KAT KID SLAPS CARTIER MARTIN IN THE FACE!

David Hoskins was who our offense "went through" he was our "big", our offense was terrible, stop being stupid.

No Hoskins wouldn't have been the #2 option for a team with any aspirations of winning a high major conference, that doesn't make him terrible.  He would be a great asset for this team.  A healthy David Hoskins would have gotten minutes for all but about 2 or 3 teams in last year's tournament.  There could certainly be an argument made that we overrated him, but its flat wrong to call him terrible.  I thought you were above trolling.

on a team devoid of talent.

I DIDN'T STUTTER.

(sorry Cartier,  I bought you your first beer at Porter's after the home NIT loss, so maybe that makes up for it?)

I didn't call him terrible.  I said he would've gotten minutes for any Big 12 team, but that because the team was terrible, he was who the offense went through.  The only thing I would've clarified was that he was our best "big" or something to better placate the Cartier butthurt faction.  Everything else is pretty obvious and I stand by.

so when you posted

Nino sucks guys and not even in a David Hoskins kind of way.  Sorry, but its true.

you really didn't mean that Hoskins sucked, just overrated.  I don't agree but I can ride with that.  All the clarification I was looking for :cheers:

it's pretty rare that someone the size hoskins/nino can contribute much at the 4 at the high major level.  hoskins had the size, the ability and knowledge of how to use his size, and a decent 10 foot jumper.  i would be happily surprised if nino can pull it together and contribute b/c we're going to be thin in the blocks the next few years.

No faith in the trio of Diaz, Gip, and DJamer?

we need depth, after those 3 + nino, we're all guards.

Bell or Atewe  :crossfingers:

Hopefully, 1 of those guys will be able to give us something in 13-14, sorta what I'd like to see from DJamer this year.

DJamer appears to be a workman type big, nobody ever understands how valuable they can be. Never thought Colon was appreciated for what he did. DJamer should strive to be Kenneth Faried, Colon should be his floor.

I have seen enough to have moderate hope in Diaz, Gip, and DJamer. Clearly more so in Diaz and Gip but the early returns on DJamer have been decent. DJamer at least has the frame and appears to have the athleticism to hold his own in the paint.

Sincerely,
UW

i like diaz and gip, DJamer is a wildcard.  seems like you have to drop 3 or 4 big guys for every 1 that turns out to contribute.  another reason i wish b-dubs would focus more on bigs when recruiting.

At the point guard spot, Weber mentioned the names of Rodriguez, Irving, Spradling and freshman Michael Orris.

At the two-guard could be Spradling and Irving, while McGruder is inked in at the small forward.

Inside, Weber said, "I wish I could tell you. It's someone new every day that steps up."

The candidates are Henriquez, Gipson, Diaz, Williams, plus freshman D.J. Johnson.

Others trying to find a spot are Southwell, who Weber calls his "best passer," plus Lawrence.

"I told the guys the other day we have six or seven guys who can play, but who will be players eight, nine and 10?" said Weber.

Looks like thats settled then.  Straw that stirs the drink.  Welp, time for me to embrace the Southmeh i guess.
