I never understood why football teams didn’t roster an extremely tall athlete, there’s so many uses. Football is a game of mismatches. A 6’10+ NBA style athlete could be used in multiple ways; blocking field goals(ball crosses line @ 8-11 ft off the ground), block distance punts, catch lob...

Friends and I had a heated debate tonight, so I thought it would be a good topic. Who makes the better pro?

Not a fan of this. You should have a set system and recruit pieces for the system. With a 35 second shot clock you should be running sets every half court possession. I suspect the feedback they’re getting from recruits is that they don’t offer enough freedom but there’s freedom within the sets...

Unnerving that Danny hasn’t given some kind of coach k type answer about sticking with the program for the foreseeable future no matter what opens. I suspect he just wants to use it as leverage in future contract negotiations. But I also think he will make the jump when he’s 60+.

Feels like it’s Jay Wright with all the Nova players on the roster.

Literally a practice body. I don’t think Coach Hurley agreed w the scholarship extension. It’s hard to fill out a 15 man team. You have to find 3-4 kids that are willing to come in and be a practice bodies, take no money while their teammates make 6-7 figures. It ruins the dynamic.

Staff once again ahead of the curve, or maybe triggered the curve? Kid has picked up a bunch of offers from high majors last 24 hours.

Hurley has a thing for players who frequently use a jump stop. It’s like his favorite move.

Interested to hear from people who attend all the games. I attended pretty much every home game from 2004-2015, but moved out of state so I’ve only seen a handful of games at Gampel the last 10 years. With that in mind for me it was either Shabazz hitting the buzzer beater vs Florida in 2014 or...

I wonder what would happen an obvious steroid user who couldn’t get in solely bc of steroids became a legendary coach or executive. Would they still hold it against them? If they let them in bc of their coaching/managing would the hall mention their playing days?

I think it would benefit Castle too, he’d be coming off the bench if they were to draft Harper 2. His PT last year was situational. He’s a young player, he can be Milwaukee’s Cade Cunningham. Question is does Giannis want to play for San Antonio or does he want to go to a bigger market. Leaks...

Here’s a good question. Who made it into the HOF that you suspect was on performance enhancers? We know some of the pitchers were using them to recover from injury. Because after it came out that Petite was doing it, a number of players came out and said that it was common practice.

That roster construction doesn’t make sense. 3 shooting guards who can’t shoot, Their window is now w Wemby on a rookie contact. Who knows if his camp is eyeing a bigger market. Makes too much sense for them to move #2, Steph and some of their future picks for Giannis, and draft a lethal...

Hard to find info on 2027 but I think it’s safe to assume we’ll be in on Kamsi seeing as he’s a 5 star CT kid who plays for Cheshire and New Heights. Reminds me a lot of Sanogo. Anyone have more info on him seeing as he’s local?
