You either make vague claims that don’t pertain to the specific predictions you say you made after the fact, or you regurgitate what other posters and journalists have already told us. Perhaps you should take a cue from them and ease up on the constant demand for validation. Your constant search for participation trophies sends a bad message to the younger generation.

The board lived through the Dam break thread so as Shakespeare would say - you protest too much. If you can’t comprehend better I don’t know what I can do for you? You aren’t fooling all but a few loyalist who sit around in a small circle liking each other’s posts with you. Like somehow that means something. For most posters information was effectively communicated and most had some fun. You have been, quite frankly sour throughout. I can’t post blank said he’s coming to UConn. Most people seem to get it, regretfully you probably never will. Oh well.

Yet, you can point blank say Akok Akok “is Dan Hurley’s power forward”?

Last I checked, Dan Hurley coaches UConn MBB. Therefore, “Akok Akok is Dan Hurley’s power forward” = “Akok Akok is UConn MBB’s power forward”. To be UConn MBB’s power forward, Akok Akok must be “coming to UConn”

Bracing for some vague, runaround reply to which I won’t bother to respond. But your lack of consistency is readily apparent in every thread in which you post.

I watched three complete games while Steve was in prep and what we saw at UConn was how he played in those games. He was poorly motivated when it came to defense. In one game he was yanked quickly and sat out for the remainder of the half because of poor defense.

Some players can be motivated with a new coach/coaching style. Others can’t.

We watched year after year Thabeet rebounding a ball bring it down to his waist and get stripped. That was under a hall of fame coach. Carleton rarely does this. What does that imply. Nothing other than when we are upset with someone we point out all their failures and dismiss their accomplishments. We do the opposite when we like someone.

Steve will settle our disagreement on the court. He will be an overall solid player. He most likely will start in the ACC.

That comment of mine doesn’t quote Dan Hurley - but you got the message. It was a simple statement. Why fight it? Not so hard, see how it works.
If Akok goes to UConn - I will be right - if not I am wrong. Pretty simple except for to Stain.

You have a very bizarre habit of tying people’s comprehension and “getting it” to the practice of giving you compliments. On the other hand, people who question you are lacking in knowledge, “lightweights,” or biased against you because of your politics. I wonder what’s going on there?

Last comment to you, I really think you’re lost. I hope things improve for you.

My second Mitchell thread on ignore. This is a record for me. Even Hami I only ignored one. I have never been prouder of a message board. Amazing.

I understand the validity of the contributions to the above post. I not saying people are wrong. Rather, Chief thinks a lot of it has to do with Steve not mentally processing the speed of the game in real time. Eventually, Chief thinks that switch will get turned on. Chief also thinks his position coaching was lacking.

if you dont know that I said this pizza was decent prior to you reporting it today than I dont know what to tell you.
 
Chief I don’t mind your shtick because it can be kinda comical at times but this whole derailing every single thread with non stop hypotheticals and no real information or analysis is beyond annoying. I know I’m not the only one who would say enough is enough man

Man up and call it straight - Stain derailed this thread. I will put him on ignore so Chief won’t have to listen to that loser.

Chief, that’s a false statement.

Page 1 of this thread, post #20. I made a comment to a completely different poster, which you for some reason thought was addressed to you. You chose to jump in and make this all about yourself.

This thread is a whole lot of garbage.

Chief has broken every recruiting scoop this year and this is the thanks. I am done. Chief doesn’t need this where I have to dumb everything down to the Stain level.

Please, stop using "I" where it's supposed to be "he." Get a grip; there's a big weekend ahead: I'm going to First Night. #strictlycasual

I hope he puts it all together. I don’t wish the kid ill will. The problem I have is the automatic assumption players lack of development is entirely on the coaching staff. Steve had a history of playing defense poorly prior to his arrival at UConn which seems to be ignored.
