The point of this post has nothing to do with the results of the Florida State and NC State games.  I was simply throwing out the idea that if Buzz doesn't foresee Mbao being ready this year, why waste a year of his eligibility when you can redshirt him, put weight on him, make him stronger, and improve his overall game on the court......and still have him for an additional four years.  You're right that doesn't make ANY sense at all.

as has been said in other posts.

Red shirting Mbao makes that class have 6 people in it.  Hard to balance class sizes and recruiting with 6 schollies in one year.

I'd probably select a different nickname for the ladies of Cobeen.  "Beeners" has a negative connotation.

Boo hoo. The ladies of Cobeen are "Beeners". like it or not.

agreed.  and +1 to the tab floats.  that always killed me how they thought just because they used tab instead of coke, it was ok to eat that much ice cream.

It shouldn't if you spell it out...  now "Beaners" that is a different story.

I grew up in the Southwest, and you could get your ass kicked for calling someone a beaner.  Imagine my surprise a couple of years ago when I was in Toledo and there was a coffee shop called "Beaners."
