Keeping Up With Old Friends Thread

watched Dayton game last night and saw Posh. Shame that he has slipped so far. He should have welcomed Rick and he would have been in better shape and a better player than he is currently demonstrating.

I loved what Kelvin Sampson said about former players living in Houston and working out in their gyms throughout the summer & mingling with the guys. Obviously can't force people to live in NYC, but would be great if administration/staff is intentional about keeping this alumni involvement up throughout they ear.

Back in the day, when then Alumni Hall was available, it was not uncommon for current and former players along with players from the area who played at other schools (including a rival or two) to play pick up ball in the summer.

He doesn’t start and while he plays, getting 20 minutes or more doesn’t happen consistently. He actually looks in worst shape than he did when he was here.

Posh, Storr & Omar Stanley are all having disappointing years compared to last year.

Shooting 39% from the field, 32% from 3, a negative +/- on the year, averaging less than a FT attempt per game, and was 6-25 a few games ago.

I guess they are ok letting him take 20+ shots a game.

We get it. You hate DJ. Let it go

Smith is better and is more dedicated.

My six month reminder to give this guy a job at SJU upon his pro retirement.

We are likewise just as proud to have Harrison as an alum.

Turned on the Spurs game last night to watch Champ play and he immediately got ejected. Not 100% sure that he should have been ejected (NBA is so soft nowadays)

Kansas loses again last night to Houston, so no real surprise there. But they are in double digit losses this season with their super expensive free agent roster. If they lose in the first round of their conference tournament the NCAA would have a hard time justifying having them selected especially if there will be some upsets in the conference championships.
AJ Storr may be the biggest NIl bust there is this season. I try not to think how well he could have developed under CRP.

Storr would not have survived under this coaching staff

Matt was sorely disappointed when this guy reversed course on him, never thought of him as a star in college.

Always amazed so many non star college guys make $ overseas
