Charles Shackleford quoted in the Lakers Magic game. talking about how good Howard is with both his right and left hands.

1/20/2012 10:24:28 PM

lol

1/20/2012 11:22:03 PM

no way howell gets relegated to the bench his senior year, thats just absolute crazy talk

zo
purvis
wood
leslie
howell

1/21/2012 4:51:51 PM

we'll actually have a bench next year

that'll be the biggest difference

1/21/2012 4:56:54 PM

^^ agreed.



WHAT ABOUT PAINTER AND VANDENBERG GUISE?!

1/21/2012 5:25:56 PM

I wonder if we'll be hearing recruit Amile Jefferson's decision this week?

1/23/2012 11:09:59 AM

^ this

and I wonder how things are going with TG - haven't heard a peep since Christmas

1/23/2012 11:29:13 AM

Do you guys want Torian Graham? He's good but his character seems to be a big question mark. He's too floppy.

1/23/2012 11:46:58 AM

Yes we absolutely still want Torian.

Well we wanted Harrow too, and look how that played out. I'm not saying Graham will be the same, I'm just pointing this out. If the staff isn't recruiting him anymore, this could be the reason. They probably know more than we do.

1/23/2012 12:44:05 PM

What? What does Harrow have to do with anything? He transfered after the coach who recruited him got canned.

With the recent news of TG leaving the school he was at, I'm kinda doubting he's going to qualify anywhere this year (pure speculation). Let's just remember he's a kid (who's mom recently died).

1/23/2012 12:50:21 PM

I didn't realize his mom just passed...that's rough on a kid that age...i know first hand.

Harrow was told by Gottfried that Zo was going to be the starter at PG and CJ would be the 2. Combine that with having no rapport with Gottfried and that is why Harrow left. I know this for a fact.

dang, you got inside sources?

so apparently we were gold until Duke entered the picture dammit

1/23/2012 1:38:58 PM

gah, fuck duke

1/23/2012 1:42:06 PM

Lets be those Fuckers in their house and see how it shakes out.

Fuck Duke!!

1/23/2012 1:48:46 PM

i had this discussion yesterday about AJ ... he will be a Devil, unfortunately, unless a wolfpack miracle happens

Yes, very good ones.


Has Duke been recruiting him the whole time or did they just recently drop in?

^^^^ It's been obvious enough. Better the kid no commit, than commit and reneg on it.

1/23/2012 1:50:15 PM

Recent.

1/23/2012 1:50:21 PM

Just offered and became heavily interested in him in the last month or two

1/23/2012 1:50:48 PM

that's even worse

does he not realize that other teams saw his value WAY BEFORE DUKE DID?

1/23/2012 1:51:21 PM

i really think his parents have a lot to do with this
they are pushing to go to a strong academic school ... not say that we arent but, you know

1/23/2012 1:53:30 PM

I wish Coach K would fucking retire. WE ALL KNOW YOU DIE YOUR HAIR MOTHERFUCKER. YOU AREN'T FOOLING ANYONE.

He's a stupid brat who whined half of the time? Not the kind of player you want on your team, no matter how good he is.

1/23/2012 3:22:34 PM

that's like, your (uniformed) opinion.

1/23/2012 3:32:53 PM

Yeah, I'm very uninformed since I watched nearly every game and kept up with his twitter all of last season.

1/23/2012 3:52:14 PM

dang, it's like yall are bffs. i'm sure you'll be watching him kill-it at kentucky next year.

1/23/2012 3:59:52 PM

Kill it? Really? He's a good player but he's not going to automatically beat out any of the current starters.

http://www.ukathletics.com/sports/m-baskbl/mtt/kty-m-baskbl-mtt.html

They have 9 guards on that team. One of them is a senior and with Marcus Teague and Archie Goodwin (next year), Harrow is going to seriously give up minutes.

1/23/2012 5:04:46 PM

i'm just saying, he's going to be good. to hear it from some on here (and a lot of PP), he was a bust. which really wasn't the case.

1/23/2012 5:11:38 PM

well if he wants to be good, he needs to gain some weight, develop a shot that does not include a layup, and stop whining when he doesn't get playing time or the ball.

[Edited on January 23, 2012 at 5:13 PM. Reason : he should also think about taking some testosterone medications]

1/23/2012 5:13:07 PM

I had a huge man crush on Harrow last year up until I witnessed him sit out the unc game in chapel hill because he was "sick". Even though he was smiling and chatting it up with people during warmups, fuck that guy

1/23/2012 5:23:17 PM

he has talent but has absolutely no honor or sense of commitment to something bigger than himself and the Wildcat fanbase will eat him alive if he makes a mistake

good riddance

1/23/2012 5:26:18 PM

I've said it before, and I'll keep saying it.

Fuck that guy.

1/23/2012 5:36:55 PM

he'll get what's coming to him

karma is a bitch you should never fuck with

well he didnt live up to his hype here so what do you call that?

1/23/2012 5:57:59 PM

I thought be played fine for a true freshman. Good lord he wasn't a bust.

1/23/2012 6:02:57 PM

most of it is Lowes fault anyways so its really moot

1/23/2012 6:05:22 PM

He averaged over 9 points and 3 assists a game in 23 mins, but shot pretty poorly, except on fts. I, for one, wasn' expecting him to come in and lead the team from the get-go. He'll only get better with size and experience (and by playing on a much better team than the '10/'11 Pack).

Back to recruiting, i'm pretty anxious to see which big man we get. I'm assuming the staff is planning on getting someone, whether its AJ, Gathers, that JuCo Young. Is there still any interest in that 7'+ foreign guy, Bojovansky or watever?

1/23/2012 6:21:30 PM

player no longer on our team is no long on our team

1/23/2012 6:37:33 PM

As I've said before, I'll be very happy if we get Gathers instead of Jefferson. Jefferson looks like all potential at this point, a skinny kid waiting to grow into his NBA-grade frame. Gathers is already filled out and ready to terrorize opposing defenses, but since he's only 6'6", he ain't jumping early to the NBA.

1/23/2012 7:39:51 PM

^
Starting to get on that train of thought as well. Hope we get one or the other.

1/23/2012 7:58:17 PM

i'm sure his parents have little to do w/ him being interested in duke at the last minute.

when a program of duke's stature starts talking, you start listening no matter how far along in the process it is.

1/23/2012 8:08:23 PM

duke fans are comparing him to lance thomas

that would immediately make me eliminate them
