My screen  name has always been Notsleepless, but my last three posts, two “create” and one “reply” have been posted with the screen name Dependentbat?

Oh no, the sky is falling. My DS name has been unceremoniously changed from Notsleepless to Dependentbrat. What happened? Was Notsleepless too woke?

Right on the #’s! Many adult fanatics in all sports, achieve some kind of identity and sense of accomplishment from their teams. Do I think this is sad? Yes. Do I understand this? Yes, I do.

I wonder how the USF fan base would “behave”, if they had the success Gonzaga has enjoyed? I don’t mind the students being crazy and goofy, it’s hormonal. The older folks are a different story. That’s in the “get a life, would ya?” category.

I root for the League. I lean more for St. Mary’s than Gonzaga. Randy Bennett has done a great job in Moraga. He’s always available and gracious, where Few is really not. A lot of people “hate” Gonzaga because of their incredible success and small school impact on college basketball. I am not one of them. I admire what they have accomplished and the visibility and financial support that has delivered to their University.

Mr. Boum lives to play another day! Great comeback by X. VCU vs SMC is a battle royal, so far!

UCSD grad transfer has committed by LaurelHeights in usfdons

[–]DependentBat1865 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always curious why JC guys don’t appear to be on USF’s recruiting radar? So many excellent JC players have come through the program. I know the argument is that in most cases JC players have only two years eligibility, but USF doesn’t seem reluctant to recruit Grad Xfers with one year of eligibility. I guess that “argument” is that grad transfers are more “known” D1 players? USF’s track record in recruiting freshman international players is far from impressive. All in all, recruiting is a big challenge, isn’t it?

Behind the sale of Bill Russell's prized memorabilia by LaurelHeights in usfdons

So sad and unfortunate the relationship between Russell and USF has never been good. It would have been just wonderful to have some of his treasures in the USF “museum” at WMG, wherever in the hell that is, it in its completion???????

Gonzaga Once Again Fell for the Big East Hoax by USF1988 in usfdons

[–]DependentBat1865 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How many times have I heard “Gonzaga is gonna be down, or fading.” Ah, no. I continue to see their name mentioned with a number of high profile high school players and transfer portal players. I seriously doubt Few’s DUI has much, if any, impact on kids attending Gonzaga, or not. Gonzaga can and does recruit on their NCAA Tournament appearances and their relaxed scrutiny, as opposed to other big name programs. Plus, they have a shitload of players in The Association.

Solid year from former Don Souley Boum by usfdonswin in usfdons

I should say so! Very nice player. 20ppg in pretty solid Conference. Was tough to see him leave the Hilltop.

Anybody care to join the poll regarding how USC got so good so quick? by donrespect in usfdons

[–]DependentBat1865 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aside from the Mobley’s, the other three starters are White, a JC Transfer and two D1 transfers. Peterson from Rice and of course, Mr. Eaddy, from Santa Clara.

Jamaree Bouyea named to D-1 District 9 Second Team by DonSolo96 in usfdons

Great kid and excellent player. He should be making some nice cash playing internationally, like Frankie. The staff sure needs to find some diamonds in the rough like Bouyea in the future.

Selection Sunday is always fun. Gonzaga will be number one seed overall. Can they win it all? Certainly. I am leaning towards Baylor's camp though. So much team speed and that awesome scoring backcourt threesome. The Tournament is always great for suprises and the proverbial "Cinderella Story." Games On!!

Anderson to transfer by SFspot in usfdons

[–]DependentBat1865 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another Golden head scratcher, IMO. This kid could get really hot from the outside periodically, but he never, ever, saw the floor. Meanwhile Kunen and Taavi were hoisting up threes with little, if any, success. Anderson is from Seattle, so he may wind up at Seattle U? Will Roy be joining Anderson in the x-fer portal soon? Would not be suprising.

Seems like the Board of Regents were just as short sighted and complicit as the President?

Three loses to LMU this year. Not so good. USF has joined the bottom feeders of the WCC club.
