Sounds like the guy from KY that I despise.

Who are you talking about?

That's not the hit that I'm referencing. The kicker (three weeks ago) and the packer receiver last week.

Dirty, cheap plays.

LBlack14

The guy who's had 2 programs stripped of final 4 appearances.

Can't argue that at all.

Gotta be John Calipari

LBlack14

I wish they'd have let John Chaney kick his ass in that press conference when he was at UMASS and Chaney was at Temple!! Remember that??

ode

LBlack14 yes, remember watching it on sportscenter....UMass and temple, what conferences were they in then and now.....I believe it was conf USA back then, now 😕

I'm sure there have been more than one coach that has wanted to do that. Not a fan....can't wait til he retires.

It was the A10/Atlantic 10 which Xavier moved to after they left the MCC.

He coaches my team and I can't wait until he's outta there.

We had a shot at Billy Donovan, Donovan would've taken the job. He would've been a great fit at UK and would've run the program the right way.

One-and-done isn't just mutually exclusive to Calipari and UK, but he basically perfected the concept. And Division 1 college hoops hasn't benefitted from it whatsoever.

But that's another story....

sdandrea1 I am not an advocate of purposely going after a player with intent of injury. That's just bad sportsmanship.

What if that's the only way to do the job right to stop the advancing ?
Going after an advanced football player half heartily will not ensure to get the job done.

If you watch the replay on that incident, with the speed they're going at each other there is very little room for mercy and very little time to take another option if there is one.

Wilson got waxed pretty good several times , do we throw the other player out of the game or wish them break their knees ? Com'on.

You Sir, are full of it since you started the name calling !
Do what you want and good luck with your life... don't get shot on the roadway cause you're leading to that way, with your attitude and throwing your frustration around.

Other than Sherman, who did I call a name? LOL... You crack me up! Now if you want me to call you a name so you can feel better - just ask. I doubt that I will, but it's always worth a shot to ask. LOL

Hey, bro - relax. We're just talking shit here. I don't like Sherman, I think he's a dirty player and no - I wouldn't lose sleep if he lost his kneecaps.

People are obviously entitled to disagree... but I think Sherman is the classic example WHY the NFL has a concussion protocol, and he not only doesn't have a problem with that - he wears it like a badge of honor.

He seeks out those season-ending hits, the targeting, the sensationalism. That's who Richard Sherman is. And the more I see of him - the more I wish someone would ring his fucking bell and send him to nighty night.

LBlack14 aha, that's it.... how does Xavier look this year?

LBlack14

ode

Look great!! Had a couple game lapse after moving into the top 10, but we strong!!

ode

LBlack14 might be on a crash course again with Wisconsin....what a game a year ago, although you guys were on the wrong end of that Koenig 3 at the buzzer, we got our hearts ripped out by Notre Dame in the sweet 16, ugh, still hurts a little.

PA-PLAYA agree, 1 and done is all over, even at respected places like Duke, who I hate with a passion, but KY is the worst offender, but they just keep coming. There is a place for developing talent over 4 years, Wisconsin has been doing it and been stellar in the dance the last 3 years, with no MacD all americans.....nothing pleased me more when they bounced KY from the tournament 2 yrs ago. Still a lot of good teams that can make a run.....that is the great thing about March madness,,,,there will always be guys like Calipari, but way more like Bo Ryan and Greg Gard, etc. doing it right.

PA-PLAYA

There is no tournament like March Madness. It is, by far, the best tournament of the year in any sport.

The excitement and drama just continues to deliver year after year after year.

You know what I miss? I miss the rivalries. I miss the days when Jerry Stackhouse (UNC) had a 3-time-per-year run-in with Grant Hill (Duke) for at least 3 seasons. With one-and-done, there are no rivalries anymore. I like my Cats, but I'm a college basketball fan. I respect the history and the rivalries. These days - there are no rivalries. The Indiana vs Kentucky game used to be a HUGE deal. Not any longer. The Louisville vs Kentucky game used to be a HUGE deal, but not any longer.

One-and-done has diluted college basketball to the point where there's very little history anymore. It's still exciting as hell for March Madness, don't get me wrong, but you definitely don't get the interesting storylines of two players who've gone at it head-to-head as rivals for 3-4 years. I miss that about college basketball. Those rivalries, those players who saw each other 3x per season for 3 or 4 seasons. You knew it was gonna be something special their last couple years of college.

As Archie Bunker sang, Those Were the Days....

ode

PA-PLAYA very good point, the long standing rivalries have suffered....those household names no longer stick around....it goes from the greatest tourney on the planet to who's going pro....can't blame the kids for going for the money, but it didn't happen at the rate it did years ago, Stackhouse and hill would not have given much serious consideration to go pro, as they wouldn't have played or they would have been left in the dust as 19 and 20 yr olds....nba brand has suffered in a big way too, almost unwatchable IMO.
