Like Riggins says above with New England and now Virginia winning we should count our blessings. And they are similar. Brainy and whereas the Patriots win with non caste WRs, Virginia wins with an all white back court. What a ride. Virginia was involved in three of the most exciting games in a...

Thanks Jack for the playoff previews. Well done as always. Just a side note. Saturday was a good sports day overall until they showed Connor McDavid smash into the goal in their final game of the season. Everyone including Connor ( my favorite NHL player) thought he suffered a broken leg and or...

WR Jay Brunelle made some noise at a recent New Jersey camp. As mentioned above, Brunelle has the size (6'0" 200) and hops (38 plus vertical) and speed (4.56) to get a call from the big boys.

UCONN has hauled in another dazzling 2020 recruit. First was 5'11" Paige Bueckers the number one player in that class. Bueckers is ultra talented. Now Geno went all the way over to Croatia to land PG Nika Muhl. Nika is a very flashy player. Only regret is will have to wait two seasons before...

Below is a Rex Chapman like wonder dunk from Mario Hezonja last night. Whoa!!! https://www.nba.com/knicks/video/teams/knicks/2019/04/07/mario-hezonja-dunk-highlight-knicks-wizards

Ha I have seen that before where all the family members look like one another. Big things were predicted for Kari as she headed to UCLA but she never became a star. Was noted for her three point shooting though just like Uncle Kyle. So instead of the Korver clan it is more like the Korver clones.

When ever I predict good things for players like Trout the opposite occurs and the player usually dovetails into a long slump! Maybe Carolina is a good luck charm. Mike clobbered 5 home runs in their opening home stand against Texas. I figured I had plenty of time to dump my garbage on...

Really nice stats from Hezonja. More on him in a minute. Last night I watched the entire Lakers game because Alex Caruso started and played big minutes. He is listed as 6'5" but doesn't seem long ,hence he seems shorter than that. I remember putting him on my Rex Chapman list when he was a high...

When a white star suffers a devastating injury like the one Lauren Cox suffered in the Baylor- Notre Dame final, the air is let out of the balloon for me. After that injury I lost complete focus of the game which Baylor won by one point. I was long past caring at that point. Bad enough she has...

What worries me about the three players above is unlike the 1980's I don't think nurturing young white players who have talent but need seasoning is much in the cards these days. I had referenced this earlier with Jake Layman of Portland who is being moved along at a snail's pace. But back in...

That weird camera set up they insert from time to time makes me dizzy. It is like that damn sky cam they were using at football games. So half dizzy I can't help thinking Virginia keeps putting themselves in precarious situations that should be avoided. To me they are better than Purdue and...

Nice to hear the big schools want WR Mangum. Very important. Nowell too. Rocky noted above 5-9 180 athlete Keegan Wilburn who recently blew up at a recent big Ohio camp. Ran a 4.51 4o, had a 39 1/2 vertical and a very quick 3.96 20 yard shuttle. Explosive player. Will power 5 schools come...

I only caught the last quarter of the Baylor-Oregon tilt but it was tight. Baylor prevailed and it seems to me 6'4" Lauren Cox has suddenly emerged as the best player in the country. But the Notre Dame UCONN battle was another classic between these two titans in what is the best rivalry in...

Want to comment on the three posts above. In a season that has had its ups and downs it was really nice to see three "fringe" shooting guards have career games. Not lost on me at least is the irony of Rex Chapman commenting on these players on the NBA channel. In the March Madness thread I...

Bucky predicted a Michigan State-Virginia final and early on Jack Lambert predicted Virginia to win the whole thing. I admit it I will be shocked if Auburn beats Virginia. I also don't think Texas Tech can win it all. They might have one more upset left in them but I would bet on Michigan State...

Clarification on Joey Alfieri's 40 yard dash. It has officially been posted at an even better 4.49!! A bit like Cole Holcomb this is an ultra athletic productive linebacker that is being ignored for the most part. Breaking news!! Dear NFL teams and scouts and GMs and head coaches and all other...

The early to mid 70's college basketball scene mostly eludes me. Just a young kid then but I did follow the NBA. For me my awareness of college basketball started in 1978 when Rick Robey and Kyle Macy led KY to a championship over Duke and big Mike Gminski. I remember rooting for KY and watching...

Ho hum another white athletic linebacker stud emerges into view. Leonardfan last night discussed Stanford LB Joey Alfieri in the Combine thread where he ran a swift 4.53 at his pro day. Alfieri is a solid 235 at 6'2" plus and I remember many flash plays by him in college. Where or if he lands...

You are really pulling them out of your hat Booth. But I like challenges. I have heard of Kevin Joyce but can't recall watching him play although he was on the famous 1972 Olympic Squad that lost to the Russians. Dave Collins was a prominent member of that team. In the back of my mind I thought...

Matt Miller, one of the more recognizable draft guru names, just put out his top 56 or so WR list with full details on each player. The caste slant is discernable but what is hard to figure out is how he ranks them. Because if you read his pros and cons on each player and you didn't see the...

Right his stats went way up his senior year. You got me on him Booth. I simply don't remember him. I remember those NC teams and of course the Ralph Sampson teams but drawing a complete blank on Jarmin. I don't recollect watching Clemson basketball games back then either. But he sounds like a...

Never heard of Jarmin who by his stats looked like a minor role/ bench player from the early 80's. Dave Popson was a highly ranked PF prospect from the 1980's who never exploded at North Carolina. I had high hopes for him due to his bouncy hops but he only had an average career at NC. Same...

I think you solved the case. While whizzing around the internet I noticed a Draft Digest too but that doesn't seem like the one I was thinking about. I'm certain it was the one put out by Pro Football Weekly and was called Draft Preview. Joel Buchsbaum (wonder what his ethnicity is ha) name...

Tranquill is an interesting prospect. At worst he becomes a special teams warrior but as a "reformed" safety he has the speed to cover receivers and is generally one of those great instinct players who is always around the ball. Could turn out to be a real good pro. I have a couple of white LBs...

Bryce Harper went 3-5 with a HR in his return to DC last night. But bad news in that game. Speedster Trea Turner, one of the most important caste busters in all of sports, broke his index finger while trying to bunt. The only positive is at least it wasn't a leg injury but he will be out for a...
