OT: Lets make it happen for Bruce

[x-iceman-x]

just watched an episode of AU Basketball Everyday that I had recorded but never watched. The Bruce talked about how much he loved errythang about AU and honored to be our coarch. That guy really does love Obbern a lot.

But anywho, he said fir his legacy, he didn't want/need a statue, a street, a building or gym named after him. He talked about the main entrance to the Clam (ftr he didn't call it the Clam) but said for his legacy, he'd love it if we named the main entrance The Pearly Gates. That would be badass!

He has no LEGEND to follow in boogville. Should get whatever he wants & more. Can't top the SUMMITT, but that's in the rear view now. Like why would Dibo leave Clemson is along the same lines. Master of his Domain at AU....

Aww man... I love me some Pat! I don't think anyone will ever surpass hers as far as legacies go at UTk. Pat Summitt was greatness incarnate. The 9 for IX Pat XO was one of the best ESPN specials I've ever seen. She was a great coach, sure, but she was more than a coach. She touched and changed a lot of lives throughout her time on this earth. She was one of the gooduns. If you have never watched it, go to YouTube and give it a look.

It’d be a really cool thing to happen but no way the super Christian conservatives ever allow that to happen. They’d name the arena or court after him though

Why not? He left the Jewish faith for
Christianity. You also say that as being a Christian conservative is a bad thing. pump the brakes.

Didn’t say that at all. But I’d imagine most Christians would regard the Pearly Gates as sacrosanct and wouldn’t allow it bc it possibly trivializes part of their core beliefs

 

[MomentInTheSun]

Make some t shirts with the idea but I guarantee there’s never gonna be a school funded iron gate called the Pearly Gates that allows entry into the arena.

I think Bruce said it as a joke anyways

...Amen corner and all

Did he? He seemed to be celebrating hannukah. Either way, if BRUCE wants it, anyone standing in his way can EAD.

Messianic Jews don't often just walk away from Judaism. I don't even think that's a requirement.

 

[MomentInTheSun]

I don’t know if Bruce converted, but he definitely still tweets very often about Israel and it’s donest and foreign conflicts. He absolutely hasn’t given up his jewish heritage

 

[Denim Vest]

Pretty sure Bruce is all Jew. His wife probably not and going to church is a chance to impress all the hicks in Boogville.

Once you step in the church of highlands as a messianic jew, you're not welcomed back with open arms. As most jews, their link is through heritage and not temple. Why 70+% vote liberal.

I doubt Bruce cares. Dude is a Jew and can spin the dradle and have a nativity scene on his mantle and all they can do is stew in their awesome sideburns.

TBH, it shouldn't matter to any followers. If you're an actual christian, all that matters is doing good works for christ. I was just trying to share the reasoning behind what he is doing.

I believe he was just giving an example of how he wants to be remembered. My opinion is to give him what he wants.

We thought they would never hire a Jew or a black AD.

I went there with someone as they begged me, most awkward hour I’ve ever spent in my life, and I’m religious.
