Diamond Stone

It is impressive how pathetic this place is sometimes.

Hey is this thread still about Diamond Stone? Did anyone mention that Wojo met with him yesterday?

[GOO]

I don't want to get personal, but if Groin Pull is a Marquette grad, he must have missed a lot of what the Jesuits have to say or simply rejected it.  We must have very different world views of our fellow humans and respect for the opposite sex.

Maybe this thread can be put on the superbar or behind the bar, and a new thread on Diamond Stone can be started.  This is just embarrassing.

Unfortunately a lot of these topics these days are being hijacked with stupidity. 

The Hangin' at the Al forum is turning into The Superbar Dumb forum with a lot of just plain childish posting behavior.  Its a lot of work but posts in topics like this one should be cleaned up to get back on topic or just plain locked after it gets completely out of control.

Glad that Wojo met with the Diamond and the family Stone.   Mods, any chance of you cleaning up this thread?

I think they would have to clean up 75% of the threads here. Is it any more annoying than the basketball threads ad nauseum about Derrick? Or the MikeDeanesDarkGlasses blitzkrieg?

There is plenty of good basketball info here. If you sat around at work with 4 or 5 guys and talked MU basketball, I think a lot of the banter would be off-topic pretty quickly just like here.

Sorry for the post about Diamond Stone, but thought it was relevant.

Dominican junior Diamond Stone, 6'10", took an unofficial visit to Marquette today. He's headed to Kansas City for AAU event this weekend.

Certainly not a bad thing getting to know Wojo. Seems like they've talked a lot in the last few days.

Smoothie got all hot and bothered about some volleyball cat a while ago, aina?

This just posted by me:
Spoke to a UCLA commit yesterday who was all smiles about the Bruins offerin' Stone. Just sayin'.

Same commit, while Wojo hasn't the lead recruiter for his services while at Duke, knows him and speaks highly of Steve.

I get it! You're trying to charm all of us by getting back on topic.

Can't imagine who it would have been

Yeah. James Shaw the setter from Stanford.

So basically, Looney likes Stone and Wojo. Both will be working hard to recruit him.

Having talent is one thing.  Being good with that talent is another. There are many talented people, but a much smaller % who do good with that talent

Everybody seems to think Stone to MU is a real possibility.  I would prefer to go after other guys, and if we get him, just be happy!!!!!!!!!!!!.  I tend to think there are a lot of MU fans that will be really disappointed if we don't land him.  The surprise will be if we do!  I would put the odds at less than 1/2 of 1 percent.  He will be like the typical local star who won't eliminate MU until the end. so the supply of game tickets does not dry up.  Just my thoughts.  I will bet my bottom dollar that he ends up at one of 5 schools.  KY, Duke, UCLA, Kansas or North Carolina.  Us MU fans want to believe he will come here, but with all the pressure, it's almost impossible for a top 10 guy to say no to one of those schools.  We would be better of if he was a fringe top 50 - 75 guy.
