Quote from: bballjws2004 on Today at 02:14:03 pmNeither of them are hitting it all right now. But I agree Jones has more upside for sure. Just don't know if it'll happen here for him.

I am shocked that we don't try to bunt Wilmsmeyer more. I figured we would see it last night when we had a guy on first.

Starship Troopers and Fight Club are movies people still don't understand

Man, when the local video store was going out of business, what, like 15 years ago?, I went down and bought a copy of Starship Troopers. I got home and realized I'd bought Starship Troopers II. Aawww! I haven't watched it yet.

Quote from: REBELHOG4 on Today at 02:26:09 pmSomeone help me out here, why couldn't Gabe pitch again tomorrow? Is it a Freshman thing?

I thought he threw 40ish pitches. And they were high stress pitches.

That would be a lot for someone not used to pitching twice a weekend. Mac would definitely be available, but don't want to risk injury or fatigue this time of year.

This OKC-Dallas series is fire!

what was her average when she got benched? Has it gone up or down since?

Quote from: Salty spork on Yesterday at 02:11:48 pmI wonder what the number is? There has to be a point of diminishing returns. 50 coaches seems excessive.

Also, if all these coaches are getting paid...there must be plenty of money for players.

"Coach, what am I doing wrong in the gym?"

"Don't look at me, I'm the right tackle S&C coach.  You're a left tackle, your coach is over there."

Now let's go get it done tonight!

Buber?

SEC+. You can get it from your ESPN app or from the ESPN site. You don't need to pay for ESPN+

We seem to be a worrying bunch.  As a long time hog fan, I get it.  I catch myself wanting to say "stop it", but then I catch myself worrying as well.  My worries have nothing to do with recruiting or even having competitive, winning teams.  I don't expect another national championship either, but would love to think we have a legitimate chance to get one though.

My worries at the moment center on having a hall of fame coach that probably has little desire to cater to the good old family network that makes up the big donors and ongoing contributors of the program.  And that their desire to feel special, influential, and in the loop make them dislike Calipari and make this job less fun for him as a result.  He seems to get his fun from the kids, and I think he will be successful.  I just hope the key large, historical donors (not talking about Tyson but the small group of others) do not let their egos and desire to be "involved" and in the know get in the way.
