Well we are not the only ones anyways
Jan 22, 2025 11:37 PM #1

Been surfing around watching other pod casts and fan base's Been hearing quite a bit from them just like what we have been saying/ discussing.- -Other schools like Arkansas- - -Indiana - ---Baylor-- -K/State - -& Gonzaga to name a few.
s

These schools mentioning some of the same thigs we are like at Baylor. Their saying something just isn't or doesn't seem right , things just don't fit. Wrong plyers for the system they are running Rotation needing changed, players that need to be seeing the court less & others seeing it more, then talk going on like wondering if something is going on /is wrong in the locker room. Like player disruption, kinda like AJ, there is a reason Aj has been to what seven different schools in the last seven years- - -a cancer- -just doesn't fit. - One thing I have heard multiple times AJ is like a black hole the ball may go to him but your not getting it back.

Then you got Coach Cal, their fan base ready to run him out of town on a rail in his first Season. Fans saying he needs to retire that the game of Basketball has past him by , again player rotation With the players/talent he has and they are 0-5 in the SEC not cutting it

Then you have Indiana I do not know how Woodson is still their Mutiple issues Nil & Rotation and playing time

Then you have K/state and Tang, they went out threw all the NIL money trying to buy the best players money could buy, not caring about how they fit with other players just bought them up not thinking-- just not a fit -- not the right fit , players not caring just looking at NIL. Terrble with the NIL and getting wrong players from the portal

Then Gonzaga , they started out just curb stomping Baylor, made you think whoaaa Baylor pretty decent team and Gonzaga kicks them by forty. Now look at Gonzaga , not even in the top twenty five- - they have issues When was the last time we have seen Gonzaga not ranked in the top twenty five ?- -Just a crazy season going on with this NIL & Portal
Then

Yeah, I used to read Rupp Rafters every now and then just for fun.

I see that more as a statement about fans, and our expectations, than about teams and coaching.

I think the players today have more problems with focus. Probably because their upbringing on video games and electronics.

@drgnslayr and how much money they're going to make. And which school they'll jump to in a few months.

Jan 24, 2025 12:00 PM #5

I’ve always found the prospect of making money to increase my focus. My clients appreciated that trait.

Jan 24, 2025 12:36 PM #6

@HoraceZontal I bet they do

@drgnslayr I think you nailed it. Not sure the work ethics of some of these guys.

Kj not able to develop a jumper over 4 years or Juan beefing up any????

I remember the Morrrii shooting 1,000 top of the 3 keys a day

I remember devontae calling his Momma at 1 am to say he made it home safe. She said. - boy were you out partying and he said nah Momma I’ve been in the gym getting up shots.

Different work ethics….

We need to be strong with the ball like not picking up your dribble and know where your sharp accurate pass is going. KJ if healthy is a good ball handler and passer and so is Hunter and so is Juan. It comes down to Shak, Coit, Rylan and an aggressive AJ to limit turnovers and bury threes. Flory needs to play big minutes and this means no foul trouble early. He is so gifted but this type of pressure may be good or bad. Kelvin baby is looking for a natty and would like a blowout in Allen.

Juan gained 10 lbs since last season.

@Crimsonorblue22

I think he looks a bit bigger and stronger.

Jan 24, 2025 10:19 PM #11

When I see him not shy away from contact or get thrown around on the defensive end then I’ll believe it. The media guide always makes things look nice heck I was 6-3 when in reality I’m 6-1 on a good day….

Jan 24, 2025 10:56 PM #12

In was in an interview, doesn't matter what you think.

Jan 24, 2025 11:10 PM #13

The media guide lists kuballin10 as standing 6'3" 🤔 Interesting

You’re right it doesn’t matter what I think but does matter how d2 plays and his play is still weak, frail and avoiding contact

@Jhawk69 NT at your service (Nick timberlake)!

Kidding I’m plenty past my prime and I meant even in high school stuff - info was always inflated

@kuballin10 guess who takes the most charges?
