“We’d love to condition more, but our guys are so tired from exams, that we have to be careful of that. Once we get through exams, we can condition more, but we can’t run them to the point that they can’t study at night.”

On a side note, do you think there’s another division-I basketball coach in America, outside of a few select places, that’s worried about leaving his players enough energy to do well on exams? Forget the major conferences even, I’d love to see Shaka Smart or Jim Larranaga in the CAA lying awake at night wondering about that. Yeah, right. Just another of the impressive aspects of the Tribe’s start to the season.

These guys are pretty impressed with themselves, don't you think? Well, I do hope they get all rested up. They're going to need it when they visit the Siegel Center, or if they meet us in the tournament.

They have done a great job and deserve all the attention they're getting. I say good luck until our next meeting.

I'm also impressed that they are using a win over us as a recruiting/marketing tool. A win over VCU means alot more than we may realize. Me thinks that speaks volumes!
 
The guy that wrote this must be an arrogant a$$, even if he is starved for hoops success.

I am sure Shaka, who had offers to Ivy League schools and has an advanced degree from a highly regarded (if little known) liberal arts school and Will Wade , who came to us from Harvard, care nothing about the academics of the players. :roll: He's basically saying no one else cares about the players off the court but Shaver :roll: :roll: :roll: I don't buy that for a second. There are plenty of good guys out there coaching that want the players to do well in all aspects of their lives, including academics. I think our coach is one of them.

I hope we kick the living crap out of them at the Stu. They are not nearly as talented as our team - - it's not even close with Saintil and Skeen back. We should beat them at home, convincingly.
 
Well, rest assured that they will hit a stretch, playing 2-3 games every week when the 3s aren't falling and their hocus pocus offense is not confounding teams as much. Not to mention running up against 6-11, 6-9 and 6-8 athletic, interior guys like ours. Then they will look like they should...better than they have been, but not as good as they think they are.
 
Haha, looks like they have been doing some more work on the censor since someone else found a way around it. Even though it is almost Christmas they haven't been sitting on their sitters not doing any thing. BTW, if you are curious you can type dirty words and then click the preview button and it will show you the censored version without actually posting it. Not a big fan of clam, I'll miss beef curtains!
 
I think a much better idea would be to turn random, normal words into curse words. It would be a drastic improvement in the utilization of the censoring plugin.

Yeah, I had thought about that before. I am not mature enough to have that kind of power though. I would start off by changing ODU, GMU, UR, etc. into various things. Why is everything being turned into sitter or D!!! yet these horrible words are still getting through?
 
I was thinking more along the lines of changing words like "the," "of," "and," "or." That would liven this place up.

I feel those are too common. The words should be slightly more abstract so you feel like you have achieved something if you are able to uncover one of those particular words. Maybe we can even have prizes.

I never realized how many words have the letter a followed by two s's until this whole sitter thing. It seems like a sitter pops up in every other post.
