No.

Otule hasn't been granted a 6th year yet.

Only if Otule is granted a sixth year....but you already knew that because it has been discussed repeatedly.

This is so Chicos-like....it's like you're not even trying to hide it anymore.

Can the mods go through Hoopla's post history and realize that he is a troll and ban him?  He adds nothing of value to this board, and only tries to create drama. 

The question hoopla asked has been discussed at length many times on this board.  Hoopla is on this board non stop, and now pretends to naively and ask about the scholarship's tonight?....come on man.

In light of recent events, it is clear that there are people who are determined to cause this program harm, and I am pretty sure some of those people are on this board.

I never post, but can't believe stuff like this has become the topic of conversation during one of the most fun MU bb runs I have ever had the pleasure to watch.

no.  scholarships are given on a yearly basis, so we have plenty to offer for the 2013-2014 school year.  since we have no idea what buzz says to each individual player it's impossible to know how many have been offered for the 2013-2014, how many were told they would have to earn it on a yearl basis, etc.

if Otule gets his 6th year then we are one over. Why doesnt he just play and finish his career next year instead of weighing us down with his injuries? I like Otule he seems like a great kid but we need to think about our future and have as many open scholarships for top notch players like K. Nunn. if we can still get him, which we can cuz I know he likes us, we would have 2 great Simeon players to try and draw in the ultimate prize, Jabari Parker. Parker + MU = NC!

You're out of your element, MUFanatic4Life. 

So you have no frame of reference here, MUFanatic4Life.  You're like a CHILD who wanders into the middle of a fan message board and wants to know about MU's scholarship situation.

There is nothing to hide.  I asked a question, Titan provided an answer.  You provided nothing but more ranting.  The funny part is that Chicos does have a problem with Creaning \ Buzzcutting.  I don't.  They are one year scholarships, not 4 year scholarships.  You probably don't appreciate the humor in that.

I don't read every post, but I do invite the moderators to review my posting history.  I love MU as much as you do.  It was an honest question and frankly I have no problem if a player has to leave.  This is big boy basketball.   While the moderators are doing this, I would invite them to look at your IP address along with Orange Soda's and probably 15 other guys to find matches.  That would be a fun exercise as well, don't you think?

Why don't we just get rid of Otule? Then we can get Parker and every other 5-star recruit. Because the only thing keeping the 5-star recruits from beating down MU's door is that Otule might get a sixth season.

Typically it's the smaller guys who have a problem playing high in D1.  Something about pot messing up depth perception or something.  The big guys can still play just fine in the paint, they just get called for more fouls because of all the hugging.

Feel free to name the other 15 guys you think I am.  We already know I'm not chigoldeneagle, so only 15 more to go.  And really, why would I go through the trouble of making multiple aliases and talking to myself?  One voice is enough for me.  If it's to drum up support for the idea that your agenda is obvious and tiresome, well, I can see in this thread alone that I'm not the only one who feels that way.

When I first read your response, I found myself quite confused.  I couldn't fathom why someone would do what you're accusing me and others of.  Luckily, as Rocky points out, you've been doing exactly that!  I look forward to you enlightening me with your explanation.

So you wouldn't mind having someone let go that you know nothing about?  Great to see you really thought hard about that one.  Obviously he was recruited for a reason.  Buzz just doesn't pull players names out of a hat.

Essentially... Chigoldeneagle isn't anonymous - he has a registered email with his first and last name. and his IP address (his computer's internet "name") isn't shared by any other poster (basically saying it's unlikely he is a poster with multiple user names). Hoopaloop has no identifying email address, he accesses the internet through anonymous portals (the VPNs) and he has computer internet "name" that is shared with other posters (so he could be one guy with multiple user names)

Exactly.  It is absolutely false that "he will not be granted a sixth year," because he hasn't officially even applied for one...and can't until the end of next year's season.  So to even make an absolute statement on the topic is a dumb thing to do.

Buzz certainly talked like he was going to get a sixth year.  He meets the requirements for being granted one.  Now, he may not, but MU doesn't know that absolutely.

I wouldn't go so far as to say "I would let him go", but I agree that he is an unknown at this point. I don't put a ton of stock in rankings, but I want to say he was in the 90s (ESPN) when we signed him, and he is now an 88. I like that his ESPN profile says he is a hard-nosed player that will fit in great with Buzz' system. That's nice to hear and all..but isn't this kid just going to be buried on the bench for quite some time?

At his size, he will play primarily the 3, maybe some at the 2. He has Mayp, Vander, Jamail, Juan, TJ Taylor, and maybe other to compete with for playing time. He has put up 30 points in two of his past three games, according to the Scout sites recruit stats page, and also hits a fair amount of 3s. I don't think MU should just throw the guy under the bus, but does anyone actually know much about him?

Edit: I also love that his name is Jamal!! Jamil, Jamail, Jamal...how cute.

Yes indeed this kid will be buried deep on the bench. He is currently ranked as the 10th best 2012 prospect in Virginia. Thats not impressive.

I think I've figured out GOMU85's process.  

