More like "gracelesstoyou" when it comes to people who disagree with you about sports?
Aaron Torres says Calipari making a "colossal mistake" for not recruiting Mgbako.

I think you're onto something here. Why add an athletic small-ball four when we have a need for one on our roster? I bet you're cool with rolling out that Oscar/Bradshaw frontline.
Good stuff all around. Why move up to the modern age when we can continue with an antiquated 1997-level Miami Heat offense?
When scouting reports talk about big men as good shooters they’re usually talking about mid range and in. Because centers don’t typically take 3’s. If he was a good 3 point shooter he would have made more than 8 in 4 years of high school. I looked for his # attempts and couldn’t find them but i didn’t look that hard.
Collins actually had nice looking form on his outside shot and even made a few early in his career but i don’t think he made another for nearly 2 full seasons.
I suspect bradshaw will take a few early, miss them and then stop taking them just like collins. There’s nothing to suggest he’s going to be a legit 3 point threat. Assuming he will is just blind homerism.
Peep his join date. That dude followed Cal from memphis. He’s not a Uk fan. He’s a university of calipari fan. There’s no bigger Calipari stan on the website than that one and they’re proud of it.

People criticizing Bradshaw aren't basing it on any first hand knowledge or scouting report.
Kid was plenty aggressive in the McDonald's game.
Bama had 6'10 Fr Noah Clowney playing the 4.
Seemed to work out OK.
You're correct on that yes. 19 of the last 20 champs(or something like that) have been in the top 20 in both catagories when the tournament started.
Lol, the scouting report I mentioned literally said he was good out to 3. That's what scouts have been praising him most for lately.
Sure seems like you could find some scouting reports that dictate otherwise, if true.
He attempted 5 3's his whole senior season.Scouts are talking about his future potential years from now in the NBA.
I think we can certainly count on a kid who made 4 threes the entire season at Camden to only up that number under Calipari's system, where Cal loves to spread the court and allow his subpar three point shooting 4 men the freedom to sprinkle threes from deep.
Good call, man.
He was interested the first go round. Everything is just pure speculation, I dont think there is even a quote out there from him other than the one he put out about re opening his recruitment. So nobody knows really why he left Duke for sure, and nobody knows if he is truly interested in coming here. Pure speculation.
Careful, man. If you prove Leadbelly's arguments to be faulty, he'll run off and create six new user names as a result. He's like the Zerg in that game called Starcraft. If you defeat one account, he just spawns six more.
They are talking about his current ability to step out to 3 for his future ability?
There’s nothing to suggest Bradshaw is going to be a reliable three point threat in his likely one season here.
I mean, i hope i’m wrong because i’m convinced Cal is set on starting him at the 4 and it would be nice if we had a 7 footer that could consistently hit open 3’s. But given what we know, it’s extremely unlikely.
He took a couple in the mcdonald’s game and missed badly if i’m not mistaken.

I think he's a fan of John MacArthur, but even Pastor MacArthur would take him to task for his brutish tone.
Now that is a name I never thought I would see on this board.
Because we saw the 3 of Bradshaw, Wagner, and Mgbako play on the same high school team and that team became better when mgbako didn’t play, pretty simple.
His first attempt in the game was a catch and shoot splash from outside (counted as a 2 because he had a toe on the line) and his 2nd he was fouled on the 3. I mean, if you are fouling guys on 3 pointers, you obviously respect their shot, which is really all we need.
Yeah who needs a modern stretch four who can shoot it outside.Let's count on a guy who took 5 attempts all season.
Cal is really going to start Aaron and Ugo together this season isn't he?You just have to laugh at this point.
What are your thoughts on why the NJ scholars were a better team when it was just Wagner and Bradshaw as opposed to Wagner, Bradshaw, and Mgbako?
He’d be a perfect fit for our roster but I think you also have to look at it from Mgbako’s side too, he may not want to come here and play the 4 even IF Cal pitched this (which he wouldn’t). I think he’s gonna go somewhere where he can play the 3 and be the #1 option
Yeah, basically. Ready for the lifetime contract to expire and move on with my life. We are all UK fans.
He's a Cal homer. Bringing up the old Cal to defend the new Cal. I'm sure some IU fans did the same thing with Bobby Knight. We all know what Cal has accomplished. He's not that guy anymore, but keep bringing it all to the table while we finish 3rd or 4th in the SEC, and go out of the tournament in the 1st weekend. Keep defending it.
All boils down to whether he's good or not.
Doesn't matter how many threes he makes.
If he plays himself into the lottery in 24, then I don't think anyone will be complaining.
He's been bad since the UNC loss if we are being honest. Good years in 2019 and 2021 (eh). An argument can be made he's been bad since april 2015. I mean losing in the 2nd round to Indiana?
That’s McArthur’s website - gracetoyou.com
Best known for his tone when it comes to Bible teachers who he disagrees with (the majority of the time he is properly calling out false teachers), Calvinism (though not nearly as over the top as Piper), and pre-millennial dispensationalism (an end-times theology that has made lots of pastors lots of money, but really seems to many to be a gross misinterpretation of Revelation and other prophetic passages).
Also, he’ll be irrelevant soon and also can’t live a whole lot longer.
People act like its a one way decision. This kid showed he did NOT want to compete for minutes when he opted out with Duke. EVERY single Cal signed has said Cal never promised starting spots to players, only a chance to compete. MM doesn't want that. Why would we chase him?
I just don't understand why people are bashing Bradshaw before he ever steps foot on campus. And before you ask for it, I'm not going to regurgitate the multiple posts doing it. Go find them yourself.
The only cult is the Cal haters. So you were right. They did gather. Good call.
