This probably is the wrong thread for this discussion, but how can they hear unless someone tells them? I loved this post I-L-L guy. Thank you. Somebody needed to say it out loud. I'm glad to see there's an adult in the room willing to discuss real world issues. Your opening words say it all...

Given more than two or three minute stretches in each half to prove his worth, we might just have to hope that a Jake Davis can/will be the player to fill the roster in that position. As long as he isn't also forced to defend the 6-9, 6-10 or 7 footer on the defensive end like he was forced...

I'm just hoping Calipari isn't recruiting Orlando.

How'd our last MVC guy work out? No, but seriously... this guy looks pretty good to me. The numbers check out.

After watching the Florida game, we need guys who can penatrate in traffic, against contact, get fouled and get to the line and make free throws, not jack up contested threes.

We were 3-7 against teams in the Sweet Sixteen. I don't know what grade that should give us. Consider our loses: We lost to Alabama, Tennessee, Michigan State (2). Duke, Maryland, Kentucky. Lost to Alabama, we were overmatched. Lost to Tennessee by 2 on a last second layup, in a game we...

Who has a scouting report on what we should expect from this 24-25 Butler team? Are we thinking total domination. I mean realistically?

Does anyone remember the names of those two players who bolted to WV for more playing time, along with Coach Frazier? For some reason, I can't. Oh, that's right; the ten new guys... I remember them just fine.

Yes, maybe so, but it was a thing to behold.

School? Grad student? What's that got to do with college basketball? (For those living in Loma Linda - JK)

Wife was a grad from there. They've been my second team for many years. So I've followed them somewhat, closely. Monsanto had a serious injury, I think on one of the last few games of '23, and had off-season surgery, then rehabbed up into late part of last season. When he did get in, it was...
