besmirch next. Bobby Dodd...

    11/23 - MBB vs. #18 Cincinnati

    I don’t think retrospective energy looking back 40+ years is a real thing. In the age of NIL donors tell me what tools CDS is being given to build with. Obviously I don’t see the problems as being related to CDS and my visit yesterday confirmed that. At least in my mind. Let the haters hate. I...

    Cremins went 10-16 (3-11) season 1 & 13-15 (4-10) season 2? If we had social media back then with the Swarm, what would have posted 5 games into his season 2 & after its completion?

    11/23 - MBB vs. #18 Cincinnati

    If you are 90 you were 52 or older when you defended the 3. I don’t think these players have lost inspiration because of crowd size, but home court advantage is a real thing and these kids don’t have it. Not their fault. On the flip size, visiting teams gain inspiration playing away in an empty...

    11/23 - MBB vs. #18 Cincinnati

    WINNING. It begets winning. Losing begets losing. And that, in turn, leads to loss of confidence. Home is more than where the heart is. It’s where you want to play. Always thinking “Great, we’ve got a home stand coming up”. Or “Thank goodness we are going home” after a bad road loss. Why do...

    11/23 - MBB vs. #18 Cincinnati

    I was excited to arrive at McCamish for the first time in 26 years. It was Alexander Memorial McDonald’s back then. It wasn’t for a game, although I did see Matt Harpring receive his degree at the same ceremony my son got his. Been a fan for over 30 years now. Disappointments will never result...

    First time meeting my 4 mo great-granddaughter in Jonesboro. Highlighted this one. Hope you son is all good.

    11/23 - MBB vs. #18 Cincinnati

    Drove down from NY for the game & only using 1 of my 2 seats. Guess there is no point of offering the other one if you have no takers.

    11/15 Tech v. UGA

    NIL is a big headwind. Can’t always buy the ingredients you prefer if you can’t afford them.

    11/15 Tech v. UGA

    Big difference between interested fans who complain one day about watching bad play and praising the next day following good play and “so-called” fans who just relish in bashing teams, players, coaches after every loss, never having anything good to say, contributing nothing to real forum discourse

    11/15 Tech v. UGA

    I remember those days 57. At 6’3” we were BIGs in HS & blocking out was a bit easier because there was no trey shooting with balls springing off the rim well beyond the front court reach of the tallest players. Rebounding game today impacted by three point shooting even more so than offense...

    11/15 Tech v. UGA

    Maybe if these games were played on a clipboard with Xs & Os instead of on hardwood with 18-21 year-olds, Pastner would still be here.

    11/15 Tech v. UGA

    The geniuses are out in force. We have to go undefeated to never see them show up here. The guy who doesn’t like your “strange conversations” thinks Batt won’t f around and fire CDS. Short memories abound. Damon didn’t raise his hand, email a resume and win an interview saying “pick me, pick...

    Seats for Texas Southern went for $4. Supply and demand.

    11/15 Tech v. UGA

    SeatGeek is the official resale partner for Georgia Tech. I think the Rambling Wreck site actually defaults there. Available seats and prices look identical.

    11/15 Tech v. UGA

    The home court bias used by the rating systems will probably make GT a 1 point favorite. On a neutral court Georgia would be favored by 2 1/2-3. In Athens the Jackets would likely be underdogs by 4-4 1/2. The rating systems are on KenPom & BartTorvik and might vary slightly up or down once...
