No, that's the Florida, Guns, Cooking Oil, Mormons thread. Some of your off-topic posts went there to live.
This one is for the tangent into Brady Dunlap and somehow David Cain.
I am not responsible for the "Chicken" in the thread title, somebody else put that there.
That was me
I understand they finally opened a Raising Canes Chicken in NYWasn't Dunlap also playing hurt?

Mine closed its in-person dining because too many people were being robbed at gunpoint in the parking lot.That was me
I figure getting food from one of the Long Island locations in 2025 will be less hazardous to my health.
He was a walking, dribbling turnover his first two and a half years here. Nobody trusted him. We would cringe every time heād get in a game. Guys were calling him David Turnover. Midway during his junior year, that started to change for the better. Even with that, no one saw his senior year coming.

This is a good reminder for me to give Wilcher some time before I jump all over him for every turnover.
Cainās freshman year , Boo Harvey returned to play the point after sitting out for academics the year before. Buchanan had a real good season Cainās sophomore year (Buchananās first and third years were his best). I have no idea what happened Buchananās senior year but Cain didnāt show much until midway that year.
There is one on 125th St. Another one will be opening up this spring in Penn Station. A few more are coming to Long Island.That was me
My daughter, a native Texan who moved to NY a few years ago, was surprised the Southern chain expanded up North.

Was hoping for Riverhead, but it looks like I'll have to brave the mean streets of Carle Place.
Crazy.
Iāve seen this story a thousand times in my life. You got the entire staff and roster screaming at you to shoot anything you can but donāt have the teammates/offense to get you consistent open looks.
With every miss the pressure increases, Itās a disaster for young players. With every miss you look at the bench to see if you are getting subbed out.
You couldn't just leave it at my tactful "not the most responsible decision maker in the court?"
That was Tarik Turnover.You couldn't just leave it at my tactful "not the most responsible decision maker in the court?"
Btw: we all love Tarik. But if Coach Lou took Kareem Reidā¦ā¦..
You mean Mahoney, Lou already retired.
You see now, if you had brought Tarik into the discussion by way of comparison for "who's shot had less arc, his or Dunlap," that would have been reasonable.
Tarik was not perfect as a player, but I thought he did a very capable job (not to mention being a good person and fine representative of SJU from then up through the present day). I probably liked him better overall as a player than Zendon. But really the problem was that Felipe was not Michael Jordan which was (sadly) the expectation for him.
LOL see the Mod forum - great minds...
ON PAPER, I would argue that Brian Mahoney brought in the highest-rated talent of any head coach in STJ history in such a short amount of time:
Ty Grant: underrated warrior.
Felipe: No. 1 high school recruit 1994
Zendon: Top 5 1994
Tarik Turner: Top 50
James Scott: No. 1 Juco player 1993.
Roshown McLeod: Top 50 1993
Lavor Postell: Top 50 1995
Charles Minlend: Top 50 1992
Rowan Barrett: No. 1 player in Canada 1992.
Mo Brown: NYC POY.
If only he had gotten an elite PG of that era like Ed Cota.....

Ed Cota was fun to watch. Cool story, watched a documentary on him years ago.
