Its coo.I see it!!
Always good to see incorrect grammar (their vs. his/her) on an official high school document, especially one celebrating scholastic achievement. And I was worried the quality of education in this country was slipping.For those concerned about Dior's ability to qualify academically...

So pardon my stupidity on this, but what changed with Dior? Wasn't he the one who was commenting on Andre or Symir's IG telling them not to come to Cuse? It sounded like there was some heat there or did it have more to do with him not having an offer at that time?
Not to start a fight about grammar but I don’t think that’s wrong English regardless of changing societal standards hahaAlways good to see incorrect grammar (their vs. his/her) on an official high school document, especially one celebrating scholastic achievement.

Preferred, actually.It's 2020. "Their" is the now accepted inclusive possessive pronoun.
cif southern section playoffs. friday night they face the winner of tomorrow's beverly hills/camarillo game.So what's the latest on Dior? any updates for his summer slate for competitive basketball? I'm in Cali, wouldn't mind showing up in the Cuse gear and showing some fan support.
So that's interesting. I was always taught 'their' was for plural possessive situations only, not when referring to a single person. Had to look it up and was blown away to find that's not a hard and fast rule anymore...mainly because people have been doing it incorrectly for so many years now that using it for singular possessive just became de facto correct english, lol. And I just found out the other day, apparently after the rest of the world already knew, that two spaces after a period are now considered wrong. My whole world is crashing down around me. Is nothing sacred!??Not to start a fight about grammar but I don’t think that’s wrong English regardless of changing societal standards haha

Now "they" and "their" are preferred for singular because you don't have to assume the person's sexual identity.So that's interesting.

Oh, at least Dior committed so there's that.
Yes. This is the internet I don’t care if people spell correctly or use proper grammar.This thread is getting boring with all the English lessons.
Your rite. Lets get back to talkin some Dior. They is the best recruit since Melo!Yes. This is the internet I don’t care if people spell correctly or use proper grammar.
Fax!!!Your rite. Lets get back to talkin some Dior. They is the best recruit since Melo!
Its not preferred, its PC.Now "they" and "their" are preferred for singular because you don't have to assume the person's s e xual identity.
