Re: Hot Stove 2010-11: Men's Basketball Edition

I have too many thoughts on the post by TK2 to post so I will just say rep points are due for the responses made by zooropa and Kemo.

I will say, I have been in contact w/ Bill Rader and he has nothing but good things to say about SDSU. A real class act. I just can't help, given the entire situation, that Nagy didn't have James best interest in mind. I really mean that. Make all the assumptions you want but given the history of Scott Nagy there is ZERO reason to assume he had any other intent.

Disagree. This is Clint and Dales team now. With everything that's happened, their leadership is crucial. The "young pups" are just that...young.

Also, you can discount Plaraca if you want,but he will be missed. He gave us a change of pace at pg and was a very good on the ball defender. I understand the staff has been looking for a juco combo guard to back up Nate and Clint, i hope they at least find a pg.

As far as A.C. i was critical of his play too, but i hoped they would find a post player to help him, didn't want to have to replace him. I think finding a Juco post player is going to be tough. They have to be in high demand.

Fine....as long as they play like it. I feel both have the makeup to be leaders this upcoming season. The "young pups" still remain a huge part of the program and, without a doubt, the future.

I don't feel I discounted Palarca. I will say, before this season, I knocked him, but he proved me wrong. I'm just saying that with Nate Wolters at the helm and taking a much bigger role, Mike was set to play about 10 minutes a game this next year. That makes it a little easier to walk away.

I will continue to bite my tongue when it comes to AC out of respect for what he did for the program.

I think it's called addition by subtraction. People might not believe it now, but this situation (having four scholarships) available in the late signing period might be the best thing to happen to us since the move to DI. We have an opportunity to finally add the kind of quality depth in personnel that can change a program overnight. In the NFL it's cap space with lots of good free agents available. Patience my friends. Exciting times are ahead for this program. We have the nucleous and now it's time to just round it out with the missing pieces!

Re: Hot Stove 2010-11: Men's Basketball Edition

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think I remember Kentucky coach John Callipari having to cut players. He brought in more recruits than he had available scholarships so "some players found themselves without a place on the team."

NOT the role model you want.

Loyalty is a two way street. Many are throwing Nagy under the bus for these four leaving. Are coaches because their adults supposed to be the only ones to show integrity? Is it Nagy's fault these kids fathered children while their schooling was being paid for and did that show good judgement? In my judgement Nagy is a pretty good role model.

Last time I checked they finished their elgibility and didn't cite family responsibilities from keeping their committment.

This is all you had to say about having kids on scholarship:

How are we supposed to know that's not what you meant?

I stated my opinion. If you want to debate than do it with yourself like usual.

A tweet from Nagy:

Does Coach Nagy and Coach Johnston even write those tweets? I was looking at Terry V.'s page also and it looks like he writes something with a @ sign in front of it, and the exact same thing is posted on the coaches pages like they wrote it. Does Terry V. run their Twitter pages?

Don't think that the other coaches in the summit won't be showing potential recruits the argus article....He was hand picked by Nagy....

That means he is re-posting it from their page. That way, people that follow Terry find out what Nagy or AJ tweeted even if they aren't following them.

No that means TV is quoting the coaches on his page

Michael leaving has NOTHING to do with having a child.

It's called a 'retweet', and it means he's repeating what they wrote.

TV would not be writing the tweets for those coaches. Furthermore, who are they going to have write their tweets? The AD receptionist?

Re: Hot Stove 2010-11: Men's Basketball Edition

I deleted a couple of posts that referred to two other students who have nothing to do with the present debate.
Carry on.

Thanks guys. I honestly had no clue about the Twitter thing.
