Cal is going to be put in a ugly position next year if Nerlens, Poythress, Goodwin all come back - he'll still have WCS, Wiltjer , Harrow and Hood.

That will put him over the scholarship limit I think and make Wiggins that much harder to bring in.

He may end up like Pitino did with Roderick Rhodes and make some go pro to make room for next years team.

With the Harrison twins coming in he could afford to have a defensive stopper on the back end like Noel.

Its a good problem to have I guess.

the more I think about it, UK will be scarey next year with the #1 draft pick returning. From UK's standpoing, Noel was wasted on this years team anyways so should he decide to come back...holy shit

That could be Cal's undefeated season dream he wants. I know that's crazy but he'll never get closer than with the team he is assembling next year.

I suspect that is exactly what Crotch is thinking Cal is going to do...

Yes, Noel is a proven commodity, but weren't ya'll thinking Poythress and the other freshmen you got this year were going to be better? What if the same thing happens next year? Everybody doesn't turn out like Wall/Cousins or Davis/Gilcrest. This year proves that...

its possible but Wiltjer will be a Junior, and the other guys have to improve somewhat. I'm guessing Stein will be back.

PG is the key and we should have some depth there next year.

This is the biggest inter dimensional cross rip since the Tunguska blast of 1909.

Now, I may be wrong and my memory may have twisted it but I thought a bunch of you TGP bastids all met up at some destination event (baseball game maybe?) and shared rooms...and someone let off an inter dimensional cross rip that definitely outdid anything in 1909 or this Ural Mountains nonsense.

I filed my federal tax on the 8th, got back the refund today. I think that may be the fastest that has ever happened.

Yeah I don't know why they acted like shit was going to be so slow. I saw the pending transaction in my bank account on January 29th which is before they claimed they were even going to start processing them (my return was processed about a week earlier than that).

All the sweet video of this meteor, plus the entertaining driving in russia videos make me realize that everybody needs those dashboard cameras here just for entertainment value alone.

My accountant said that the federal return was gonna hit in like 7 to 10 days. I didn't check. I give that (and the state refund) to my wife anyway to blow. That keeps her preoccupied so she doesn't tear through my bonus before I get a chance to stash pieces away so I can retire one day.

I did TaxAct and got mine back in about the same time (sent on the 4th and got it back the 12th). The whole thing cost me $25. I had been going to H&R Block and paying them about $180 but no more!

the first half of the St. Mary's-Gonzaga game last night was the most entertaining college hoops I've seen in a while. good thing I fell asleep on the couch and missed the 2nd half as Gonzaga ran the Gaels out of their own gym.

The white dude with the headband and stringy hair for the Zags (Olynyk?) and the Aussie PG from SMC (Valledenova?) are both pretty good. Considering that for much of the game there were 7-8 white dudes on the floor, I'm surprised Crotch wasn't tuning in as well...

Also, why would Noel return to UK to sit on the bench next year? He should go pro and have a chance to start.

I don't have any income derived from partnership interests. My investment structure is not too sexy, honestly, because of what I do for a living. I'm blocked from certain trading, even within my brokerage accounts.
