  1. I agree but there is one difference. He doesn't have the Alabama defense behind him. At Bama, he knew that the opposing team probably wouldn't get to 20 points. Now its a different ballgame and he may be faced with more pressure situations than he's used to.
  2. I love this but I am more of an Earth Wind and Fire guy so get to work.
  3. I like this. Are you the Indian, er, Native American or the Police Officer?.
  4. Correct. I try to show a little bit of courtesy to the recruits and players. I also say Coach Smart and Coach Barnes almost always. It is my thing and its no big deal.
  5. Thanks for making my point. You think that the number of reps someone has actually means anything. Most of the time, it doesn't.
  6. Wrong, the difference is that I have an understanding of recruiting and you're a fucking idiot. You have no clue about this young man other than what is regurgitated on this board. You have no clue about recruiting other than what you read here. You're fooling yourself into thinking that you know far more than you actually do.
  7. Let's cut this young man some slack. 99% of posters here have no idea what its like to be recruited. Coaches who are for the most part good salesmen are trying to convince a 17 year old that he needs to come to their school. This young man like most recruits is being pulled in many different ways. Some may care about the young man and some may not. Maybe this young man has some character issues. So did every one of us when we were 17. We have kids in college that screw up. Maybe he doesn't have a solid support system at home like most of us did. This young man could turn out to be a lottery pick or could be a bench warmer for his entire career. No one knows until he has a chance to prove himself. If he comes to Texas great. If he choses another school wish him well.
  8. You don't know that and probably neither does anyone else. This is a young man who is 17 and being pulled in different directions by grown ups. Maybe he doesn't have a good support system like many kids so. Maybe his school doesn't have great resources to give him extra academic support like many schools do. We have had kids suspended. Are they flakes? You have had kids in college and the pros that have committed crimes. Is this kid that bad. Why is he a drama queen. Because he hasn't picked our school yet? Some kids honestly don't know what to do. This may be the young man's first major life decision and all of this is new to him. Why don't we give this young man a chance. Regardless of where he goes, lets see if college works. Lets see what he does when he has a support system. Lets see what happens when he has academic support and lets see what happens when he is around teammates and coaches that will give him a hug when appropriate and will kick his ass when he needs it. Having said that, if you or anyone else actually knows the young man well, I will defer to you.
  9. Mac, for those of us on the computer, anywhere we can go? Thanks.
  10. There is only one flagship university in Texas and its not yours, aggy.
  11. If you really loved your husband, the banner would have said.....Bru Go To Texas.
  12. If this is the standard you're using. You need to be gone asap.
  13. Rocky, when you're in high school and are a D1 prospect, with a few exceptions, you're probably the best athlete on the court. You may only have to play say at 70% to be successful in getting your points, rebounds, etc. Now you step up to the next level and everyone is as talented as you,, stronger than you and more experienced than you. Now you have to give 100% and for longer periods of time. If you have to play too many minutes, by February, your legs are gone so its important to keep an eye on a young kids playing time. Its like training for your first marathon. In the early stages, you're going to be sore until your legs start to adjust to the increased level of training.
  14. Rocky, moral victories are for aggys. Having said that, there is much to be excited about. The Michigan State guards may be the best combo we face this year. They made some amazing shots and you give them credit. I thought we battled really hard on the boards but the stats don't show that because we missed so many shots. As we play more, the kids will learn that when the other team is making a run, stay calm and don't rush shots. Take that extra beat when taking a shot. There is no way to score 8 points on a single shot. I do agree with Mac that they ran out of gas. Thats going to happen to young kids. They will learn from these 2 games and hopefully it will pay off during conference and in March.. .
  15. No, the problem is what you said AND that you said it. Your opinion is always right and everyone else is always wrong. You're wrong a lot more that you're right. No one cares that your feelings got hurt when Coach Smart became our newest coach and since you haven't been paying attention, last night he beat a Hall of Fame coach and tonight, he gave another HOF coach all he could handle. Like I said earlier,, go start your own thread.
  16. Maybe aggy should be more concerned with finishing the regular season over .500 against Powre5 schools. If it wasn't for non Powre5 schools, aggy would have more time to recruit young men that may actually be SEC good. .
  17. You're the idiot because you have no clue what you're talking about. There is a lot more to development than being in the gym. You think that because you see something on social media, you know whats going on. You have no clue. You don't know crap about Roach or any other player.. You're a fan who thinks that he knows more than you do. And you didn't answer 512's question. Do the board a favor. Go start your own thread...Shaka Sucks and just make all of your posts there. That way we can actually have discussions with out our resident fan know it all. And on the thread, you can whine about Ehlinger as I believe you have done on the past.
  18. Not the coaches job? Thats absurd even for you. You have no idea how much time he spends with his players. Does that go for Coach Barnes as well or is it just you attempting to take a cheap shot at Coach Smart.
  19. Being the camp counselor doesn't work? Exactly how many practices have you participated in to come up with that?
