Re: Other scores

Hurley has apparently made a public statement that he will not take the KY job; his wife prefers to live in Connecticut. lord, he is tiresome!

The article stated that KY is looking to Billy Donovan, with the Bulls, who was in Lexington with Pitino in the mid-'90's.

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

he is apparently the best player on the best team, ALBA Berlin, in the U-19 league. ALBA Berlin appears to be a traditional power in the German Bundesliga, the highest level of pro ball in Germany.

Sign him up

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

I just got my first view of Riccardo Ghedini this morning on you tube video. His style is eerily reminiscent of a current neighbor who played for Akron in the early 80's, Joe Jakubick. Joe led the nation in scoring one year averaging 30 ppg. I don't have a good memory of Brian Adrian's style of pla...

Re: Newest Kool Aid recruiting thread

two paws raised here but am struggling on this board, again, with the semiotics regarding information not yet available for release. I suppose I will just wait for a press statement.

Bravo!

It is cosmically fitting that the Lefthander and Scott go in together. I remember the description of the call when Lefty was told by Scott that he would not be coming to Davidson but was going to UNC; then there is the iconic jump shot; and the next year I saw Scott bring UNC from 19 down to beat Ma...

If we had a guard like Jason Richards, we would have won by 15 tonight. The refs were willing to call fouls on the Billikens, we just needed a strong dribbler to penetrate their defense. We need that type of player next year, too. David Czerapowicz? I agree with the wizard; D Cz has the goods.
