He did things in college basketball that would be penalties in the NFL today.

But when Korver was on the bench the other team didn't swing elbows, well they didn't do it more than once.

ESPN #42 (Grandstaff at 41 and McClure at 59). Bacon at 40.

Let's get a top 10 and load up on 25-50! (Barefield not top 60 but Thomas still at 6 and Davis at 30 . . . will be interesting to see how that ends up with Davis back playing now and Thomas out during summer ball). Hogg seemed to have moved up (now at 25 and #2 player in TX).

I think Hoopmanx and most had him as a Creighton lean.


I did until last week. Spoke w a member of bluejay staff, and they were grillin me about a transfer from Maryland at mcquaids same position.asked if it was a conflict, he told me he wasn't getting mcquaid. I thought he was a bluejay lean prior to that

Don't sweat class rankings they are so subjective, and mostly based on numbers. Smu will have qiuality and depth in this cLass. Not leaving the top 10

Ok.

If we miss on Thomas or Davis, I also like Baptiste. Inexperienced and raw, but seems to have tremendous upside . .

...more athletic than he appears...gym rat...Kyle Korver


In other words, he's white.

Good point Ponyboy. We all know there no black players are gym rats (sarcasm). I understand Barefield is a gym rat as well to be fair to him. Glad to have both of them.

I think it was in reference to more athletic than he appears. His appearance is that of a white boy. White boys associated with being unathletic.

No one is a bigger gym rat than Ray Allen.

Pretty sure it was a reference to some of the Ticket bits about descriptions of white players.

Probably so but you know those terms that the media uses about white players being smart, gym rats, hard working etc while they never hardly use those terms refer to black players. I think there is a least one black player that is smart, a gym rat, hard worker etc. :D
