[ukpence]

What's everyone's thoughts on Poplar? He just entered the transfer portal.

 

[Coach Marrow]

I anticipate he’s gonna be real poplar in the portal

Was a projected 1st rounder back in Nov.

Javon Small to Miami then?

I don't have any inside information, but that would certainly add up.

Pretty solid guard, one of the only good outside threats Miami had and when he got hurt they crumbled as we all saw. He was instrumental in their run 2 years ago I believe. They had Wooga, Isaiah Wong, and Nigel Pack was the star.

Would be a pretty good nickname for my tool.

 

[Jkwo_rivals113955]

If we get him, everybody needs to chip in to ebay some old timey 20s car horns to properly equip the student section.

I thought we might be speaking in tongues … lol

 

[Drcats2025]

He’s tall as a tree. They’ll be sad when he leaves. He really sprouted this year.

 

[Pygmy Sasquatch]

He's not yellow

I think Wooga will be sought after by several teams, but by your comment, I think you may have him confused with his cousin, Mega.

 

[Kingslayer07]

No thanks.

Wood think so

Miami was one of the handful of teams that were worse than us on Defense. Probably a system thing, like it was here. I can't imagine a player being that athletic and not being able to play Defense if properly instructed. Even half assed defense would be better than watching guards get beat and praying a big could swat a shot or two. Sorry about that soapbox...that spot is still a little tender, I reckon. Wooga can play, though.

Contact: do it.

Cornering the market on great names.

Man. Names have really evolved over the years haven't they?

 

[Stretch98_rivals101536]

I was impressed with Poplar when UK played Miami this season. He scored 19 and showed a lot of ability. Nigel Pack is the ballyhooed Cane who contributed zilch.

I agree and Poplar seemed to be the only go that showed up in that game.

FIFY

Do parents name their kids these names or are they nicknames?

Most kids have normal names like buh lak ay, Jay qwellin, dee nice and A A Ron.

I think lots of parents name their kids after cartoon characters. Some very odd names ,

For a lot of these folks, it's a play on their ancestry, but they don't even know where the Atlantic Ocean is.
