2024 Recruiting: John Bol has decommitted from Florida (7/31/23 has committed to Ole Miss)

[Waquoit]

I heard Thabeet on every commercial break during the tournament. If that's not panning out...

 

[donyell34]

He's on that beer commercial. That's something. Pro career means nothing, his college career at Uconn is his legacy and it was good and then some.

 

[Fishy]

I don’t want any pre-madonna’s that come in highly ranked but only want to practice for 1 year in UConn uniform and enter draft. We’re too good for that…

Some dead horses being kicked and low hanging fruit being grabbed on this thread oh boy

So you wish we never recruited Castle? Already projected as a lottery pick next summer

Arkansas made 2 consecutive final 8’s and a sweet sixteen. Their fans are thrilled

In the case of almost every one and done... it is not necessarily the player... it is the role and fit on any given team. I have faith in our staff that they can recognize whether a player with one and done potential is a good fit and if they don't find one (or two or three), they move on to somebody else regardless of NBA potential who is a more valuable in his given role.

Spot on. Where you run into trouble is when a kid is being sold on a role he will never occupy. Like a UK bringing in 5 or 6 kids a year expecting to be 1 and done. I think an ideal roster construction has 1 or 2 of these guys surrounded by vets but there’s a million ways to skin a cat.

OT: At KFC YUM! Center

Waiting for Madonna "Rebel Heart" concert to begin, and the venue & Louisville are way better than the haters on this board claim.

Pre-Madonna is absolutely magnificent. Belongs on a Michael Scott whiteboard.

Ha. Spot on!
Also, in all seriousness, how come 'Primo Don' never came into fashion when describing entitled male athletes? Wouldn't that be the proper masc. phrase?
'That Baker Mayfield is such a Primo Don'

“ pre-Madonna” is a Carmine Lupertazzi Jr. level malaprop. Legendary.

This program is at the precipice of an enormous crossroads. You might say we’re in an stagmire.

This season was like a present. A mellifluous box.

There’s no stigmata in seeing a shrink.

 

[nomar]

Thabeet isn’t a sore spot, he was just an outstanding college player that didn’t pan out in the pros. This is a college team, so hell yeah I’d take another Thabeet. Dude was an absolute eraser around the rim on defense.

Yeah, we definitely don’t need any KEAs either. Bust.

And frankly, given that Sanogo didn’t get drafted, I’d like to go back in time to before the season and kick him off the team.

Coincidentally I’m rewatching S. 5 at the moment so Little Carmine is all over it. But Eugene Pontecorvo had the best line of the season when Blundetto finds that bag of cash in the street: “the only thing I ever found in the street was my first wife.”

Next time there'll be no next time.

Phil's "so I compromised" monologue is an all-timer.

Yup

Historically, Fishy always said the Boneyard is nothing more than a glorified crew. Plain and simple. We decapitate and we make posts with whatever's left.

Who’s grabbing low hanging fruit from dead horses? It’s not fruit.

Two freakin’ forums - Rivals and 247 - then we got this pygmy thing over on the-boneyard
