r Nobody ever said he was going to win the Pac with it, but it's better talent than Herb was getting. Shannon Evans is a big pick up. Watching Hurley will be interesting.

Hurley at least ramping up the schedule. Helps conference perception when they lose to good teams.

The Kansas model.

Bumping, just in case anyone forgot ASU blows

Thon Maker would be interesting for ASSU

Maker is the only top 50 recruit that hasn't committed. 247 sports lists him as a heavy Asu lean ahead of Kentucky and Kansas. Biggest recruit ever by Asu?



So shady if he goes to Asu though. Was never considering Asu at all until about 3 weeks ago. But Hurley knows his aau coaches or something. Hurley already seems slimy and corrupt.

Maker actually seems like a very likable kid. I'm more shocked about brown ending up at Cal!

Why make a pretense about why Maker might go to ASU? There's the one incredibly glaringly obvious one, where Hurley offers a job to his decisionMaker.

It is exactly what it appears.

Great news for ASU. They need to schedule as many of these as they can.

Kentucky players and fans went "sweet a series with Arizona!"

Then found out that it is asu and said "oh never mind"

UA would never settle for a one and one without a home game in return.

Remeber UK's Bahamas trip last year? ASU is turning into Portland State.

http://www.courier-journal.com/story/sp ... /21806935/

UK's own team expenses were eye-opening, too, from coach John Calipari's $1,550-per night Atlantis hotel suite to a $23,855.50 reception dinner that included a band and an open bar.

The total cost of the trip was $792,845.68. By comparison, an expense report acquired in an open records request showed that North Carolina's Bahamas trip last summer cost $154,825.91. Portland State, meanwhile, paid a total of $37,714 for its seven-night stay.

"I needed professional-level teams," Wildcats coach John Calipari said this season. "I needed men. I needed experienced, physical guys that knew how to play. That's what this team needed, which is different. That's why most teams don't do what we've just done."

UK offset some costs by providing flights, lodging and tickets for 57 UK boosters who donated $6,000 apiece, contributing a total of $347,047.30. UK also received $17,962.28 in ticket revenue. Even with those adjustments, the final expenses were $431,836.10, nearly three times more than North Carolina's entire trip.

They just lost 2016 commitment Lucas Siewert: http://collegebasketballtalk.nbcsports. ... cruitment/

Does Martin steal another California recruit away from the state of Arizona?

ASU is down to nine scholarship players with Roosevelt Scott leaving the program today.

That's OK. If they get Thon Maker, he can play three positions at the same time : C, PF, PG. Maybe SF too, not sure. So they only need him and 2 other guys.

Coaches are leaving ASU too: http://www.azcentral.com/story/sports/n ... /27798297/.

Bump.

No reason other than this should stay visible here.

Arizona State University the butt of 'Ted 2' jokes:

Can't believe no one commented here how they crapped the bed against Sacramento State to start the Hurley Era...

Asu blows. Will be tough to beat them without scoob, Solomon and Wilson who were all key last year.

The theme for tonight's ASu game is "Belmont Stakes Night"

http://www.kentucky.com/2010/08/31/1413 ... nters.html" target="_blank

ASU attendance is at 4,674 avg. for three games.

Grand Canyon University is averaging 5,421 after four games.

Amazing lack of support for a school with the largest enrollment in the West.

If only fans would show up, then asu would become an immediate national title contender-phxcats

But we will get there. They have been piling up higher rated kids for the past few years.
Hurlrey will bring that kind of talent to ASU eventually and we will be even if not better than them.

Watching the Utah @ Stanford game tonight in OT and a lot of fouls. Several players fouled out, others had multiple fouls. And often there was no contact at all. I take this as an indicator of what we may be up against Sunday vs the rats. Sean Miller will be beside himself. I suggest he has a doughnut(s) as they seem to calm him down.

Great weekend for the coaches at ASSU. Stellar coaching jobs. One gets tossed and the other can't count

And as if we needed additional reasons to despise Hurley! So who's going to be the first one to create a 'Hurley Crying Baby' Avatar ala the Tad Boyle one a few years ago? I can picture it in my head now......please, someone do this.....

Did Bobby adopt Coach Madonna's "we beat ourselves" mantra yet?

ASU fan reminds me of the guys at work who think their abilities are elite but all of us but them know they are not.

Is there a "like" button on this board because I'm enjoying all the posts. Hating on ASU is so fun and easy, even a child can do it.

What makes it even more enjoyable are some of my ASU friends and co-workers know how pathetic they are. And others are in absolute denial and are celebrating Hurley's antics as if he made some kind of bold, protesting statement that "we're not gonna take it anymore!!!!"

Oh, ASU. You are the gift that keeps on giving.

Just wait until they come to McKale. Hurley will get thrown out of the game twice! And maybe he'll fistfight a ref at mid court. Fear the Fork!!!

So what's the best ASSU message board for Hoops? Their Scout site is pathetic.....

That's as good as is gets.

Haven't been to Cactus Ranch in years but it was pretty active for basketball....full of UofA hate threads that it.

Thanks Cats101.....not surprising though. You'd think with such a huge hire, serious recruiting momentum, and a good OOC record that their fanbase would be more supportive.....especially after all the years of moaning about Love & Herbie.....but then again, it's ASSU and doesn't surprise me.

Am going to love it when Hurley bolts in a few years for a better gig.....LMAO.

I would bet anything they had similar threads in 2008 or so when Sendek arrived and had Harden: "He will be the one to turn this rivalry around, and before we know it they'll be second fiddle to us." Hell, I'm sure they said the same thing about Rob Evans when he brought in Ike Diogu.

Now they're cheering their coach for getting kicked out of a 6-point game, after cutting that lead from 16 just a few minutes before. The delusion is strong with asu fans.

To be fair sendek had more success against us then pretty much any coach in the last 40 years. Went 9-10 against Arizona in his 9 seasons. Was 6-3 at one point.

Yes, we've seen this movie before. I have to admit, it's entertaining. Especially when the ASU noise reaches its zenith and then is slapped down by the reality that Arizona Basketball owns this state and always will.

Yes Carolina, and it's a really entertaining movie, lol.....This time I predict a different ending.....I suspect 'Premature Ejection Man' will get some good recruits, build a decent lil program then bolt after a few years for a better gig. This will break their hearts and drive them crazy when their subsequent HC 'lives down' to the normal level of ASU.....bottom dweller of the P12 .
