Roster questions

[tzznandrew]

Im writing on the fly my man. excuse me for my poor punctuation's. just trying to get my point across quickly.

Well, you failed. Part of the purpose of punctuation and capitalization is to get your point across. When you don't use it, it becomes indecipherable.

EAT YOUR WORDS BRO!!! ROSCOE IS TRANSFERRING!!!

So you would rather be right and revel in Roscoe leaving the team than be wrong.

Good to know. Now I know to ignore you.

No im not reveling at all. i just knew this was going to happen and other people on this topic said i was crazy and annoying. When all im doing is saying what may happen. But people on here seem to think "im just saying it just to say it" and that's not the case at all.BUT Roscoe is better off leaving hes not getting the ball as much as he should here. Don't get me wrong i would love for him to stay!! But i would also like to see him progress as a player and try to go after his goal in becoming a NBA player. That to me was not going to happen here at Uconn. You got to remember Roscoe came from a big time HS in Oak Hill Academy basically the Kentucky of High school Basketball. He can Play big time!! He just couldn't get into "rhythm" at Uconn. I am positive once he finds the right school this kid will take off!! Sky the Limit for Roscoe. I say thanks to Roscoe for the contributions that he made in our national Title run and i wish him nothing but the best of luck. And i hope he reaches his dream in becoming a NBA player that i know he can be.

So, four scholarships this year? Let's be honest about the problem.

After 2006, the team lost: Boone, Gay, Williams, Armstrong, Anderson, Brown, Nelson
They returned: Marcus Johnson, Jeff Adrien, Craig Austrie, Rod Garrison, AJ Price*
They brought in a huge class: Jerome Dyson, Stanley Robinson, Hasheem Thabeet, Doug Wiggins, Curtis Kelley, Jonathan Mandeldove, and Ben Eaves. That's 7 players in one class. 2 guards, 3 forwards, 2 centers.

All of them wanted playing time (and there was a lot to offer), but because they all couldn't have minutes, many of these kids took off. Garrison and Eaves were gone at the end of the year. Johnson, Wiggins, and Kelley would leave eventually.

Without balance in on a roster, you are going to have too much turnover. If Kelley came in and Adrien was a Junior, he probably assumes he can bide his time and shine. When he's a Sophomore?

We have four scholarships to give out. They should bank two. But they really need to find some kids who don't mind playing back-up for their career and give them a scholarship (for APR and class balance).

Its Rob* Garrison not Rod. And Adrian was a Sophomore when Kelly* not Kelley came in. just my 2 cents

Do not correct spelling when you make mistakes yourself. Cheers.

Aside from the two misspellings, you misread/understood my point.

I said, "If Kelley came in and Adrien was a Junior" for a reason. Hypothetical situation where maybe Kelley could have stayed.

Then I said, "When he's a Sophomore?" to acknowledge Adrien was a sophomore and bring the hypothetical to a close.

It seems you read as quickly and carelessly as you type. Slow down...

Now, if you really wanted to criticize me, you could have, instead, noted that I incorrectly used the subjunctive in my hypothetical. It should have read "If Kelley came in and Adrien were a Junior."

Oh well...

Your right my bad! just like your bad saying i had no idea what i was talking about when i suggested Roscoe was transferring. I know more then what you think bro. Maybe be a little more kinder.

God I hope you are still getting an education. Trying to decipher what you have written is mind-numbing at times.

Let me know where I said you had no idea what you were talking about when you suggested Roscoe was transferring. I don't recall saying that. I do recall saying it would make more sense for Daniels than Roscoe, I stand by that assessment.

You may "know" a lot, but if you can't express it in a fashion that is understandable, it doesn't matter.

I don't care if there are grammar mistakes, spelling mistakes, or whatever; but it must be readable.
