Class of 2026 SG Qayden Samuels (MD) to Alabama

I can still see him in NO.Second half. SU up 8, and rolling. Fast break. Greg takes a 3 in transition. If it goes, we romp. He misses. IU scores. The rest is history. To this day, I still think it’s a good shot.
I believe he shot an air ball, and Alford got a run out the other way for a layup.

It was a good look, but it seemed like Monroe got excited and rushed it.
 
Fun fact: Greg Monroe shot 44% from 3 as a senior...which was the 1st year of the 3point shot.
also ave. 4 assists as a shooting guard.

*This somehow led me to watch the end of the Indiana game 1987...we shouldve had 4 seconds after Keith smarts shot instead of 1!
I dont remember that, I may have just blocked it out of memory.
But 4 seconds is an eternity compared to 1 second at the end of a game!
The rules were different back then. The clock did not stop after a made field goal at the end of the game.
 
My lasting memory- and I’ve never rewatched it (too painful) is that Cuse had a bit more time but Derrick froze getting the ball inbounds and maybe two seconds went by before he inbounded. By the time he threw it in it was too late… maybe 1 second. Cuse was soooo close to three titles (they’d have won if Arinze didn’t go down). Sigh.
If Sims doesn’t get hurt against Kentucky, (I think he was out for about 5 minutes and their lead doubled, or close to it) we had a good chance to win that game as well.
 
Maryland's new recruiting approach? "These other schools have only given you one offer. We're giving you TWO offers."



Kidding. I think it just means that Maryland first offered when Kevin Willard was coach, and they're showing a continued interest now that Buzz Williams is the coach.

Re-offered: 1st offer was decent $$…. 2nd offer, dare you to refuse $$$$$$…
 
He has been playing on Team Reggie in the NBPA Top 100 Camp this week…

Amazing what cuse coulda had if they hired Oats when he was ready to leave UB. It just never ceases to amaze me to think what could have been
Oats left UB in March 2019. Buddy had just finished his freshman season at that time. As we know, JB coached 4 more years after Oats left UB. I don't think there was ever an opportunity for Oats to be hired at SU short of forcing JB out with his son on the team.

There was never a realistic opportunity for "what could have been" with Oats.

Someone (who’s much smarter than me) should do a what-if thread about if we got Oats, I think that’d be really cool

No Oats, no wheat, no barley, no corn. Was never going to happen. Beat a dead horse somewhere else. Out
