took a gander at the Cavs message board and they love CPJ. They think he was the steal of the draft and should have been a 1st round pick.

Today's Eagle article on CP. The Cavs like his stat stuffing abilities. I've always liked his game, but like FVV, I wasn't a believer that he was an NBA player. That's changing one day at a time.

“The biggest thing that stands out about him is the way he impacts the game in so many ways,” Gerrity told The Eagle. “He can distribute, he can score for himself, he rebounds, he blocks shots, he does a little bit of everything. He’s the quarterback on the floor for us and we want him to run the show and find that balance between being aggressive and getting his teammates involved. And then on defense, we want to see him making things happen, get in passing lanes, get deflections, get those blocked shots and just do the things that he does.” Porter’s ability to finish acrobatic shots in the paint has boosted his scoring in Vegas, but he’s not likely going to be tasked with scoring, at least immediately, at the NBA level. The plays that Gerrity, who is also Cleveland’s G League coach, notices the most are when Porter skies above a group of big men for a rebound, when he sparks a fast break with a look-ahead pass for an easy score or when his instincts take over and he blocks a shot from behind.

Someone ask Doc what he thought of the lettering on Ron’s white jersey.

Then prepare to listen to a five-minute rant.

That was embarrassing, but it kind of fit our blue collar attitude at the time I suppose. The only thing that would have made it better is if Ron would have worn a bandana while he was playing. Or maybe some mismatched shoes.

[Kel Varnsen]

I can't believe I never noticed that. It looks like Ron's jersey had been fixed for the season, but Fred and Malcolm still had the curved Wichita, which matched the format of the black jersey for everyone.

This is an area in which the WSU athletics department could definitely improve. When was the last time we saw a hype video for the basketball team (or something similar)? Leveraging social media seems like an easy, and cost-effective, way to boost fan engagement.

UAB has released some outstanding hype video for their men's basketball team:

That UAB "Home" video has a "feel" a lot like the videos Fidelity Bank produces. Nice find and share, and yes, I too would love to see videos like this for us.
