    Literally offered Hunter more money 😁

    Mixon isn't a needle mover. 

    Did we get Hunter, no. We might have offered more on the annual salary but did we offer more guarantee money 

    If his philosophy has worked it would be ok but it has failed miserably.  Unless you call making the playoffs twice in 7 years with one playoff win and no division titles successful.

    The thing is if we swing the bay you will miss some but if you never take the hat off of your shoulder you will never get a hit.

    You might disagree with me but the 4 local shows I listen to in the day all are upset with Ballard. They all think he should have been fired the same time Reich was fired.

  2. Houston trades for Stephon Diggs from the Bills. Houston is an example of an organization that goes out and tries to hit some home runs. Lady year they traded up to the 3rd puck to get Will Anderson. This year they have went out and got Hunter, Audrey for their DL. They get Mixon and Diggs for their offense.

    The Colts are stuck with Ballard that wants to just retain his mediocre players and don't go out to try to get his team better. Instead of home runs he likes the Sac bunt.

    All said, I can’t imagine Bryson Tucker came here to sit. Mgbako definitely isn’t going to sit AND his natural position is the 4. So, are they the 3 and 4? And is that why the Louisville dude canceled his visit? I would hope the writing is on the wall, but Woody seemingly likes to shove square pegs into round holes. 
     

    maybe, just maybe, ‘we’ are on the same page.

     

    If you watch this then you will know he isn't coming here to come off the bench

    Agreed. Especially style of play. When you compare it to the Elite Eight teams you see a stark contrast this season. Movement of the ball and the players is a constant in better teams making them difficult to defend. IU had little movement and relied heavily on a post dribbling into a shot while the rest watched.

    However, when they had JHS the season before with the size and strength to get by defenders, the offense looked more in line with the best teams. 

    CMW didn't adjust to his talent or lack thereof at the guard position. 

    You also see at least two teams that are playing in the post. The only team that doesn't have a true center is Alabama

     I think it shows you can play through the post but it is what you do with the other 4 players off of the post the player.

  5. just watched this episode and it is not the most flattering picture of this recruitment.

    Basically said he is a very good player but his handlers are making all of his decisions for him. One said what he heard we paid him is astronomical and is way touch for him. I am afraid that things like this will kill the locker room because we are buying our roster and not constructing the roster.

    You have your opinion, i have mine.  I just don't like it.  same if in a baseball field, they had weird colored infields or outfields with designs that made it hard to see the ball, i probably wouldn't like that either.

    But its only my opinion.  I respect yours.  Enjoy.  I am done with this conversation.

    I don't like Oregon's court but I like seeing different varieties of courts. That is why I hated when the tournament changed to having the same bland court for all tournament venues.

    They thought they knew us. Easiest draw. Playing close to home with refs favoring you. We know you think you deserve it. 

    In 1987 we got to play in Indy and Cincinnati so we had that kind of path as well. In 2002 we beat a 12, 13, 1, 10 to get to the final four
