I'm cracking up thinking about little o'le Spike running around out there with our Monstar squad, splashing wide open 3s. Please let it happen.

Really think Chuck makes a huge jump this year, so wing is ok.

Also think Dom has a nice little SR. year. Filling in for Fox / Monk. I do not mean 2pts a game either. I think he raises his bar a tad, gets the 3 stroke improved, he had a nice one in HS.

Bam is a freshman, freshman make mistakes and sometimes reach instead of moving (most have not had to play d against someone of their size / caliber in HS.). Foul trouble can, and will plague him in a few games. Humphries and Lee ? No, give me all the athletic big bodies I can get. Bolden, please, pretty please sign with UK. Like Humphries for the energy he gave us, but do not trust that he can be anything more than spot duties for a few minutes a game. Lee, definitely not counting on him every game.

After two straight "skill" classes, we're back to the long, freaky athletic class. Bam, Monk and Gabriel are all aliens. #:alien: Fox and SKJ are pretty damn long and athletic, too.

The interesting thing will be how the vets fit in. Briscoe, Hawkins, Lee, Humphries and Willis should all play major roles.

-OK, us reaching back out to Allen makes me worried about Bolden. That's a bad sign. The 5 guys that picked Duke yesterday didn't really bother me at all after looking at who they were. We had all but dropped contact with Allen.

-That setup for the skills challenge was awful. Just put it in a damn gym.

-Hoop Summit is the best event anyway. McD's is getting lapped at this point.

-Running faster than I have in a couple years, crazy what dropping a few lbs does to help your pace, also makes running 1000x's more enjoyable when you're not out there slogging along/embarrassed by your fat waddle.

-MFP is the only way to keep weight down and off for me. It's 75% diet.

-Derby jacket delivered yesterday, it's f*cking sweet. :cool2:

-This class has some characters. Hoping Bam takes the MKG role. Dude seems to be all business.

-Louisville man rule #87 - make it appear you're not intentionally shoving a 60 year old referee.

-MCF is apparently digging through a bunch of my old stuff from HS/College and found some spring break pictures and a copy of the Tommy/Pam porn. I need to check out that box. :smiley:

Gotta give KGAR credit on his latest piece taking down the NYT. I told you to just wait, and the big boys would come down to your level!

It's pretty embarrassing for the New York Times to put out such an awful and inaccurate piece - KGAR basically threw his **** into the 15th row. I guess with all the budget cuts, they don't have anyone who can do fact checking.

Also, since when are the 1 and dones only on campus 5 months? Sept-March at a minimum is 7 months, 8 with April assuming they don't bounce post tournament. And many come in early in the summer. For a bunch of eggheads, these northeast writers can't even count.

o_O Where's KAT's class?

I'd put KAT, Booker, Ulis, and Lyles at #3, Wall's class #1, Davis and MKG #2. #4 would be the Harrison's class. Noel's class would be dead last.

Well, when you add Wynard to 2016, it's #1 by a mile.

Also, how are you ranking this? Based on recruit rankings or actual bball talent? Because I'd have Towns, Booker, Ulis, Lyles ahead of 2013. They had 3 lotto picks including the #1 overall pick, and 3 guys who will actually be in the league for the foreseeable future, plus consensus AA Tyler Ulis who is a probably R1 pick and bbdk's favorite player of all time. 2013 has Randle and a bunch of Dleaguers/Euro players.

Noel was a top 10 pick.
WCS a consensus all american, DPOY, 2 Final 4's, Lotto pick
Poythress 2 Final Fours
Goodwin 1st Rd pick still playing in the NBA

They were missing a reliable pg and Nerlen's knee.

Not sure about the current crew, but I'm hoping I feel the need to put them at #1 next April.

Cal pretty much said that about Alex's class. Said if they had good guards that class would have been part of a great team their frosh year. Instead we had a head case.

I ranked it by current knowledge and achievement at UK. 2,3 and 4 are pretty hard.

2013 also was the heart of 2 Final Four runs and our highest rated incoming class to date.

1. Davis, MKG, Wiltjer, Teague

National Title. Greatest Wildcat of all-time. MKG was 2nd Team AA and one of the best energy/D guys of all-time. Teague starting PG on a champion. Wiltjer eventually became an All-American.

2. Wall, Cousins, Bledsoe, Orton

Most star power, but unbalanced because of how hastily Cal had to put it together.

3. KAT, Ulis, Booker, Lyles

Given bigger roles, arguably #1.

4. Knight, Lamb, Jones,

Underrated. First F4 in 13 years. Knight and Lamb both turned out to be among the most clutch Wildcats ever. Jones was a huge cog on two terrific teams.

5. Harrisons, Randle, Young, Lee, Willis

Most amazing tournament run of my life followed by the most amazing season of my life.

6. Poythress, Noel, Goodwin, WCS

A bust, an injury, a hardly-knew-ya and WCS who became an AA and redeemed the class somewhat

7. Murray, Briscoe, Skal, Matthews

Basically just Murray but Briscoe and Matthews have a chance at redemption

Just call Chip and Joanna.

I can't wait for that relationship to implode in spectacular fashion. My wife thinks they are the cutest couple (along with all the other hens).

I tried to explain to her that Waco is home to so much cult behavior and Baylor is a breeding ground for wackjobs.

I'm going with Chip getting caught sucking off strange men in a porn theater. That or meth.

welp, turns out I'm buying an old *** house and redoing it so hahahaha kill me now
How old we talkin'?

I'm picturing an early 19th century Federal style home being stripped bare and all of the interior walls being replaced with chevron patterned rustic barn doors

It's a 90 year old house we're going to remodel into a 19th century federal style barn, remove the doors for better flow, and craft an indoor second floor balcony out of reclaimed gibbets.

How many vintage card file cabinets are you going to use for quirky, if impractical, storage? I would suggest direct messaging the brax brothers from hgtv, those guys are off the chain imo
