    i also served in the usmc as a combat veteran in Vietnam. I agree with you 100% that he and everyone else has the right to take a knee. i may not agree with taking a knee, but I would never, ever say anything to anyone about their first amendment right. I also agree with tume of his post on page 1.

    Manhattan game thread.

    lets get something straight right now. I never got uptight and there is nothing for me to get over. I never got sarcastic or rude as you seem to be implying. I'm sure uredskin54 would have replied if he thought I was being rude or sarcastic, which I was speaking in jest, humor. I never got...

    Manhattan game thread.

    nice to see the ball go inside and then out to an open shooter. Henderson was open a couple of times and the ball stayed inside. I do not care who is open, pass the ball. frank always talks about paint touches, but there is few inside out movement. pumped is not the word I would have used...

    PV A&M game thread

    you are spot on. we had 10 turn overs after 11 1/2 minutes of the first half. the 6 TO you speak of are credited to the starters. puzzling to say the least.

    Kansas St Game Thread

    nice try. I have never met any of the current players, including Lawson. what I see and write about is how I see it and nobody will change my mind except the players, if they state playing a lot better. I appreciate your attempt at humor as I laughed when I read it. I do laugh at myself sometimes.

    you would think that would be correct. someone should tell the coaching staff. but I do not think they are listening or even care.

    yes, a win is a win, etou has 15 turn overs in the last 2 games. I believe he is trying to do too much as he has no help from some players. wheeler and Henderson do nothing. their passing, ball handling and defense is terrible. wheeler rebounds well from the guard position and Henderson scores a...

    Agree. scott, Jefferies, igbanu, korita, artisan only have I year of d1 experience as freshmen. wheeler has I year of d1 experience out of juco. Henderson has 2 years of d1 experience. taplin has 2years of d1 experience. etou has 3 years o d1 experience. joiner and Jackson have no d1...

    Tulane Game Thread Part Deux

    I agree on what you say, but I would like to clear up one thing. I did not say that korita was going to be as good or better than juice or shaq. no one know that right now. all I did was compare the three of them on 3 point % as freshmen. as for commenting down on other players who play the...

    Tulane Game Thread Part Deux

    thank you for reading my posts. I am not talking down anyone. I am just stating my opinion, just like everyone else on this board. I have watched every game for the past 37 years and have all this years games recorded. I am retired , so I have lots of time to watch these recorded games and see...

    Tulane Game Thread Part Deux

    he has done this all season. drive and force the shot at the rim and either shoot and miss, turn it over or throw it away. hardly ever kicks it out to an open player when he drives inside.

    you are correct. korita has a left wrist injury and has missed several games. could have used his passing and ball handling today.

    Tulane

    everyone teaches it, except we pull in from the outside to help defend the middle and do not rotate out to the corner fast enough. that creates open looks. we play a 2/3 matchup zone which leaves the middle open, which causes the help defense to pull deep inside and the rotation does not get to...

    Tulane

    the one who has the ball after it crosses the mid court line normally goes one on one. this is not always the case in juco, but sadly is what happens most of the time. Henderson got out of the juco mold after about 3/4 of the season and wheeler did not. I do not think wheeler has much of an...

    Tulane

    I agree. magnay and kortia, I believe will be fine. shaq and juice their freshmen year was not very good as was taplins. Jeffries and scott should be ok, but I believe the two incoming freshmen may struggle a bit as freshmen tend to do. hopefully they pick up the scheme better than atson and...
