But we've been practicing. 😀

Maybe we should just ignore him.

Even Iverson agrees with me.

Because I love you guys.

too laate but this sounds like good news.

Because posters like you don't understand that it's practice. Why is it that posters on the football fall practice threads understand that simple concept but posters here don't.

Thanks for making my point again. What you just quoted was my response to you about Jabari Rice. Then you brought up Sampson.

You're wrong. My comment was that it's great to hear about practice reports but not to get too excited about them. That was the point and then the idiot gooeuy brought up Ralph Sampson and started his crap.

aggy just suspended 3 freshmen so they are having problems in their locker room. Maybe that can help with 1 or both of them.

you should hope to make it to my age little man.

You're losing. You brought up Ralph Sampson trying to be a smart ass and you failed. Where in all of this does it show winning an NCAA championship. BTW, little guy, I had season tickets to the Rockets every year that he was there, so I don't need you to tell me anything about Ralph. Just stick to telling us who the next hot 16-year-old player is.

If you were alive little gooey, you were probably in the middle of being house and toilet trained so you probably don't know that Chaminade beat Ralph Sampson and he never won an NCAA hoops title so thanks for making my point as most of your posts do.

How did you know that I was a dirty hippie with sideburns? You must have seen one of our fall practices in the dark ages.

Of course, there is value to having a scrimmage against another school. That's why you have a scrimmage. And that's why info on fall workouts isn't that important. And you are correct that sometimes a scrimmage doesn't mean playing and running up and down the court for 20 minutes Quite often, each team will work on specific situations to see how they respond against kids in a different jersey. I hope this kid has a great year. I want to see how he fits in with the rest of his teammates and in a game and not practice.

I hope you're right.

I know that you're desperate to prove me wrong on anything. I don't care if he is a 4 time All American. Fall reports mean very little if anything. I see you showing videos of a kid dunking against air. Big deal. We will know what we have when the lights come on. I hope everyone one of our kids has spectacular years. If you want to get excited about fall reports good for you.

You are 100% correct. Info coming out of fall practice means little. Hopefully all the kids will have great seasons. Rice could be a huge factor this year but info during the fall means little. Some of the best kids we had in practice disappeared when the lights come on. WE will have a great idea what we have especially with the new kids when the lights come on.

Baxter was certainly no slouch. Other than the first half of a game where he scored the same number of points as a dead man.

Gut, that 72-73 team could have been really good but we lost 2 starters. I believe that it was that year when Coach had to tell John Mark Wilson that he couldn't play his senior year. Back in the dark ages, you didn't scope but rather you would cut. He had had multiple surgeries on both of his knees and his knees looked like Frankenstein. Evidently, the medical staff talked with the coaches and told them that if he injured either knee one more time, he would be crippled for life. So the coaches obviously left him on scholarship but he couldn't participate any longer. If think that Larry git hurt during non-conference that year at OU and he was gone for the season. Those 2 could have made that year far more successful. The 2 years that Larry played; he was the SWC MVP. Despite what some of the board experts may think, Larry was probably the best player in the SWC in the 70s.

You may want to do a credit check first before you give them such a great deal.

Looks like BG, John Mark Wilson, Harry Larrabee, Eric Groscurth and Larry. We went up to Mid-South Coliseum in Memphis that year and beat Memphis State at their place. They went on to the national finals and got beat by UCLA when Walton made something like 23 out of 24 baskets.

When your football team has been irrelevant longer than Queen Elizabeth was Queen Elizabeth, you will grasp at anything to convince yourself that you are relevant. It's like a drowning person grabbing an anvil. You make up stuff like Stewart vs Worthy or convince yourself that you're relevant because supposedly another team wants one of your players. When you understand that, everything aggy say makes perfect sense.

I spell it RPI

When I was a freshman at UT, armybrat was a 7th year senior so there are a few but not many that have more experience than I do with aggys. Once you understand them, everything makes sense. Aggys live in their own little bubble of reality which has nothing to do with the real world. They have been, currently are and will forever be our little brothers. And that is exactly how they think. They call us tu, whorns, teasips and whtever else their inferior little minds can come up with. In their little bubble, they believe everyone is against them. That's not true. Everyone is sick of their constant whining about everything. They whine more than a JAP (Jewish American Princess and trust me, I know) They have been the most overrated athletic dept over 30 years. They have done little in football, their basketball program has been irrelevant since Shelby and we have won more WS championships in Omaha than they have won games. I will admit that they are a powerhouse in meat judging but that's about it. Academics? If I was interested in an honorable profession like agriculture, that's where I would probably go. They probably have a couple of good engineering depts and that's about it. If you want a small ton atmosphere, go there. If not, go anywhere else. They don't understand that just because you're different, in some ways that makes you better or unique. It doesn't. Probably 99% of all elementary schools, junior high schools, high schools, junior colleges, universities and pro teams have cheerleaders. Even the military academies, I believe. The aggys don't have cheerleaders. They have milkmen and they think that makes them special and unique. They're not. It just makes them different. Nothing more. All schools have traditions but aggys think that their traditions are better. They have the Corp of Cadets. I read where about 70+% have no interest in going into the military when they leave aggy. They just want to play military in college. The list goes on but the bottom line is that really have little clue about the world around them. When they say stupid stuff, embrace it. One quick example and I know that some of you were there. In the old SWC, greatest conference ever, the MOB would make fun of all the visiting schools. When we played then at Rice Stadium one year, the MOB did a parody on ET and called the little alien UT and he lands at a sorority house on campus. Wish that was me. Anyway, it was great, and all the UT fans gave the MOB a standing ovation. The aggys cone to town and the MOB come out at halftime in the shape of a fire hydrant and they made fun of little Reville. When they were finished, aggys were so infuriated with the MOB that the Corp morons actually chased the MOB onto their bus and wouldn't let them out. That is aggy.

The fans were great for some of those games. You couldn't hear anything in the huddle, and it was awesome being in the locker room before the game and hearing the crowd and the band. Having said that, there was one game when the weather was absolutely horrible and there was very little parking for those that drove to the game so most stayed home. We had 17 people show up for the game. 17! I know because I counted every one of them. lol Even if everyone in attendance paid for a ticket, it still wasn't enough to pay our meal money after the game. Great memories.
