'12 TX (JUCO) Titus Rubles (Commit)

[david aka the TYZ]

Welcome aboard Mr. Rubles! Look forward to seeing you in a uniform next year!

 

[bearcat18]

Love his quotes about how he loves to attack the rim and crash the boards on the offensive end. With Titus and Shaq our driving ability already is better than this year.

I call a spade a spade. You are the 2. It is what it is.

I am not here promoting BCL with "insider info" on Rubles. He hasn't committed to UC, and Jeff has that info as well. I know it for a fact.

You claiming otherwise is one of many instances that make it clear you are an idiot. I'm sure you will carry on and continue to make my point...

Turns out LivingLegend was correct all along.

Impressive

He hadn't committed Greatone. He wanted to commit but his brother who advises him wanted him to look around and wait. UC has always been his number 1 since the visit though and I believe he made that clear. There wasn't a formal commit till now.

Bearcattalk your welcome for the story months in advance free of charge

 

[WAITE HOYT 2]

TheLivingLegend, You hit that one on the head. Try this one. Do we get Obekpa as well?

 

[BearcatBounce]

Hopefully we can hit the lottery with him and he turns out to be a Crowder or Ricardo ratcliffe type. Definitely wouldnt be disappointed if he doesnt just saying that would be huge!

Everyone knew Titus committed to UC 2 months ago except for LOBOT when Titus switched his twitter handle to Bearcat Bound. Even TLL knew.

It is about time for LOBOT to take to the internet visiting every UC website to let everyone know Mick Cronin has taken the _______ job. Last spring it was the North Carolina State job, this spring it will be what? Illinois? UAB? I can hardly take the anticipation.

Haha

Lobot passes along the info he recieves. I appreciate that. I do agree with your point though ralph

 

[Bearcat22]

I really like his commitment to rebounding. In close games a few extra possessions can make a world of difference.

Has anyone heard how Shaq is progressing in practice? I read an article a while ago, I think by Dan Hoard, that coaching staff is trying to develop his jumpshot. I think they said it was more of a line drive and they want him to put some arc on it.

I am wondering if we finally sealed the deal with Rubles because we are losing confidence in other option(s)? The timing seems a little odd.

Maybe the Cats were holding onto a spot for Charles Mitchell and when he verbaled to Maryland that moved Rubbles up the list.

I hope you are right...but I thought that was older news. Maybe Mick waited a little so Rubles didn't think he was second fiddle to Mitchell???

Does anyone have a link to highlights? youtube only has 15 SEC clip?

I think its like Jeff said, he wanted to come here the whole time. I guess his brother finally let him finalize it.

Yeah, my understanding is that the coaching staff had the offer out to him and it was his decision as to when to commit. I don't think it was a case of the staff waiting for someone else to commit.

Ruben Patterson wouldn't be a bad comparison. has some outside game and ball skills but best on attack.

Its weird how UC fans can't accept the kid at his own words when he said he fell in love with UC when he first came here but wanted to take his time to make a decision because it was so far away from his family.

Titus has had an offer for awhile. He finally decided to commit even though he has been leaning this way strong since his visit.

I'd definitely take another Ruben Patterson. Sounds like his skill set fits in perfectly for what this team is missing/needing.

Jeff, I'll warn you now if he doesn't turn out to be as good as Ruben Patterson a few on here will bring this quote up in a few years and call you out for it.
