Ugh my man, just hang it up. It's not even entertaining. You're either denying things that the receipts exist on this very site for, or just grasping at straws for some type of relevant post.

Your trolling isn't even sensible any more. Look at this first sentence - a blatant lie and then confusing follow up. Another sentence of nonsensical trash. Changing topics to something irrelevant and obvious. An answer to a question no one asked. Then a wild take with an obvious overlay of pointlessness.

I just want to laugh again. I need the old 72 back. The one with absolute hilarity.

But since we steadied the coaching position and staff with pros, you've kinda lost direction on where to go.

I'll continue to remember the good times. The people manager who knew basketball. That's my 72.

Here's hoping you regain form or get put out to pasture.

Remember the days Blue Man when you told all of us not to feed the troll? You keep throwing her fish.

Wait, is 72 a woman?

I don't view it as feeding the troll. When people take him seriously and respond to his posts, I think that's feeding him. So calling him out for his lack of creativity and incredibly boring posts is OK. LIke Blueman, I laughed at how awesome his old posts used to be.

Don't forget he also had a cameo on South Park. Trolll.png

We all want that person back. Since Archie was hired his posts have been embarrassingly bad.

You missed on the board then a few weeks ago that 72 is she, not him, her.

Also, Blue Man many, many times said don’t feed the troll. Meaning ignore her.

Not sure what changed but he’s feeding her a lot

We have no idea if 72 is a male or female. The only thing we know for sure is he or she is a PC fan.

Go back a few weeks and you’ll see 72 is a she.
I’m sure there are posters who are PC fans here masquerading as URI fans but 72 is not one of them.

I'm confused. You told Blueman to stop feeding the troll but now you're saying 72 is not a troll and is a she? What post proves this? I looked and I'm not seeing it.

Yes. Blue Man kept telling posters not to talk with 72. Now he’s talking to 72 as much as anyone.

I’m not going to go back and find the post where the She came out, it’s a few weeks ago. If you don’t believe me then fine but it’s in a thread somewhere.

I have no problem with 72. In fact, some of her comments make one think about things from a different perspective. Sure some are head scratchers but so be it. Number of posters here have decreased over the years, don’t need to be running any off imho.

No one ever stopped feeding, and with the endless time to fill during the offseason - it does fill the gaps between meetings. I only said to stop feeding because I was 100% convinced 72 is a troll.

I am actually hoping 72 is a troll at this point. Otherwise...woof.

SGreenwell wrote: ↑2 years ago FWIW, this is the post that people are using to identify 72's gender. Frankly, I don't know if they're talking about themselves in third person, or what they're talking about in general. (We've never suspended or banned 72's account, as far as I can tell, so maybe they're talking about the PC Scout board or something else.) Regardless though, this topic is "A10 Outlook for 2022-23," so let's try to steer discussion back to that. Thanks.

Not really a neutral site game. Indianapolis is 70 miles from West Lafayette, IN where Purdue is located and over 400 miles from Davidson, NC. This will basically be another home game for the Boilermakers.

Yes, that's what I thought.
Not really a neutral site by any means.

I’d take this game in a heartbeat if I was Davidson - and they did.

Of course, can't blame them for taking this game,

Probably a decent payday, national coverage against a top P6 program.

Granted they will be a major underdog against a partisan crowd.

That actually brings up a solid question. Are they really getting a good payday for this or are they getting a significantly smaller or non-existent payday because it's a "neutral site game"?

Why would we want to get bought out without getting money? Worst of every world. If they gave us a return game in Boston, Mohegan Sun, or New York then sure, I guess

Because P5 Teams hold all the cards now.

Take these games while you can. Whatever deal McKinnon got I’m sure it was the best he could do.

Not many more years before there is an FBS and an FSC for Basketball.

P5’s and Football Money - Cartel is gaining power so take what you can get now just as McKinnon did with this Purdue opportunity.

He is missing Rhody! We will be in the conversation, book it. Also, not having Davidson on that list somewhere seems wrong as well.

I still don’t believe that we will ever get to FCS and FBS level split - yes the money is getting tough to compete with but at the end of the season the big guys will be playing the small guys in the tournament because that is what brings in viewers. St Peter’s reminds everyone of that. Only if smaller schools start actually winning the championship will we maybe see a split, but that will never happen. Plus one of the biggest college basketball programs (Gonzaga) by conference would be a FCS level school, no way.

Besides viewers, I think the small schools bring bettors, too. I often underestimate Vegas’ impact on college bb and the tourney, especially, as I am not a bettor.

I go back and forth on the potential of a FCS/FBS type split for college bb. I am hoping there are enough differences between the two sports to delay or prevent it altogether.
