Have read some ridiculous things on here and arguing if our starting center is in fact a starting center ranks very high.

That's literally arguing to argue. Between grown folks lmao.



Sidenote: a starting center doesn't have to be a reliable scoring threat. His ability to not be able to post up doesn't disqualify him as a starting center. He can rebound, block shots, defend paint, etc

So he doesnt have to score, he doesn't have to rebound, he's not even the in the top two on his own team, Grant is 1, admiral is 2. So your 5 is just blocks shots. Hmmm.

Also, you've fallen for the bruin misdirection, I never said he wasn't listed as the five. I said Grant takes on the five role on offense. Everything statistically backs that up. The reason is we dont have a true five on the roster, which is how this got started. I said we needed one, Bruin said we had one in Alexander. Alexander is not a five. He's not even close to a five. He checks little to no boxes on what a five should be. He's not a five and to argue otherwise is foolish. I've challenged bruin and anyone to go find me another SEC five that can't score in the low post and weighs in at 220#. Don't waste your time because they don't exist.

Just because he's not a good 5 doesn't means he's not a 5.

You're trying to argue a philosophical/semantics point and in modern basketball and how much overlap there is between positions now you are using your personal definition of what a 5 should be able to do.

Chris Lofton is definitely a 5.

Speaking of Chicken, has anybody tried the Chicken Saldad Chick? It's new. We just got one and I wondered if anybody had some experience with them. Wanted to know if it would be a waste of my time. Would love to find out it is awesome, though.

Also, I was thinking about this last night: Tennessee is Kentucky basketball's kryptonite. No matter just how bad the season is going or how good UK is, the Vols just have their number way more often than they should. Just my thought.

Had a business lunch once in Chattanooga. It was very good. Would go to one if local or in the area. Your wife or girlfriend would love you taking them there. Would not drive over 20 minutes just to go there however.

I believe Kyle has tried to put on weight but his genetics won't allow it. (I wish I had that problem). I love Kyle, he gives his all but he's limited. He's not good with his back to the basket, and he's not good at creating off the dribble. He scores basically two ways, he shoots jump shots and rebound baskets. If we had a more dominate player that could score with his back to the basket, it would take heat off Grant. Grant is really our only scoring option deep in the paint.

I have seen him get lazy and not hustle at times. That has frustrated me but like the kid. He needs to get thicker but if he can’t then he can’t.

New Director of Player Personell. Coming from Florida

I feel so bad for you if you think Drew Hughes is anything close to a Director of Player Personnel. He is a protoypical Director of Personnel Development. How could you possibly be this clueless about college football support staff?

You should hate yourself for your lack of support staff knowledge. Literally everybody knows that there's not a true director of player personnel with the way the modern support staffs are structured. I feel sorry for you and everyone who knows you.
