I really was just teasing u, Bru. But, Bru never sad that, u all. My bad

I am a big Lanier fan but I do think he needs to win a championship if Barnes coaches another 3-4 years to get the job. Last night was one shot

Maybe we split this convo out into its own thread. The Donde Plowman Like Women Thread

I feel like that thread title could be dangerous lol

 

[bleedingTNorange]

Yea all that lined up with exactly what I said. House was pushed to the back even behind hobby. I think we know why

Wtf are you talking about? He’s not here because he chose not to be after accepting the job, nothing to do with Plowman.

Or he realized he really wasn’t wanted by the administration and slow played while they offered the job to a host of others.

Lmao, so you wanna cite VQ then dismiss what they say happened because it doesn’t fit your theory? Lol

Look you haven’t stated one thing that VQ said that shows my “theory”
Is wrong

in fact VQ said Plowman was very involved and we offered 3 minority candidates in Brown, Washington and then Hobby which was after the SB before Houston. My theory is at that point plowman stood down and allowed Jh to circle back(as VQ reported) to House and by that point the damage had been done and house wasn’t interested any more.


Take the diversity issue out of this and the chancellor shouldn’t be involved at all in the hiring of an assistant coach UNLESS an character issue is involved. Those hires should have been up to the head coaches without the influence of a chancellor

Except for the fact VQ stated Hpuse accepted the job at this point and that a meeting with Andy Reid changed that...House turned down conversations until after the SB, nothing to do with Plowman.

I think because plowman wanted them
Over house and yea then andy Reid used that against us and he said no. Just Reading tea leaves

It's also Women's History Month, so maybe that explains why she is sending out all the women's sports tweets ? Could it be that simple, Bru ?

I've never seen a UK's players stock drop like Boston and Clark's have. Who had Isaiah Jackson as the best NBA prospect on UK's roster before the season?

They'll recoup some of it in private workouts I think but they definitely have a lot more questions to answer than they did before the season started.

Bruin has a point

Yeah I think they will still get drafted from workouts and potential. But that won't make up the millions of $$$ they lost by playing for Calipari.

Not before the season, but after 3 games, I said it. Thru 3 games, he had 22 pts, 30 rebs, and 12 blks. He was easily the most athletic and raw, offensively, player with the most upside, I thought. Living in Kentucky, I get the pleasure of talking basketball with a lot of their fans, some good, most bad and delusional. I told a handful of them the first weekend in December that Jackson was their best player. None of them believed me because they were in love with the idea of Boston, Clarke, and Sarr being that guy.

I thought Isaiah was the best defensive player in the league this season. I pray he leaves.

If you have the option of being a 1st rounder, I can’t imagine wanting to return to Lexington and that mess for another year.

What kind of competition did Boston play against in high school?

Isiah Jackson is clearly the most NBA ready on their roster.

Boston played for Sierra Canyon in California. Good local competition and they played a lot of national programs, as well. Bronny James is there, and the freshman guard at Stanford who is seen as a potential lottery pick, Ziaire Williams played there, Scottie Pippen’s younger son (Preston) plays there, Pip’s youngest son (Justin) is a freshman, Amari Bailey is a top 5 player in the 2022 class. Chance Westry is a top 50 kid in the 2022 class. Tons of talent, there, and they play great competition across their schedule.
