Holy Leal

wondering how CMW is going to manage MM and team chemistry the rest of this season. There was one very unhappy camper on the bench yesterday. My bet is MM hits the portal 5 seconds after this season ends.
From his expression sitting the bench in the 2nd half I wouldn’t be surprised if he wasn’t on the evening train out of town.
 
I wonder how much of MM's issue is him arriving here thinking he was a OAD guy like JHS. Sold on Woodson getting him to the league right away. Didn't really think he had anything to learn, or plan on being here multiple seasons and having to earn playing time.
you may be on to something. He had that "why in the F#)ck am I still here?" look on his face yesterday.

hard to understand how one of RMK's favorite sons can't teach a kid footwork and basic defense. Don't they have a library of game films down there to use? Show him some WIlkerson tape. Or Greg Graham. Hell even Calbert was a defensive monster compared to MM. Kitch was slow as shit but played defense 5x better.

What makes you say that? I’ve talked with him and seen him do actual business like things, I bet he fails miserably.
What is wrong with you? I can’t really imagine him failing at anything. Started a real estate business as a junior, used NIL to pay his sister’s college tuition. Sounds like a real failure .
 
it did on the court. But we also didn't have to deal with any foul trouble aside from MR (which is always a given, and Ballo solves that problem).

Sad to think that a 5 star probably drawing close to 7 digit NIL is just sitting there counting the days. We all know they don't focus on defense in the AAU scene but you'd think between his HS coach and CMW they could have made some progress. That's a top 10 recruit providing nothing to you , in the biggest game of the year, in his second season after starting pretty much all of the past 2 seasons. CMW did what he had to do, now...but really needed to get through to him over the summer last year about defense.

I guess, in 4-6 weeks, none of this will matter anyways.
And what’s going on with Tucker? Nothing from our two most talented players

Nothing is wrong with me.

He reached out to me and wanted a freebie for a solar deal for his parents. I told him that wasn’t my area of expertise and couldn’t do a deal for him. He never replied. That’s not how you build connections or relationships in business. I’ve also talked with him, doesn’t strike me as someone I’d hire. I hire people every week, have an interview in an hour. Probably doing better than 99% of the board in business so my opinion on him is much better than most, and for sure yours :).
 
What are you talking about? Dogs last year here he shot 41% from 2 and 37% from 3 Your boy Trey shot 48% from 2 and 46% from 3 Even Gallo out shot him??? Goode wasnt even here. Where did he fit in this?
This year he is shooting 41% from deep on a top 15 team. My boy Trey is hanging on to 30 percent to save his life for a working there way into the bubble team.

Why does he need to reply? While you’re correct I don’t know him, I do know several people who do, including some of his teachers. They feel quite a bit different than you.

Ha ha. More information needed. An Indiana basketball player, and former Indiana Mr Basketball reaches out to you inquiring about something your company sells or is involved with...did you just respond how you just typed, or did you ask him for more information, request a meeting to talk about it, etc...???

And, obviously, he was reaching out to you because you've floated deals to guys like Bates, X maybe?, in the past. He's in real estate, he knows you've "helped" out other players...

If it happened how you typed, and you just responded that it wasn't your expertise and couldn't "do a deal", if you were one of my sales people I'd probably fire you...at a minimum call you in and chastise you.
 
I read 5 or 6 at the beginning of the year. Can’t remember where. Maybe on radio tho
He also now works for a commercial Realtor out of Indy and I just saw that he started a software company that builds products for Athletes to use schedule/NIL/AD etc all the way up to full ADs.

I think he will be fine.

His KSB teachers? If so than I am wrong. If it is elementary or HS teachers than your opinion again doesn’t matter to me.

You write paragraphs of nonsense i never read on this board daily. For sure spend more time writing on here than any other poster. You give next to nothing to your actual profession. You wouldn’t be able to hold my jock in sales. Hire me? Rich.

If you'd answer someone like Leal how you did...you've set a pretty low bar. And I didn't say "hire" you...I'm sure you're enough full of shit that you'd interview well. I've hired lots of people like how I suspect you are. Some make it, some don't. Most that would shut down someone like Leal, without following up with qualifying questions, wouldn't make it. Maybe selling your stuff is easy? I'll look in to it...maybe take your job in a couple years if my kids attend IU??
 
I thought he was going to be good before woody got ahold of him. I was high on all of our transfers and Tucker. Woody can’t develop shit. I’m sure Kanaan Will average 10+ next year for Xavier.
I hope your right but woody is not the reason anyone on this team will miss wide open shots time and time again.

Like I said before I dont care what hes doing this year for a team I never would watch. He stunk when he was here and thats all in the record book.

I don’t take time or effort responding in an internet board. This is pure enjoyment for me. That’s why I don’t read your nonsense or ever respond to you. Have you not noticed that over the years? You write paragraphs I never read. Constantly.

I don’t need to have a dick measuring contest with you, I know I have an anaconda :).

Im 70 and I can still make wide open 3s but not much more if it involves movement. OLD FART that I am.

They will say I’m piling on him for no reason, but Leal has airballed a few threes this year where no1 was around him. I’ve never done that in ymca games, ever. I’ve never airballed a set three. How in the world does a Mr basketball do that. I understand difficult shots on the move, but a set shot? With no1 guarding you? How is that possible.

You’re comparing what you do in YMCA games to what Leal does in B1G games?

C’mon dude. You’re doubling down on your bad takes here. Leal was a key piece of what we did yesterday. His defense in the second half was one of the main reasons we won the game.

Curry did it the other night, by about 2 feet. It happens. Usually long for good shooters.

But hes 41% from 3 and 57% over all Its just those real bad ones you remember.
 
Amazes me that everyone is on Leals nuts for a nut shot on Furst but if Furst had not pulled the hook and hold and drug Leal to the floor first the nut shot would have not happened. Furst almost got what he deserved. Furst also tripped Leal in the play which could have been 2 fouls on Furst and 1 foul on Leal thus the refs let it all slide. TOO MUCH TO CALL.
