  1. Sad in a way because he has as much talent as any rookie big man I've seen in a long time. A laidback, "do whatever the hell you want" coach like Calipari seems like the only way he can stay in line. He wasn't THAT bad at Kentucky.
  2. Sorry, but fans don't really give the slightest care whether or not their athletes graduate. That isn't what brings the university the big bucks athletically. They want their team to win. Do you honestly think guys like Demarcus Cousins, John Wall, etc. went to Kentucky for the education they will be receiving? A bunch of athletes wouldn't even get accepted to these schools if they weren't given athletic scholarships in the first place. It's the sad part of college sports, but it's also the truth. Coaches aren't given extensions or bigger job offers for graduation rates, it may affect it, but it's one of the last things that comes into consideration.
  3. So this basically dismisses any chance Memphis previously had to join the Big East. Doesn't make sense at all geographically as mentioned before.
  4. First time I've seen a Cavs game this season, and I have to say I'm impressed with their fanbase. A packed house to go see two mediocre teams play is pretty impressive for the NBA these days.
  5. I think Hollins is trying to get a point across. I like this move. Mayo needs to wake up.
  6. It seems to be getting more and more common for lottery picks to spend some time in the D-League,
  7. I thought he would start instantly for the Thunder. He looked like one of those players that was already polished, and wasn't going to improve that much more once he got into the NBA. I still think he'll have a solid career as a defensive and rebounding center.
  8. It's going to be fine. More boos, maybe somebody will throw something, but I don't think we'll see anything shocking in regards to crowd reactions. I see it becoming something like Nick Saban coming back to Tiger Stadium.
  9. Improving his jumper has done wonders for him this season. He's going to be a player of the year candidate if UCONN keeps it up.
  10. This may be one of the best shooting teams ever. I thought last season's National Championship was a fluke, but Duke is looking great.
  11. The team may be young, but they are way to talented to underachieve like this.
  12. I don't know if that's sarcasm or not, but Ole Miss got beat by Tennessee worse than Memphis did. Ole Miss's defense is trash and Masoli doesn't fit that system. LSU may be the luckiest team in the country, but in the end, they've lost one game in SEC play. With that said, I'll be surprised if Les Miles lasts more than two seasons.
  13. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWxNrfqhJYM Just stumbled across this. Spitta kills a [expletive]ty beat.
  14. Grizzlies need to get their heads out of their asses. We're a much better team than this, but we're playing sloppy and getting outplayed.
  15. Just because he's big doesn't mean he'll even come close to an NFL roster. He'll be in this late thirties by then, and he's not even that good of a pure athlete to begin with.
  16. When they're all part of a group, I think Method Man is at his best. I put Raekwon above him because his solo albums are so damn good. Even though Tical is a pretty good album.
  17. I love Method Man's charistha when he raps with the rest of the group, but his solo career isn't on the level of GZA, Ghostface, or Raekwon. Raekwon is the most talented MC on the Wu-Tang Clan. Not to mention he's released two solo albums that can definitely can be considered classics (OBFCL, Pt. 1 is one of my five favorite albums of all time).
  18. Send me the link whenever you can. After Kanye's album, this is the album I've looked forward to the most after the summer.
  19. Well, I see that you're a student at the U of M and a Memphis fan, so I think we'll get along well. Welcome, I might be seeing you around campus next year.
  20. Well after watching Barton today, he's looking damn good. Especially considering he missed 17 practices and is playing on a bad ankle.
  21. I got the exclicit off a torrent website. PM me if you want a link.
