Re: ***2010-2011 College Hoops Thread***

Wow, tell your buddy we are expecting HUGE things from him going foward. VCU has had a couple 7 footers before but i think Haley is our first American 7 footer, when i first heard about his height i was like great some Russian that has no hands, then i heard he was from Cali. I heard he was pretty highly recruited but choice VCU because of a specialty engineering program we have. Any truth to that? Is this guy real smart too?

That's awesome... honestly I haven't seen him since he was like three feet tall- my buddy's family lives in Palmdale (which is in the middle of nowhere a little over an hour away from LA). I do know his brother is super smart (computer whiz) and his mom was the director of film/theater admissions at UCLA for a while (helped my own brother get into UCLA, even though he transferred later). It doesn't surprise me he chose VCU b/c of the engineering program.

Yeah i gained a lot of respect for BYU holding on to their values. Not everyone may agree with the principles set forth at BYU but at least they dont abandon them. I had BYU beating Gonzaga but losing to FL, obvisouly neither will/have happened.

Duke lost. AZ looks really good. Derrick Williams had an unreal dunk that really caps off a great game by him.

What a freak athlete. He's big, can handle the ball, shoot and drive.

VCU!!!

This is pretty crazy. The Richmond area really doesnt have anything to offer sporting wise. VCU basketball is probably the biggest sporting event in Richmond, so this is really awesome. We had a hurricane here about 7 years ago that blacked out the city for like 5 days and the whole campus turned into kind of one big party, albeit no lights, ac, showers, but TONS of beer. Thats probably the most similar to the type of buzz around the city right now, although less nasty.

I know a couple of you are Fl fans, and i am too to some degree, but id rather see a smaller program like Butler go on. If VCU somehow pulls out a win vs Kansas, we have a legit shot at the championship.



VCU!!!!!!!!!!
