    Are there two Andrija Jelavic’s?

    Dioubate did not improve, by the numbers, this season. Aberdeen absolutely did.

    Nice To See JQ Getting Work In…

    Are you alleging that he was NOT even putting shots up previously?

    Garrison to the portal

    Per-40, Jelavic scored fewer points on more attempts than Dioubate.

    POLL: How Many Starters Do We HAVE to ADD to the ROSTER ??

    I said 3, and we need a couple of them to be elite level players. Moreno and one of Chandler/Williams starting the other as a key reserve.

    I asked Grok AI to build us a championship roster.

    Why do you think anyone cares what the AI told you? If I wanted to know what some AI bot says, I'd ask the AI bot. All you're doing is telling us BOTH that you can't think for yourself AND that you have no idea how to interact with other humans.

    Scheyer’s last three tournaments…

    Very silly question, yes a coach who went to the FF last year and regional final this year "survives." The fanbase would be asking lots of questions though and doubting he could get over the hump. He's looking like he's just being carried by elite talent but gets outcoached in big games.

    The hatred and personal attacks are childish, and frankly, embarrassing, and..

    It's not about "having thick skin." I don't know that I've ever reported something directed at me. My problem is every thread devolving into a flame war between the same clowns over and over. It makes it impossible to sustain a discussion about anything.

    I was talking with I think another mod recently, I don't have a report button. There have to be others, as well. Not sure why but this is consistent across different PCs, different browsers, mobile....

    There are other UK fan spaces (reddit, discord, WCN forums) and people there aren't, generally, any more optimistic about Pope than people here. But this place is uniquely juvenile and uniquely toxic. Lots of people here are committed to being miserable every moment of every day, reminding you...

    Quinn Ellis next UK PG?

    People get confused because there are so many different leagues and levels in Europe. They see "Euro guys" who were playing pro come over and struggle in the NCAA and think there's no good basketball in Europe. Jelavic (and Ivisic) played in the Adriatic league. There are national leagues. But...

    How much different would our season had been if Pope's entire roster, Lowe, JQ, CW played all year?

    I agree with those saying we probably win a few more games, get a double bye in SEC tourney. There were plenty of games where the starters were playing well enough but we fell apart with subs - add these guys and we're playing less of the guys who just couldn't perform. We still aren't beating...

    Stephen A thinks Kenny Smith should be the UNC HC

    Stephen A's job is to create engagement bait

    5 Double Digit Blowout Losses

    Add to it a double digit loss to A&M, and 4 more games (Louisville, Florida x3) where we were getting the snot knocked out of us but made the final score look respectable.

    Trying to strategically decide who to pull for now.

    Yeah I've been cheering hard for Saint John's to come out of that bracket. I wouldn't be mad at Michigan State but everybody else in it I'd hate. And then I'd be cool with Arizona, Purdue, Houston, even Iowa St if they could pull it off.

    Grade This Season

    An F is missing the tournament. We made the tournament and won a game, we got a few good wins through the season (we beat 3, could be 4 of the sweet 16 teams). So that elevates the season to a D. But with 14 total losses, multiple noncompetitive games, bottom half of SEC, out in the SEC...
