Brian Bowen to...Louisville?
- Thread starter DerekMcPwn
- Start date
Wow if you're that close to him do you supply hand towels for him after hours in Italian restaurants?
Didn't Pitino say a couple weeks ago that their final scholly would not be used? It's not like him to lie.
Bowen must like whores, probation and the 2nd round of the draft. Different strokes for different folks.
There is a student by that name but it doesn't have any other information to go along with it so no one really knows if its him or not.
Cal only beats Rick because he insists on playing with freshmen while Rick has juniors and seniors! No, wait. Let me try again. He only beats him cause he has more talent, and everyone knows it's not the head coach's responsibility to recruit better talent! No, wait. I'll try again later....
If you're good, work hard, get better, it's doesn't matter where you go. The all NBA team is full of guys who went to schools who didn't produce a bunch of NBA players. Curry went to Davidson, Deandre Jordan went to Texas A&M. Durant Texas, Thomas-Washington, CP3-Wake Forrest, Draymond-MSU etc. A player sets himself up for a great pro career not the coach, a school/college coach can do nothing for you if you don't put in the work on you're own and work hard, any former player will tell you that
Not totally correct. Cal should have one that one in Memphis if it wasn't for a lucky shot. Being at UK or any blue blood helps a lot though because you get to pick the best of the best now so instead of getting one OAD talent a year you can get three
Guess Rick promised him that starting spot, which will end up with Bowen playing 12 minutes off the bench and causing chemistry issues.
Have fun, Cards.
Have fun, Cards.
Would love it but I'm not counting on it. Rick probably gets a few games suspension and they get a year probation, maybe. I'd be shocked if they got a postseason ban.
Not a real shocker you would think this makes them a better team. In the real world I think UofL is now probably a top 20 team as long as they don't have any chemistry problems develop. And adding Bowen doesn't do anything to help them in the paint which will be their weakness.
19 teams better than UL??? Come on, hating UL is one thing, being a moron is another.
Every media outlet has them somewhere between 5-10 and that's before adding a top 15 player.
They do have a 7'0 top 25 recruit coming in as well. I'm assuming he will help in the paint.
Yep there will be plenty of teams better than them. And Malik Williams is 7'0 and 200lbs so I don't see him doing much in the paint at all. Next time you want to call someone a moron at least try to have a clue yourself.
Couldn't this be another Brian Bowen ? There is some kid named Brian Bowen on Twitter that is a UofL student. Is this all they are basing their info on ?
As far as Bowen going to Louisville, I don't understand why he would go to Louisville when they are stocked at the wing with VJ King, Deng Adel and some other transfer, can't remember his name, but he sat out this last year.
They need help at the 4 and 5, not the 2 and 3. They have no depth with the bigs now. It makes no sense for them or Bowen.
If you add up titles from blue blood programs or second tier programs it comes to around half of championships won since the late 40's. If you add the amount of basketball oriented schools to it, it's almost all of them.
My point is that's not a coincidence. And Cal won his title at kentucky, the blue blood. He fell short at smaller programs. I think I'll consider that the program giving him the extra push.
Florida, butler, and Gonzaga are outliers relative to decades of the games being played and the typical outcomes.
It takes a great coach, but a great coach needs a great program. Otherwise guys like Cal wouldn't have chosen the path they are on. It would easier to just stay put, if it was.
Looks like he will announce his commitment to Louisville tomorrow. I'll be amazed if it's any other school.
Of course you have to work hard and improve. Unless you're a fantastic elite of the elite talent, still absolutely matters where you go...Crazy to say otherwise.
You can pick out exceptions to virtually every rule. Doesnt make it not the rule.
This is reminiscent of UK football fans who say "you don't need 4 and 5 stars to compete!!! Look at Randall Cobb!!!" Just misguided

My understanding is that he does not like the type of "whores" used by LilBro. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
I don't think the whores got them anything and that it was more about whoremongering for its own sake. There are plenty of better cookies on tap than whores even for far lesser programs.
This one isn't about crooked so much as squeezy. They just be nasty like that is more than 90% of it.
It would almost be worth it for him to go to Louisville just to see dirty bird nation change their tune about having elite one and done players. I'm sure if he was to leave next summer and get drafted all those clowns would be talking about how great it was to have him in Louisville for just that one year and that he's L1C4 for life.
He sure not going to win a championship here because Cal could get him to the Pro's but that's about it, Cal sure can't Coach
Heard Paul Biancardi on the radio say Louisville is more likely to go deeper in March than Kentucky. Part of his reasoning is Louisville has "a top 10 class coming in." I'll say the same thing to you about this kid that I muttered to Biancardi: Pitino isn't K or Cal. The next time he has a freshman, let alone multiple freshmen, producing at a high level it will be the first time. They may be great - if they are, it will be because of what they have in the sophomore-junior-senior classes.
After the 2013 season, the pundits have been overrating UL and picking them to go farther, except for 2015. And they haven't do so once.
