Dennis Horner – 6’7″ 190 lbs I watched Horner play in the Bob Gibbons tournament this past weekend. It was the first time I have seen him play and I was impressed. He is listed as 6’7″ with good speed for his size. I did not measure him but his height seemed about right. He […]
What Would Warren Buffet Say About Sendek/State?
I am reading a book entitled “The Warren Buffett Wayâ€? by Robert G Hagstrom Jr. Warren Buffett is the greatest investor in the history of the stock market. I firmly believe to be the best, you learn from the best and so I am currently learning from the best investor ever. I have learned Buffett […]
What have Life Time Rights brought us?
I have been contemplating why we still have a coach few seem to want. I have decided the blame falls on Life Time Rights. What LTRs have done is remove the sole mouthpiece of the “common man”. If you do not buy the tickets you lose your ‘lifetime” rights and few, outside of the wealthy, […]
Sprouts of Ineptness
I have not added much to this blog for far too long. I have been trying to get into the supporting Sendek mode and so have been avoiding writing anything negative (you know what your mother told you about not being able to say anything nice).

Glaxo Tournament
I went to the Glaxo tournament to watch the signees and recruits. Here are some of my observations… Dan Werner Looks like an Evtimov clone. He has a great basketball body and decent athletic ability.

I have been reading how many people think our future is brighter because recruiting is the best it has ever been. I thought it would be a good idea to look at whether this is in fact true. I pulled all of my rankings from this site. They use a point system to combine top […]
Lee Fowler speaks again
I know this is a surprise but our intrepid AD held another interview. There are some interesting quotes that tell alot about our athletic department. Lee had this to say “Championships are important,” he said, “but I don’t think it’s a negative year if you don’t win the championship, if you’ve had a good year […]
Bsketball Fever has officially begun
For anyone that did not see the games last night, you missed some incredible basketball. The Zags beat Michgan St in a triple overtime thriller, Texas overcame Iowa and UConn defeated Arizona. All three games were enjoyable to watch but the best was the Gonzaga victory as Adam Morrison (43 points) hit clutch shot after […]
Basketball issues for the upcoming year
After the performance on Saturday I do not want to think about football right now, so I thought I would address some challenges that I believe the basketball team will face this year. (1) The loss of Julius Hodge – Besides being responsible for 23% of the points, 20% of the rebounds and most importantly […]
