Sunrise is a different local recruiting landscape. It's not as though their players are true hometown grown. They have no allegiance to Wichita. It is just a bump in the road on their journey. Most are from half a world away, or more. I could care less about seeing a Sunrise product on the Shocker roster as long as 3G and company continue the trend of recruiting. -
Just out of curiosity, how is it possible to be more than half a world away when the world is a globe?Originally posted by SHOXMVC View Post"Cotton scared me - I left him alone." - B4MSU (Bear Nation poster) in reference to heckling playersComment

Technically, the planet is eliptical since there is a slight bulge at the equator. However, your hypothesis is pretty sound. But let's assume we are on the equator where the planet has the greatest circumference. If the subject is exactly one-half way around the world then your hypothesis holds - he can be no more than half a world away. However, if the subject is, for example 500 miles beyond the halfway point then it depends on which way he travels. If he goes the short distance he is obviously less than half a world away. However, if the subject chooses to travel the opposite direction he is, in fact, more than half a world away. So as you can see it is all a matter of which way you are facing, unless, of course, you are two-faced.Originally posted by The Mad Hatter View Post

Of course if you go west to east across the International Date Line you can go back in time. Not that this relates to distance on the big blue marble...Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind. ~Dr. SeussComment

I suppose Superman would qualify as someone who went to high school in Kansas but came from further than half a world away."Cotton scared me - I left him alone." - B4MSU (Bear Nation poster) in reference to heckling playersComment
