Re: Hunter sez's

If Hunter gets accused of playing Forbes through injuries and ruining a potential NBA career, it won't be the first time in his career. He wore out his welcome in basketball circles in Atlanta for doing that and more with a few players. Some accusations include withholding scouting information that ...

Re: Tulane Wins Pepperdine Series

The RPI top 25 today includes James Madison, UC Santa Barbara, Coastal Carolina, Indiana St, Campbell, Kennesaw St, UC Irvine, and our own East Carolina. The "big boys" aren't keeping them down. A good coach & a solid budget is all it takes. We have the baseball facilities. Again, I h...

Re: Spring Practice-2024

I'd like us to feed Hughes 18+ carries per game. Our offensive success will feed off him. I don't care who our QB is. Just manage the game and eliminate mistakes. I think you’ll see this as Troy had one of the leading rushers in the nation, and the OC has said that he intends to use the running gam...

Re: Spring Practice-2024

Cobra Kai has the ability to read defenses and anticipate throws. He needs to have time and also trust his ability. I also he would flourish in an Air-Raid or a pro-style offense. RPO doesn't suit him. Both quarterbacks have things to work on, TY Thompson's interception to td ratio is not good, thr...
