FYI

With Joe and Evan? Really? Those jokers don't know the first thing about college basketball.

 

[uconndennis]

Yup...Evan tweeted it

 

[SirHypeAlot]

listening right now... KO IS THE MAN

I think a lot of players, and their families, see that and feel similarly about coming and playing for Ollie.

stuck at work, any relevant details?

I caught the end of it. Nothing earth shattering. Talked about how experienced the team is, and how that's helpful, but he would have liked to have landed a player like Parker or Wiggins. Also talked about how hard it was for the team last year- they beat 5 teams who made it to the NCAA's, went 20-10 and 10-8 in the BE. Any other season that would have put then in the tourney. All happened through no fault of the players, but it made them stronger and closer, and how they all love the game and the team this year. Very supportive of each other.

Great interview by KO

 

[Northbound]

Those two guys are boneheads. How many times did that tool Joe say "bro" in the interview.

 

[Dove]

Man, KO can talk, huh?

 

[husky91]

It was great, he's such a genuine guy. Maybe not detailed XsOs but thinking guy is classy, and a great representative of University. Parents would be proud to have their kids play for him.

Great interview by KO

 

[AtlantaHusky]

We should send that interview to parents of any recruits we are really interested in.

One thing is for sure: KO doesn't read from a teleprompter, and it's beautiful to hear.

KO played point guard for Larry Brown twice during his NBA career (the second time when Brown brought him in to run the show). I'd wager heavily that KO knows X's & O's (as it pertains to hoops) pretty well.

 

[husky91]

Umm sure, he didn't talk much about it in interview, it was more just about the program and his style. That is EXACTLY what I said.

[aceboon]

who talks Xs&Os in a 10 minute radio spot? that spot was to promote the program and the upcoming 2k Classic, which KO did quite well.

 

[husky91]

Yes, XO meaning no specific bball or player questions.

What do you mean? Normally asked a question about the teams or even current NBA.

Teleporters arent the best reading devices.

 

[AtlantaHusky]

the word tele-prompter isn't allowed on board i guess it always changes it to teleporter!
