  1. Probably learned that from Barnes. Barnes was excellent at TEACHING in-bounds plays for shots.
  2. Go away. Far away. Stop trying to kissass your way back into the good graces of the basketball board.
  3. maybe we'll meet in the first round.
  4. The Ruins have beaten Cal, Stanford, Oregon w/a combined conf record of 0-8. Just my peccadillo, but stats, more stats and damn lies. NBA is the worst because there are so many rotten teams and a swing through the Eastern conference puts you on a winning streak. But the talking heads don't tell you that.
  5. I'm not so sure that a win in Stillwater would have changed some minds, to me it's more about how we win(and lose). Do we look like we've learned anything? Do we recognize and adapt to the opponents strategy? Can we run crunch time plays that put us in a position to win? Are the best players on the court for the circumstance? I've been a hs coach for a long time(not basketball) and certainly know not to live and die with the most recent result. But I also know that I've got to shore up my strategy weaknesses and make sure my team understands why and what we're changing or fine tuning. I just don't see it into year 4. I don't want him fired mid-year, hell I want him to prove me wrong. He hasn't done it so far.
  6. Upward arc?
  7. "A Face in the Crowd" is on . Sadly relevant.
  8. https://www.usatoday.com/border-wall/us-mexico-interactive-border-map/
  9. The Texas border is mostly unfenced because of treaty provisions, private-property rights, litigation and floodplains. Fencing was easier to build in New Mexico, Arizona and California, where the federal government controls a 60-foot-wide strip of land adjacent to the border.
  10. Orakpo is another stud athlete from Houston Lamar. Taught him.
  11. How does a school cheat in the course of a basketball game?
  12. Chris O. was a favorite of mine. Defined White Men Can't Jump. But always a spark when he entered because he knew the fundamentals.
  13. Irish traveler? Dealt w/this at a parking lot I owned. Of course even Gypsy con-men write contracts. That was the day I learned what a "yard" of concrete was supposed to be.
  14. I never thought America would elect a black man. I also thought America would have no problem voting for a woman. Wrong on both counts. Where would be if Hilary had served Obama's term and Obama had run against Trump?
  15. Do I need to adjust my sarcasm meter? https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2018/feb/05/devin-nunes/nunes-memo-twists-james-comeys-words-steele-dossie/
  16. So you're saying there a chance?
  17. Hoiberg is awesome. Did his family make the move to Chicago? I know they loved Ames. Maybe they're grown now and out of the house. He's like Snyder in the fact that he likes juco and castoffs and they got into a fair amount of trouble in Ames.
  18. could you give us an example. my interest is piqued. I typed this in response a few hours ago but mindfarted on the send. I believe you, I'm just interested in the depth of his depravity. If 1 is "April Fools" and 10 is "the team doc called and said you have cancer", where does Shaka stand?
  19. Golden Corral is closed, but there's half-a-dozen cars strung out about the lot. Do that many people stroke out daily @GC? Stripes b'fast tacos. Happy b'day Jesus.
  20. Just asking. Are we sure he's playing mind games w/Roach? Maybe my definition of mind games is different. Do we know why he sat? We know what we were told.
  21. No, that just brings posts about injuries, charts on the age of our team, whining about how other teams are playing above their head and how (surprisingly) a key player is not playing well.
  22. @Cameltoe Are we still young?
