OT: AUBURN BASKETBALL

just watched about 10 minutes of this Kentuck vs the Bahamas game. That nick richards character looks like a boss. Reid Travis looks like a bum. Small sample size but he just doesn't impress next to the level of athletes kentucky has. Travis is just a little bit bigger Desean Murray

It's been a hard game to watch. Refs whistling everything. I think this game is hard to take much from. Travis is better than he's showing. Looks like he's pressing, a bit. I think Richards is fool's gold in this one.
 
I was talking to a guy yesterday who’s a juco coach and he was telling me that he has a cousin that scouts for the Griz. He said Austin was to slow for the NBA game but someone would take a chance on him late in the 2nd round.

He runs the floor very well IMO. I disagree with the "scout".
 
Midnight madness outside at Toomer’s Corner on Friday night before the Tennessee game?! Please Bruce make this happen.
I don’t know what this means but if Bruce is involved it’s sure to be outstanding. Maybe they shoot part two of hulking shirtless youngsters in an abandoned warehouse live.

I think they should do some dunk/skills/3 pt contest on a Friday during a home game for football season. Make the proceeds go to charity. Get some former players involved too. Maybe have some of the coaches that are ex players participate in the 3pt contest. Make it fun etc

Potentially a court to be constructed at Toomer's (possibly funded by UA) and hold the first official practice under the lights at Toomer's corner at Midnight on that Friday. Potentially to be covered by ESPN or SEC Network.

Could be a HUGE event

Is this really in the works or are we just brainstorming in fantasy land here?

I wish we'd release our schedule. South Carolina just released. At Michigan and hosting UVA. Hopefully Bruce has something up his sleeve

Looks like we are still trying to fill a home game before releasing in full. Not sure on road schedule:

Schedule was included in my season ticket email. Mizzou, bama and UF in a row at home will be a nice home stand in the middle of the season that we will need to sweep. Tennessee at home in the season finale could be epic if the regular season title is on the line.

Seriously, how dope would it be if the lights just cut out, lasers and holograms start dancing all over the floor and then that Alan parsons song the bulls used to play started blaring. Then each player runs out of the Toomers store when their name is introduced
Pretty sure Rod would butcher the intro though

Anyone want to host me for that 1/19 UK game? Time permitting could treat me to a round of golf at an exclusive country club as well.

Midnight Madness at Toomer’s Corner that opening Thursday night/Friday morning with ESPN/SECN covering would be so incredibly awesome.

I’m definitely attending and taking that Friday off if this happens. Do a little pre-gaming downtown prior to midnight and be fully engorged by midnight.
 


not sure what his skill level is but this dude is such a fuggin freak. He's 285 and jumps like this. Also saw a video of him yesterday where he dunked from the free throw line.
