If you need to win 1 game ..

Hahah I couldn’t help but think of this scene from Black Sheep.
You can skip to 1:50 if for some reason you don’t want to laugh for 2 1/2 minutes.

RIP. We could use him. A big man who knew his role.

Anthony Glover was a 5* recruit rated higher than anyone we have now,

False. Heron was RCSI #18, Glover was 23.


#18 Heron
#23 Glover
#28 Ingram
#30 Simon
#36 Ponds
#52 Diakete
#63 Cuffe

and I think he lived up to that billing in college all things considered. He redshirted on an Elite 8 team and started on a Big East championship team as a freshman.

I'm not going to say anything bad about Glover but he was a 6'6" center playing against e.g. Emeka Okafor.

Elijah Ingram was a McDonald's All-American who averaged double digits on a tournament team. Cuffe, Shaw, and Diakate were all top 75 recruits. While it's safe to say Diakate didn't live up to his #52 ranking, I think Shaw and Cuffe did.

Yeah, you don't believe that, you're saying that because it plays into your I-loved-Ponds-more-than-anybody-first inner dialogue. Diakete was a joke. Kyle Cuffe e.g. was one of the softest players SJ ever had and if there had been a JJ back then you've had spent more time trashing him than you did trashing Dom Pointer, whose scholarship was the worst SJ's ever wasted. Unranked Willie Shaw averaged 6 points a game and shot 25 percent from three on the NCAA team before his career impoded. Ingram had a respectable career but nowhere near what you'd expect from a top 30 recruit: Allan Ray, Brandon Roy, Jarett Jack, Gerry McNamarra, Randy Foye, Deron Williams, and Taquan Dean were all ranked lower and all had markedly better careers.

Are you sure about that?

"I am known as the president of the Ponds fan club, but I don't like the way he looks this season."

"He needs to show A LOT more."

"I'd like to announce my new favorite player is Heron and Figureroa is coming up quickly behind"

C'mon Carmine you don't believe that thread was 100% serious do you? I wanted to setup up a few of the forum contrarians by forcing myself to find the smallest flaws in his game. I caught WASJU who even complimented Ponds' shooting! WASJU has a career 99.5% record of opposing Marillac posts.

Nobody puts my Ponds in the corner--unless it's to hit a game-wining three.

Ponds over anyone, ever. The only guard that can trump him in some situations is Erick Barkley.

Good work.  Very deceptive.  You fooled me.

I don't have a most favorite player yet on this year's team.  I'm waiting for you guys to choose one for me.

For the love of god Eddie Mush, pick one of the walk-ons, you have shit taste in basketball players. Jay Camus, think of all the stupid nick names you could think up, it's a no brainer.
