A Tale of Two Basketball programs

[BigPapaVol]

....don't expect to win the big games with his style of play?? Like beating 25% of the sweet sixteen this year without one of them being played at home?

sweet. we beat WKU, WVU and Xavier in December. Those were HUGE games. The Memphis game was a big W.

 

[hatvol96]

Our guys are OVER-ACHIEVERS......give CBP a couple more yrs and that WON'T be the case

Kentucky, Florida, and Michigan State? Please.

By calling the Memphis out of conference schedule weak, you show exactly how much you actually know about basketball.

...enough to make you look like a flaming IDIOT about the Memphis game(don't make me pull those threads).......and I'll take my chances defending a coach like CBP against a negative, fair-weathered, Memphis fan ANYDAY. Call me stupid, I'm 100% against YOU in contested picks, lawdog.

Yeah, take your regular season picks and drive them directly up your arse. All of you clueless, nothing happening Cal haters can suck it while Memphis heads to San Antonio and Pearl sits at Rooster's hoping to score with the drunkest sorostitute in the house.

Memphis had the #9 non-conference SOS

You already used that one.

I know, I like it.

 

[dickens821]

I know, I like it.

Ok. Just makin' sure.

Oh and congrats to my hometown team (who I really can't stand all that much) to making the Final Four.

All four 1 seeds in the FF. Who woulda thunk it?

With all due respect, how do Pearl's alleged dalliances with young women have anything to do with coaching Division I basketball?

You've brought that topic up repeatedly, not just in this thread. What are you trying to accomplish with it?

It is unprecedented.

 

[dickens821]

It is unprecedented.

I know. And no 10 seed has made the final 4 either. So either way history was going to be made. I was hoping to be able to proclaim Bill Self = No Final Fours for one more year though.

I think the point is that Pearl is no longer coaching, while Cal is...

 

[Fine Vol]

Go Memphis

I'm trying to spotlight Pearl's accomplishments. Since he doesn't have Elite Eights or Final Fours to stack up against all the coaches that people like Volfaker claim he's better than, I thought I'd bring up a standard where he's doing well by comparison. Just covering The Exalted One's back.

Bait taken Mr. Lawyer......I'm sure your retort will be well thought out, sharp, and SEEM like Bball genious, but you've just admitted that CBP inherited Buzz's team and after three seasons he has a better roster than Gillespie and the historic and vaunted wildcats, Izzo(a freakin jillion years at a HISTORIC Bball school....that as ESPN says "is a tournament genious"), and the guy that just won back-to-back NC's at the most fertile recruiting area in the country......now start with the "BD lost umpteen players early to the NBA" crap....would'nt that mean jockying for roster spots by the best athletes in the country....don't even go there. I may not be freinds with Huggins OR know as much as you, but STOP dissing what Pearl has done AND don't treat me like a dip-wad.

Might it be driven also by the folks here that cast aspersions on Billy G and his love of drink?

 

[dickens821]

I think next time Pearl heads to Memphis he should seduce Cal's 18 year old daughter. That will show Cal who's who!

You're very perceptive.

Don't act like one.

I don't want to call you dip-wad, but the I was baiting comment was just pathetic.

 

[dickens821]

You're very perceptive.

We can say one thing for Pearl though, he's never been pulled over or arrested for DUI or suspicion of DUI.

Florida isn't one of the 10 best recruiting areas in America for hoops. Gillispie in two months on the job added Patrick Patterson, who is better than anyone Pearl has signed at UT.

Ha....that'd be like one employee throwing "whore" accusations around the "ranch".

Tubby did most of that recruitment...
