  1. Congratulations to my favorite high school basketball coach, Steve Adams! I couldn’t be happier for him and I look forward to following the Colts and their success!!!
  2. Some celebrating, some mad, some sad, some just straight up flustered. Very entertaining. The happy folks are the most fun. 😂😂😂😂
  3. Just checking in. Work has been entertaining today to say the least.
  4. Agreed! And Caitlin Clark is a large part of that. She’s so much fun to watch. As a Kobe guy I absolutely hate that we won’t get to see his daughter play as she would have undoubtedly pushed the women’s game even higher.
  5. One thing I noticed is her players absolutely love her. I don’t feel like Kim Mulkey gets the same love from her players.
  6. What do her players get away with?
  7. Disagree. I want to watch the WNBA more than ever before to see who is right? The old heads or Caitlin. It’s going to be great entertainment. I don’t understand why folks are so bent out of shape about what the old heads are saying? Why do we hold women to different standards than men? Men talk trash all the time and we tune in to see who backs it up. This is no different. I’ve never been this excited to watch the WNBA before. They are selling their league IMO.
  8. UConn has quietly become a blue blood before our eyes.
  9. Nope. Not for me. This kind of success early on only ensures that mediocrity will be tolerated down the road. My beef is always been that he isn’t the answer long term. He’s exceeding my expectations this year for sure with what he has shown us during this regular season. For me this raises the roof on the expectations for next year’s team. A bigger, badder version of this year’s team. I’m grateful for their run so far. I hope they win it all. If Scheyer has one title in fifteen years should I call that a success?
  10. Are there going to be any re-districting and school movements going on anytime soon?
  11. A little bit but I don’t think that is the issue at Duke. They were having these issues before Coach K gave the keys to Scheyer.
  12. I said I am sick of the One and Done model at Duke. I don’t want a None and None model to replace it.
  13. Coach K copied off of Calipari and had the exact same results. One title with the One and Done model. Jon Scheyer follows the same model. I could go on and on about Coach K’s final years and his legacy. I don’t want that model.
  14. I’ve seen enough to know that any success he has next year with that team will be a fluke. He hasn’t shown me that he can properly develop talent.
  15. This is my official #FireScheyer thread. I know he isn’t the answer long term. He’s proven that. Unfortunately he is arguably the best recruiter in college basketball so his job is most likely pretty safe for awhile. I’m just starting this thread so we can track how long it takes for Duke to come to their senses. I feel like how UK fans used to be when they would say….”if he can’t win it all next year with the kids he has coming in…..” I’ve seen this movie before. It just had a different cast. There’s no way that THIS particular team shouldn’t be much better than what they are. That’s on the coach. We’ll see what happens. Never be the guy who follows the legend. Be the guy who replaces that guy. I look forward to seeing who that guy will be. I’m wide open today. Taking all applications. Brotherhood or not.
  16. Agreed. I haven’t watched them much and I have still recognized this. They do a lot of dumb stuff.
