Maybe it's me, but isn't Louisville's guy named Montrezl... with an L...

[WaHoos4Me]

How do the announcers come up with Montrez instead of MontrezL??? I've not figured this one out...

 

[sabach]

Silent L.

 

[SUintheVille]

He's often called Trez for short. Despite looking a little rugged, he's actually a pretty nice kid from what I hear here.

 

[tee1222]

Silent L.

I think the L is just a hard Z.

 

[WaHoos4Me]

Thanks... I didn't know, thought I'd ask... unique for sure, at least to me...

 

[tptcuse]

I think the L is just a hard Z.

He used to have a Silent G at the end, as well, but changed it.

 

[tee1222]

Thanks... I didn't know, thought I'd ask... unique for sure, at least to me...

I hope you know I wasn't serious about the hard Z. I'm never serious. It's part of my charm. And haven't we done this before?

 

[Orangezoo]

He is part of the team that has terry cooney.

I knew you weren't serious... just giving thanks for the responses... still unsure as to how his name is pronounced how it is... lol...

"Harrell's dad gave him the extra "L" at the end of his first name just to make him different." from this article:

wow, now there is something I DIDN'T know... thanks... still unsure how it doesn't equate to a different pronunciation, but that's not my concern... just didn't know the story behind the story...

 

[HoustonCuse]

Umm, get with the program. It's Terryl Cooney.

 

[Orangezoo]

Umm, get with the program. It's Terryl Cooney.

Looking forward to hearing about the dominant Rakeem Roberson next year!

That's Robertson.

I'm sure when he was younger everyone messed it up, but now that he's as big as he is, people figure out quickly how HE wants it pronounced.

I KNOW!

 

[EastCoast2]

Montrez Harrell is good friends with Dejuan Coleman, Terry Cooney, Rakim Christmas, Tyler Robinson, BJ Jackson, and Robert Pattinson.

 

[reedny]

good player who plays with passion. got dominated by Rak in the second half last night. And the whole gaping-maw thing after a play is getting tired.

Don't you guys have a player named Guh-bin-gee or is that dook?:noidea:

By "you guys" do you mean Virginia? And if so, what sort of reverse psychology is going on where you go on a Syracuse message board to ask other UVa fans about your own roster??
