    Its a good landing if you can walk away, its a great landing if the plane can be reused the next day.

      This young recruit has a wicked crossover that even Shoelace would approve of and is quick on quick and has the all-seeing eyes which results in nice assists. Get me both him and Serrel Smith and we will be good to go and don't ask me to resolve ships, just get-em both here please.
      Shocker basketball will forever be my favorite team in all of sports.

          I think we got in too late on this one... Naftali looks like our guy...

            We got in on him the day, if not the hour, he became available. Short of inventing a time machine, there's not much more we could do.

            We've been in contact with Alvarez much longer.

          He just reopened on Monday. We offered either Monday or Tuesday. Only home visit was Georgetown (that was extremely hurried)so unless he has mad a decision in record time, I don’t get your pessimism.

            Pessimistic? I think Alvarez would be a good pick up. No?

            “Too late” to be in on him so “this is our man” has the sound of settling. I think that we probably could have more than one visit from our point guard eligibles. I would be surprised if the point guards pushed the time table too much. Signing day is the first or second week of April. Ragland finished in the NJCAA Tournament before we were able to hit him hard. Neftali has already visited. If our coaches were sold, he’d already be a Shocker. We should find out more about visits shortly n

            Yeah, but we signed Lomax in the stead. He ain't around no more.

            Alvarez has some pretty decent teams after him.

          It’d be too good to be true if we landed this kid! Plus this is how rivalries are born, man! Taking recruits away from conference mates! When’s the last time we would have lost a recruit to a team in our conference or we would have wanted a recruit that spurned a fellow team in our conference? Even the bad stuff in this league has been better...
          If you're not going to go all the way, why go?

              This could be taken several different ways and you are vague. Hawkins thought he was too good for us. Are you saying JA thinks he’s too good for us and he lacks character?

                I don’t think that’s the case. We pulled Hawkins offer when he couldn’t get into college.

              Now that Hurley has been hired to UCONN, think one of his first priorities is to re-recruit this guy?

                Maybe but he has to catch up now. I would think he will talk to him. He has a lot to do, hiring coaches and all. Just as likely to recruit players he knows from RI. Probably some who thought RI was too small time for them but like Hurley. Maybe some coaches who point players his way too.

                  Fortunately I recently distributed a small number of Doc's Decoding Tables (DDTs) for members of my inner circle.

                  Remember, only members of Doc's Top Secret Inner Circle are entitled to all the honors and benefits incurring thereto.


                  So now, all my members, set your Secret decoding tables to B-2.


                  Doc's message will be coming forthwith.

                    *googling "decoding tables B-2"*

                    This is like looking for the RiverFest medallion.

                    We can all but guarantee a starting position from day one. Even if LS returns he might start.

                      First of all, you've got to learn to take the good wIth the bad. No one person is going to be the sole provider of useful informAtion. Lately, a good percentage of posters are strung a Fair shade too tightly. One should not let so much as an hoUr pass without stopping to enjoy the moment, as it weRe, because you never know when good informAtion is going to fAll in your lap, so you have to pay Close attentioN and realize sometimes the information providEd is going to be Wickedly good, and other times it might be catastrophic or not as it purPorts to be and lastly the next few weeks should be tellinG, in my humble opinion.
