    Jermaine Lawrence asks for release

    I'm not sure I follow. I mentioned family which would speak to the brothers and uncles you mentioned. I don't understand what you mean about the coaches and administrators. My point remains the same about the challenges Mick has mentioned about re-recruiting players he already has due to...

    '14 IL PG Larry Austin

    We've been wanting a player that can knock down 3's. Cobb can do that. He could be a valuable role player and back-up to TC and KJ.

    Jermaine Lawrence asks for release

    There was an article posted here at one time where Mick described one of the biggest challenges of recruiting is having to re-recruit players on his own team due to their own unrealistic expectations or those of the player's family or handlers. I wonder if this occurred with JL. I hope it works...

    Jermaine Lawrence asks for release

    I thought he made some strides prior to his foot injury. When he came back he looked lost. He needs more court time to develop. A year off could be pretty detrimental. Best of luck to him where ever he lands.

    2014 Spring Recruiting

    I'm pretty sure #bearcatnation's comments about x recruiting johnson were in jest. The level of scrutiny it's receiving probably isn't needed. Any updated projections on who the Cat's might land for the rest of the 2014 class?

    Next years team

    I don't disagree with you. My point about defense, even taking a step back, still has to be viewed through context of a typical Mick Cronin defense.They don't have the seasoned players they once had so experiencing will be lacking. Even an average UC defense is a lot better than what a lot of...

    Good point about Lance. Thanks for the info!

    Next years team

    Mick will have this team playing good defense. Whatever step back they take without the presence of JJ & Rubles might be made up for on the offensive end with more offensive options and balanced scoring.

    2014 Spring Recruiting

    For recruits classified as 2014 who have been released from the LOI's (it looks like Tennessee has had a couple lately), do those players need to commit to new schools during this current signing period (April 16 - May 21) to be eligible for the 2014-2105 season? or do they get some sort of...

    2014 Spring Recruiting

    I didn't see much of x this past season. What is Martin's natural position? It looks like he's comparable size-wise to Jermaine Sanders.

    Next years team

    The depth of the team is really encouraging. This group is harder to predict than last season. Everyone is either new or will be in an expanded role. I'm hoping Shaq becomes more assertive, TC grabs the starting PG spot, JL adds strength & confidence while playing a more natural position...

    strickland vs quadri Moore

    It's a tough comparison to make (JJ & Moore). Moore's not going to have the athleticism that JJ brought but will probably be a more polished player with much more range and diverse skill set. I'm excited about our frontline. DeBerry, Strickland, Moore, JL, and Clark are going to give Mick a...

    Torian Graham 2014 JUCO SG

    I wonder that also. Graham has been a favorite recruiting target of the forum but perhaps to the actual decision makers other options are more appealing at this time. Mick's brother didn't do anyone any favors tweeting awhile ago about getting one of the best juco players...or something along...

    Torian Graham 2014 JUCO SG

    Have things cooled off with him as far as pending commitment? Are they waiting on other possible transfers?

    OT: Tournament Discussion

    Chad Ford from espn in his top 100 has Daniels from uconn getting some first round draft buzz based on his tourney play. Previously he was a late second projection.

    Is the coaching staff backing off or in a holding pattern because of possible transfers?

    New Arena

    I agree. Has anyone been to the YUM center? Does it look and feel like a L'ville arena (doesn't the city own it?). I would want the same as far as it feeling like the Cat's arena but would want the venue to be able to attract better concerts, NCAA tourney games, and other events.

    2014 Spring Recruiting

    I guess I like the idea of "pure wealth". JL playing the 5 hindered his development and expecting Shaq to contribute on defense at the 4 like Titus is just not going to happen.
