Antiquawn Beckham - Committed to Mississippi State

[Downtown Shocker Brown]

Oh, SNAP!! My bad. I will have to look and relocate the article that stated he was up to 6'5. The way he is growing he could reach 6'6 by fall.

and i think you meant to say "doesN'T solve".

[Hotel Paper]

Hope he doesn't have that giant disease that's been going around

[Downtown Shocker Brown]

I don't think that is a problem. He is almost done growing according to the article and has grown 6" in a very short time. He is adjusting to the new height well.

Also, whom ever goes to the game tonight, will you double check on the proper spelling of his name?

Many sites have articles with it spelled "Murry" and "Murray", including both Scout and Rivals.

[Hotel Paper]

Coach says Murry

[Downtown Shocker Brown]

Well, i guess the good thing is that we know how "Twany" spells his last name.

[Hotel Paper]

too bad he's not related to David Beckham in any way

Why, Hotel? Do you think WSU needs someone to compete with P'Allen Stinnett in basketball kicking?

Looks like WSU is pretty high on his list

Beckham is the perfect player for Coach Marshall's system. He is quick, long, athletic, and an unselfish maker. If he comes, by his JR year we will be running 3 guard system with Beckham, Murray, and Kyles, along with Stutz inside and another big. We will be tough to match up with, our D will be outstanding, and a deep run in March would be very likely.

What color is the sky...GOLD of course, but maybe only because of my glasses. And while i may seem gold, it is better than seeing nothing at all....

Be careful... KCShox is preparing a "doom and gloom" masterpiece rebuttal.
:D

Well, the thing about KCShox and a couple others on here is they realize that there are 2 possible outcomes of most "homer" viewpoints:

1. The positive happens
2. The negative happens

They get a kick out of saying "WILL NOT", and the only real rebuttal is "WILL TO".

I, fortunately, am old enough not to engage in that argument. I do, however, have a 4 year old niece that loves that "DID NOT" vs. "DID TO" argument.

Ahhh another fan of KC Shox. I love it. Anyway, I commend you on having high intestinal fortitude to not be drawn into my "adolescent" arguements. Although I believe you are way off base in characterizing my comments/viewpoints as only being suited for a four year-old, I do realize that this thinking is inherent to those who do wear the yellow/gold glasses i.e. Homers and must be taken with a grain of salt and be easily dismissed.

I've come to realize that my 'realistic' viewpoint does rub the Homers the wrong way, however, I offer no apologies. I only suggest that you either grow thicker skin, ignore my comments, take off those blinding glasses or take the time, (and I know this will be the most difficult of all), to think.

Peace Hommie!

WSU was in to see Beckham last week, along with Bradley, East Carolina, Georgia Tech and Creighton. Bradley and East Carolina offered. Georgia Tech said their head coach would be in to see him. If Georgia Tech offers, right now he would probably go with them but is planning a few visits before deciding.

Is he going to be visiting WSU?

[tropicalshox]

No other clues in the articles on which schools he will visit after his HS season.

[Snapshot9]

Total interest level in Beckham is per Scout.hoops:

Ball State, Bradley, Creighton, East Carolina, Georgia Tech, Northern Iowa, Ohio, Wichita State

[Downtown Shocker Brown]

I think he will visit. He was planning on visiting, but said that we wanted him to commit on his visit and he wasn't ready to do so. We may lighten that stance to get him here to see the place.

Once we get him here, all we need is a game of pop-a-shot!
