  1. Catdaddy, I understand your point but lets use a football example. Would you rather root for a team like Tech that can be really exciting but is .500 or the Purple Wizard whose teams are more fundamentally sound and conservative but has a better record? Maybe its a personal preference.
  2. What I do know is that I know more than a piece of trash like you. Putz.
  3. Quit using the Erwin Center as an excuse. I have probably been to more college gyms than anyone on this board. We went to some really bad gyms like the old Barnhill. It had dirt around the court. It had wooden bleachers and behind the bleachers, they had a batting cage and pens for the FFA animals. And yet, the fans would show because they were fans. The Holler House had a corrugated steel wall behind one of the baskets with no seating but they showed because they supported their team.. Fans will either show because they're fans or they won't.
  4. You say that as a joke but in prehistoric times, rims would be slightly tightened or loosened and something our resident expert didn't know is that if we were playing a team that liked to run more than we did, our managers would put new nets on the rim and not stretch them out so when the ball went through the nets, it would be slowed down a little giving us an extra second to get back on defense. Thats called the home court advantage.
  5. Did you know his Dad?
  6. Then why isn't he coaching at a Power 5 school with a resume like that. And before you make a total fool out of yourself, I know far more about him and his Dad than you do so don't pull that crap on me.
  7. Good job guys. You may not always play well but when you keep playing hard, good things can happen.
  8. Thats racist ✡️😀
  9. Welcome to the Longhorn Basketball Family. We have a long tradition of Bakers wearing burnt orange. OK, a short tradition but welcome!
  10. I actually see a little greggym in Kai.
  11. when he wasn't gassing my family.
  12. I recognize that you're trying to be an asshole and you have succeeded. I am aware of the problems they had years ago. That doesn't mean they haven't done good work.
  13. I've never lived there but there is a great non profit called Cal Farley's Boys and Girls Ranch. Given them money when possible since the early 70s. They do a great job with at risk kids. As a matter of fact, there was a big kid from there that played football for Baylor a few years ago. Its tough to root for Baylor but I did for that young man.
  14. I would like to believe this but we were told the same thing about the Drum. 5 years later, everything was ready to go.
  15. Thats the greggym option since 1970.
  16. You don't get it. Have a great day.
  17. The G league is no guarantee.
  18. In my opinion, if he wants to get to the league, he needs to be back 100%. Taking an extra year is not a big deal if it gives him a better chance to make the league. He's 20.
  19. 12, I am speaking as a former letterman and a cancer survivor. I realize that I was older than Andrew when I went through my treatments. While going through some nasty treatments, I was out running everyday but I wasn't the same and I doubt he is either. If he wants to go pro, his body needs time to recover. He can still have a normal life by going to class and going to practice but not necessarily competing. I get it about the doctors but I am looking longer term and not just this season.
  20. Good post.
  21. He needs to redshirt this year.
  22. If DKR was still AD, that would probably happen. Although being on/close to campus is no guarantee of student attendance, its even less likely that students will get in their cars or take some type of transportation to a game.
  23. You can have 16k seats but you have to have the right configuration. In the day, the Marriott at Center at BYU was the largest gym in the country at roughly 22k but if I remember correctly, it was one level and the slope was so gradual , the gym wasn't nearly as loud as it should have been. Have as many fans as is possible as close to the floor as you can and you'll have a great atmosphere. Just don't build a gym that is everything to everyone. You build it for hoops and if you want concerts there, its in a hoops configuration.
  24. I would love to see about 10k seats at Gregory. The problem is that its an old building and you would need to do a big remodel. For example, our locker rooms are now offices and because the structure is old, I am not sure it would work. They can tear it down and build a similar structure but not until I am dead and buried.
