Title: Dear Archie,
Post by: Jim Sawdust on February 27, 2016, 06:54:07 PM
Or shall I can you Ryan?

At Christmas, when Nana gestures to kiss your cheek, do you give her the head fake and wounded look? Even from four steps away?

Do you think there's any basis to the Bride's suspicion that the refs are in on the bracketeer's plot to keep the East atop the Big East?

I hope you and the other Wildcats travel home as safely as you were enabled to travel in the Bradley Center this afternoon.

Mr. Sawdust, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this chat room is now dumber for having listened to it.

Haha what the hell?

I actually like Archy.

Been a while since I've seen this on the board!

If we had Archie on the floor this year we might have 22 wins today.

Interesting fact. ..compare Archie's freshman year stats to Haany this year. They are extremely similar.

Yes. But the beautiful thing is looking at Archie's sophomore stats.

Fantastic response

Conference champions and 29 wins but I am sure some fans called his decline in stats a sophomore slump.

Decline?

ORtg went from sub-100 to 112, shot almost 5 percentage points better in eFG%, turnover rate drops from 24 to 15....

Maybe you're speaking on ppg or other nonsensical stats... and getting confused re: my post... but, his performance was light years better as a sophomore. Haany is the type of player who can make a similar jump.

College basketball.....guards game....especially a point guard game.  I'd take an Archie level guy every day of the week.

I'd take a lot of guys before him, though. (nh)

If only SMU's sanctions had come down soon enough for Nic Moore to go grad transfer. Not that he'd have come here, but he'd be the difference between a team outside the bubble and a Big East title contender.

We're on the same page

The headline (ppg) stats declined but he played better and his team also improved

And yes if haany grows in the way Archie did we may be in for a great run over the next few years

This is the first time in 15 years that the use of this tired-ass movie line, that the use was both appropriate and humorous.  Well done.
