Can confirm it was Dunnhill apartments. Drove by it yesterday and let me tell you, it doesn't look ready for August at all.

Liable to just open 1 building at a time and have rolling move-in. However, a lot can be accomplished in 3 months of decent weather.

John beilein is what you call a great coach not bill self. Self has top 5 talent every year and is always a 1 or 2 seed. Most of the time it's in front of a very pro Kansas location. His tourney success is not that impressive. He has has a top speed almost every year. Beileins highest ranked player is # 65.

I love the fact that Darius Bazley was one of the more impressive players, because when he went head-to-head with Jerome Hunter this season, Jerome kinda lit him up and shut him down.

What you do about it, and how many hundreds of thousands of dollars you pay it!

Here, read this (thanks to the poster in the College Basketball thread): http://www.oregonlive.com/business/index.ssf/page/the_loyalty_game.html

Here’s a fun quote:

“Under Armour confirmed this week that it sponsored two club teams run by the parents of star players. The company backs a team led by Apples Jones, whose son Josh Jackson was selected by the Phoenix Suns in the first round of the 2017 NBA draft. Documents obtained during the corruption probe and reported by Yahoo Sports include emails that describe monthly $10,000 payments from the Baltimore-based company to Jones.

"Under Armour is giving her 10k a month, and she's also getting paid by adidas now — so she's plenty taken care of," Dawkins wrote of Jones.

The cryptic email doesn't address why Adidas would pay into a program sponsored by a competing shoe company. But in Jackson's only year of college basketball, he played for the University of Kansas, which is sponsored by Adidas.”

Now kids, what does 2+2 equal?

Do a lot of people know about this?

A lot of people know Darrell Arthur played on a national championship team but didn't graduate from high school. The people who could actually do something about it don't give a rip.

[AKHoosier]

So apparently Immanuel Quickly, who is Romeo's good friend and going to Kansas, guessed Romeo will go to Vanderbilt.  He admitted he's just guessing though.

Quickly is going to Kentucky

Where did he play? Say it wasn't Kansas, surely it wasn't Kansas.

The ncaa could care less. In fact they probably aren't very happy the fbi found out what they have. Kansas is untouchable to the ncaa

So I was listing to ESPN on my way home. I normally listen to Fox sports because ESPN local in my area has UK hillbillies on the air strutting their stuff.  Anyway, UK ESPN local radio host was saying the one of the best players left in 2018 class, I think he was talking about Montgomery, was going to visit UK, Duke, Carolina and when asked about which coach he had the best relationship with so far, the young man said it was coach Drew at Vanderbilt.

So for the first time ever I was agreeing with this arrogant UK lover that it seems odd for another 5 star recruit is bonding better with the coach of Vandy then he is with all those big name schools who are lining up for him. 

I have been liking the way things have been sounding lately with Romeo, but this type of stuff is the reason I worry about Vanderbilt  more than a winning Kansas thousands of miles away.

 

[Bailey7878]

There is an article in the Courier Journal that mentions Vandy is trying to get Romeo down for another visit. So far, nothing is planned.
Also, don’t expect any positive news for IU this week. Garland will be putting out a lot of pro Vandy spin as you might expect.

And leaking it. He is a leaker.

Duke and UNC are much better universities academically than IU while sporting elite basketball programs. You can do both. It can be done and is being done.

If we are talking UNC, I don't know if fake classes really count as 'doing it both'.

Still my pick despite all the good vibes.

I SO hope to be wrong. As much as it doesn't make sense, it does.

You have Quickly confused with Grimes I think. Grimes is the one going to Kansas.

I got a chuckle out of the “grueling schedule” comment when he was talking about Williamson. I went to a good amount of high school games when I lived in SC and it is God awful basketball. I saw teams lose because they, and the coach, had no idea how to break a press. They’d inbound to the corner, get trapped, and try to throw the ball across the court. Steal, layup, repeat. Williamson spent his senior year playing physically inferior kids that get coached at about a third grade level.

RoMeO just drained his first half court shot in a McDonalds skills team thing on  ESPN2. #tooeasy   Then Jay Williams talked about how his girlfriend is from Indiana (or goes there?)  and talked about how great it would be for him to stay home. I’m not a Jay Williams fan but have to agree with him on that one.
