Have single game tickets gone on sell yet? Me and some friends are going to the Gonzaga game 

I thought I read where there would be no single game ticket sales because of the number of season tickets sold. Could be wrong though.

Has to be a mistake. I've been told this team can't make 3 pointers. 

Seems like a fair worry considering the perceived lack of outside shooters and that Hunter made 27% of his 3s last year. However, the freshman->sophomore jump in shooting percentage usually happens if the player is good enough so we'll see.

If you were alive little gooey, you were probably in the middle of being house and toilet trained so you probably don't know that Chaminade beat Ralph Sampson and he never won an NCAA hoops title so thanks for making my point as most of your posts do.

Ok, boomer.

Who is Ralph Sampson.

One half of the new Twin Towers that the Longhorns recruited. I think the other guy is better though.

I love that GregOldGym seems to be arguing it was impossible to predict how good Ralph Sampson was right before his senior season.  The guy was a two-time Naismith Award winner at the time, and won it again that year.

Man, go take a walk or something.

You're wrong. My comment was that it's great to hear about practice reports but not to get too excited about them. That was the point and then the idiot gooeuy brought up Ralph Sampson and started his crap.

I know that you're desperate to prove me wrong on anything. I don't care if he is a 4 time All American. Fall reports mean very little if anything.  I see you showing videos of a kid dunking against air.  Big deal. We will know what we have when the lights come on. I hope everyone one of our kids has spectacular years. If you want to get excited about fall reports good for you.

yeah, i just totally brought up ralph sampson out of nowhere, for no reason at all. 🙄

Thanks for making my point again. What you just quoted was my response to you about Jabari Rice. Then you brought up Sampson.

@realgreggym I can help clear up the confusion. You made the overly hyperbolic statement that you don’t care if somebody is a 4 time All American. @shadow_operative pointed out the absurdity of that statement with the Ralph Sampson example … because he was a 4 time All American. This isn’t rocket science. You went too far with your assertion. Of course you aren’t the only poster guilty of that.

No, you don't understand.  Let's say Vince Young came back for his senior year.  We would have no idea how he'd perform during that season, and certainly couldn't use any info from August 2-a-days to further that projection.  I mean, you just don't know.  Who could predict what a redshirt senior Vince Young might do?  It's a puzzler.

Bishop is so easy to root for as a person and a player. That's my guy.

Edited by pacman

Bishop was my favorite player on the team last year. I expect that will continue this year.

every player i've seen looks like he's in better shape than last season.

I'm expecting big things from Bishop, he improved by leaps and bounds during the season.  He became a better offensive player, and I hear everyone who thinks we don't have a rim protector, but he was pretty damn good final third of the season.  With a healthy Disu, I think we'll be fine there.  And don't forget Mitchell.

I want you to personally chase some fans up into the lounge areas because you're being too loud as a fan or I'll consider it a failure of a day. 

Thank you for the photo and video. They're much appreciated.

the team defense this year will be elite. we were up in arkansas' shit all day, constantly turning them over. arkansas eventually wilted under the pressure. this defense is for real.

They had 23 turnovers 

I know it is just practice but practicing beating the shit out of people has to be a good sign. Especially Piggie.

Marcus ... my man!

 

Incidentally, to those who attended the Arkansas scrimmage, how did Mr. Carr look compared to last year? Did he seem a step quicker or more explosive?

If your point is to not get ‘too excited’ about preseason, why the fuck are you posting here at all right now?

They had 23 turnovers 

They also had 6 freshmen and 5 new transfers. Only one returning player from the nine man rotation last year. Might want to temper expectations from this one performance.
