Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I get what you're saying but Creighton had the game won without the antics at the end. The Creighton HC chewed his players @$$ for doing that. Common courtesy is to just dribble and let the clock run out, showboating is frowned upon.

I confused, I thought this was Chreighton retaliation for something Connecticut had done in an earlier game..

If so...then pile it on...but if not then this was really gauche.

Great little point guard 1975-79 & native of Springfield TN.

I will say throwing the ball To Bernard King, Ernie Grunfeld and Dale Ellis probably helped his assist numbers. Still a great player

I guess it was from when Hurley was making the he has two Championship rings towards the Creighton crowd earlier in the year after the game. Creighton player took it upon himself to rub the victory in Connecticut's face by showboating at the end when the game was in full control...

Vols by 6-8 points today, I believe Auburn will not care they got top seed locked down in NCAA Tournament..Florida takes down the Bammers...

Bad, bad night for their town. My town got hit in 2021, but last night we were spared. Storm was headed straight for us and veer north just as it neared us. Feeling blessed and relieved this morning, but hurting for those not so fortunate. We have a good storm shelter and we use it.

We built our new (21) house with a safe room in our bedroom walk in closet. Best money we spend!

Tough night tonight here in Arkansas. Multiple tornadoes touching down all around us. We are prepped to head to storm shelter, if they come our way. Lots of damage all around - with it being this late not sure of possible loss of life. Cave City, AR has been hit hard.

Terrible.

Our shelter is about 10 yards from back door, very convenient. If I was building new I would go with safe room too

We built it on its own foundation, so it’s completely anchored separately from the house. The manufacturer said “your house can be blown away and you will safe in here” then he added “I pray y’all never have to test my statement“

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Not liking how the line continues to grow in Auburn’s favor yet the most money is coming in on us. I don’t think that’s good news for the outcome today.

Who cares what Vegas thinks?

"Two wrongs, doesn't make a right" be the bigger person.

In a lot of cases...sure...in sports...screw that

Payback is a ***** and Hurley has truckloads of it coming for his arrogant jackass nonsense.

 

[gordonr24]

I am completely indifferent on today’s game. It’s really a house money situation, win or lose. A loss means more rest. A win means UT is in position to grab a 1 seed.

 

[JCVol00]

Pat Adams and Don Dailey today, we are so so cooked

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

I absolutely love this defense. This is my favorite part of basketball. This team is so talented.


Lack of any attempt at defense is why the NBA is so boring.

I will remember that phrase in the fall...

At our age, it’s a noble goal to remember ANYTHING.

Hurley and his team had it coming then...he is a dickhead and has a lot more than this coming.

I will concede that maybe the guys on the floor are not responsible for the actions of their coach, and I can't recall any talk of their players being &33holes..so I will give you that point...but Hurley is UConn mens basketball and has made sure that is known. He and Geno seem like 2 peas in a pod...and I despise them both.

It is what it is...and I do not begrudge Chreighton the payback.

I agree..the same way I feel.

*Normally I would agree but Dan Hurley deserves getting his nose rubbed in it. He's been a extra douchy all season.

This prolly wins an hall of shame award for comparing great things to small. But waiting on tip off. So,

Story Behind the Song: 'Vehicle' by The Ides of March

This story has a happy ending — and not just because it set Jim Peterik on the hit-making path he'd continue with Survivor.

If that is the case, why play the game? Makes no sense. UT would get two high end Q1 wins, if they hypothetically win the SECT.

To me, the team that advances the furthest between Alabama, Florida, and Tennessee should get the 1 seed.

It is. And it's that sports media is lying by omission by refusing to acknowledge that is a response to Hurley. I think Hurley should have to follow the Creighton kid's lead and apologize for being an assho to Creighton fans.
