Tailgate spot secured. C3 just south of Center Drive near the new commuter CyRide bus stop.

Great coaching. I don't know who deserves the credit, maybe it's a team effort. We've seen great improvement from big men pretty much every year. Condit, Jones and Ward.

I dont think it's coaching. Jones is a senior who's played in the program for 2 years previously. The 3 things I've noticed the most is his body transformation (more chiseled...athletic looking), footwork, and playing within himself. Those particular things scream more hard work and film study on his part than coaching, not that coaching hasn't played some factor.

The dude literally went from the WORST player buy a country mile in conference play to a top 30 performer. That kind of jump, given the circumstances, is pretty much unheard of. McCullar took a jump but most of that was shooting and aggressiveness. If he wins conference MIP it would be a damned shame. Jones should win it running away.

For ***** sake you're insufferable. I can't wait until the mods drop the hammer again

Coaching has definitely been a big part of Rob's development. So has his work ethic.

I have a really bad feeling we’re going to lose Pav after the season.

Learn how to use the block feature, dunce. Instead of doing that I'm sure you reported me like last week.

Everyone on this board thinks you're an asshat. Just quit already

We all saw your posts on opponents message boards. Disgusting.

Also not sure how that's insufferable when I said I think Rob deserves most of the credit.

Since you can't seem to figure it out, that's not a slight on TJ. If you hate all my takes quit bitchint and complaining and use the ignore feature.
