    Which one of you is Howard from KSR Post Game Show?

    Yeah that's all I got as well. It's like listening to a Biden speech. It's just a loosely grouped collection of words. I have no idea if he was making a good point or not.

    Once Highly Touted, Now Forgotten

    No way Bowie belongs on that list. Not only the injuries but he ended up being a pretty good NBA player for a 10+ years. Career averages of 10pt and 7 reb. At his peak he was averaging around 15pts and 8rbs. Not hall of fame numbers but hardly a bust.

    Once Highly Touted, Now Forgotten

    Yep that's it. I still remember Clark Francis hyping the hell out of him.

    Once Highly Touted, Now Forgotten

    Totally remember Felipe Lopez. He was hyped and hyped and hyped and then you finally get to see him and he was mediocre at best. That was when I started not believing what the recruiting experts say. There was another one that I forget the name of. 6'11" guy that was supposed to be the next...

    Who Remembers This……What Really Happened

    The door and Hunter McClintock threads were my favorite.

    Malik Monk's high school dunks revisited

    Yeah I typically hate the blame the refs crowd, but that game was really obvious. If I remember right the NCAA reps had a discussion with the refs about it during the half.

    Black unis?

    Liked it. Didn't like the fonts but the uniforms looked great overall.

    Bahama Takeaways after 4 games

    I'll go out on a limb and list a starting five that isn't the best 5 but the best for the game opening. Oscar, Toppin, Collins, Wallace Wheeler The reason I'd do that is that Collins is going to win 100% of the opening jumps. I'd then give it five minutes. If Collins is doing well then we...

    CONGRESS GETTING INVOLVED WITH NIL.... This is going to be a mess

    Agreed. Something needs to be done but it should be the NCAA. Unfortunately the NCAA is a deer in the headlights right now.

    How far does Cal need to go in the tourney to appease the masses ?

    There's not really a perfect answer to that. The tournament is a crap shoot. It's a fun format but it's not a great indicator of how good the team was. Say for example if we go unbeaten during the season but lose in the sweet 16, would I be ok with that? Yes I would. We have to in some fashion...

    Why was platooning in 2015 so bad for the program?

    It really wasn't. It actually worked really well. The problem was that Cal was doing it at the same time as he was filling their heads with this straight to the NBA stuff. The kids he was recruiting were being told they didn't have to be patient. They can have it now. If you are trying to get to...

    Barnhart finally says no to whiny Cal

    If that's the case then it's a dumb reason.

    Great article about Sharpe - just when I had given up on anyone having something new to say

    He's not down playing it. He actually states it up front. He's just pointing out the flaw in this infinite upside evaluation. The problem with these mystery box prospects is that it's way more likely that he will be a bust than a superstar. As I stated on another thread, if I'm an NBA GM there...

    Isaiah Briscoe on CBS right now

    The problem with Briscoe is he should never have been used at the 3. He was around for the beginning of Cal's "just give me 5 players and I'll figure out where to play them later" approach.
