didnt say he was a character problem- but he never wanted to work out. Brought Mommy and Daddy in for a big meeting between them, Stands, and SC. Stands backed family.

Yes- we are not just recruiting one player throughout the entire country

17 that. Patterson I'll take. I don't remember him being allergic to defense or the team being better when he was on the bench.

did you show Ray your stats, Maybe he will let Him Play again. And you posted those shitty numbers to prove he had a jumpshot?. You still think we going to win 6-7 SEC games?

How many 5*s does our boy Marshall have over at Wichita St right now? Classes on campus(ranking):
2013 - a 2* and a NR
2012 - a 3* and one 4*
2011 - 4 NRs and a 2*
2010 - none
2009 - 2 2*
In other words -- between 1 and 3 fewer than we currently have at MSU. Undefeated and off a Final 4.
Excellent post:
I am to lazy to do it myself, but I bet there are at least a dozen other programs that could be used as a similar examples of success with low* or NR players in the past 10/15 years. Personally, I believe Coach ray has done a pretty decent job of recruiting and we will begin to see the fruits of that next year.

Yes tcdog, you were "totally and completely wrong". His shooting % has increased almost a whole percentage point. From 32.8% to 33.7%. If you can't see the improvement, you are blind.
And just to make sure, that is what you guys were arguing, right? Not that 33.7% shooting percentage is good or anything, right?

Thanks for interjecting this dumbassery in support of other dumbassery.
Allow me to refresh you on what was actually said -- instead of you making up bullshit "you think we thought".

Feel free to show where we said "Fred shot the ball well this year" or "if you can't see improvement in him, you are blind". No. Your boy made the dumb ass statement about Fred's "regression" which was ACTUALLY improvement -- and got called on it. No agenda there** Nothing more or less. Continue spinning away though.

Well said

Sure as hell seems that way. Troutman is the ONLY player that has been brought in or even talked about by Paul Jones or any of the other recruiting sites.

Yet he is scoring less this year for us. Also he didn't even play a minute vs Arkansas last game because of "Matchup Problems"

I think what Engie was really trying to say with those stats is that FTF didn't lose his jump shot. He NEVER had one to begin with and hasn't found it yet. Just poking the fire here. Enjoying the read.

Goodness, you are so eat up with your agenda you can't even take a little light ribbing. You and coach just blasted a guy for claiming a player, who increased his shooting percentage almost a whole percent, from a dismal 32.8% to a dismal 33.7%, had "lost" his shot. Obviously, anyone can see he wasn't technically correct. And everyone can also see how stupid you look trotting out such abysmal records to prove you are right, albeit just barely.
The good folks that read the board can decide who is spinning on this one. And who is laughing at who.

AbsoFREAKINGlutely With his one road win in 2 years 1-18 on the road to go along with a 7-25 SEC record RICK RAY IS AWESOME!
We have won 13 games this year 7 of which against teams with an RPI of 250 or better and who haven't won 10 games this year. Another loss is a home loss to a TCU team who is 0-15 in the Big12. But yeah we are improving our shooting from 36 to 37%
