Is the job Hughes had the only one to fill now

Yep. And it sounds like he may take his time with that one...

Needed Javontez in the middle to break this one up:

I think this dude's opinion probably carries a little more weight than my own.

Now you look at a stat sheet after a game and the first thing you look at is the threes. If you made threes and the other team did't, you win. You don't even look at the rebounds or the turnovers or how much transition D was involved. You don't even care. That's how much an impact the three-point shot has and it's evidence by how everybody plays...There's no basketball anymore, there's no beauty in it. It's pretty boring. But it is what it is and you need to work with it.

Better to hit 3s than 2s, given the dropoff in % isn't enough to offset the point differential. 3s also create better offensive rebound opportunities and spreads the defense. I just don't see any advantage to shooting long 2s.

Ok? So as I said, if everyone can shoot now like hank says...

Pretty amazing that our 5 highest rated WRs next year will be 4 true freshmen and 1 true sophomore:

Ramel Keyton — .9503
Malachi Wideman — .9492
Jalin Hyatt — .9218
Jimmy Calloway — .9197
Dee Beckwith — .8884

Wasn't Gibbs a 5 star?

Per Austin Price Pruitt hired Dobbs4Heisman, Sabanocchio, and Orange Defense to replace Drew Hughes. TN put up their profile pick

They could, but is there a per-shot advantage in doing so? I have no idea and am not privy to basketball analytics, but have usually understood driving (layup/dunk/getting fouled/kick out) and 3 pointers (1.5x value that of a jump shot ofc) to be the most valuable plays. This range-merging would also not seem to stress defenses as much as a strategy of "polarizing ranges".

Range merging. Polarizing ranges. You sound like a poker player.

Everything, you moran.

Larry David is a funny guy, but he is a smarmy little turd.

Pretty much described the recruiting forum

As a transfer he was rated an 87.

I think out of high school he was just outside of 5* territory. Going by composite here.

This post aged well

2016? You’ve got too much time on your hands.

 

[bignewt]

Wait! Can I please finish the first one first?

We doing a half page a week?

 

[PrattvilleVol]

Fyp

Um yeah.

 

[Jack Burton]

Let’s hope Bowden busts the slump and goes for 25 tonight.

 

[SSVol]

Are you using an old iPhone he sent you?

It was the one @Freak sent him for his 25k notification bonus. I'm given to understand he picks them up cheap by the pallet load on a special program offered by the NSA.

Pruitt gon’ make ‘at boy a DB.

If what we heard about his practices on the scout team were accurate (I know I know "practice reports"), I'd be disappointed if he never gets a shot at WR. Given our experience at DB and lack of it at WR, it's hard to imagine he doesn't at least begin there.

But cjp certainly loves him some versatile DBs, so wouldn't be surprised either.

Hey. I'm a slow reader.
