But I’m not totally surprised. Huge loss.

and I was just wondering how good our PGs could be after seeing Dogus Balbay at Houston airport.

I'm gonna go on record and call this a fanshit!

I even named my son Kolt.

Uh, bad week for Texas basketball

2010-11 team looking like:

PG: Balbay, Lucas
SG: Brown, Joseph
SF: Hamilton, Williams
PF: Johnson, Chapman
C: Thompson, Wangmeme, Hill

Really hope Joseph and Thompson are college ready quickly. Won’t hurt if they’re ready to play D also. Not a ton of defense on the returning roster.

Losing Johnson, Hill, Chapman, Lucas, and Balbay after this season. Probably lose Hamilton too.

ugh

If Balbay starts then will be average at best.

Hey guys look at the bright side...

Perhaps he’s leaving (besides wanting to be closer to home) because he know’s there’s not gonna be much PT available behind Joseph. He wants to go somewhere where he can run the show and he realizes that he can’t do that here. That’s my theory.

Sports is man's joke on God, You see, God says to man, 'I've created a universe where it seems like everything matters, where you'll have to grapple with life and death and in the end you'll die anyway, and it won't really matter.' So man says to God, 'Oh, yeah? Within your universe we're going to create a sub-universe called sports, one that absolutely doesn't matter, and we'll follow everything that happens in it as if it were life and death.'" - Sam Kellerman

Ward not getting plenty of playing time

Would have been very surprising.

If you need me

I’ll be sitting in my dark room, alone, drinking.

Joseph/Ward

is much better than Joseph/Balbay. Balbay should be a walk on.

I read that Williams might transfer as well. Did the Rick Barnes fall last year with two first rounders and a third rounder scare everyone? It should’ve. I just want some players that can make a free throw. Rick Pitino always stressed the importance of free throws. MJ made half his points every night shooting free throws.
