When it happens in half the games we play and all the losses it's not a coincidence. By definition.

I understand what you said. I'm saying just because he only averages 16 ppg doesn't mean that a 34 point game from the guy is unexpected because he is a great player. You made it seem fluky that he could go for 34. It's not he is that good of a player.

You didn't understand. It's that Kentucky frequently lets players go off for career highs against them.

I don't think that's a fluke though, that dude can flat out ball.

The first line, business as usual, that means I am saying it's exactly the opposite of a fluke. The 2nd part that the averages 16 points, that's how good he is on an average day vs everyone else. Flat out ball or not 16 is 16. Then Kentucky gives him 34. A trend for Cals defense Louisville game, UCLA game etc...your quote looks like you didn't even read what was said.

Business as usual. Carolinas leading scorer averages 16 and gets 34 tonight.

Congrats. He has been around some good coaches there in Louisville and some good teams.

I didn't care for how it started out as a recycled campaign speech. You won, move forward.

I do too. So you think coaches sit down with a book of all 1 million players and evaluate them to find who they want?

Here's how it goes padawan. People don't recruit every player in the nation. They have areas they focus on. They develop relationships with certain coaches. They visit schools and ask about your kids and opponents kids. They hold camps to evaluate. They watch film to evaluate.

Not Necessarily. They will then look at their stats and see which kids made it over him. They still evaluate mainly from watching video but the awards get the kids name in front of the coaches. There is over 1 million high school football players in the country. It is not easy for coaches to find every single one that is talented enough to play in college. Any award list or ranking that can narrow their search is where they will start

The good coaches that I know, and I know a lot of them, do not let random people and media narrow or broaden their search and evaluation of players. Period. Mr.Football will be listed in the bio in the fall game program and nothing more.

That would make one heck of an all-star team! Congrats on the players on the list!

I agree. Thanks to the people who worked on it for your effort.

Some of the things that I hear people say influence college coaches make me chuckle.

 

If you're good enough to play in college the coaches will find you.

Some of the things people say influence coaches and some of the things people say win games. I don't know whether to chuckle or cry.

Can anyone confirm these offers?

 

I certainly don't want to "bash" any of our young student-athletes but I was told by someone very reliable that Franklin does not have any offers.

 

Anyone?

It looks like on the rivals site that he has recently gotten offers from some MAC schools and Tulane

Cals best defensive teams have always had a rim protector. AD, Towns, etc. I love Bam but he is not really that good of a rim protector yet, and that is part of the problem we have defensively right now.

 

Also I think Bam still has a lot of room to grow in the rebounding department. It's not like he is bad but I feel he could be dominant. He doesn't seem to have the instincts or know how to read a shot on where to position himself as good as people like Julius Randle and Towns was. He keeps getting better, and once he improves in those areas then watch out.

This has been my criticism for years. I realize i'm picking on the gold standard, but it is true. Cal has always stated "I can't hide you here at Kentucky". He also means he is stubborn and won't hide you here at Kentucky. He isn't going to mess around with silly college concepts like having a good change up zone or having trap help for weak defenders or special fronting and ball denial to great opponents, and he hates the do anything but switch all ball screens. Its stubborn and allows him to get out coached occasionally on that end of the floor. Usually when we lose in the tournament this is why.

yes

It’s a step up...to have head coaching experience on the collegiate level is invaluable. He would have the opportunity later to move up with that type of experience if that is what he wants to do.

He already left a college HC job to take LaSalle in the first place.

If America was boiled down to 100 people all living together in a town 10 of us still don't have health insurance. Even after Obama. Basically there are 2 doctors in our town. I don't know if those 2 doctors want to work on those 10 people for free, if they do that's up to them, but history shows they do not want to. Most conservatives and I don't want to pay the doctors to work on them either and we shouldn't have to.

Going ahead and listing a bunch of other stuff you don't like about the program that don't have anything to do with twitter=axe to grind.

Is the super making a bad choice here, probably. Is this kid making a bad choice, most def. Should someone be stepping up to educate him, most def.

Superintendent interceded and said something to the degree of, "There is to be no monitoring of student athletes twitter." in a meeting. As far as i'm concerned, end of story. The title of the thread answered. Not special treatment.

When the super tells the principal that school staff can't look at and punish students social media then by definition its not special treatment of basketball its a blanket of all students. Does it seem like a good outcome? NO. Does Corleone have some axe to grind? Magic 8 ball says, YES

For unusual I love peanut butter and apple butter sandwiches.

So Mr. Booker we have this video from last year. Were you lying then or are you lying now?

Only 13 programs recruit well enough to win the 2016 title, and Clemson was one of them. Called the blue chip ratio.
