Regret. Regret is not a grudge. Stop reaching.

Hilarious...how is that a reach at all? Your words left a lot to the imagination, and it didn't take a reach, at all. Also, it was a fair question without any intended malice. Not sure why your answer couldn't have just been, "No".

My expressing relief that he isn’t giving his final season of eligibility to another school shouldn’t stir the imagination and warrant any more scrutiny in this thread than others’ opinions. I think he would be a valuable contributor elsewhere too and present a tough matchup for us potentially. If you expected a ”No” or “Yes” answer, was it that relevant to ask? And my response wasn’t intended to be hilarious, so we just don’t connect.

Then why not just say that? We don't connect because your subsequent intended goal was to be terse and combative rather than answer my innocuous question. Any level of "scrutiny" in my responsive question was self-generated in how you read into it, especially in light of the fact that I already once explained that it wasn't intended as such.

I apologize if you took my original response to be inflammatory. It really wasn't intended to be that. It simply was nothing more than a clarifying question. The way I understood your statement made it sound like you'd have potentially had hard feelings if Plav had taken his last year elsewhere when in reality, he had no option to return to Tennessee. That's why I asked. Your above response offered more clarity, and would have been sufficient enough to both answer my question and also stave off an unnecessary disagreeable interaction.

OK, take care and have a good one. I've tried to be as civil as possible, but you clearly have no interest in that exercise. Good luck with that. I guess you win the role of Richard, after all.

Why is that "sensitive content"?

Used potentially offensive binary language. Referred to himself as "a man."

Or maybe it's the picture of a white guy using code words like man, family, country, and nation.

We need to quit kidding ourselves--they've broke the code! They know we're all just middle class domestic terrorists, plotting a return to a neo-fascist, antebellum, pre-monogamy, nation state.

I'm still in awe of "If you expected a 'No' or 'Yes' answer, was it that relevant to ask?" That's some logic. It'll probably sound better in the song.

Uros received way too much negative fan comments for a limited roll player. He was the big body on our roster who allowed us a chance to match up if our opponents had a similar type post player. Maybe Awaka will continue to get stronger and fill that roll but he’s 4-5” shorter. I suspect there will be a few games this coming season we will be wishing there was someone his size on our team. Wish him the best and hope he makes a great life for himself!

I agree the negative fan comments about his talent, ability, and role were over the top and unwarranted, most times.

I also believe the negative fan comments about his inability to keep his emotions in check and how it continually hurt his team were very much warranted.

We've done a good job recruiting big men, we just can't seem to keep them on the roster.

Whether you loved the antics or dispised them, you can’t deny Uros played with TONS of emotion…and that’s what always made the college game superior. If not for anything else, his entertainment value will be missed. Good luck UP!

I think he tried hard to be a contributor in some way. With his limited BB skills maybe he tried the enforcer role as a way to contribute. You can debate whether that plan was a positive or negative effect on the game but that's just what I think he was doing.
