  1. Whatever. This is just another excuse for LOSING. I don't understand why Johnny just doesn't have the guys press during the entire game.
  2. Here's a stumper for ya: If a tree gets a new coach in the forest, does anyone on this board care?
  3. Gotta agree with Gray here. I think it would be worse for Jordan's development to have him come off the bench. He's used to being one of, if not the best players on the court at all times. Now, he has tougher competition to deal with. What I would like to see more of from Jordan is creating his own shots. Driving to the basket, fadeaway shots, post moves... I haven't really seen much of that from him. He's been a FREAK in transition, and he's getting some good looks from 3. I've seen him use the baseline a few times to create shots, and I hope he continues to do that, but I'd love to see him put the ball on the floor, use his quick first step to get by a defender (I know he's got this, I've seen it a few times) and create a shot in the lane. It may be a confidence issue, it may be that he needs some coaching, but he certainly does not need the 6th man role.
  4. Although some of them have been flops, I am as well. It would be nice if the Mean Green were the next Nike pet project like Boise, VA Tech and TCU. Heck, we've already changed our uniforms around enough the past few years... it would just be par for the course.
  5. Totally agree. Extremism is cited all the time both Christian & Muslim... Sadly, I think many Americans would belive that all Muslims have some extremism in them which is just not fair. I'm glad you're here to refute that thought.
  6. This is a great question. For me, I believe He is one and the same. The Israeli God is the same one who's plan was to send Jesus into the world (Trinitarily, God the father.) However, for some reason beyond my comprehension, His plan was for the Jewish nation to reject Jesus until a later time. I believe Israel is still God's chosen people and at some point in the future, He will reconcile Himself with them through Jesus. In the meantime, I'm so glad His plan was to reach out to gentiles like me. I'm no minister anywhere, so take my thoughts for what you will. I just love me some Jesus!
  7. Now that this is in the Eagle's Nest, I'll chime in once here, then hang up and listen. Alot of people believe as you do. As a matter of fact, I'm sure if you press alot of Americans, they would come to this same conclusion... even ones who profess to be Christian/Muslim/Buddhist/any other religion. The truth is, if you dig into any of the texts (Bible/Koran/Pali Canon/etc...), or inquire with a minister for each religion, you'll find this ideology to be out of the question: A purely man-made, secular idea. And, there are plenty of secular places of worship out there as well. Jesus professes to be God incarnate. There aren't many others who also profess this. Muhammad does not, Buddha does not. None of the major religions have this caveat other than Christianity. To use the age-old term: Jesus is either a Lord, Liar, or Lunatic. That is a question for everyone to answer on their own. A Christian's job (Mat. 28:19) is to share the Gospel with everyone. This is offensive to many people. Hence, either the Christian backs down and does not follow through on this command and is praised as tolerant by secular society, OR that Christian acts on this command and is disliked by secular society as being offensive/intolerant. Now, don't get me wrong, there are MANY Christians who do this in a way that is overly offensive (i.e: the dude who preached fire-brimstone in the free speach area on campus when I was there '00 - '05), and there are "Christians" who are just flat-out, NOT CHRISTIAN. (i.e: Westboro Baptist Church, Robert Tilton, this is a long list...) Tim Tebow is doing a fantastic job of following through on his command (He's not a fantastic QB though, and the option-style offense will definitely be exposed if they make it to the playoffs, IMHO). I agree with Kurt Warner's quote above, and I think St. Francis said it beter: "Share the Gospel always. Use words when necessary." Actions speak louder than words, correct? So as long as Tebow is not living a life contrary to what he's saying, then I think he's doing as Christ instructed him. Now, as far as the whole planking/owling/Tebowing thing? I never got into that. Am I old? Oh no! But, if you whippersnappers are having fun doing it, then by all means...
  8. So... How 'bout that Chase Walling? Pretty good player huh? - Y'all can have your Benz/BMW/Porches... if you decide to road rage around me, or drive slow in the left lane, my Chevy Z71 will crush your pretty cars.
  9. So... How 'bout that Chase Walling? Pretty good player huh?
  10. Never heard of "Mestransfere, NV." Can a moderator please tell me where this is located? , ,
  11. It's good to see my adopted player from last year get picked up! Go Craig!
  12. Maybe they were making sure he had the grades before putting in the appeal?
  13. Depends. Will the concessions stands be open? How 'bout tailgating opportunities? Who is our mythical opponent (I'd like to see the Mean Green VS Dinosaurs)?
  14. Honestly, with the loss of Dunbar, I don't see how we'll be favored to win many games at all, sans TSU. Now, once we get to conference play, the Mean Green will hopefully have an established runner/s behind this nice O-Line. If so, maybe we can win some and become favorites.
  15. I can't really understand what you're saying because there's not enough hip-hop.
  16. Totally agree... for now. If CUSA/MWC came calling, then by all means: Let's Go CUSA/MWC! Keep it going!!!!! dang it! I got sucked into a conference realignment thread... I think I'm delerious from too much Tony Mitchell
  17. I like his O-Line highlights better than his D-Line highlights. If we're his only D-1 offer, then I would expect him to take it... right?
  18. I think you misspelled "points" in the title of this thread. ...that was your prediction for how many points he'll score, right?
  19. Wish the Mean Green could get these guys, but it would have to be an away game since they refuse to set foot in Apogee.
  20. I guess I'm just missing why being the HC at ARSt. is MORE of an opportunity than being the Offensive Coordinator of Auburn or the HC of Vanderbilt?
  21. Dodge is probably looking at real estate in the Scottsdale area.
  22. This is not what I was expecting... but it is not shocking. I wonder if Graham approached them, or vice-versa. Not sure why he would want to leave Pitt in a weak big east to go Pac 12. Honestly, I'd be happier with Jones if I were an ASU fan. What an odd choice.
  23. And he achieved this by taking the HC job at ARSt.?
  24. AR is home for Malzahn. I don't think he'd leave unless the Razorbacks came calling... look at the Vandy offer. If it were about money/prestige, he'd be building Vandy into an SEC contender. Very Nice Hire for ARSt. The belt is getting better.
