GYERO ARCHIVE

[BLUEHILLS]

Hoya Paranoia was badass back in the day.

Michael Graham still haunts after all these years.

Not seen them in years but a few Georgetown players wore these Nike Legends hi tops that laced halfway up their shins.

"John Thompson, you and your teams scare us!"

"GOOD!"-John Thompson

 

[bradyjames_rivals]

Ever since the 1984 Final Four I have hated Patrick Ewing, John Thompson and any other Hoya. They can go get pumped now and forever.

3-33

 

[anthonys735]

100, if you give the same odds as Vegas

That's not what you said but what are the odds?

 

[tallkat70]

Circa 1984, Georgetown was only behind UNC, IU and Louisville as the teams I hated the most. 80's LSU would have rounded out that Top 5.

 

[krazykats]

That's not what you said but what are the odds?

Not set yet, but why would I give the field and not want odds?

Assuming they are a 2/3 seed, I’d guess 8/1 to 10/1

Because you didn't expect someone to take you up. I'll do it at half odds.

 

[Wynn Duffy 69]

In a way it actually is. Who in the hell saw him taking Iona to the NCAAT? He's a great, great coach. One of the best in the modern era.

Total hypothetical -

Tomorrow, Cal abruptly announces that he’s been battling some personal demons; depression, anxiety. He’s resigning to take a sabbatical and get healthy. Looking for a new start in 2022.

So...what do we do?

 

[cricket3]

Doesn’t saying you’ll take some one against the field imply an even line? If you get odds you’re just making a normal bet.

 

[Ron Mehico]

Whatever the hell krazy is trying to bet I’m in.

Only game that ever made a young AW cry. I was 10 and remember it like it was yesterday. Ended up in the driveway after the game, with the lights on, shooting for an hour. Couldn’t miss, which made me even more mad.

I think Holtman is the obvious one who would take the job - and that’s a solid “lock.”

The others you reach out to:

Brad Stevens
Nate Oats
Chris Beard

Stevens is a pipe dream.

Oats would take it.

Beard - who knows?

 

[VernHatton52]

I'd give Scott Drew strong consideration as well.

 

[krazykats]

Ok then I tell you what. I’ll take it at even odds 100 vs 100, if you take a 100 even bet on every one of their games too.

Edit: to be fair make that from the S16 on as the first 2 rounds are Ws.

 

[cricket3]

So he’s just giving you $100 every time Texas wins and then you give him $100 when they lose? [laughing]

Hell of a deal anth better hop on that.

 

[wcc31]

I'd give Scott Drew strong consideration as well.

Sure- the shocking thing is that Drew and Beard are obvious choices for Indiana - but they keep shitting down their leg.

 

[krazykats]

Well, depends when he thinks they’ll lose.

Also, GFY. Anth is a big enough boy to handle his own, doesn’t need a twerp like you involved in his conversation.

 

[UKwizard]

So Fletcher leaves midseason gets talked back, rides the pine as would be expected then bolts 2 days after the season ends anyways. Why did he bother coming back and why did we take him back the first go?

 

[cricket3]

krazy I think you’re great even if you think I’m a twerp.

 

[wcc31]

I want continuity but dammit we have 45 modern 4/5s next year. Thin the herd. I do NOT (but will) see Brooks/Toppin/Hopkins at the 3 next year and it’s already pissing me off.

 

[BristolCat_rivals158386]

Krazy pays his bets, just saying.

 

[krazykats]

Not very GYERO, imo.

 

[anthonys735]

You said UT vs the field. I'll take that. Offered 4-1.

Maybe it was a situation where the kid needed to grow up a little and Cal offered him the chance to salvage his image. Come back, show you aren’t a punk, and we will gladly help you latch on somewhere else. I’m just grasping straws here.

That's my read on it.

 

[Ahnan E. Muss]

Yeah, that's probably it.

Plus, with the covid situation, and the open transfer rules and free eligibility and all that, there was no rush to transfer mid year to get eligible as soon as possible at his new location.

 

[krazykats]

I should be so thankful.

- GaTech actually looked good tonight to win the ACC. Of course FSU turning it over 25+ times certainly helped.

- Cheering hard for Oregon State to take away one of the last chances Duke has to get in.

Kooky, what kind of grinder are you using for the espresso?

Musselman?

I’d like to see us go all in on shooting and try to get Powell, Frederick, keep Allen and Mintz (play Mintz at point if you have to) and already in the portal is a suped up Nate Sestina from Bucknell. John Meeks 6-6 a face up 4 who averaged 25 a game 39% from 3 and 8 rebounds this year. Only played 6 games though due to injury and covid (team only played 12 games total).

If you were to somehow get Antigua on staff you also might get in on Nimari Burnett a Texas Tech transfer that’s looking at Illinois who was a McDonald’s All American last year and didn’t have a great freshman year but is very talented. And this may be a little far fetched but maybe André Curbelo follows Antigua here too. He’s a 6-1 pg freshman who was Big Ten 6th man of the year that Antigua was the lead recruiter on.

 

[dgtatu01]

Got a nice beach 🏖 vacation happening in two weeks.

Any Charleston recs? I always go on a carriage ride each trip, have been out to Fort Sumpter, water taxi rides, is there a must when I go? Kind of thinking Rich or SAE may weigh in here but any rec would be cool.

Round of golf at Wild Dunes?

 

[dgtatu01]

Pitino one win away from taking IONA to the tournament. Love him or hate him, he’s an amazing coach and highly entertaining.

Maybe one of the best basketball minds ever. He can flat get the most out of a player too. Too dang egocentric to realize how much going to Louisville was going to change how he was viewed by UK fans.

 

[IsRichieGonnaStart]

Cawood...Poe’s Tavern on Sullivan’s Island is a great lunch and beer spot.

Dinner downtown.. Hank’s has always been my favorite. Great seafood and I love the bar scene pre dinner. Top shelf talent in the joint.

Rooftop cocktails... The Vendue Inn.

Big Poe's fan here as well.

Chris beard sucks, write that down.

 

[legalbeagle123]

Clearly, Fletcher was enjoying his freshman classes at UK and wanted to finish those out.

 

[cut_itloosedoubledeuce]

If cal leaves, you call stevens first. When he says no, you then call holtmann and oats. First to accept gets it. Drew and musselman after that. Don’t think holtmann turns it down.

2 years in a row that we don’t get to watch selection Sunday and map out the quest for #9.
