Re: ****WARNING**** (Earthquake ahead)

Nance is a warrior. He plays while having Crohn's Disease. I'll let you Google that yourselves so you can see just how debilitating that disease can be. In addition to fighting Crohn's, he also has to fight the side effects of the medication he takes to treat his Crohn's. Here's a short list of tho...

Re: Shyatt post-game comment (New Mexico)

I thought Bentz was one of our better players tonight. Put it like this, he outplayed Josh Adams by a galaxy.

Re: Nance's legacy and place in Cowboy History.

If you take the supporting cast of any players you just mentioned and give them to Nance this debate isn't even taking place and I think that alone tells you what you need to know about Nance and his place in Cowboy history. I agree with your point to a...point. However, I'm sorry, if I am to be ob...

Re: ****WARNING**** (Earthquake ahead)

I certainly think he could have a career in the NBA, but being realistic isn't bad. He will go down as one the most beloved players in UW history but statistically he is a very good player, but not elite. Let me add to this, I hope like hell he does. I will root for him as long as he plays. After t...

"We'd like to win them all but I believe it's not always about the end result...it's about how you go about doing things." Yeah I was listening. He thinks they will make some noise next week. I sure would like to believe him but I am finding it hard right now. Maybe they will show us some...

Re: New Mexico game

We will know in about 10 minutes whether we face CSU or Utah St. in the first game next week. Big question now is can Shyatt get this team out of the quarterfinals of the MWC tournament for the first time ever? Are we allowed to call into question Shyatts history and schemes again? Cut it out. What...

Re: ****WARNING**** (Earthquake ahead)

He'll have a career in the NBA he has the connections to get him the tryout and then it's entirely up to him and the work he puts in now it may take some D League time but I believe we will be watching him in the NBA at some point. Hey I'm rooting for Larry, hope it works out for him. Ditto complet...

Is it fair to question if Larry Nance Jr. is overrated?

To preface, let me be clear, the comment you are about to read has nothing to do with the just completed game, and it is almost unthinkable to the well majority of terrific Pokes fans here, of this I am almost certain. Larry Nance. A good player, yes. An overrated player as well? In my opinion, the ...

If we had Hugh Greenwood on our team we'd have 5 more wins and 5 fewer losses...what a player.

Re: New Mexico game

Grief! was Adams out partying last night or something? What's wrong with him today? Highly streaky shooter...nothng we haven't seen many times this year already. IMO Adams needs to start understanding that what worked in high school isn't usually going to work at this level. Harness this wild horse!

Re: New Mexico game

What is almost unfathomable is that all season long this team has still not figured out a way to get the ball to Nance in the low blocks...constantly having Nance rotate at the top of the perimeter and making him almost useless in the process. f-word Burman! LOL! Of course this game is Berman's fau...
