threw the poor kid under the bus.

Unlucky bus.

I really wanted Buzz to go after Jones when he was coming out of JUCO. I think he was the top-rated JUCO player in the country, certainly the top PG. Something tells me he might have fit our old culture but likely not the new one we're trying to create.

Buzz did go after Jones out of JUCO.  At least to the extent that Jones let him.

Maybe Jones was unhappy with how he was being treated by the coach and was therefore justified to fire up any shot he wanted when he did get on the floor.   Maybe the coach, with an axe to grind and something to prove to the administration, did not take well to this.

Here is the money quote...


"I'm not worried about anything that anybody has to say about me," Jones said after the Miami game. "I came a long way, I'm telling you, from (throwing) garbage cans in gyms to wanting to fight every game to keeping it inside. I know how to manage it by just playing hard."

When will Pitino learn that Louisville ain't Duke.

From a reporter's twitter in Lexington:

Chris Jones quit the team at Christmas...he was allowed back on and then was part of a fight at 4th Street last Saturday
3:22 PM - 22 Feb 2015

As for why Chris Jones was brought back for one Game and then dismissed, my guess is UL folks know fight will soon be made public
3:26 PM - 22 Feb 2015

Is that real?

[TVDirector]

Didn't think it was possible to dribble down one's leg while wearin' Chuck Taylor's or being caught for 3 seconds in the lane, but guess I was mistaken, ai na?

with age, you dribble down your leg regardless the sneaker's you're wearing.

Is that real?

That was Charlie Strong's list for the football team.

[4everwarriors]

Great, somethin' to look forward to, hey?

[wadesworld]

That was Charlie Strong's list for the football team.

Wow.  That is awesome.  Set the standards high.

Wow.  That is awesome.  Set the standards high.

Yeah it's sad.  But Strong is actually one of the good guys in college football.  He doesn't put up with much.

[rocky_warrior]

Most of this thread is making fun of TW and his absurd opinion of Wojo, but it is unlikely he will respond. 

Very, very, very, very unlikely. 

[wadesworld]

Very, very, very, very unlikely.  

I see...

It has been a bit...quieter...over the last day and a half here.

[Spotcheck Billy]

Can any y'all provide me with the definition of a "Louisville man"?

someone with a lot of wood?

[tower912]

Is that why he popped up on the scout board?

I don't venture over there.  Went and looked in 1 thread...is he the gr8one?

No,  not at all.   Gr8one is actually a former player with some killer rebounding stats from the 1950s; a good guy overall but many find him somewhat stubborn.   I am curious as to who knows TW's handle over there?  Ner[d] s and he make this board near-unreadable,  and TW appears to be pushing some agenda the liked of which I'm uncertain.

Gotcha.  Just looked at 1 thread, saw the volume of posts gr8one had, and saw the....pauses like this...but I did think it would be odd for Ners to create pauses where the actually make sense instead...of like...this...

[GGGG]

gr8one used to post here too as "Murffieus."  Here he is.

No, he is 'Texas Western'.   So far, only a couple of posts and hasn't really done anything annoying.
