    I can't take all this drama. I just hope Kopp returns because I really enjoy his card tricks. Honestly, and I want to be serious, I really hate to see that Rob will most probably be moving on. I will always be a huge Rob fan. Any school that picks him up will get a damn good ball player.

    Agree. Wish he didn’t have that concussion his freshman year. That set him back more than a season.

    Oh he just changed everything, man. Our spacing was so good. I yearn for it. 

    I dont think its out of the question that XJ+JHS > YF+JH (YF as a FR). 

    In terms of an overall backcourt, agree. For all his good qualities, Hulls was limited on athleticism and size. He made the absolute most of what he had, but he had a ceiling. Was a damn machine behind the arc though. 
     

    X as a senior might come close to Yogi as a senior, just comparing one season. If JHS lives up to his potential…yeah, that could get scary.

    We get very few easy points because of inabilities at the wing and lack of a back up PG. 

    I see it, how you see it. 

    Houston shoots 1% better from 3 then we do. But, they shoot, on average 6 more a game.

    Our coaching staff knows all of this. We had to play this season with the hand we are dealt, obviously Woodson isn't fine with the roster make up... w/4 already gone. 

    12-20ft shots that are open are useless when you should be getting open 3s. 

    What I’d give to find a kid that had Yogi’s ability to bring the ball up at full speed, stop on half a dime and drain a pull-up 3.
     

    Watching him do that was poetry in motion. Opposing players knew how quick he was, and he turned it around on them. Get them going in one direction and be able to stop quicker than them…you just created your own open 3.

    Ayden’s procedure went well no problems. We will get test back in about a week or so. They asked if we wanted to watch the procedure in the room and my wife being the smarter of us said no. I wish I would have followed her. I didn't pass out or anything but rest assured I won't say yes again!!

     

    Thank you all for you thoughts and prayers.

    It’s quite a procedure, isn’t it? My wife does marrow biopsies and spinal fluid pulls fairly regularly, although not pediatric. I asked her if she ever gets nervous shoving a giant needle into someone’s bone or spine. “Not after you’ve done a few hundred.” I’m sure he was in great hands.

  14. The Grilling & Smoking Thread

    How old are the Genesis II? We bought our last Weber Genesis gas grill about 7 years back...was that the newer model? If so, we like it quite a bit. I use it more than the Weber Kettle due to convenience, although I prefer using charcoal if I have the time (or the smoker).

    Oh, problem solved. Weber released a new line of actual Genesis grills that are more in line with the past quality. I’ll be placing an order this week. Just need to see how much “allowance” I can talk the wife into letting me spend…lol.

    Has he brought in players like that at Oklahoma or Houston?  As I remember when he was first hired he brought in Lance Stemler and Mike White, both good guys.

    My theory on the next season is that he knew had 2 of top 10 players in college basketball for 1 season only, DJ and EJ, and he wanted to go for it all and that meant surrounding them with all the talent he could find, character issues included.  Point is that I don't think that would've continued. 

    And that crew of miscreants and malcontents were a contributing factor to Tyler Zeller going to UNC.
