Doesn't Tarris just completely disprove this point? There were thousands of fans begging for him to start and Hurley stuck with the guy who'd been in the program longer.
I ended up being wrong and Mahaney sucked, but 1. He did start and 2. I never said he should start instead of Solo Ball like you keep claiming
No the point is just because a lot of people say something doesn’t make it right moreso bro
Fair. Probably using the wrong language when it comes to transfers. I’m just not a believer in the whole “everyone earns their minutes” thing and Tarris could be considered another example of that.
So shooting 47% from the field against grown men over a season and performing is disregarded but shooting 40% from the field against U19 is put on a pedastal?
When I was reading as a lurker it was way too peaceful with people agreeing on bad evaluations. Had to come back to get some proper POV on the board again.
Now you're pulling up old posts - sh@#$#t stirrer move extraordinaire. I'm just gonna sit back with my popcorn.
In the Tarris interview earlier this summer Tarris admitted he didn’t start seriously working on what the coaches wanted until January. The Reed/Samson issue wasn’t just about loyalty.
The piece you're missing is that most of those grown men are not good basketball players, and certainly not D1 caliber
Maybe peace and improper POV is something that the yard likes, as opposed to your holier than thou BS opinions. Maybe lurking is your calling. Maybe a poll is necessary?
Are you telling me, outside of the US team of course, the grown men in the highest league in Serbia are not better than the U19 players in other countries?
If anyplace could use an actual coup ...
Also, you’re factually incorrect on the D1 caliber part and you’re making assumptions based on no research.

This is from a 28 point game Uros had on 9-11 shooting.
The team featured at least 4 former D1 players from Dayton, Iowa, App State, and St John’s.
So that’s just a completely false statement and far from the D3 basketball at best as @husky429 said.

No, that doesn't seem anywhere close to what I said
Got it, doesn't really change my opinion but thanks. I was just going off the list of all their stats leaders and not seeing a single D1 player other than Demetre Roberts who I mentioned to you. The point remains, it's a massive step up for him to transition to D1 basketball in the USAlso, you’re factually incorrect on the D1 caliber part and you’re making assumptions based on no research.

One of the players from the game. Actually a familiar name.

Really not sure you’re in a position to start dunking on people for predictions that turned out to be very wrong…
The irony is he's in in perfect position, because he deleted his account so the evidence of every single awful take he's made is gone
Let it rip man, it was getting sleepy on here this summer, and to your credit, right or wrong, you're definitely sparking up the board. A wider range of opinions is good to see.
I just want to avoid the “nobody saw this coming” posts later on.
Multiple people tried to say the league Uros played in sucked and wasnt close to D1 level. I provide proof that’s not the case and then get hit with this that gets multiple likes. My post that pointed out D1 players play in his league (and used a game he almost had 30 on 80% shooting) has 1.
Thank you for saving us from that horrible fate down the road.
