I love Fran, but if we lose to Nebrantska at home, it's time

If?

 

[MikeyJoe]

It’s time.

 

[Thanksgiving Dinner]

It’s time.

To lose Fran or to euthanize Payton Sandfort?

 

[BuffettHawk]

To lose Fran or to euthanize Payton Sandfort?

LOL

 

[Thanksgiving Dinner]

LOL

At the time I posted this, Fartman had just airballed from one fucking foot away from the basket. I'm 100% certain this is what lit the fire under him

 

[Talkin' Goat]

It’s still time.

Usually guys with no chin and a tiny mouth just aren't very good at sports.

[Creed]

That seems interesting and unexpected.

 

[Squat Cobbler]

Four star recruit from Minnesota. Just played a game 4 days ago for Miami.

 

[Hawkstrat]

247's national recruiting guy had this to say about him last year.

Eric Bossi
National Basketball Director
Projection
Power 4 Starter
While currently listed as a small forward by 247Sports, Johnson-Arigu is probably more of a combo forward right now. He's likely most comfortable as a small ball four right now because of his preference for driving the ball, his nose for the ball on the offensive glass and him being much more comfortable as a jump shooter from 17 feet and in. To make a full time move out to the wing, he is going to need to improve his range and ball handling. During the last summer, he made just six of his 34 (17.6%) attempts from beyond the three point line according to Synergy.

Defensively is where Johnson-Arigu really has a chance to shine early on during his college years. He is instinctual when it comes to getting into passing lanes and causing deflections, his lateral quickness allows him to stay in front of opponents and most importantly he is a versatile defender who is capable of switching one through four.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

I seem to remember Iowa being in contention for him maybe a year ago?

 

[L. Wade Childress]

I am guessing he opened his peacock app last night and saw 5 white dudes on the floor

 

[kenos]

Fran getting on the slime line.

Now if they just start playing defense.

 

[ivan_drago]

Not a bad recruiting get for a vacation guy

Yeah he was down to Miami and Iowa.

 

[Kamala]

Yeah he was down to Miami and Iowa.

As is often the case

 

[douglasbader]

Anyone who ever doubted Fran is a fucking idiot. Anyone who ever wanted him fired is a fool.

FRANISANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!

He was in Miami, how do think Fran found him?

Bring it in Doug is an underrated Doug

 

[CamelTones]

Looking at Miami, they fucking suck. His minutes were really odd. Played 10ish in a semi close game against Tennessee and 11 in a close loss to Virginia Tech. Didn’t see much action in any of their buy games.

 

[kenos]

So Fran got Dezmon, Bidara, and Isaiah.

Heading in the right direction.

Sounds like names in a Mike Gessell bible class.

Dothan Ijadimbola, Totino-Grace , Small Forward

Dothan Ijadimbola is a 6-6, 180-pound Small Forward from Minneapolis, MN.

This guy would appear to be a good get too

 

[Mysterio]

Fran thought he had Johnson-Arigu and told that Diggs kid to piss off which probably worked out. Diggs doesn't appear to be doing much so far.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Looks to be a similar skill set to Traore.

Fran needs to find a bullshit way to get Thelwell another year

 

[ivan_drago]

 

[L. Wade Childress]

under the common sense gun laws that we all support, that guy would probably be red flagged.

 

[douglasbader]

RIP Dolph.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Dolph was on another level last night

 

[Debit One]

What a full circle L Wade moment.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

RIP Dolph.

He's saying Dolph is screwed

 

[douglasbader]

LOOK AT THE NAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Nobody]

Dude can't even keep up with a box score anymore, this would be beyond disastrous for him.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

They were playing a red team for the second game in a row and they had a guy named Berke Buyuktuncel.

he wasn’t even pretending to be sober.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

Dolph is done when Kirk is done right? I thought he'd have hung it up by now to spend more time at his bar

Dolph will leave when they cart his ass out and not a second before.

Yay.

 

[ivan_drago]

I say that with no inside info but he strikes me as the guy who really enjoys making money. He does cameos for fuck’s sake.

Wait, people pay money for cameos from Gary Dolphin?

What would it cost Halo to send Dolph down to Colombia for a night out?

 

[ivan_drago]

they’re only like $20!
