Suggestion for Rodney

Donate To GopherHole
hahha name some dpodoll, your prolly gonna say some kid from alabama a&m is better then him, really, hes not that bad. If he was the main focus of our offense and took more than 4 shots a game he would score more.

And if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle.

I never said he was "that bad", but to suggest that he's anywhere near the top 15% of SF in the country is ludicrous and asinine.
 

its really not though, can you think of, out of the couple hundred small fowards in the country, like 30 that are better than rodney, all im asking

Define "better".

Are we talking about who can jump higher or has longer arms to defend or has the best dunks in garbage time?

Or are we talking about things that actually matter like scoring points, getting rebounds, etc.....you know....actually contributing to the team's cause?

"Small forward" is also hard to define because of the versatility of a lot of players depending on match-ups from game to game.

There are probably at least 50-100 better players and that might be conservative.

Nice try "badger" Vandelay. Rodney (in fewer minutes) beats Mike Bruesewitz in every statistical category. Last week you said people calling Rodney "athletic" made you want to barf. Seriously. I know you'd love for someone in the national media to call your (red) team athletic, but it's never going to happen. :cry:
 

blake hoffarber, not a 3, perry jones, plays the 5, CJ leslie, 4, marcus morris, 4/5. i can pick that list apart. thats like me saying ralph is a 3, trevor is a SF, and hollins is a 4. cmon now. legitmacy.
 





A lot of those rivals rankings are absolutely absurd. I love how much they overrate UNC players just because they play for UNC. Henson is number 9 for PF while Terrence Jones is 10 and Trevor is 12. Barnes is number 8 for SF while shooting under 34% from the field and under 28% from 3.

I can't complain about the love for us on there though.
Tubby: 21
Blake: 17
Trevor: 12
Ralph 23
