The most overrated phenomenon in sports. I've been in a couple. If a team is together, they can marginally and temporarily reinforce that but probably not enough to affect the outcome of a game. If the team is divided, they usually do more harm than good.

I'll continue the trend and say I hope not, not a lot of good comes from them. I think this is why Cal is going the it's on me route, as those meetings can divide and kill teams.

A players only meeting followed by a sports psychologist session and a feel-good team building activity like dodgeball.
That's all folks.....end of season.

Good grief. ..the ol players only meeting...it's like coach speak but for players. It's dumb, overused and more than likely accomplishes nothing. It shouldn't take a players only meeting to get players to play, if coaches can't get them to do it the players who aren't doing it aren't going to be able to get one another to do it! The 'players only meeting' is as worn out as the celebrity checking into rehab for whatever slur or comment they've made.

They talk to each other everyday. Chemistry either happens or it doesn't. And it occurs on the court, not in some meeting.

Boogie held the post game speech to the team last night.
Karl said he loved it.
I wish our bigs had one 10th of boogie's will to win.
Karl went on and on about boogie's desire to win

Lol, you all think they haven't had several meetings by now? Don't they spend most of every day together? You guys think they haven't talked or made promises to each other? It doesn't have to be formal and it doesn't have to make the ESPN top ten but I guarantee these kids have all sat down and hashed it out.

Equivalent of the dreaded "vote of confidence".
Basically a public acknowledgment of "stick a fork in, we're done".

I don't know if I would say that. You know our football team had several players only meetings this year and, oh wait...

Cousins has a ton of basketball talent. But I nearly throw up whenever anyone tries to suggest Cousins is a 'leader.'

I did not call him a "leader".
I relayed Karl's account of him. And his coach was eluding to the point that makes YOU throw up.
