The basketball forum might be dumber than the football forum.

Now that we've locked down Barnes, he's absolutely worthless as a coach and even Cuonzo is better, apparently.

Those few are upset we didn't get Pearl. I'm wondering why he hasn't gotten any lucrative offers? I'm thinking it has to do with NCAA.

Guys and Gals, I need your thoughts and prayers again. As if life hasn't delivered enough tragedy to me in the past couple of months (the house fire, losing my cat, and my mom being sick (but thankfully slowly recovering), I'm typing this from UT hospital and staring down the possibility that the person who I've shared nearly my entire adult life with may have cancer. He's my partner, my best friend and soulmate (I know most of you didn't know I was female while a few of you jackholes are thinking "no wonder she likes the LVs" lol) and I honestly don't know what I'll do if it comes back cancer.

I feel like life is pushing me to absolute limit right now. Thoughts, prayers, stupid jokes, or any other silly diversion is welcome right now.

Praying for you, your partner and the doctors.

Prayers your way. If it is cancer, my prayer is they've caught it early and it's treatable. Many cancers are very survivable.

Sending you love and prayers.

We are dealing with something similar as one of our best friends was diagnosed with Stage 4 Metastatic Breast Cancer at the age of 25 and another with Lukemia. The challenges around even how to talk about things has been an eye opener.

What I have learned is that they have come a LONG way in cancer treatment. There is so much more hope for remission now than even just 5 years ago. I also have learned from my friends that they need me to be strong and keep my baggage off of them and for me to treat them like I normally would so they can have a semblance of normal in their life.

What you'll do is the best you can. Cancer isn't the "end of it" my wife's uncle has had many years with us (and still going strong thank the Lord) since his first diagnosis of prostate cancer. I'm sure your partner is a fighter and you'll be right there with him. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family!

Who is D4H?

Just my opinion on the kid and from what I have seen in several practices.

The kid has good moxie, good pocket awareness. He’s just gotta put it all together when it’s go time.

If you truly don’t know the D4H reference, click @Dobbs 4 Heisman and read the posts as far as it takes.

Edit: Scratch that. He’s a former poster...kinda unique. 🤔

Being part of the team . Support is a big deal. I was sneaking texts to my wife's friends when she was feeling down. She got so excited that all the sudden folks were thinking about and praying for her.

I'm hearing defense is good enough to back Ansleys statement. Care to comment?
Click to expand...

Defense looked good at times, others not so much.

LBs def have speed this year and they looked better in coverages as well.
Bituli looks the part. DL was getting decent push but they need more bodies.

Coaches are VERY vocal. They will chew that ass OUT! Reminds me of brooks, cause he would chew and chew til there was nothing left of your behind.

DBs looked the best out of all the groups. They made only a few mistakes, even seen them being vocal with one another on coverages.

That’s about all I got. I was only there for about an hour or so.

Was a self-taught talent expert. Could look at a player’s eyes and predict HOF inductions.

But thats a special talent Butchna. I’m not here to bash on anyone, I take it all in Brother. At the end of the day we are all just fans.

Who all is going to O/W game? It’s supposed to be ugly weather correct?

So here's the roster as it sets going into next season for Basketball I've only removed seniors & walk-ons at this point. Question is if we lose both Bone & Grant how many spots are open for recruits and where does the staff go to fill the 13 scholarships?

(10 on scholarship currently, 8 potentially without Bone/Grant)
0 Jordan Bone
1 Lamonte Turner
2 Grant Williams
10 John Fulkerson
13 Jalen Johnson
15 Derrick Walker
23 Jordan Bowden
32 D.J. Burns
33 Zach Kent
35 Yves Pons

Incoming: (3 more scholarships)
Josiah-Jordan James
Drew Pember
Davonte Gaines

So if we lose Grant & Bone that opens up 2 more scholarships...I know the 2019 Class still has prospects still not signed, is that the direct we'd go or possible grad transfers?
