  1. Depends how in-depth you want to go. There are 2 or 3 other guys in '11 that are being recruited, but don't yet have scholarship offers (Langford, Holton, Holmes maybe?) 2012 has Gary Harris, AJ Hammons, DeJuan Marrero and Steve Taylor as the main targets, but how realistic the first 2 are is up for debate.
  2. Wouldn't it screw him over more to pick up an actual good FA QB?
  3. Shaw's announcing Thursday at DeLasalle
  4. It would be a lot easier of a decison if theyd take someone like JJax, Carpenter, or Coleman instead of Archer, but thats pretty much the type of package that youd have to give up for a guy like Greinke unless its a salary dump or they were trying to rush him out of town, but neithers thst case. With such a package however, we should be able to get Alex Gordon as well if we were to throw in another smaller piece. How would it not be a salary dump? He's going from 7Mil to 13.5Mil. Nobody else on the team will make more than 4Mil. Oh and Alex Gordon has no value. He's a 3B turned OF, who hasn't shown he can hit well enough to be valuable at either position. His minor league numbers have not translated and next year will be his 5th year in the majors and he will now be at the age where he doesn't have a lot of time to figure it out (27). Absolutely agree on Alex Gordon, and I might also add in that he's a injury riddled guy who likes to talk out of his flaming a**. Every season, not to my surprise, there is always an Alex Gordon article about how he wants to improve and gonna dominate, only to translate a .210 batting average, 1 HR, 3 RBI's before landing on the DL with a phantom injury, and abiding his time in the minors throughout June to August, and be back in time in September call-ups, which coincidentally I might add, that scrubs/AAA/AA minor leaguers players get called up, and his numbers looks a little "better" somehow. Alex Gordon is trash, to sum it up. Sounds like Gordon has it all figured out.
  5. By all accounts, he wants to go to KU, but his mom and hangers-on want him at MU. Never hurts to have mom on your side, but it doesn't guarantee anything (Beal's family wanted Beal at KU.) I think KU will snag him. At least I hope. We need him bad. How do you need him badly? You just got the number one player in America last year and have pretty good depth in the backcourt. Gotta Self-proof the team
  6. It's just their way of saying 20 conference/3 non-conference
  7. Does that mean 20 in-conference games? I barely recall him doing any.
  8. But the BCS rankings were released last week. I'm saying they had Oregon listed as number 1 for it's game on Thursday. And then had Oklahoma listed as number 1 on Saturday. I'm fairly sure Oregon was listed as #2 on Thursday Well, I didn't take a screenshot, so I can't prove it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdZnT8FmWxU

  10. We have: UNC Mizzou in St. Louis Texas in NY Pitt/Maryland in NY Gonzaga in Seattle
  11. Did NC find a point guard yet? Right after they find a frontcourt
  12. well said, lebron's PR Firm. Well said Fixed PR firms don't talk so unintelligently.
  13. Not as gerrymandered as the Big 10, but Utah/Colorado swapping with Stanford/Cal seems obvious.
  14. He knows about the aura and mystique and what it means to be a true Yankee
  15. Yep, every time you hear about some manager (besides Manny Acta) being obsessed with numbers it's dumbass [expletive] like that.
  16. Ok, Lebron has the 2nd worst self-awareness on the planet
  17. When did the Lebron hype first start? He may have the perspective of a Michael Jackson where he never had a childhood, and thus never really grew out of it. Probably less molesty though.
  18. Isn't pretty much the entire team besides Turco younger than you?
  19. Yeah, the continued "I want bad things to happen to Ryno" is a little strange. It's not like he's Mark Grace.
  20. I'd choose to be a long snapper. Rarely is the long snapper in a pressure situation where the game rests mostly on him, like the kicker. Being a punter would be pretty sweet too, though. I think Trey Junkin is still crying.
  21. Otherwise he'll have to go to West Virginia? Love it.
  22. That's exactly the kind of mewling, obsessive [expletive] that I'm sure gives Ryno a gigantic, balding boner. If he's actually going to burn bridges over this and think that he was "owed" this job right now, then [expletive] him. Couldn't agree more You think Sandberg wants to ride a bus all day? He has better things to do. If Hendry wanted him to manage in the minors first to get experience, then he better be serious about giving him a shot at the majors when Sandberg does what he's asked. He said he'd consider him for the job if he went to the minors. Sandberg went to the minors, and was considered.
