So, I had the opportunity to ask about a game in Rec Hall today at the Baltimore stop on the Coaches Caravan.

Coach Chambers' answer was that he'd like for it to happen, it's a good idea, but the logistics are difficult. They're thinking about it, but have nothing to announce.

So basically it's 50-50 that the team will be playing west of the (Eugene) Burrowes building. 

My bet would be on the "under 50-50!!"     

THIS year McGary is a sure lottery pick. A huge advantage in NBA contracts. Next year at this time (or ever for that matter) McGary may not be so lucky. There are MANY 6-10 big bodies world wide.
He is NOT Garnett, McGrady, LeBron or Kobie. They were 100% sure bets, anytime they wanted to be drafted.   
That's why I say "take the money while it is there!"  No guarantee it (big NBA money) will ever be there again. 
McGary has good movement and bounce now...............will he still have it after an injury like an ACL???   

Looks like MSU will be the preseason favorite.

Hope he works out all of his personal issues for the best! He would be a big loss to the staff.

This is another reason why Bankshot believes Chambers is an amateur. In Bankshot's opinion, it is only surpassed by Stretch's apparent lack of direction to the head coach in dealing with matters of the media. You never, ever discuss your staff and personnel decisions until the situation is final.

I think Bankshot should change his name to Brick.

But bricks get laid.

There seems to be no doubt that Bankshot has something against Chambers.  It is also apparent that he likes to antagonize people.

Putting those 2 things aside, he does have a point:
"You never, ever discuss your staff and personnel decisions until the situation is final."That part of his statement is true.  It makes no sense why this would be brought out.  The should not be anyone in the program talking about the possibility of a departure.   The only statement that should be made is if that person departs.  There is nothing good, only bad that can come from this.

Do you ever recall the anyone in the Athletic Department commenting on O'Brien interviewing with the NFL teams?  No.   It was leaked that he was interviewing, and that only came after he turned down the jobs.

Seems highly unusual to me to mention a "possible" departure.

because the "Bucs are Back!"   

Always nice to beat the Phils......................     

I didn't see the "closer to home" line!      

I agree with ya Champ!  From my experience many ivory tower bean counters don't know to get in out of the rain.................and they overstate their importance. 

The article says national scoring average this season was the lowest since 1952.
Boy, the three point line has done wonders, huh!       

Maybe we should go back to the "no dunk" rule       
P.S.   Dunking was banned 1967 to 1976 in college hoops.
