[QUOTE=rob lock’s shoe laces;23790]At work at home or on the street. Heck, even at the local Waffle House I keep getting myself in disscussions about BBN. I’m a die hard fan. Only I hated Billy Clyde from the get go. I couldn’t give him my support after about 10 games and I think that was fair.
The low post issue. The one w/o Kanter right now. Everyone wants to blame Josh or blame Eloy. Even blame the NCAA for the Kanter situation (which I do, I won’t lie. lol) Josh is what he is. He is a big, not real talented 6’10 C. He hustles his but off. Gives us some great moments with his outside touch, then we turn on him when he picks up a stupid foul, or switches too early on a ball screen. My point is on Josh, he’s an average guy don’t expect too much. Because if you do, you’ll be let down.
Eloy?? Well I don’t know what to say other than he was a 5*. Yeah, I’ll end it at that. and He sucks!
I think everything else is on target for this team to have a great season, even w/o Enes. Just let the season happen. I hope we get Enes back, we need him badly. But Josh is our man and I just hope he battles every sec of every minute he’s on the floor.
Don’t blame the big guys for the lack of low post play. The blame lies on 1 person and 1 person only. (((((((COACH CAL)))))) I aint hating on him, just putting it out there. He ushered Patterson to the NBA. Patterson should be here this year.
Then for all the Tubby haters. He’s got Minny looking pretty dang tough. Just saying. lol

First i was never a Tubby fan. Let’s face it he couldn’t get it done at the big school on the big stage. His title win should have a Pitino asterisk beside it. That is why he is at Minnesota , yeah Minnesota LOL.
Second, Patterson was gone to the NBA anyways Cal or no Cal. He graduated a junior and didn’t plan to stay for a senior year. If anything it was Cal’s influence that swayed Patterson to stay his junior year and not leave with Jodie Meeks. Now i do think Cousins needed to stay because it’s obvious he wasn’t mentally ready to be a pro, nor was Orton. We could use that size right now. Wall and Bledsoe have proved they were ready.
I’m not sure what Cal was thinking this season. He put all our size on the Enes situation and its hurting us some obviously. At least we got some seriously talented big men coming next year.
It’s true they expect more from Harrlleson then he is capable of but i like his fight and hustle even though about 5 times a game i catch myself yelling at him like c’mon. As for Eloy i don’t know what happened to him. His JUCO stats were very impressive so i don’t know what happened over the summer.
Overall i wouldn’t hate on Cal because if it wasn’t for him we wouldn’t be getting the #1 recruits every single year. Every time you get mad at Cal do what i do and think of Billy G and the 2008 season disaster. The only thing about that season i liked was “Rhythm & Bruise” of Meeks & Patterson.[/COLOR]
