ParticipantI guess it is all fine and good but we know Gott will run Yurt, Smith, and Abu off after next year. This is really kind of bad news is it not. What if the Pack is good next year? That might mean Gott will have more breathing room and not be as easy to gott rid of.

KeymasterYurt and Smith are considered one and done players so yeah they will be gone next year. I HOPE that means we had a great year.

ParticipantRemember when we had such a great year when JJ Hickson was a one and done…

I did say “hope” because you are right it is not a guarantee.

ParticipantI appreciate acquiring Yurt but I also want Gibson Johnson. Greed is good.

ParticipantNah, I’m with you. This time we have two, in theory, and better coaching.
I was more marveling at how little difference a 1aD can make in the wrong hands.

Isn’t that the truth. Lowe could have screwed up a two car parade.

ParticipantGood verbal! Let’s get him signed and through the Clearing House. We’ll not really know who we have on the roster until the basketballs roll out this fall.
It’s signed and delivered. Clearing House still to go.

ParticipantBig props to Gott for the pick up.

This is the problem with some “fans.” Some would rather see State lose to fit their agenda than see them succeed and miss their agenda.

So this is the part when we measure someone’s “fanhood” by how much they agree with your opinion…
I guess you never hoped we would lose out with Lowe so we could get rid of that weight around our neck. If not I guarantee you are in the minority as anyone with a brain knew he was never going to win anything.

ParticipantI want to see us kill it this year. If we get Yurt cleared it looks like a one year window to make some real noise. It could be the type of thing that spring boards the program.
I want to see some Amoeba zone defense and a return to a recognizable offense. Do those two things, push the tempo, fill out the roster, get Yurt cleared and it’s Elite 8 or bust.
05/16/2016 at 4:21 PM #103480JeremyH
ParticipantIf he’s cleared this makes us for losing Bam.

ParticipantOoops sorry my bad. I thought the statement was so outrageous and over the top that it would be taken as it was intended to be sarcasm.

Why the hell would I want to see MY school, MY teams, lose? Jesushchristinasidecar.

Participant+1
I get the logic, but, if I was a slave to logic I wouldn’t be a State fan.

Dude, if you are pulling against a team, that pretty much means you are not a fan. Think about it.

ParticipantClearly sarcasm is a tough sell around here theses days 🙂 I have to admit I didn’t catch it.
05/16/2016 at 6:47 PM #103489BJD95
KeymasterI will admit that I didn’t really give a flying f-ck (and could see the silver lining in a loss) at the end of the Lowe and Amato eras. But those were uber extreme examples, when things were absolutely in flames (on and off the field/court).
MG has nowhere near approached that level of contempt earning.

.Seeing a Silver Lining after a loss is a far cry from “Hoping for a loss.”
I have no respect for those pulling for a loss. NONE.
…But that should be evident…And yeah. It does reflect on your fanship, self-aware, or not.

yet…….
He under performs this year and the stuff really might hit the fanThats always the double edge sword of having a loaded team, the expectations get a little crazy. See year 2.

ParticipantJeremy – this guy is much more skilled than Bam and should be a better college player.
In terms of talent acquisition – again with that caveat of him being eligible – this gives all those necessary all of the necessary information to make a decision. If he can put together a great season – read the following:
1) top 4 ACC regular season finish
2) ACC tournament title
3) elite 8 or betterIf he can do one of those 3 – there is no way in the world to justify firing him for on the court results after next year.

Finishing in the top 4 ACC is the absolute baseline for next year. No excuses at this point.
05/16/2016 at 10:21 PM #103499JeremyH
ParticipantWon’t breathe easy until the Clearinghouse business is done and Abu says “just kidding”. If that happens, we’ll have the scoring frontcourt depth we haven’t had since circa 2010 when we had Tracy Smith, Howell, Painter. top 4 ACC finish? fine, but it won’t look like that in the beginning.

Correct. I have never hoped for State to lose any game. If you have, you aren’t much of a fan. Sorry if the truth hurts.
