MBB: Great South Athletic Conference

[colincondi]

For obvious reasons, I'm not going to mention a name... but I'd love to know, younglion, how one of those recruits you mentioned was admitted?  I happen to know his grades/test scores.  Just what are the admission standards at Piedmont?  I don't ask this venomously, but I am curious. 

That is an outstanding class... a couple of those kids can play.  Piedmont's biggest problem may be not having enough minutes to go around to keep everyone happy, but that is a good problem to have.

Anybody have updates on the other schools recruiting classes?

[mattgrubb]

sorry to see him go, he was a class act, he was the only coach to beat Lambert in the gsac in 2 different seasons, good luck finding a replacement, where is Latrae Hampton, hey i will move to nashville from Miami, the grubby one knows the GSAC and i am trying to educate all of you about it

Bobby Golden has a new name, it is "SLIM" so please refer to him as that from now on

Those nine losses seem possible.  Partly evidence of a schedule with some good teams and partly possible because there are a lot of holes for the Scots to fill.  Did Brewer leave the team along with JJ?   King going DII seems nuts to me.  What are they trying to prove and accomplish?

I hope Dr. Glover's resignation provides an opportunity for Fisk and the GSAC to develop a plan that will keep Fisk in the league.  I'd hope that a new AD would want some commitments about financial resources and, if that is the core issue, will get what it will take.

Bout how slim is Slim?

[mattgrubb]

First of all Bobby looks phenomenal
Second, maybe that will get the committment that fisk needs to remain a part of the gsac
Brewer did leave, JJ did not leave, he just can't play, but he wants to
Also, those losses are possible not definite, but let's plan for the worst and be suprised by the scots, we are not UT football fans
King is going D2 on their way to D1, i guess they are trying to overcompensate for being small, you know like Lil RB

[younglion]

colincondi, I know the kid you are inquiring about and I will not mention his name for his sake.  But the kid actually has a very good gpa.  He did not do very well on his SAT but his GPA was so high that Piedmont took that into consideration.  He was admitted to Piedmont on a probational status and will have to take some classes before school starts.

And Piedmont's academic standards are basically the same as everyone else in the conference.  He was also admitted into Huntingdon along with a plethora of other D3 schools.

mattgrubb, why do you feel the need to look at the glass as half empty everytime you are unable to find something to discuss, so you resort back to how poorly you think the Scots will do next year.  Maybe I am playing right into your plan, do you feel the need for a "quick fix" so that you can brag on yourself about how successful your teams were in the past.  Take that stuff to brentwatts.com so that you can compare stats and you can feel good about your self and help your self-esteem.  Or just have your boyfriend take you out for a sausage biscuit.

Hey Lil Rib and Grubb- why don't you guys just hug and tell stories about how great it was to be at MC and hang out at the old Lloyd hall and of course Pearsons Hall. Those were the days, I can still remember all of the people packed in Lloyd after the Scots football team upset E&H in 1997. IMHO Maryville B- ball seems to lack the intensity and desire that it takes to remain on top year in to year out. To me it feels like they are now content to live on the reputation the the Maryville teams of the past built. Bring back the intensity of House, Watts, Dee, Leroy, Ennen, Winton, Placeres, Bird, Wright, and last but not least Beatty.

[mattgrubb]

Lil Rib has just been in the mountains too long and is obviously bitter at the Grubby one for being a wealth of knowledge and teaching him a thing or two
I currently don't have a boyfriend but i am in the market, are you soliciting yourself Lil RB?
I have always been a glass half empty kind of guy, except for once, i took a glass half full approach to a friend one time and that was a mistake, a short fat blonde guy at MC, j/k

Just to let you know i think bobby and i will go out for that sausage biscuit

where has the killer been?

[GSAC Killer]

I'm gone for a couple of days and Lil RB and The Grubby one are going at it... I LOVE IT!!
By the way I really hope Bobby is in shape.. If he only knew where his game would take him if he were in shape.. Gentlemen of the roundtable the Scots will once again win 20 games have 2 guys on the All Conference 1st Team and lose in the 1st or 2nd round of the NCAA Tournament... The conference is too weak besides one team..... Surprise of the year!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Lagrange Panthers.... They have a good core coming back and with some key additions from the MIA -305 the kids from Georgia will be a force to be reckoned with!!!!
    By the way JJ is not going to play next year.. So that leaves me with this question who is going to play the 2 & 3 positions this year?
 

[mattgrubb]

Killer,
that is the question for the scots, no wing game returning, great posts, but what about the perimeter, sure they got Bo, but there are three positions there, what about Orr at the 3? any thoughts?

[old_lion]

with some key additions from the MIA -305  

Huh? Can I get a little clarification on that comment?

[GSAC Killer]

Grubby you know me and what type of game I like to play.. Up and down on offense pick up full for 40 min but I am not the coach of the Fighting Scots.. Coach Lamber likes to play solid man to man and run Motion FOREVER and A DaY!! But hey he has been successful so that is what he does... I like Orr a lot especially on the wing attacking the basket.. I would give him isolations against bigger defenders and I would put him on top of my presses...
  I still believe they need to move Bo over.. Bo pounds it too much for me.. He is a great shooter so put him in a spot will he will be more beneficial "SHOOTING GUARD"... He is a great off the ball defender.. He reads passes well he just can't guard a SOUL one on one...
   Old Lion two or maybe 3 guys will be going to Miami from my Hometown... And let me tell you all 3 could start at Da Ville right now!!!

[mattgrubb]

killer i will be in the MIA next friday and i need my phone number (matt grubb), i love bo at the 2, when he gets hot it is over, he can hit anything, but he is better at the point than anything else they have

[GSAC Killer]

Try Jeff McCord.. He has the "OG" number.. I didnt chill much with him... By the way when he is hot he is nice.... Hopefully they will give Sauceman a chance!!
