    March 22 1975... 42 years ago today. What are your memories of this game ?

    You are making that assertion to the WRONG man. You see, I know, first hand, for it to be absolutely false. People claiming such things generally invoke the name of the late Sam Gilbert here...But, they generally know very little about what they are talking about...Most of what you hear, even...

    March 22 1975... 42 years ago today. What are your memories of this game ?

    Well....I've been lurking. Trying to stay out of the main threads here...just don't want to end up with anything of an argument with you guys. But, this particular thread brought back some memories... You see, I really have no great recollection of THAT game...But I do have some great memories...

    Do we have a post presence?

    You've got as much of a "post presence" as just about anyone in college basketball. Bam will likely end up a PF in the NBA, but, on the college level, he's far more than adequate. There just aren't that many high quality prototype big men around...and with all of the early entries to the pros...

    Finally watched the game. A few thoughts.

    First, I think what we saw was TWO very good college basketball teams...Both should win a ton of games and go far in the tourney. Both could win the title if things fall right. As a Bruin, I am happy to have won, but for you guys, I would think you should recognize that your team has nothing...

    Lonzo Ball and his younger brothers..

    Actually, both younger brothers have committed to UCLA...and LiAngelo signed his Letter of Intent to UCLA in the early signing period. Another interesting note is that LaMelo is actually way to young for his high school class. They moved him ahead a grade so he could play at least one year in...

    UCLA board says they only have 7 scholarship players for Saturday.

    Even though it's a bit late now, I was just perusing the board and thought I'd come back here and clarify this one. UCLA, basically, has 11 scholarship players. There were 13 (the NCAA limit) before the season... except one player, Jonah Bolden, failed out of school over the summer and turned...
