Does Mr. Baker go NBA after his Soph. Season?

STFU AND GTFO PONDSCUM.

Some people take message boards way too seriously. Yikes.

Mental insecurity is a sad thing. I'm a lifelong Shocker fan. I wear black and yellow almost every day of the week. But apparently if I don't think that a handful of good games to start this season are surefire evidence that Baker is a lottery pick who will have to seriously consider jumping to the NBA and becoming the next Lebron James, that makes me a troll and a fan of some other school.

Why is a refusal to simply ignore all reality and act like everybody associated with our beloved program walks on water have to be so poorly received? I thought we were better than that and capable of actually discussing basketball like knowledgeable adults. Starting to see why fans of other programs accuse us being the worst fanbase in the world to deal with -- even as a fan I get attacked for not just living in a complete delusion. Whatever.

I agree with you for the most part on Baker. Apparently having a different opinion on a message board is grounds to be burnt at the stake.

Thanks. Glad that at least some people on here don't freak out about a differing opinion. I thought that's what message boards were for -- good conversation and discussion of opinions.

If only you knew the half of it.

You've posted more on phognet than on Shockernet.

Coincidence?

[ShockerFever]

If a mod wants to confirm an IP address in the St. Petersburg, Florida area, it will confirm my suspicions even more.

Dad is a KU grad, grew up cheering for the Hawks. Still do, but went to school at WSU so I root for them mainly and have season tickets (which is in your opinion, grounds for execution I'm guessing). You should apply this much energy to, you know, real life.

Wow. Now anyone who doesn't immediately think I'm a troll must themselves be a troll.

How do you possibly keep track of who posts how many times on other teams' message boards? You've got a serious problem.

And yeah, again, nowhere near Florida and still not sure why being anywhere except Wichita means I'm a troll.

How do you know or not know what I do in "real life"?

So I was right? Clearly, I have no idea what I'm talking about..

Nope he's not a troll. He's just a noob that doesn't know what's going on. You, on the other hand, are the worst kind of troll possible - a troll pretending to be a WSU fan and doesn't have the b***s to share your opinion with the true colors you wear.

Dude has some issues.

[ShockerFever]

Dude has some issues.

This might be the one thread where all of the hidden "Shocker fans" come out.

I think the only one that's left is RomeoCronnel'sBelly.

Seriously, stop. Everyone. Just stop.

Take it to PM. Stop clogging up threads with this crap.

This is the last warning on taking threads off topic about possible trolls.

You guys are lucky that Ron Baker seems like a smart kid. He would go down as literally the stupidest basketball player in the history of all basketball players if he were to declare for the draft after this season. He's a four year player and even after that he'll be lucky to crack the first round. What happened to Cleanthony Early being a player of the year, all american, and first round pick? Seems like you idiots forgot about him extremely fast. Have fun losing more games than you expect to in the MVC and not having any of this tournament success you're predicting. Seacrest out.
