There’s no argument. The S is silent. And I only call it The Groves.

So happy for Hayden. He seems to produce when given opportunities. He finishes 3-3 from the field, all 3s. I never understand those box scores. If I have a kid who has taken 3 3s and made them all, I’m going to find ways to get him shots until he shows me he’s no longer hitting them. Great night for the Houston Defenders. Jabari Rice (who used to have his way with them when they were freshmen) made some huge plays down the stretch to lead the Horns to a big win over Hefner’s longtime summer teammate Eddie Lampkin and TCU.

Probably some pretty sage wagering advice…

Yes. It really is genius

Big congrats to United’s Wesley Yates on his nomination to the McDonald’s All American game. So well deserved and couldn’t happen to a better young man. We are all proud of you!

I suspect you are 100 percent correct 😁

Don’t feel bad. At least you didn’t have 3 million on the TCU money line. Then again if we had Mattress Mack’s $ and system, we probably wouldn’t care either.

Absolutely. And you would be correct on the hoops. Especially college. I have loved it since I was a kid watching the Big East on ESPN when it was a fledgling network (Ewing, Mullin, etc.). Now it is heaven for us junkies.

Absolutely. I would have him in the weight room as much or more as the hardwood. His dad isn’t a small guy - if he develops into Sr’s size, he will be fine.

I’m with you. I would rather watch a MAC game on Tuesday night. Sports are the best form of reality tv.

Kid can play.

And this is by no means a two man team. The bobcats are deep and also have their size back. As such, I will predict OF by 7 tonight.

I would agree with Charles that Pete is the best guard in the district and likely the best player. Although I do like the Connell kid from Buna a lot as well. And certainly that is an opinion and everybody is entitled to theirs and I’m sure a case could be made for another kid or two (I.e., from EC or Kountze). I also agree they Ghost is an exceptional freshman. My guess is he’s trolling a bit calling him the greatest freshman of all time.

Cmon Georgia. Your little brothers from that Tech school once led 63-0. After the first quarter. #CumberlandStillSucksWorseThanTCU

****AMBER ALERT**** Amber alert issued for TCU defense, last seen on 12/31/22 wearing white and purple. If you’ve seen them, please escort them to 1001 Stadium Dr. Inglewood, CA. 90301

They are capable of putting some quality basketball teams together. They also added one my all time favorite players, Morris Udeze, from the transfer portal from Wichita State. Needless to say, he couldn’t be happier with his decision to go to Albuquerque.

Cover? He bet the money line.

Lamar just got screwed out of a win. At the 3:25ish mark, a SELA shoots about a 17 footer with both feet inside the line. The officials signal 3, both the Harold Mann and the ESPN broadcasts both marvel at the fact it was called a 2 but BOTH said something along the lines of, I guess we didn’t have a good view or what do I know. The clock counts it as a 2 so I’m guessing the LU staff would have thought it was scored correctly. Fast forward to the 2:39 mark in the game and they add a point to SELA’s score as Lamar is getting ready to shoot free throws. And no one said boo. Really tough one for the cards.

We don’t overpay basketball coaches. We can’t or we might offend our overpaid football coaches…

I know a place he can go. No choking allowed but as far as I know, he should be okay.

They are unwatchable. When Sahvir Wheeler leads you in shot attempts, you are in trouble at that level.

Who’d have thought we’d see the day when Kentucky would be more competitive with Bama in football than in basketball.

I agree. And happy they once and for all proved me right when I said the Big 12 upgraded when they lost aggy but added Froggie. In the big 3 men’s sports anyway. I don’t think it’s even debatable anymore.

I’m not taking anything away from the HJ girls. They’ve made some great runs and probably should have a ring or two based on talent. But the games they lost were to other really good teams with really good coaching as well. But let’s also admit that Fogo before this year may have had the best HS girls assistant coach in the country. If he’s wasn’t THE best, Omar Sneed had to be on the short list.

You misspelled UNLV.
