so who wins tonight? spoelstra actually made some great adjustments for game 2 (i think he is to blame for many of the heat's recent losses). will brooks return the favor for game three is the question.

beau's mom is alright... and maybe the 69 belt means his goal was to shoot a 69. the kid came close.

no way lawrence would go to rutgers...would he? that would definitely be a shocker.

right, sdsu will be good, but still a some what mid-major. let's go play in bloomington or pauley or the phog or head out to arizona. something.

you are the type who goes to blogs and types: "uk better have velcro on their banner, because it will be vacated soon!" those are the users and posts that make SU look bad.

being the mod doesn't mean you know more than this 'rook' i think there's a new sheriff in town...

you're trolling on uk, making SU fans look bad.

no NCAA rules were broken. rose had someone else take his SATs. camby was paid by an AAU team.

whenever i'm on a blog and someone responds to a post about uk or cal with "oh, well they pay players," 99 times out of 100 it's some troll with no credibility. not once has someone offered factual data to back it up.

unless there is proof, you can't assume.

i know kansas got into trouble a few years back. but there was evidence, and they were caught, and punished.

so who pays players? just kentucky?

sorry, i'm new here. it's hard to read sarcasm on this board. many people are in attack mode.

didn't gross mention something about the big east will help SU come up with another OOC game for next year? temple, sdsu, arkansas i hope gross goes out and finds a heavyweight to play. anyone with info?

anyone know where we stand with mccullough? i heard he's playing well. it might be hard to land vonleh but mccullough would fill that PF spot nicely.

you're exactly right. i hate it when people bring up the "pay the players" response too. it's a debate that contains no evidence. it's an amateur response.

good, so we agree that saying players get paid equals: "i'm mad those kids picked kentucky."

it also comes down to which teams have cap room. i know the blazers do, and i heard nash is interested in playing there (close to his home in canada, and he likes aldridge's game). he'd start on the knicks, probably start over chalmers on the heat too.

true, but donte left SU angry. the uk kids just won the championship.

so you're saying boosters pay the players? does every player get paid or only certain ones? wouldn't that cause some tension or jealously? this exchange of money isn't checked by the ncaa?

so how does the money exchange work? i'm curious to know. i heard a rumor that SU backed off tony davis once the rumor of his pops asking for 250K. i do know that SU was the 9th most profitable team last year, compared to uk, who was 5th. but there wasn't a huge difference in revenue. also...

right, can you predict the future? how can you say one-n-dones don't gain a lifelong friend and mentor in cal? if boeheim and melo have a bond, why wouldn't cal? you don't think he talks to rose and wall and cousins and knight and bledsoe? i'm not sure what you're trying to say. is it that...

that's a bit optimistic concerning nash is likely gone. blazers, spurs, knicks, heat, nash wants to win a title.

i called him tony when talking with uk fans. it bothered them and just kinda stuck. so boeheim and carmelo don't stay in touch? boeheim hasn't had a huge impact on carmelo's life?

just think: carmelo & boeheim.

the one-n-dones are there from summer to summer, so it's a full year. and you don't think cal has had a huge impact on tony davis, mkg, t jones, teague, lamb, or miller? this past year has been the most important, influential year of their lives.

nike elite skills at SEEDS academy? I'm not sure if chino is involved in that, but i think baye was. there's the possible connection.

i'm strictly talking hoops. not once did i mention any of you. nor will i ever spit any attacks. get it simple. talk hoops.

SU fans attacking their own...sad.

no clue what you mean by berniefever, but the guy sounds like he likes to debate, which is cool.

with the course playing as difficult as it is, there's really only 8 or so guys with a chance to win. the 3 leaders, mcdowell, and a few guys at +3 (schwatzel, choi, kuchar, dufner)

but beejay's production was much higher, even though his stats weren't so good. i just don't think chino would play at SU. that's all. no biggie. no need to try to analyze my interior. ps - i understand the game of basketball. i enjoy discussing and debating. i honor everyone's opinion, but...

i didn't say they were. i said they were sending out a thousand texts. never said to any random player. but as the article shows, now that they have unlimited texts, they will obviously send out more, as i originally stated. if you post wise responses, expect answers that prove my point...

i'm not a big fan of cal either, but the guy has zero recruiting violations, high APR scores, and for the most part produces high quality kids beyond just basketball talent.

my 2013 class: ENNIS - SU needs a future true PG and ennis is the perfect fit. JEFFERSON - the kid does everything. freakish athleticism. would fit the wing of the 2-3 well. WAINRIGHT - arguably the most college-ready physique in the country. good rebounder for his position. would work...

skip bayless has tried to find negatives in lebron's game during the playoffs, but skip is strrrrrrruggling.

donte green obviously wasn't ready to go pro after one year. harris and flynn were local kids. yes, we went after davis and noel and lost them because of the point i'm making.

chino's stats in the final nike eybl session: game 1: 27 mins, 2 points, 3 boards, 4 fouls, 4 blocks ---> team L game 2: 24 mins, 14 points, 8 boards, 2 assists, 2 blocks ---> team W game 3: 28 mins, 2 points, 5 boards, 3 fouls, 0 turnovers ---> team L game4: 26 mins, 5 points, 6 boards, 3...

and you don't think the top programs are sending out text messages... http://www.nationoforange.com/content/interest-kahari-beaufort-picking-up-493/

you're thinking of kobe or a-rod.

right, and our 2010 and 2011 classes were solid. it'll be interesting to see if we land any of the top-tier guys we're targeting in 2014.

its time to move beyond the decision, which he made at a boys & girls club, in which he donated tons of money to, including any money made off 'the decision'. lebron has done nothing but good for the league. yes, a stand-up guy. deserves more credit for his off the court deeds and his on the...

and even if they changed the NBA age limit, top players would still go to uk and unc, they'd just stay two years instead of one (or maybe kids would head over seas until eligible for the draft).

melo was expected to be a star, and no one was shocked when he left. dook has two one-n-dones in the past two years. deng, maggette, ewing were only at dook one year. and plenty of guys left after soph season. pepsi max's uncle drew is a dook one-n-done.

true, but why not go after maybe one or two kids a year who has one-n-done potential? dook has started to do so. unc and ucla have too. look what happened when boeheim did sign a one-n-done back in 2002. and no one in orange nation will ever complain or say anything negative about one-n-done...

were discussing recruiting.

SU was rated by espn as the 7th best place to coach, right behind the 6 blue bloods. SU has all the resources and facilities to compete with the blue bloods. the only thing SU is lacking is ncaa tournament success and top-tier recruiting, and those go hand in hand. that's all i'm saying. in...

just explaining to the guy that SU hasn't reached blue blood status.

while i love what they have put together in okc, i want to see lebron get his championship. a stand-up guy, with once in a generation talent, lebron doesn't deserve all the hate he receives. plus, we won't have to listen to all the media yap for another year about lebron. now, only if we can...

tiger could easily be sitting at 3 or 4 under par right now. i like his chances this weekend. he doesn't tee off until 6:05 PM. we on the east coast get to watch prime time golf.
