Fred Thomas will start from day 1. That is if he makes it here. It would be huge if we could somehow land Pollard.

the fact that Stansbury is indeed the reason it's like this. Hell, some people still dont want to admit how bad Polk left things for Cohen- they will maintain that Stansbury was going to sign Pollard for years and years because they dont want to admit they were wrong on how bad the situation actually was

I hope Ray does well at State and shatters all of the records set by Stansbury however I don't want to hear that it is Stansbury's fault if we suck after four years under Ray. Cohen seems to finally have us headed in the right direction but it is way past time to let it go with the Polk blame. There is a shelf life on that stuff.

that wants to say anything that isn't "Stansbury is the worst human being on the planet" must, I repeat MUST begin their comments with something like "Let me start by saying that it was definitely time to go in a new direction with regards to coaching" or else they will be ridiculed relentlessly by the masses here. Yes group-think is mandatory. Having a different opinion is not encouraged. F'n sheep.

With Rick Stansbury:
PG-Gray-very talented and gym rat - CAN'T FIND ANYONE TO GIVE HIM A SCHOLARSHIP NOW THAT WE CUT HIM LOOSE.
SG-Sword-AL POY and also great talent - ON BOARD WITH RAY
SF-Hood/Pollard-You will not convince me otherwise that Stans would have done would it took to keep him and throw in the Mcdonalds AA - NO AND NO. HOOD ALOMST LEFT BEFORE HE EVEN SET FOOT ON CAMPUS AND THEN AGAIN IN MIDSEASON. IF POLLARD WAS EVER GOING T SIGN WITH US HE COULD HAVE DONE IT IN NOVEMBER
PF-Wendell/Ziedaks/Ware- weak ]


no one can say 'what' would have happened if Stans had been given another year. Not me; not you, not anybody. BUT these are 'considerations:'


- Gray seems to be 'more talented' than our 'new' PG and he had already signed with Stans. Last I saw, he committed to Texas Tech; so, guess we will see 'who' was/is the better PG.


- Glad Sword, AL POY, is coming BUT Stans recruited and signed him.


- Hood gave every indication that he was coming back 'before' Stans left and even tweeted 'he was coming back to lead the team.' Again, NOBODY can say 'if' he would have come back.


- Pollard has been recruited by Stans for years since he was in Jr high; had us in his 'final' three BEFORE Stans left. Your statement that 'if he was going to sign with us, he would have done it in Nov' is pure biased speculation. HE DIDN'T SING WITH ANYONE IN NOVEMBER. He has told EVERY school that he wasn't going to sign in November, so we were still in his final teams UNTIL stans left.


I support State, no matter 'who' the coach is and really hope that Ray gets us back to the dance. And, I hope Ray and staff recruit the talent to get us there. One thing that Stans did better than any other MSU coach not named Babe was to bring in talent. He was a tireless recruiter since he joined Williams staff ~20+ years ago.
