Nope...Once again, are you proud of ua's players?

Actually Mario being a first round bust is a fact. Saying he was only a bust because he blew out his knees is speculation.AZBALLER said:ACTUALLY, Mario was the ONLY first round pick, and he was only a bust after blowing his knee out twice...What do FACTS matter though?
Do you have to be "proud" of every player who ever played in order to be a fan? Are you proud of Mitchell Freedman and Loren Wade?AZBALLER said:Nope...Once again, are you proud of ua's players?
AZBALLER said:Of the 22 UA-ASU games played at McKale, the Sun Devils' lone victory came in double-overtime, 1995, when UA starters Damon Stoudamire, Ben Davis and Joseph Blair did not play...
AZBALLER said:Once AGAIN this is the post which I'm referring to...No I'm not proud of ASU's basketball history, although it seems that ua fans are proud of their "academic athletes"...
boondockdrunk said:Do you have every UofA player's GPA? Do you know the whole situation that those specific players were in?
Yes, we have all admitted that what Damon did was incredible stupid. But you are depicting all athletes at UofA are stupid and poor excuses for human beings. This however would be a stereotype placed upon these students because of a few bad apples. You seem to be promoting bias judgment based upon a minority of the student athletes.
So stop pretending that you know anything about the lives of these athletes. All you ever do is vomit up liable against anyone in a red and blue uniform.
AZBALLER said:Do YOU know the definition of liable? Or are you just throwing out words that you've heard before.
Who cares? Besides you, I mean. People don't graduate from college in 4 years for many reasons. It doesn't mean they are stupid or bad people as you seem to be implying.AZBALLER said:BTW, how old is your recruit? Or are you still ignoring that Q?
Really?AZBALLER said:Seriously, as much as I dislike ua, I won't ever post a LIE about them...
AZBALLER said:There is no speculation here...Dean is visiting ASU this weekend.
AZBALLER said:Oh, I forgot...Do you cat fans really believe you're going to beat out sc for Holmes???
Come on now, don't get yourselves soo excited over a player that really isn't interested in your school...
AZBALLER said:You're comparing Kerr's senior #'s to Kruger's junior numbers, and I'll take an NBA's coaches son any day of the week...
AZBALLER said:As much as I hate Lute, I think he could take ASU's team to the tourney this year...There is plenty of talent and depth on ASU's team right now...
MaoTosiFanClub said:Really?
DevilPrideBAS said:Hey Mao, all of those quotes you posted were opinions. When did opinions become lies??
Remember the last time we had a debate where you said I was merely being a "homer" for suggesting Channing Frye had a higher upside as an NBA player than Ike Diogu? How's that working out for ya? Maybe my views weren't so homeristic after all.Card Trader said:When they don't support Mao's homeristic views. Commonplace around here for him.

Holmes has two years of athletic eligibility remaining. As long as he stays academically eligible and out of trouble, frankly the rest is none of anyone else's business.

Zona90 said:Every school has some players their fans are not proud of but the majority of Lute's guys I am very proud of. You look at guys like Steve Kerr, Sean Elliott, Tom Tolbert, Craig McMillan, Kevin Flanagan and Harvey Mason to name a few, they are all doing very well outside of basketball. By the way, Kevin's wife is hot. If you don't know who she is, she is the ESPN sideline reporter for college football.
Finally, look at how many players who played under Lute who went to the NBA and overseas and have made millions of dollars and are now set for life. The odds are overwhelmingly against college players making it to the NBA but Lute has taught and developed his players well enough that many can go to the next level(NBA & Europe) and make a living. For that, yes, I am proud.
The only questions you seem to be asking is how old Louis Holmes is and what we felt about Arizona basketball players that left Tucson over a decade ago. The answer to both those questions is the same as Renz so I didn't want to repeat. But since you're obtuse about seemingly everything I'll repeat - I don't know and I don't care.AZBALLER said:Solid post! I can respect that. I only wish your fellow ua fans could post an honest answer, without dodging questions.
