100% agree, and let me put a real world anecdote on it that is probably rare due to the noise in Koch and sold-out arenas elsewhere. I went to Hawaii last December, and since there was nobody in the arena for the 2 games that weren't against Hawaii I was able to sit close enough to the court to hear everything.Originally posted by Kung Wu View Post
It was not only unreal at how much our guys talked, but how little LMU and GW did. When I learned to play the game in the 80s and 90s, you couldn't play defense without it.
I think we'll be fine, although I have to admit that with the most physical 1-2-3 in D1 in FVV-Baker-Wessel I'd like to muscle up a little more. But as GM said, if you're going to go through a rule change you'd prefer to do it with two All-Americans.Comment

But if Travis Ford would have upheld his end of the deal, he would have rolled into training camp in his 2013 Camaro this year.Originally posted by DUShock View Post
Honestly, the kid sounds schitzophrenic, and it would seem that Ford told him that taking his anti-psychotics was required if he wanted to play basketball.Livin the dreamComment

Probably so. It also sounds a lot like he wasn't as good as Forde hoped, so he was set up to fail spectacularly enough to be dismissed.Originally posted by wufan View PostComment

If a kid commits to a coach but breaks that commitment, and the coach gets fired, can the coach sue the recruit?
Looks like someone is looking for a payday and a scapegoat as to why all the crap about how great he was fed by AAU shoe guys didn't come true.Comment

OSU scrimmage...
I heard from someone who talked to an OSU coach who told him both Landry and Taylor were very impressive.Originally posted by tropicalshox View Post
I also noticed in a WSU article in the last day or two where Taylor's Hargrave coach (a guy who has coached multiple NBA players) said he could become the best defensive player in the country some day. Not bad for a guy who has always been looked at as a prolific scorer. Another article this week quoted Marshall as saying something to the effect that Landry and Taylor were performing their way into the picture.
Don't let Taylor's lack of ranking mislead you. He's the real deal. His playing time might be limited this year, but only because he's playing behind arguably the best PG in the country. Baker may play the point a bit when Fred is out, but Taylor will get minutes there as well. I could be wrong, but I doubt you'll see Frankamp getting PG minutes, his minutes will likely be at the 2. I've seen them both live, and Taylor's a better PG option.Comment
