Maybe we should think of changing the spelling of his first name in the headline to the correct spelling. That's embarrassing to see on the front page of this site.

I'll have another one of those kool aids, please!

I was gonna say the same, but decided to bite my tongue.

How the **** does that happen? Good lord.

Best guess: Extra attention to ensure "Batemon" is spelled correctly ("mon" not "man") and missing first name forest-for-trees.

Thread title and story lead correct, story headline still incorrect. Perhaps it'll get revised at some point.

Auto correct from all the time he typed Demarion Watson if he was using his phone??

My phone does that at times. Or maybe just a brain auto correct after all the years of D Wat?

The written word is his job, right? No self check before submission?

It’s a one letter typo from a great contributor who provides great content to a basically free site. Get off your ******* high horse.

That's one area of my personality I have been told I need to work on ... biting my tongue. I always respond by saying, "bite this."

Well, the young man sure doesn't look like he will need much time in the weight room. Fellow looks built, not like a HS teenager.

I know we *need* at least one of these freshman to really hit this year to reach max potential but I don’t recall this level of positive press and comments from TJ, and a player like Lipsey before.

And tempering expectations with a bit of patience, but this is highly encouraging.

Just change it to Make-mon.

Milan was the last freshman with this type of hype. And before him Hunter. Batemon may exceed both though.

Hopefully by January, we're calling him, 'Treymarion'.

Rob and this site are great. Typos and mixing up thoughts/players happen all the time, especially given how many words he probably writes on a given day. Fixing this typo takes little time and helps the site look more polished and professional. Not to mention potential SEO ramifications. Surprised it hasn’t been fixed tbh, it probably should. All can be true.
