the Orange kool-aid is making you loopy....

Duke offers top 10 academics, 4 NCAA basketball titles, the winningest coach in mens college basketball, and TONS of media exposure.

Vandy offers top 20 academics, great location, and a good basketball program sporting 3 straight NCAA tourneys and 2 recent Sweet 16's under their current coach.

but yeah...lets pass on all that to play for Gonzo at UT all because his sister goes there. :thumbsup:

I just don't see it...

And who the hell would want to play for josh, dude can't out coach his own shadow. Has recruited at a top 5 level since he's been there, yet hasn't done $h!t with that talent, hasnt beaten a top 25 team in his career, that's real enticing.

You can ramble all you want, fact is academics don't mean that much to kids who's primary concern is playing basketball. You do realize we have jarnell right? Turned to Mempiss and Kentucky...why would he do that?

You're letting the trolling go to your head, and are saying ish that doesn't even make sense. The fact you're trying to talk up Vandys basketball program is the best part, look at the 2 programs the last 10 years, you're a joke man.

You act as if Tennessee has a bad basketball program, you do realize until last year they had the longest streak of NCAA appearances in the SEC right? They rank top 5 nationally in attendance just about every year now. Their facilities are top notch and are only getting better with the new athletic facility. On top of that, you act as if Nichols sister is the only draw here...like I said, good basketball program(absolutely trumps vandy), his dad went to UT, and Nichols has grown up attending UT games, you should seriously think before posting.

I guess you missed the part where I said he wouldn't go to UT or Memphis...

kids like Nichols play for schools like Duke and Vandy...not schools like UT or Memphis.

right now I'm much more excited about maybe getting Dez Wells from Xavier...he visits Saturday, decides Monday...should be able to play immediately.

Why would he go to Memphis who has a coach who can't win a NCAA game when he's gonna visit Louisville who has Pitino?

Louisville has pulled it's offer...no room.

Evan Daniels @EvanDanielsFOX
According to a source, Louisville is no longer recruiting Dez Wells, due to their scholarship situation.

that said he's reported to be on the UK campus right now...It's hard to beat Cal in a recruiting battle...we got lucky with the Bartons.

oh, BTW how many NCAA's has Gonzo been to? yeah, that sucks.

How many mcd aa's was coach handed? Joshy can't win with a roster that only UK can rival in talent.

this season should say a lot about Josh...he has his best line up, and they're all guys he's recruited.

Joe Jackson (McDonald's All American)
Chris Crawford (four-star)
Adonis Thomas (McDonald's All American)
Shaq Goodwin (McDonald's All American)
Tarik Black (four-star)

with our schedule, I see no reason we shouldn't end up with 29-30 wins.

They're in the Big East now. That lineup won't overmatch everyone like it did in C-USA.

The Vols would have absolutely no chance this season if Pastner took over with our current roster.

you also don't have to win 25 games and your conference just to make the NCAAs in the BE....

in 2011 UConn finished 9th in the BE...went 9-9...won the NCAA championship.

**edit: just a FYI we still have one more CUSA season left**

Uconn also beat MULTIPLE top 25 teams that year, as well as some that were top 5. Josh hasn't proven he can beat a top 25 team, so I wouldnt feel too confident just yet.

My dead honest opinion, josh is going to be overmatched against these coaches, he's lucky Pitt and Cuse are gonna be gone though. I expect them to finish middle of the pack ish in the big east, and be a borderline NCAA team.

If CJP doesn't get it done this year, he never will. And it's seriously not that hard to spell Cuonzo Martin. Maybe your Univeristy of Memphis education causes you to confuse your G's and C's but the rest of the free world is well capable of doing it correctly. It might come off cute to you but you look like a moron to everyone else.

I see one big reason why you won't win around 30 games. Your coach just isn't that good at coaching up talent.

Isn't Martin neck deep in recruiting battles with Coach K right now?

See post below yours...

If you read the whole convo that your delusional Memphis fan friend started, yod realize my post was full of sarcasm.

Not all recruits go to the best basketball school, or best academic school, that really shouldn't even be discussed its so elementary.

Nobody wants to read 5 pages of you argue with someone. I still can't believe you let yourself get this wound up over message board postings.

For starters it wasn't just me, infact most of the posts were other people, once again read before opening your mouth.

Second, its not an argument, it's a memphis fan being a belligerent moron on this board, nothing new.
