You were just using "coudaa's"...Telfair and Johnson?

If anything short of the final 4 is unsuccessful, you are unrealistic.

Okay recruiting expert, what EXACTLY do they do to close the deal?

Let's just give the 1998 title up since we didn't deserve it cuz Tubby coach players recruited by Rick.

So you think they haven't recieved scholarship offers? What should we have done to close the deal? Forged their signatures?

I don't ever remember a team winning a championship without being coached. Are you suggesting that Tubby had nothing to do with the 1998 title?

They both didn't want to play college ball at all, so they didn't want to play for Pitino, they wanted to play for money.

So I guess Duke and Florida have no shot either because they haven't recieved an LOI.

Improvement from the freshmen and, depending on whether guys like you put enough pressure on Barnhart, our in-coming class could jump to the top 20. Too bad for Pitino. I don't know how that's getting screwed, that's just about like someone saying UK got screwed when Wright and Hansbrough went to UNC. Give us them two and watch out. You've got to be kidding me. If's do not excuse an NIT appearance.

Pitino was in the NIT and the Big East is not the SEC. Michigan State does have high expectations but faith in the their program and coach. Kentucky is reloading. Like I said, we'd be taking a step back in the program for years if Tubby is relieved.

Morris hasn't panned out? Leading the SEC in double-doubles and carrying us on his back in the postseason?

For a 22-12 season and loss in the second round? Louisville should fire Pitino...Michigan State should fire Izzo...Duke should fire Coach K...Texas Tech should fire Knight... We fire Tubby and we're looking at a 12-22 season instead of vice versa, we'll miss out on Patterson and Lucas, Morris will leave, many will transfer. If anything Tubby should leave on his own, the way he is treated by sore losers and pessimists is horrendous.

Why?

I was for sure this thread was about if Chris Lofton could play in the NBA...Not who's better between JJ and Chris or Green or Chris...JJ's career is over and hes at the next level...Green and Chris will be there one day As for the guys who keep saying Chris cant do this and cant do that, thats fine...He keeps proving people wrong...If all you think is that Chris is a scorer, watch some UT games...he had 4 steals today...Game against Texas he had 30+ points and 11 rebounds...hes more than a scorer, hes a leader and defenses key on him every game...So again chris isnt JJ and hes not Green, hes Chris Lofton

I didnt say the guy would leave after this yr...I simply said he will "Test the Waters" just to see what he has to work on to play at the next level. I talk to the guy weekly and even though he hasnt said anything to me personally about going Pro after this season, i think he will at least go and get evaluated by a few teams. And the draft will be loaded next yr with Guards so if he wanted to come out this yr, i dont see why he wouldn't

If you are watching the game now you really think he cant play at the next level? Ur Crazy...not saying he will leave but he might test the waters this year just to see what he can work on and I see him doing just that after the season

He may "Test the Waters" It wont hurt him too

Guess we'll see after this season...he'll be a good 3rd scorer for the right team, next to a superstar

Hes playing overseas somewhere right now...

Chez was a nice player. I think he could have played at a bigger school than MSU to be honest but hes doing alright for himself right now...I know him personally so hes a great person as well

Listen guys UK is in the best situation they can be in with the bracket they are in. Yea Nova has Reynolds and Sumpter but who else do they have? It takes a team to win, not 2 players. But Reynolds is a nice player and can give UK 30 but i dont think Bradley nor Meeks nor Jasper will let that happen. and Nova has to deal with Crawford, Meeks and Morris and sometimes Bradley and Perry. So if UK isnt playing selfish like they usually do and play the way the Coach tells them to, they will be ok. If Morris is being lazy and Crawford gets in "Kobe Mode" and Bradley isnt pouting, UK will win. Its that simple

Can anyone tell me how Chris Mullins got in before Preston LeMaster from Bourbon Co, Kevin Reinhardt from Campbell Co, and Robert Myrick from Mason Co??? Just wondering what he did to get in so early than these other guys that graduated in the same class as he did. Not knocking the kid or anything because was a great player for Montgomery Co i know a lot of players who should have gotten in this yr

Oh yeah! I'm in!

So if you miss a shot, you can grab your own rebound in the backcourt if no one touches it? Interesting...
