RE: New MBB Walkon
The only problem here is there is no scenario I can think of where he Butta and Jelly would be on the court at the same time.

I mean, I guess I could see AK doing it for the meme for a minute or so if a game is out of hand.


For the record though, dont let the fact that he looks like he should be bagging your groceries at Publix fool you. The dude can play.

I am going to go ahead and say that, unlike all the other walk-ons for the past 20 years (with the exception of the baseball player), this kid will end up making some significant contributions to our program--on the court, in games--if he sticks around all four or five years.

True but he had also played a year at a JC in Utah. Might be wrong on the state, but I think I'm right..

No personal bias there?

Cameron Moore was a walk-on.

RE: New MBB Walkon
Okay, maybe I should have said the last ten years. Those are two very good exceptions. Honestly, I was thinking about all of the end-of-the-bench walk-ons that are more like mascots, and get in when we have a 30-point lead and everyone pulls for them to score. We've had some pretty bad ones that didn't belong on a D-I basketball court. Obviously I didn't think of Cam and Squeaky being walk-ons.

Anyone know what happened to Gambrill? I assumed he was on the roster, but discovered tonight that he is not.

Nothing on his Twitter about leaving. Maybe he's just going to work on school and conditioning for a year since we have such a loaded roster?

What a stupid and dangerous take from Blazin.
