Quote from: DirkPiggler on May 10, 2024, 07:53 AMI'm afraid Calipari is used to having his games officiated the Kentucky way.  He's not accustomed to the Arkansas way of having 4-5 guys in foul trouble at all times and the other team shooting 10-15 more free throws per game.



Arkansas has had 4-5 players in foul trouble since the Nolan Richardson days mostly by design.  That is just the way they were coached.  A slapping defense was a trademark of Nolan's teams, and to a certain extent, Muss's.  I'll betcha Cal's teams won't foul nearly as much.
Apparently retarded member of the "fucking old people" crowd as defined by Swahili Steve.

Surely we can fill the last 3 or 4 spots with some blue collar type players for 30K-50K.

I saw a comment somewhere that we are looking at a kid overseas named Hugo Gonzalez. He's very good.

I read the same. Think he was projected #5 overall. Isn't there some rule that doesn't allow foreign players to receive NIL money?
The Lord wants you to put your foot on their balls and believe in it. 'Cuz that's what wins football games. Not jumping offsides like a bunch of wimps and faggots. I don't care what those pinkos over in Russia say. You want to be a loser? You go live in Russia. I'm a winner. I'm an American.

Just pay him under the table, the old fashioned way

You know they're getting paid some way. No way Edney came back last year with no NIL.

They've been getting paid since they started towering over their classmates.

Right. I guess my question is why come play over here if he's already getting paid by RE and he's projected to be a top 5 NBA pick?

People know the college stars but do you know the overtime elite or over seas guys?

Speaking of OE, I see Bryson Warren is at the G League combine. Will be interesting to see if he gets drafted.

Hogworth Ballington III

Any word on the visits we had this past weekend?

Cal is big about the family concept. La Familia as the eye-talians say it. I'd be very surprised if we don't get Wagner. Dajuan Wagner (his dad) played at Memphis St under Cal and from everything I've seen still has a relationship with Cal.

To answer your question I haven't seen any updates.

They replaced Aggy with the Horns as our 3rd home and away opponent. I wish Kentucky was one of them too.

I truly hope Texas gets the "welcome to the league" treatment that Arkansas got the first few 30 years, but I know they won't. TAM didn't. They got the carpet rolled out for them.
My kids and their friends are going to learn why us older folks absolutely HATE Texas.
The same people demanding everyone embrace your beliefs, have zero tolerance and condemn another for embracing theirs.  Oh, the irony.

I know Cal has coached in enough Ark-Ken games to understand that rivalry, but I hope someone explains to him what Ark-Tex means. He might thinks he knows but he doesn't.
I need help and I know it.

Texas has a very good backvourt in T Mark and Tre Johnson. Johnson may very well be the best freshman in the country. Kid can score.

Rodney Terry is not going to outcoach anyone.

and he's already let it be known he can't handle the horns down sign so he won't be long for the SEC.

I always thought it was interesting that there's a lot of German culture in Texas. Wurst and oompah music mixed with Mexican, and Shiner Bock.
