Gamecocks 2022, Part II

And what does that have to do with 11 National Championships and 13 consecutive Final Fours?

I agree that the best coaches should be the highest paid and I would also agree that Geno should make more than all of them (and he does...or at the very least did)....

Nothing, but Leghorn was just saying that Staley belongs at the top of the SEC pay scale, not the national scale.

My apologies for misreading Leghorn's post and interjecting UConn into the conversation. I guess I'll have to wait until the UConn-South Carolina game to be relevant.

Ahead of Geno? In fairness, if this was a world where performance was rewarded logically, shouldn't he be the highest paid?

I don't think UConn has to worry about the Trailblazers. Our package is intended to send all other suitors packing. and set the stage for the next decade. Geno is home.

We’ve all got pre-season false starts on our arguing

Arguing? I prefer to think of it as spirted (and occasionally informed) discussion.

He will be again when his time for a contract extension comes up And he gets his pay bump.

I was referring to the SEC.

I was so informed of my misreading, and apologized for it in a previous post.

I am an an attorney. So, “argument” is more akin to “debate” than to heated disagreement.

And I am an attorney as well. I try to do my best not to confuse disagreement with disagreeable.

On her Instagram, 2022’s #3 overall recruit Janiah Barker said she will announce her commitment on Thursday. Hopefully to us.. Wow look at the detail Dawn outs into recruiting, display all the hardware, put the players# [2] on the shot Clock... and the players graduation year on the scoreboard [2022]

 

[JDuro]

Looks like she won’t be taking OV’s to Duke and Louisville. Looking good for USC, though she did seem to enjoy her visits to Oxford and Athens so I wouldn’t be shocked if she went to one of those. She posted much more on IG while on her visit to USC than the other two and she posted a about the news of Dawn’s new contract. Fingers crossed we‘re getting our first commit this week!

If y'all get her. I see at least 2-3 Natty's the next few years. Not including this year. She's not on the team lol. But y'all are still my favorites to win

 

[TC22]

Let us hope. Would love to have her. She will be a big need after next year.

Joni Taylor (UGA) just posted her “Midnight Train to Georgia” tweet so I’m not optimistic.
I think it’s Barker… which would be a REALLY good get for them. Likely a day 1 starter there.

I'm happy if it's true, but kinda messed up if they publish this before she made an official announcement.

They've never been my go to site; Dawn hasn't tweeted anything about a birdie in the nest so if she's verbally committed, Dawn doesn't know.

We technically still have a unrevealed birdie from a few months back.

She may be the birdie Dawn tweeted about months ago.
