For you Kevin O'Neill fans

[ChicosBailBonds]

Oh the irony.....from HoopDreams....remember when we were worth our salt?

                   
KO (to William Gates):  "If you don't make the test score, it doesn't mean we don't want you...because we still do-that's what I'm telling you.

If you tear your knee out again this year...and you can't play ever again...you're gonna have your education
paid for at Marquette University.

I know that the scholarship is one-year renewable.

Gene's right about this, but any school worth its salt is gonna give you four years.

   
                   
The bottom line is this-we want to win the national title.

Number two- I wanna make you the best player I can.

I wanna give you an opportunity to, maybe someday...be one of those guys that makes some money in Europe or in the NBA.

You're one of seven guys that we're recruiting right now.

   
                   
Gates:  You're recruiting seven guys?
KO:   Seven guys for three spots.

   
Gates Family Member:  Where he fit in?

KO:   Where does he fit in?

Gates Family Member: Yeah.

KO:  As soon as William tells me he's not looking at any other schools...then I'm not looking at any other players.

Gates Family Member:  So, what? The first one sign, that's -

KO:  Well- Well, that's what it's gonna come down to.  If I tell you that, hey, you're our guy and this and that...and I lose you to Kansas, Indiana,North Carolina State or something...

I'm out of luck."

"KO (to William Gates):  "If you don't make the test score, it doesn't mean we don't want you...because we still do-that's what I'm telling you."

That was back in the Prop 48 days, different times now. No place to stash someone who doesn't qualify- other than prep school, that is.

"If you tear your knee out again this year...and you can't play ever again...you're gonna have your education
paid for at Marquette University."

Isn't that basically what is happening with Liam? Didn't Otule break his foot twice? Wasn't there a point last summer when most thought Fulce's knee was going to end his career? Didn't Buzz stick with all of them?

Doesn't that tell you something? Like maybe IWB's account has some truth in it? I agree there are holes and we should not have accepted a signed LOI, and I hope to God Buzz doesn't do this again. But I don't know why you posted this.  You already know everything I said here.

I think we all know why he posted it - the lovefest for TC knows no bounds.

And I thought Murf had the market on annoying monotonous repetitive posts.

Exactly. It's getting ridiculous, and making this board damn near unreadable.

[madtownwarrior]

keep stroking your man crush on tan tommy...

keep trashing MU ever chance you get...


with fans like you, we really don't need the Badger trolls - do we...

[MU in Miami]

Exactly. It's getting ridiculous, and making this board damn near unreadable.

I can't keep track of these threads retreading the same thing--not sure how he can either.  I think he is attempting to get to 8000 posts by August.

Hope the mods consolidate this a bit.
