Secret Scrimmage v Harvard

[Ewekon]

One can be critical without being mean.
The front court isn't good. At all.

Real talk?

Yes

Grille 86 tonight - good time (when I wasn’t posting about football) with focus on MBB and of course the Red Sox.

Some day, and that day may never come, I will call upon you to do a service for me. Well, that day has come. We need you to use all of your powers, reach out to those in the athletic department, whom you hold in the palm of your hand and find out what happened at the scrimmage. No more gag order, tell this family what you know. If you can’t get any real info, don’t worry, make up stuff to keep everyone calm. Thanks in advance!

What Chief00 is saying is very basic. If our recruiting is successful it will be a successful year. We need to play harder and be more competitive on the court - but it’s not really about wins or loses this season. Again, recruiting is the key.

Agreed recruiting and culture change are keys to season

I hear you but think about it. So I should encourage someone(s) to break NCAA rules so we can know about a scrimmage? Quite frankly, probably not a good idea, especially when an ex coach’s defense in litigation seems to be everyone did it.
Let’s suffice to say, we have a lot of work to do. But, everyone already knows that.
Admittedly, I don’t know all the rule nuances around secret scrimmages but with a real open scrimmage this Friday - let’s wait for that and focus on a 6-11 five star kid on campus today.

Like I said, Harvard won by 14 and Gilbert looked good. I can’t confirm the Vital thing but it is believable. I wasn’t able to get any further info.

To hell with culture. If we have a wonderful culture and lose all our games what good is it? Culture is something losing coaches blabber about non-stop.

I will say this, if you went to Grille 86 last night you could have ask

Yeah, we have more than our share of coach's who talked about changing the culture. Not that it’s not important but it’s really a by product of all the things you do to win. You do them to make your chance of winning better not as a goal in itself.

Is there proof a secret scrimmage was actually played?

[HawkHusky]

Scrimmages? Who else did they scrimmage?

 

[Kangaroo Zay]

He meant throughout his coaching career they’ve been most helpful.

But did we win?

 

[auror]

But did we win?

No.

 

[HawkHusky]

I'd like to know which 8 players.

[HawkHusky]

Oh wow. Ok. I feel better about the loss now.

 

[UConnSwag11]

No.
