Stands missing on O'Bryant was huge

[Coach34]

he is a damn good player and he plays hard. He is ripped too. Ray could do wonders with him

[BeardoMSU]

I remember Stans being asked why we didn't push harder for him, and his response was that we already had several post players (e.g., Sid and Bailey) and we didn't need another (or something to that effect). Pretty stupid.

[Coach34]

Thats bullshit. He was a 5-star player and the best frontcourt player to come out of Mississippi in awhile. Stands just got beat there.

Remember that the next time people talk about Ray and how he cant sign Webster's kid- but tell you Stands would have cause he signed all the Miss top players

[coastdoglover]

Ole Miss promised the moon to O' Bryant and then LSU came in and raised the anti. It pissed the rebs off almost as much as the Whitehead flip to Auburn in football. You folks just can't leave poor ole Rick alone and he has been gone 2 years. Better count our blessings that he committed Thomas, Sword, Ware, and signed Roquez or this team would be bad. Just enjoy the win today and move on, Ray has his chance now and lets see if he can recruit to get us back to the upper half of the SEC.

Stands was always a moron with his bench or anyone he didn't think would immediately crack the top 8. If you were 9-13 on the team Stands treated you like a lepar. JOB3 has gotten in much better shape. Doubt Stands nonS&C program would have the same results. JOB3 made the right choice.

I like that post a lot cld

Stansbury was the HC for 14 years. That means we get 14 years to bitch about him. It's in the rules.

These threads totally and completely suck. Can both sides please let it go and just get behind the team and coach we have right now without starting these pissing matches?

I have no doubts that this is 100% correct. You have been in the trenches. I'm just pointing out that we were not much of a factor in a recruiting battle over one of the best frontcourt basketball recruits in Mississippi of the last 10-15 years

[ScottH]

I remember watching him at Rumble in the South a few years ago against Kemper.

Hadn't seen him before. Came away wishing we had signed him.

If I recall correctly, he had 20 and Devonta had 30.

No. We've been talking Stansbury since we started posting online. There's a level of entertainment amongst the Stansbury talk you don't see/get I guess. It's kinda like "Germans" or idiosyncrasies that occur on here and SPS. Stansbury bitching is and will always be a part of MSU culture. Quit being uptight about it and join in on the fun. I promise there's plenty of fun here to go around.

If Stansbury sucked so bad why does it have to be repeated so often? Is everyone such a moronic judge of coaching capability that we just missed it?

I guess if we hear it for fourteen years we'll finally believe it.

Coach you most of the time provide good insight but when it comes to basketball your agenda gets in the way. A glaring example is you wrongfully accusing Robert Kirby of being pushed out of LSU because he failed to land Pollard. Who happens to be the most overrated player in MS in awhile. Kirby moved back to memphis for a big pay raise and to take care of his 12 brothers and sisters, one of which needed a kidney which he donated.

[Dawg61]

If we had more than 2 coaches in the last 16 years of hoops we'd talk about them too. Again, Stansbury is an idiosyncrasy that is never going away.

[TopDog58]

Stains sucked. Get over it. But those West banners sure are purty!!!!

[Acid mouth]

I just don't get the Stans bashing anymore. He's 2 years removed. I'm beginning to think that he slept with some of your wives and maybe even fathered a child or 2. Did yall attended any games while he was the coach? The atmosphere in the Hump is pathetic compared to when he was the coach. As a state fan, I'm 100% behind Ray but give the bashing a break. He didn't have a shot at OBryant, Adams followed Kirby to Georgetown, and we temporarily got Hood. I can't recall more talent coming out of our state than that year but at least Stans landed Hood. It remains to be seen if Ray can even get in the door with recruiting these type of players, but you don't see me (Stans fan) bashing him. Give it a break.

He could t donate a kidney from Baton Rouge?
He couldn't help take care of family from Baton Rouge?
Are you seriously trying to tell me Memphis payed him more than LSU?

Some of you guys will believe anything

I'm no wizard but maybe it's cause you have 4 posts?

You should try to use your post count as a pickup line a bar. Think about how cool you would sound!

[whosyourdawgy]

I don't even remember us having a snow balls chance in Hell with O'Bryant. He was going to go to either LSU or That School and LSU was always the heavy favorite. I don't think Coach K could've gotten him to MSU
