  1. Past hour
  2. Definitely. I’m not sure if it is a big human or not thing as much as a fit within the scheme and culture problem. Brooks is massive and could be a great player for us. Agree Turntine is the gem of the OL class this year but if we had gotten a Cantwell, a massive human, I don’t think it would be a mistake.
  3. Dan Neal wouldn’t be a started in today’s football.
  4. Could've sworn I saw a poster on here yesterday say Tony isn't "qualified" to criticize.
  5. The players we have are biproducts of the culture they’re in with regards to our offensive players.
  6. Today
  7. That loss to the Thunder on Tuesday was a heartbreaker. But I was on the edge of my seat the entire game. If Sengun and Amen (I highly doubt Amen is gonna shoot that bad from 3 consistently) continue to play at that level throughout the season, it'll be very interesting to see how aggressive Rafael Stone and the Front Office is for the trade deadline/buyout deadline.
  8. I wonder what Wilt Chamberlain would be like in today’s game. I think he may be the closest comp to Wemby ever, but be was shorter, and much stronger.
  9. Purely coincidence that this drops the night after the NBA opens a new season, right? No one is talking about Wemby's great game or VJ Edgecombe scoring the most points for a rookie in his opener since Wilt Chamberlain or ...
  10. You can’t play poker with the mafia? Dang! …………Ok, I’m back, had to cancel something.
  11. Pitino coached him and Damon Jones in Boston and Rozier at Louisville. Pitino is probably involved is my first instinct.
  12. Billups played at Colorado… no Pitino unless in the pros.
  13. Which is why Turntine will be a far better player than Ojo.
  14. Tony Hills said the same thing.
  15. Dan Neil had a piece on another site and just layed it out perfectly. Texas insistence on “large humans” has been mostly a failure. I realize Dan was undersized and nasty and that is exactly who he says are the type of players Texas needs to pivot to at least at center and guard. He says it won’t get fixed this year and the scheme they ran vs OU should be the gameplan in every game and was incredulous why they didn’t use it vs UK. I realize it’s been said in so many words on here and elsewhere but Dan knows ball and lived it.
  16. One of the most impressive single game performances I have ever watched.
  17. Billups, Rozier and guard Damon Jones who was also arrested all played for Rick Pitino. It was pretty interesting when Rick benched RJ Luis during the tournament game they lost last year. Gambling has been an obvious problem in sports for a long time. Ali/Liston 2 having to be fought in Lewisville, Maine was due to concerns about the integrity of the fight then we saw Liston take the dive. There was a receiver for Texas about 10-15 years ago that I'm convinced to this day was on the take in multiple games and even afterwards when he transferred to Arizona I saw him sell multiple times. I have no proof and that's the scary part. Who controls the accountability? Most of them are in on it too, the factions of deep protection.
  18. I hope so when the Spurs are good the city feels more lively
  19. 1. If you believe that is all there is to the story, I'd say that is highly unlikely. 2. Organizations and individuals can use leverage against those in positions of impact in sports to affect the outcome of games. This is why it is absurd for the NCAA to allow any gambling for college athletes.
  20. …and he’s taller than 7’4”.
  21. That's what he has been arrested for, true. But I'm willing to bet (pun intended) that if you're that deep in with the mafia over poker there is some stuff going on with basketball too. There will be a lot more uncovered in the investigation.
  22. Odd that is comes at the same time as a coach and player from the NBA getting arrested for illegal betting. Nothing to see here.
