Ask 4ever, like Otter he's a triple major in pre-law, pre-dent, and pre-med.

I wasn't asked, but I would guess he has vitiligo;  a condition where your autoimmune system thinks the pigment in your skin is attacking your body.  It results in areas of no pigment.  Especially apparent on dark skinned individuals.  Michael Jackson claimed he had it and took the step of bleaching all pigment from his skin so as not to appear blotchy.  No known cause, no known cure, irreversible.

Yes, thank you, it's call providencitis. Similar to crotch rot, but confined to those, with the thankless job, of coaching men's basketball at PC.

As a basketball junkie, and living close to the Bridgeport Arena where Fairfield U plays, I went to many games coached by Cooley, and always wondered what the problem was.  I thought it was burns or something like that.  Anyway, the guy is the exact opposite of his predecessor at Providence, as he is a defense first, second and third kind of coach and an excellent recruiter.  His teams at Fairfield were successful but played a dull brand of basketball.

Neat reply, hags.

I thought it was pretty neat. How neat is that? and to the person that insulted the coaching job at PC, look at their recruiting class next year and you will realize Cooley was a home run hire. Ledo and Dunn are going to be studs and they lose absolutely no one from this years team. The freshman Henton on this years team plays alot like Zar. PC will be pretty good for the next couple of years.

Does that game at Providence College scare anybody after they b*tch-slapped UL last night?

Every Big East road game will be tough.  UConn lost at Rutgers and a much-improved Seton Hall in back to back games.  Imagine the meltdown here if those were our losses instead of at #1 Syracuse and #9 Georgetown!  Hell the home games won't be gimmes either.  St. John's just beat Cincy @ Cincy, who then turned around and won at Georgetown.  What's to say St. John's can't come in here and win tonight?  There's top talent on every Big East roster.  I could see Melvin, Young and Kelly from DePaul giving us fits too.  Just gotta get to 10 wins, get one in the Big East tournament and see what we can do in the dance.  Anything on top of that is gravy at this point.

You had me until the last two sentences.

1 BE tourney win and just "getting into" the dance would not be a "good year" IMO. In fact, I'd say that would be a disappointing year...(even without Otule).

 Nobody remembers WHY you finish where you did (injurys to players - DJ, Travis, etc) as offopsed to HOW/WHERE you finish.

To be clear, I'm saying that's the bear minimum we should accomplish.  I think we have an opportunity to go 13-5, but there's not a huge margin of error between that and 10-8 with the way this Big East season has begun for us and everyone else.

The DD Center is not an easy venue to play on the road, but I'm not, and I don't think the team is "scared."  If you play as poorly as Louisville did last night, and PC plays as well as they've played all season, then yes, you'll get blown out.   
Let's win these next three at home, then head there ready to play some defense by shutting down Council and not letting Batts and some of their bigs get easy scores.

Agreed. I can go with that.

Hey, BrewCity BallCrusher my son has alopecia and gets a lot of BS comments like yours.  He's eleven and doesn't deserve those kind of comments.  Maybe you need to grow up a little.  Perhaps if you had to deal with daily comments like yours you would understand.

The bigger question that inquiring minds want to know and would ask is:

WHAT WRONG IS ON OR IN YOUR HEAD FOR ASKING THIS AND MAKING A THREAD OUT OF IT? What's in your head? Delirium? Lock this....very tacky.

Hey, I apologize to anyone I offended with my comment.  Especially if there were any kids affected.  I would never direct a wisecrack like that at a child.  Sometimes there's a really fine line between humor and insensitivity and I guess I fell on the wrong side of that line for some of you.

My son doesn't have any hair.  Period.

The subject is never material for alleged humor directed at a child or adult who has this condition.  Thank you for considering this issue and the apology.
