Maybe as neighbors they have had to RECRUIT tree care companies. Talk about stuff like cultivating growth and fertilization in young trees! Never know when the conversation changes direction!They're neighbors

Played for an excellent coach last year so he has some idea about rigorous practices.
He's going to miss all the perks of being a Stanford athlete though.
True. He just blew his chance of getting on the board of Theranos.

Well he did push ticket sales. Maybe he had to buy the leftovers to ensure it was a sell out

Well, I was thinking more along the lines of the round-the-clock medical clinic devoted solely to athletes, including mental health services, and the round-the-clock fueling stations for the athletes.
Plus she was a dropout and has been disavowed
Why...thank you!!!
...and that's a true story. Also, as we walked off the court, the first person to congratulate us was J-Zee whose brother was playing for SJU at the time.Noted that one of the things Rick loves about Sellers is "he has great size". Assuming we sign Ian that will give us 10 players including the 6 returnees all of whom were at least semi rotation players toward the end of the year and all of whom I believe Rick wants back. I'd say sign Lee or the frosh PG and a strong guy who can play the 4 or 5, rebound and defend with any scoring a plus. Beyond 12 guys who you think might play, it can get counterproductive imho. I can see lots of times when CRP would be comfortable playing 3 or 4 of Sellers, Sanon, Jackson, Sim & whoever we sign to play point. Do believe we need the extra strong forward to match up against bigger teams and also as insurance as Bryce is coming off a significant injury and hasn't played a whole lot since.
Just my two cents. I also agree with those not ready to write off Sim. It's clear that Rick has faith in him and undoubtedly wants him to play some at both 1 and 2. Don't discount the value of two years in the system. If it was all determined by how many stars or highest ranked portal signings the pundits would have been closer to right when they picked Kansas #1 preseason; fit matters a lot.

He had me at “I want to win a National Championship”.Money quotes from Rubin as well:
St. John's lands Stanford's Oziyah Sellers from transfer portal
The guard made 40% of his three-point attempts for the Cardinal.www.newsday.com
“In any conversation, coach Pitino is pretty much the greatest coach of all-time – I wanted to play for him,” Sellers told Newsday in a phone interview. “I want to go out the way I want to go out: I want to win a national championship.”
“Playing for him was a big part of this [decision],” he added. “And then hearing his plan for me? I knew this was something I wanted to be a part of.”
I think I might die if that happens. This was unthinkable just two years ago.
I'm not getting any younger so we better got it done soon!!!
Love the quotes about working hard. Similar to what Sanon said after he committed. If these two great shooters give the effort on defense and also share the ball more than they did last year, we will be really good.
You sound like Leon Hess when he fired Pete Carroll and hired Rich Kotite.I'm not getting any younger so we better got it done soon!!!
This will end better than that (it can’t end any worse).
Welcome aboard Oziyah.
Hey when there’s a deez and dose guy available you fire college and NFL HOF coach Pete Carroll and grab Rich Kotite.

Welcome aboard great addition! Our shooting is going to be a strength instead of a weakness next year.
Great pickup. Welcome Sellers. Lots of top level positional size on this team with most of the guards coming in around 6'5 assuming Jackson joins too. Can matchup with any backcourt nationally in this area.
Let's get a floor general to run the show and put pressure on opposing defenses. Sim is better without being the main ball handler. He can absolutely do it but he's never looked fully comfortable in that role. Let him cut, slash, and finish. As well as step back and stroke from deep.

I've always appreciated Kotite for being so bad that it forced them to do whatever it took to get Parcells.
