Could ray have gotten him? Pollard's numbers... 14.2 ppg 7.0 rpg 1.2 apg
If we could have gotten him out of juco, he's a huge miss. He would really help us out in the front court

University of Houston, coached by the former OU coach Kelvin Sampson. Posted a thread a couple of weeks ago, seems to be doing well with his life as well as his game.
As much as I'd love for him to be here, getting away from this area was probably the best thing for himQuote:

He loaded us up with 2 star works in progress and kids who didn't even start on their high school team...
Also, Pollard has been on Houston a couple of years. His first year there was last year.
Actually Stansbury assisted Houston in getting him in return Houston allowed one of their players that wanted to transfer to TAMU.
They both Wanted to come to State. Ray and all the Ray lovers on this Board blasted me for even suggesting we sign Pollard. Travis daniels was their poster Boy for what we needed. Ray was an idiot but he had plenty of fans right here. Ray ****ing Charles could see that Pollard could play.
With pollard we'd be at least 7-3 and have a shot at postseason. We have no front court after wareQuote:

That's really not relevant to this... We have a huge hole in our front court that pollard would've filled nicely. Nevertheless we don't have pollard, so hopefully Holman is ready soon and can give us some good minsQuote:

Actually 13.5 ppg 6.5 rpgQuote:

Pollard needed to get the hell away from here for his own good..
Ray should have given Geno a scholarship one because his parents were alumni and big program supporters and not wasted it on Applewhite.. RR handled that situation wrong from the start...
The main thing this team is missing is a TRUE big man who can guard the paint just like JV did..
We have scores at the 1..3.. & 4 ..
That's weird. We're both using the same site...http://s22.postimg.org/sqohqe0jl/image.pngQuote:

That must not have updated with his games Monday and Tuesday
Coach can't help it he is a Pollard hater. What about Daniel and pitiful basketball IQ. Pollard is just better than Daniel. Don't even talk about Daniel and his matador defense. He just learned how to set a screen last month and he still can't block out or offer any help defense. Come crunch time and Howland has flat top Fred playing and Travis--look like Tarzan play like Jane--Daniels on the pines.Quote:
