Had to listen to the radio again at a volleyball tournament. Loved the win.
The kid got what he deserved, but hopefully that will be it. The school can't take punitive action against him as a student because of his 1st Amendment rights, but they can restrict a privilege like attending bball games. The punishment would have likely been more severe if he had hurled something dangerous on to the court.
I feel bad for the young man. We all do stupid things and most did really stupid things when young. We just live in a world where the margins are thinner.

Plenty have said much worse in that student section. His misfortune was having a hot mic

When does Purifoy make his way to the end of the bench permanently? I want more Jaylin and Cambridge.

When he was a freshman, I thought Purifoy would be an NBA draft pick.
He’s a solid role player at times, but his game has not really expanded much during his career.
He helped us make a final four. Really good free throw shooter.

Best thing for him is to not be identified publicly and start attending again after graduation

I suppose I should have clarified. I know life is too easy as we have the time to constantly find ways to be offended and now have hundreds of genders that one can think up and get angry if not identified as such. Our great struggle as a society seems to be a hurt feeling.

He had 3 huge consecutive FTs in our win today.

Oh I'm sure its not over, someone will raise a stink about it and I would be the kid gets expelled for it.

We should really move on. No one is changing anyone else’s mind on this subject.
Went back and watched some highlights. Jaylin had a really, really good game. He’s going to create some real matchup problems for teams down the line. I really want Devan to step up from a consistency standpoint... he’s got so much potential.

And he made 2 steals. Not bad for a poor defensive player.
I was at the game Saturday and I’m not going to knock any of these players as they all contributed and worked hard on D.
We need them all to help in order to win.
And J Williams definitely needs to play more now. He has a good sense w those long arms to in deflecting inside passes. I think his offense is still going to be erratic but he looks like he’s got that twitch that he wants to score anyway he can.
Including a drive, I’m going to shoot, wait no I don’t, Ohhh I’ll just throw it up there, oh oh bad shot but I’ll follow it in and... look I can stuff it in.

I think some are just more confused about how he seemed to leave a lot of potential undeveloped.
Nothing against this young man, I am just kind of surprised he did not turn into something much more on the court--- although I guess that was more about my assumptions.

DP has contributed to our success.
I imagined a way brighter future for him when he was a true freshman.
I guess my expectations were to high.
He’s solid.

I have not said anything negative about DP.
I just thought his upside was going to be incredible when he was a freshman.
He’s a solid role player and I’m glad he can to AU.

I’m still confused why Jaylin hadn’t played much until recently. All of a sudden his defensive presence and length is an X factor going forward.

He made a huge difference in the intensity on defense yesterday.

It will be fun to see Jaylin Williams play with SC and hopefully JG next year. Would be a top ten type team

All year, I’ve wondered the same. I get there are only so many minutes to go around but I’ve been concerned that he might want to transfer out. Someone with his ability shouldn’t be wasted. Maybe there are things we don’t know about..

That's all I could think about after the game yesterday. Even if Jalen goes to the league, Cooper + Jaylin is going to be a nasty combo.

I would rest easier if we could recruit one more big man in the 2020 class
