Every picture tells a story, don't it?
With apologies to Rod Stewart, a scene from practice Tuesday night at the Al.

I appreciate that Hunt is getting after it, but "stories" like this seem to be just amping up the click count to get people over their free article minimum. Just a picture of Buzz diagramming a play.

Wow, some people can never be happy. First they whine because of little attention paid to MU by sportswriters. Then they whine because too much attention is paid. Pitiful.

+1,000,000
And how dare those J-S a--holes expect people to pay for their product after a mere 180 freebies a year.
I see a guy named Buzz who makes 2 Mill a year, consumed by the moment, on his knees teaching... and all the players paying attention. Doing what he preaches and not changed by the money he makes... not dressed in a nice suit at practice acting like a CEO.
Does he look like a toddler to anyone else?
Do find it interesting that it appears in the picture you have:
Junior
Van
Lockett
Otule (basing that off of big knee brace)
and....Jake Thomas??!! Say what?

Not interesting at all.
I am happy that Hunt is giving program attention. I think he has done nice job thus far.

I find it interesting you determined it to be Otule based on his knee brace and not on the fact his face is clearly visable.

I think the most interesting thing is that Vander continues to wear the number 2 in practice. He did so at Madness as well.
I think the most interesting thing is Buzz's shirt.
I thought Chess King went out of business.

Isn't that his number?
It was. He changed to 13.

Agreed. That shirt is awful.

Horizontal stripes are slimming.

It's a nod to the bumblebee uniforms.

I thought vertical stripes were slimming? Aren't horizontal stripes widening?

You sir, are correct.

Well played.

Sorry PTM - I'll work on making my posts more interesting for you. My bad thinking a walk on shown in a huddle with 4 other presumable starters was "interesting."
Thanks for you wonderful contributions to this thread.

Just wanted to damper your wild speculation before the whole thread took off on a tangent that Jake Thomas is better than every player not in that picture. Someone would then add gas to the fire and ask 'Where's Mayo?'.
Nothing better than creating a sheetstorm over a picture taken from a practice in mid-October.

I'm surprised you didn't accuse Larry Williams of forcing Buzz to include a walk-on in every random team photo.
Buzz is likely to take the next job offer over such meddling. ::)
That pic was Buzz drawing up a play for the end of a game which is tied and we have the ball. MU bball tweeted it yesterday.

It was a Marquette v. Marquette scrimmage.

I'm surprised a post of yours didn't contain a reference to Tom Crean....then again, you've been refreshingly absent of late with regard to your champion the Crean legacy crusade, while minimizing the accomplishments of our current coach. Thanks. It's been nice.

Hypothetical situation, presumably.
A while back I remember someone posting that there is a way to get around JS' limit on articles per month. Anyone know how to do this for safari or firefox? Seems like there was a browser setting that could be changed to accomplish this.
If you were an unethical person, you'd go to "private browsing" in Safari and you can read as many articles as you want.

Thanks! guess i'll throw my hat in the ring for the next chicago mayoral election after all.

There's articles online that argue both ways. Personally, I think being slim is slimming. Though dark clothes are definitely better than light colors.
I'm mad that they weren't practicing free throws.

What'll that do to our seed line in the tourney?
PS. I4 uses a smart board, not a wipe board.
But its a smart board written by a dumb ass.
Where's Mayo?
