So Wisky's taking our leftovers now? That's a hoot.

That is hilarious. How desperate is Whiskey?

Considering they make, or are in contention for, the tournament with the same regularity as UC, I'd say, not very.

If you take the post-Huggins era, Wisky is a better program than UC...by a lot. 7-to-1 advantage in Sweet 16s is just the beginning.

Either makes my point.

Subflea is over gts' other shoulder. The other two can identify themselves if they want.

If I remember correctly Gruehls picked up the check when I wasn't paying attention (Q has a tendency to do that as well).

Subflea joined us. I'm there about 30 pounds ago. A few others who can claim themselves if they want.

So can you help us out Mark? You're the first on the left and GTS is the dude in the Georgia Tech polo. Who are the other five amigos?

I’m the sunburned one in red who just got off the field from coaching 3 games in a baseball tournament.

Damn, from the pic you appear to be in the 6'2" to 6'4" range. I don't know who the bloke is to your right but I'll follow behind you guys to the front of the concert stage LOL.

My recent combine data shows 6’2” (and shrinking), 223 lbs and a 40 time of 8.64...shuttle time was measured in geologic time...

two things:
#1. i was watching tape of a former student who played against Tavion. i SWEAR he scored four times in just the few plays i saw
#2. they never mentioned why he was asked to transfer. i can think of a specific 3rd and 2 play recently where we could've benefited from his skill set

I believe it was an SAP issue for Thomas.

OH, LOOK AT BIGMOUTH BILLY!!

Give a guy a roster spot and all the sudden, he's ALL WORLD!

The young guy next to Gruehls ( he's 40 now so it's all relative) is bourgeois_rage, Clint.

Is he still around here? I see him as an admin, but never see him post any more.

Once he started a family, seemed like his posting career was instantly over.

Too bad. Very enjoyable posts.

Yeah, busy guy these days with 2 kids and all the associated coaching duties, still living in Pleasant Ridge.
I know he still checks in to see what's up occasionally. He's my kid by the way. He introduced me to Gruehls and MLB years ago at a couple of BBall games and Ragpicker in Memphis at the Liberty Bowl. I only started following UC after they started cashing my tuition checks.

Thank you Cat Litter for the verified ID update. We're down to one unidentified male in the picture of the seven pub crawlers. So from bottom left to right...

Were we in need of a fumble?

Thomas could be a beast. Needs to secure his head and the football. Reminds me of Mister Simpson.

For clarification, SAP means Satisfactory Academic Progress (ie...does this guy go to class and do the bare minimum to not singlehandedly tank our APR score?)

Are we done recruiting?

Nope.

We have two scholarships left for basketball in 2021-22. Not sure how many the football team is expected to take in 2022, but we're up to 11 commits. Last couple of classes have been big, so I'm assuming this one will be relatively small -- 20 or less? Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.
