You, uh, might want to edit this. Kind of ironic. ;)

You might want to check out the Rovell tweet somebody posted just a bit ago.

From what I read in the Evans and Person complaints it involves advisors paying the assistants to curry favor with current players, not recruits. Specifically with Evans, he was paid to arrange meetings with the advisors, to steer the player to use the advisors, and to not let other advisors...

How about paragraph 65(a)? In February 2017, Evans wanted money from the adviser in order to pay a high school recruit (actually his mother) who had previously given a verbal commitment. The good news is that there's absolutely nothing implying that Underwood knew of any of this. As someone...

For those who'd like to see Matic Vesel in action, it looks like youtube.com/FIBA is broadcasting all the U20 games live. Slovenia group games take place as follows: Sat., 7/15 9:45 a.m. EDT vs. Spain Sun., 7/16 9:45 a.m. EDT vs. Serbia Mon., 7/17 7:30 a.m. EDT vs. Italy

This. Bigs take a while to develop and are almost always a waste of space as freshmen. Even ranked ones. This is not a move for next year. It's a move for 2-3 years down the line. If we land a couple stud bigs in 2018 and 2019 that are the exception and can come in and be productive right away -...

I'm pretty taken aback by the lack of respect for Tejon being shown in some of these posts. I'd be shocked if he doesn't start and play 28+ mpg. Not surprised. Shocked.

It's nutty. Let's pass on a kid who averaged 12 mpg and 3.5 apg at a P5 school in his freshman year because of our small chance we have of beating Kentucky and Michigan State in a recruiting battle. And oh by the way - the kid who is the unproven one has rankings that are actually a bit lower...

Our zone defense is completely embarrassing. It results either in a layup or a wide open three. I hope we don't see it again unless it gets markedly better (and it won't).

Everybody always brings up the elite eight game vs. Arizona when discussing all-time hose jobs we've been associated with, and that was a bigger stage than the UW game, but I agree. I've never been as angry at officiating as I was during that UW game. It was absolutely ridiculous. And we were in...

Yeah I was thinking the same. Not only is he not top 100 now, he's not even anywhere near. The lowest ranked PG who got into the top 100 was ranked as the #22 PG. They've got Frazier as the #40 PG in this list. That's got to be closer to 200 than it is to 100. Really weird that this happened...

Speaking of salty . . .

I'd say the scenario of the current year looks pretty favorable for him to get time at the 2. Malcolm will, barring injury, play 32+ or even 34+ mpg at the 3 this year against good competition. Not many minutes to be had at the backup 3. Kipper may get time at the 4, but you'd hope that in their...

Nice.
