  1. I was on the field for the game and there was not 17,000. The media made that number up; more like 13,000, if that. D-was awful and made the OFF look good. Off. line needs a lot of work, to many mistakes on both sides of the ball the one thing you do not want in a spring game.

  2. Earl Clark to turn pro: Tried to explain to him that he could potentially be a top ten pick and college All-American. If he goes to a team and gets playing time it could be a good situation. In the NBA you acquire your wealth in your second contract, you must be physically ready to play minutes and play well at the highest level. Once that happens, shoe money triples and endorsements become more lucrative. The danger is that the chances of getting a lucrative second contract diminishes when you are not ready because of the lack of practice. This has all been explained to Earl and he is willing to take the gamble. Everyone today is in a rush. Sometimes slowing down the process allows the athlete to reach their potential and mature emotionally and physically. I have no choice but to wish him well and hope for the best.

     

    From Coach P web site

  3. Coach flew out of NC commercial on Sunday his Assist, scheduled the flight he will be coming back for Mr. Wilcats funeral and going to the Final 4 from LEX on a private plane Once again his assist is a VERY good friend. Do not believe everything that you read.

  4. I'm being told he was in Miami meeting with officials from the Heat. Not positive about the topics being discussed, but just thought I'd pass it along...

     

    Coach goes to Miami after every basketball season as soon as the season is over this is no news and has done this since coming to Louisville.

  5. If I am not mistaken this was last years schedule of bowl games for the Ray Adams Charger Classic. I don't think that the KHSAA nor KDE would allow football games to be played during Thursday (a school day).

     

    So, If I am correct, then Woodford vs. Hardin is the first game of the 2008 football season? If this is wrong, then someone correct me.

     

    It has been a mess with the Charger Classic, with college starting a week early Papa Johns was not open for the Classic. Things were still being worked out for the games but last I heard it was not going to happen unless it was going to be during the week.

  6. word around here is that DC is already off campus and back home. I heard that he pleaded with Rick to let him come back next year (this was in NY), and then some more issues came up, AGAIN...and Rick said that's it.

     

     

    Not true he was on campus today, when I went to have lunch he was at the student center. He is not welcome back to the Bball team.

  7. Again, not in the same class. Come on.

    Yes, he was considered as he took a scholorship away!!!

  8. I would have to say this is the best seeding ever. Four 1 seeds in the final four. That is the point....
    ,

     

    Are you kidding me, Drake a 5 seed 26-4 against a very tough WKU 25-6Wisconson a 2 seed not a 1 due to Duke.

    Butler a 7 seed 29-3.

    UNC Playing at home!!! but ask Roy it does not matter 18,000 fans at the game last night maybe 2000 UofL fans.

     

    Arizona in the field with a 18-14 record 8-10 conf.

    ASU not in the field after they beat them twice. 21-13 9-9 conf

    Washington State a 4 seed

    Just to name a few

    UNC and KU had a cake walk until the last two games. What makes the whole thing fun as well is the upsets.

  9. Carolina, I feel the National Championship was won last night around 11:30 pm.

     

    Did you watch Mem. today? No that was not the NATIONAL Champ. just because Cards lost and they did not help themself with three turnovers late. NC wins this game but it will be close and Mem. will win it all.

  10. With the exception of what Davidson has accomplished and a few games during the first weekend, has this been the worst, most boring NCAA tournament ever?

     

    I know one thing, this weekend has been one of the worst weekends I can remember. I'm just praying that Davidson can give me one good game to watch this weekend. :madman:

     

     

    Agree, in sweet 16 and Elite 8 I have never seen blowouts this bad, not so sure NCAA committee did a good job of match ups this year, hope it is the last year fort these members of the committee.

  11. Wasn't Tubby right on his recruitment of Bradley and Crawford over Lofton, and just did a bad job of developing them? Can you imagine if BCG had those two guys for four years?

     

    I can tell you this Lofton is 10x better than Adam Williams who was at KY who transfered to Marshall

    Easy question even out of high school Lofton was better than this kid ever thought about being people tend to forget about this player and player is a very lose term for him.

    Who would you rather have Lofton or Williams.

  12. U.T. in basketball just like in football gets some extremely good athletes and the U.T. football and basketball coach are imo extremely overrated. The U.T. coaches can recruit and Pearl can generate excitement with a fan base but tonight as imo in most U.T. games (win or lose) the Vols were extremely outcoached.

    Pat Summit is by far the best coach on that campus in any sport.

     

    I agree but TV will not say anything bad about coachs and with the athletes they get I feel they get the ranking and on name alone. After seeing Bruce last week in Bama, I just do not think he is a very good coach. Butler coach out coached him last week but did not get some calls and did not have the athletes.

  13. The guy has really given a shot of life to a once lukewarm program. He recruits athletes who love to run and gun. He sets up a chaotic style of basketball that thrives on turnovers and fastbreak points. The guy has done well for himself it seems everywhere he goes.

     

    However, I still remain unimpressed by his ingame coaching abilities. Heck even his game plan coming into games seems to lack any change. He seems to want to come into every game throwing punches and expects this plan to work. Tonight for instance he ran up against a team that took the punches. Countered well. Survived the initial onslaught with a lead actually, and then seemed to adjust and exploit Tennessee's over pursuit and overzelousness of every possession.

     

    His game plan can beat teams that might be mediocre or aren't playing well. But if a team can find their rhythm, make adjustments to the run and gun style, and get UT out of their own rhythm, he seems unable to really find a way to adjust.

     

    Maybe im off base here. It wouldn't be the first time, this just is an idea I've begun to arrive at the past year.

     

    I like Bruce but I was in Bama last week for the Butler game and was not really impressed and I love the SEC. I feel you hit the nail on the head.

  14. I love how dominant the Big East is in everything.

     

    2006 NCAA Men's Basketball Champion - Florida

    2007 NCAA Men's Basketball Champion - Florida

    2007 BCS Champion - Florida

    2007 NCAA Women's Basketball Champion - Tennessee

    2008 BCS Champion - LSU

     

     

    I believe 2004 was the last time a Big East team won a title.

     

    I said the same thing to Big East folk last week and how Big East only lost one game in Mens first week of NCAA. Last time a checked the did not give the Trophy away after the first round!!!

  15. This sounds like a repeat of the Roderick Rhodes scenario at UK. The kid is not ready to leave a stable college setting.............can't see anything good coming from this for Caracter.

     

     

    That is Ricks game and he makes the rules....no matter if it hurts the kid.

  16. I was hard on BG all year, some of it deserved after those early season losses. But no one can question the heart and toughness this team has shown despite more than their fair share of setbacks. Before the season started, a first round exit would be a big time disappointment, no way you can say that now considering how everything played out.

     

    Going to be an interesting to see how things will play out next year with PP returning.

     

    Still like to see a zone from BG!!!! I ? him at times this year but during SEC he did a fine job...with three players then with 2. With only two players that could score on this floor and they won games that way give him credit.
