It'll come out, don't worry. Nothing is ever as black and white as it seems when you don't know the whole story. The good thing is, you can just create new posts and pretend you knew all along when that happens.

I'm at a total loss with this. I couldn't see the game live, so I DVR'd it and started watching 90 minutes after it ended. 10-4 lead, guys looked good, Fall was in foul trouble. We have something going here. Then, the walls caved in. At 22-10, I checked the final score and deleted what I was watching. Ridiculously disappointing.

Um, methinks you have your irritation directed at the wrong poster, since I haven't done that. Slow your roll.

Tubby is the greatest coach in the history of college sports.

That was the editorial "you," not you personally.

Why, because they know what it means to represent Memphis. They have heart, pride, skills and fight.

These players do not. That is the issue. I am done.

Crazy talk...

You either don't understand or are not involved in the basketball scene in memphis but there is not some amazing underground wealth of talent tearing up the community centers/churches around this city.

I used to play in many of these high level games and then played against high level D1 ballers and it aint even close how much better the D1 ballers are then the other guys.

No offense but you're a ******* moron. I grew up playing ball with some of the most competitive players in this city. I played on the street courts at Davis Park and in other parts of Memphis that are less than desirable. My point of putting players on the team that represent the city and actually give a damn about PRIDE and RESPECT is more than valid. To say that Memphis has no major underlying wealth of basketball talent is one of the more stupid things I have ever heard.

If you provide them with a platform to play and get a coach who wants them and can develop the talent and nurture them academically and as young men, then will come in droves.

Nice. I'm just sayin the talent is there. That's all. Obviously they get involved in rather negative extracurricular activities that derail their potential. But, stop those activities and get them into academics and you get some hardcore ballers.

Whoopty do...Again tbere is not some underground talent pool.

The best games have been played in churches school gyms and rec centers for years. Played against many tigers and other D1 players and yes some local guys can impress in an unorganized run and gun game but that doesnt equate to them having anywhere near the talent of good college players.

And why isnt Keith a ******* moron....lol
