Thanks for the kind words. Not 100% sure on Greene and the APR. I always thought he finished out because I never heard his name mentioned when we had those issues a few years ago.

To me, that is how you win championships, or have top 10 teams. You have several guys you bring in that are 3-4 year players, like CJ, Kris Jo, Brandon, Scoop, etc (the 50-100 ranked guys??), throw in one or two guys that bust their butts because they have to (Baye, Kristof, etc) and mix it with one or two elite level guys (Melo, Wes (elite college for sure) Dion, etc).
I think the foundation is built for that now, esp 14/15.

I disagree, Francis...I think he was a great kid
Seriously, he always had a smile on his face and to this day, still loves the Orange - despite some jerks being unpleasant to him.
He was forced to take on more than he was ready for his frosh year, people forget that. If he had the last 4-5 year's talent surrounding him (or stayed for soph) and was allowed to mature more organically, he would've been a huge favorite. However, people and the team in general relied too much on him, or I should say expected too much.
If he had stayed, the next year's team would've been top-notch. Imagine the improvement upon the below and interesting comparison to Gerry.
SeasonGP PPG FG%3FG% APGRPGBPG
2007-08 35 17.7 41.8 34.5 2.0 7.2 1.6
Also, for comparison's sake, Gerry:
2002-03 35 13.3 .401 .357 4.4 2.23 .1

Why, why on that fateful day....
A little story: Lived in California for a year. In the beginning, stayed at my aunt and uncle's house. Btw, both girl cousins can flat out ball, got the tall gene from my uncle, not aunt. It's not in my side of the family's blood. Uncle was a beach volleyball player, freakin awesome dude, love him.
Anyway, they closed down their block in Brentwood, did a Party of Five shoot. Literally across from their house, yay!
Bumped into Neve Campbell and she seemed rather rude, but maybe in a young teen sort of way, not so much a terribly snotty Hollywood actress way. I had a crush, but kept it together, didn't say hi, etc out of respect. After all, she was working, and I somewhat knew the biz' protocol.
Either way, I honestly don't remember seeing JLH, but not sure if she had those samolians rocking that large back then anyway.
Still, why didn't I venture on to look for the kid?
Why?

Donte freshman
AO sophmore (RS but very little in game experience)
Rick freshman
kOng JC junior
CatRescuer Freshman (didn't play any meaningfull minutes)
of the 7 that played 4 freshman, 2 sophmores and JC

You do realize that you would be the GOD of this board if you were even able to talk or flirt with her? Anything else would likely put half the board in the hospital.

tee its the curse of life man, you aren't allowed to know what you should do until your to old to do it.
edit: Oh and all the cool hot chicks that you could never get don't express any interest in you until you are happily married.

Exactly man.
Ah, if I could take back that day.
Pretty sure this is how it would have went down, if I thought it out.
Great success.
Btw, cusetown, this resolution's for you! Extra blurry, I love when they video record straight from their couch.

Seriously, I would have been an uber stud in college if I only knew what I know now.
Damn!

Now you guys are really going to hate me. I remember she was walking with another girl, brown hair, maybe similar height. I thought they were both really cute irl, but I can't positively say it was JLH. Was there another girl of similar height on that show?
Fudge. I might have to bring in the LA posse on this one to help me remember, but I'd be asking girls that were also pretty young to recollect which hotties were there that day. Btw, could have been Neve's assistant, friend, etc.
my life.

Best part is after she denies his request for marriage, he says "agreement not necessary" then out comes the sack.

Yeah, me too. Opportunities that stared me in the face, yet I was too chicken, foolish, etc.
You don't understand how slick you would be by now if you pulled it off (sorry to say it).
My buddy went through with it, his mom's colleague.
Kid runs a mortgage underwriting firm, last time I checked, with bonuses 400K plus, and worked on the national economic counsel with Obama!
I asked him, "when you're in the white house, do you see Obama?".
He says, "sure, almost every day".
Anyway, he was slick to being with, so not 100% sure on my theory.
Still, I take the wifey and the boy any day over the pay.
Word.
