Anyone know what happened to him? I hope he's all right.
 
I was wondering the same thing. He is probably just taking a break. Sometimes there is just nothing else to say or to add...

Paul Massell's avatar sums it up best.

I love the program as much as as the next guy but life goes on. Pitchers & Catchers only a few weeks away :)
 
If your concern is genuime great and I hope it is.
I am sure he is more disapointed than most being the great fan and supporter of the program that he is.
He is just taking a break as many of us have done for a multitude of reasons over time.
Hopefully he will be back soon as his contributions are greatly missed.
 
He responded to another poster,I think 72,the other day. IMO between the negativity of the board and our poor play he is just taking a break like Redmannorth said.

I think all the negative posts would drive him crazy :)
 
I think he prefers to post when his rosy optimism is the majority opinion so he can take shots at those who dare to disagree. Short of our turning the ship around, I suspect we won't be hearing much from him.
 
Thanks for all the well wishes and concern. It's appreciated! The trolling Harvey brought me out of lurking. You finally did some good. Thanks!

I'm good, gang! I, converse to posters on and offline. I was just clowning with a poster on the phone about the season. I was clowning with another poster last night, as he wasn't even aware we had a game. Other than the losses, it's all good.

The losses in itself doesn't particularly bother me (of course, I wanna win). But an underlying factor or two does, IMO. Those factors are very, easily correctable. Will they be corrected is the question.....

Once again, appreciate the concern.

I concur. I particularly like it when he threatens to cause me bodily harm. Still glad I didn't take him up on his offer to meet him at his seat in Charleston last year. Dude scares me.

Good to see you back. What are some of the underlying factors you are referring to?

Lineups/substitution patterns and pressing/pressure defense for more than 10% each outing.

For unstance, I loved the move to Gift last night. Gift served the purpose, as he played well. But where was Branch? He was slicing and dicing up DePaul by creating easy opportunities for his teammates, and for himself. Then, he vanished to the bench.

There also doesn't seem like we have defined roles outside of Harrison and Jordan. It should be those two out of the gate, followed by Sampson, Sanchez, Branch, and Obekpa. Then, you add Pointer, Greene, Gift, and Hooper in there based on what is occuring that particular game. If one or two of the latter four is having a good game or hot hand, then you leave them in the game. Find a base rotation.

I also believe this team tightens up during the latter stages of games because they subconsciously do not feel they can win. Other than the "Debacle in DC;" we've had the chance to win every,game during the very, latter stages.

I believe it's a confidence factor or lack of, in this case.

Dear Boo,

If you have nothing of value to add to this board, and only come out of hibernation to stir up crap, I strongly suggest you go back into hibernation or change your ways.
Baiting on this site is not permitted.
I trust that I am clear on this point.
Thank you.
