You conveniently left out Skip's history of bringing every possible 6-4 swingman who hadn't developed his basketball skills versus Butler's recent history of bringing in PLAYERS who could actually win an NCAA game and/or beat teams like Wake Forest and Wisconsin handily. After 7 years, my patience with Skip had run out. Did you want to give him another 7 to win an NCAA game? -- XAVIER MENS BASKETBALL

[> [> Darnell Williams, James Posey, Lloyd Price & David Young are the swingmen Skip brought in. Your swingman theory might need rethinking. Skip won 1 NCAA game in seven seasons, that is a fact. The swingman theory is not fact, just gibberish. -- hc, 19:43:21 07/08/01 Sun

[> [> [> ---"The swingman theory is not fact, just gibberish."---Are you using Lloyd Price as an example of a swingman who DID develop his b-ball skills? He couldn't dribble, shoot or make a good decision to save his life. Young is an unproven commodity at this point. Sato's a talent, but shot 38%. Keith Jackson is, by all accounts, a physical talent but very raw in terms of his skills' development. Skip's teams were always more crowded at the SG/SF positions than any other, sometimes to our detriment. -- GMG, 10:37:56 07/09/01 Mon

[> [> Thanks for proving my point, by avoiding the subject of Antonio Smith. You lost me with the swingman tangent. He is a power forward - center. In fact, in 5 years, he will be a senior, and the old fogies who are praising him will be clamoring that he is not a legitimate big man. You prove to be a hypocrite again. -- The Factor, 18:20:38 07/09/01 Mon

[> [> You must be a government lawyer. You introduce Skip's 1 win in 7 years as new evidence. I will counter with the fact that the world is round. Smith still sucks on paper, and you know it. -- Clown Hater, 22:18:58 07/11/01 Wed
