People don’t like it because it’s me that said it. If it were onlyu/butterball or whatever he’s calling himself these days, everyone would agree, and that is fine with me.

You are choosing to read my comments in an overly negative tone. I’m not complaining. I’m not dogging the guy. I’m expressing a valid concern. I didn’t say he was going to suck. I haven’t lamented the current state of our program. I even said I it was nice to have another guy for depth. I don’t see anything negative about any of that.
You say I’m…[Read more]

I don’t see this as negativity. It’s just the reality. Do you honestly think I’m wrong? He was at VT for two years and had a total of 128 yards. The next year, in a muuuuuch lower division of football, he had 285 yards. His YPC was quite good at around 6, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll do that here.
It’s just like someone else (I forget…[Read more]

I sure hope his lack of production at his last spot was due to injury or some other non-football reason, because his production thus far is not inspiring confidence. Nice to have another guy I guess.

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic WR Tobias Merriweather is a Ute!! in the forum Football 2 months, 2 weeks ago
This is good news, but I’m not going to get my hopes up. There were like 5 WRs ahead of him at Cal in terms of production.
One thing I do like is that he seems to be someone that stretches the field well. Most of his catches seem like long-ball type plays.

You are calling my take dumb when your take doesn’t even address what I actually said. HILARIOUS! I never said our team was better. I never said I preferred the greater size (vertically anyway) of last year’s team. I never said those players were anything to strive for. Someone said the team was built around length. I pointed out that we had more…[Read more]

Yes, he is. Keita is not on this team. I don’t care how tall they are. They can be 10 inches tall. If they average 2 blocks a game, they will be a good rim protector. The height isn’t the point. A tall guy would be nice to have in case that is needed. We just need rim protection, which we do not have much of at the moment (unless these guys just…[Read more]

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic Babacar Faye in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months, 2 weeks ago
We may have a rim protector on the team, but it is hard to say because most of the guys have only had about 15 minutes a game to go off of. Looks like we have two guys that averaged around a block per game over their careers. Either of them could potentially increase that total next year. However, I think if either one is the rim protector, our…[Read more]

I don’t care how tall they are. We need a rim protector. Houston had a rim protector. Nobody said we had a good rim protector last year. Also, I am not and was not complaining about anything AJ has done. I know the roster isn’t complete. What part of saying we need a rim protector suggests I think AJ doesn’t know that?
Maybe read what I say and s…[Read more]

Yes, height is not a necessary condition of length. What is your point? That doesn’t mean I’m wrong. Our team was both taller and longer last year. What we did not have was athleticism.

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic Babacar Faye in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months, 2 weeks ago
Right now we have athletic players. We need a tall and athletic player to protect the rim. That will be key if we want to play a high-pressure, aggressive defense.

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic Babacar Faye in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months, 2 weeks ago
I like the athleticism. I’m not sure why you think this team has a lot of length though. Our tallest guy at the moment is 6 ft 9. The Point Guard on last year’s team was 6 ft 8. What we didn’t have last year was athleticism. I’m glad we have that. Now we need a rim protector or two and a shooter or two.

Good pickup
Now we NEED NEED NEED a rim protector (two actually), and at least one more shooter.

I don’t care if people downvote me. If people don’t like my tone, that is their problem. Why? Because I have never insulted anyone on this site, neither have I ever said anything that is deliberately meant to offend. If people choose to read negativity or a harsh tone into my words, that is their choice. They could also choose to read my posts…[Read more]

I’m sorry, where in my post did I criticize AJ? The only thing my comment addressed was whether or not this guy is a true PG, which he most certainly is not. We had a true point guard, and that true point guard is now gone. I didn’t say that was bad. I didn’t say that was good. I just pointed out that Rick was incorrect to assume this guy is a true pg.

chinngiskhaan replied to the topic New 4* Guard Basketball Transfer in the forum Basketball (Men) 2 months, 3 weeks ago
Seems like a good pickup. We are going to struggle shooting the ball unless these guys all start shooting a bit better. Also, we still don’t have anyone on the team taller than 6 ft 9 (unless they are some scrub holdover from last year I’m not aware of).
That being said, I’d rather have a strong, athletic team that can bully teams on defense.…[Read more]

What makes you think he’s a true Point Guard? He averaged 1 assist and 1 turnover per game. I’m not dogging him as a player. Glad to have him, but he is NOT a true point guard. Further, Mike Sharavjamts was much more of a true point guard than this guy. Sharavjamts averaged double the assists and the same amount of turnovers in 7 minutes less per…[Read more]