1.  Find random player to take a dump on
2.  Throw a bunch of crap on the wall about how said player doesn't meet his criteria of how a player should play
3.  Play victim card incessantly without provocation
4.  When facts get in the way of his theories he repeats step 3 and then disappears for a bit
5.  Refer to step one with new player

He can't moron.  He's already been admitted to the University.  Nice try though.

Seriously, mods should cut you off at the knees.

Jamal is rated higher than Todd Mayo was at this point last year. I am almost positive that Todd was an 86, and Gardner was an 84 or so...It has been noted multiple times that when a player commits early they don't get evaluated as often anymore so the ranking simply goes down. I have seen some videos of Jamal he is fast, and can shoot the ball. We need shooters, and I feel like he deserves to be here. Yes is eerily reminiscent of a Newbill...He is ranked about the same and committed a long time ago and we haven't talked about him much, but I think he will be more like Todd than Newbill.

So how certain are people that hoopaloop is in fact CBB? He sure seems like it, right down to the Crean and "Purdue" love. Assuming true, how truly pathetic is he to claim he is friends with Chicos, and cite his positions? I just can't stop laughing about it.

However, if he comes clean, he will be banned again?

I find the whole thing quite fascinating.

I enjoyed the fact that Hoop's first post in that thread was after Chicos was banned. We need Don Walker and Bill Michaels to team up so we can finally get an answer on this.

His length and athleticism are great. But he shot is very awkward, and it looks like something he needs to develop. I like his length though, and still think he can contribute. Part of the reason his ranking may have fallen is that he committed early, and many people have ignored any improvement he may have had. I look forward to seeing him on campus.

100%. there is no doubt and the ip and email e idence merely confirms what I already knew.

I honestly believe this guy is so deranged and the "process" the brought us Buzz Williams (thank God) that he not only disrupts the entire board during yet ANOTHER Sweet 16 run, bit I believe he's also planting AD Williams is not happy with Coach Williams stuff with bloggers like the guy from the Sun Times a few days ago.

I believe there's a mental illness here and I again ask the board to ban this iteration Chicos as well as whatever posters share is VPN/IP and let the rest of us in on this total charade.

Fun? no.  Easy?  Yes.  Chigoldeneagle doesn't have a shared IP with anyone and actually registered with a first.last sort of e-mail address.  He's not hiding from anyone.  You continually post from anonymous VPNs, use a "hoopaloop...@..." e-mail address, and have shared IPs with other posters.

Careful what you wish for here big fella.


I registered on this site with my real email address.  I have nothing to hide.  The email address was then changed.  For security reasons, I will be happy reveal part of it.  I registered under robert_gXXXXXX (the X's are not actually x's).  It wasn't until a few months ago that I changed the email address on MU Scoop, but most certainly used my first name and middle initial when I registered.  If it makes people feel better, I can change back my email address to my original registered email with my name.  Will even make it public if that is what people wish.  I have nothing to hide.

We use VPN at my company for anyone working offsite or on travel.  That is part of our security protocol.  At my old job we used the RSA VPN security which would require someone to carry a token and input the correct 6 digit RSA token number (changed every minute).  At our company we use ProVPN, but similar concept.  The difference is that you are not required to have the token because there is a piece of software that generates the random security codes for the employee.

I have only registered here one time and one time only.  When I travel, we log in from the nearest location.  For example, a few weeks ago I was in Seattle on business.  We log in in to the Seattle VPN gate.  If I'm in the Denver office, we log in to the Denver VPN gate. New York, San Francisco or Los Angeles, same thing. All software driven through our security protocol.  If you would like, I suppose I could take my wife's laptop and go to a Starbucks and get on to their free WiFi.

::)

For someone as obsessed as you are the mental illness comments are probably hitting a bit close to home.  You don't know what you are talking about as I just explained quite clearly in my previous response.  I registered with my name via email but only changed it a few months ago to Hoopaloop email address.  I will happily change it back if that makes you feel better.  We use VPN at work, called ProVPN.  It is part of our security protocols.  Many companies use VPN as a requirement of their IT department remote logins.  So now you're 0 for 2.

I did not care about the hiring process.  Buzz Williams is a great coach.  I'm as excited as can be about the Sweet 16 and our run this year.  How have I disrupted anything on this board?  I have one username and one username only on this board.  The MU85 character or anyone else that you don't disagree with you can accuse me of being all day.   Doesn't make it so.  I'm so happy the conspiracy stuff is working for you.  I'm sure you're happy to have that in your holster so you can try to disparage someone you don't care for by claiming it's an imposter of some kind.  That will make this board very productive in the years to come.  Everyone you don't agree with, you can just pull that card out.

2. Lenny, it posts your total posts on all old threads.  His link is indeed his first post.



As an aside .. It is simply unreal the amount of crap that is going on on Scoop these past 2-3 weeks, with trolls, flamers, personal attacks, passive aggressive oneupmanship .. One would think we had nothing better to do THAN TALK ABOUT OUR SWEET 16 TEAM.

Facepalm after facepalm after facepalm.
