Good for you. Pick a D3 player over a 35 year season ticket guy. I don't see the love for this kid, sorry. He would be lucky to play for VU. So you are giving up your tickets after 35 years? That's odd. Otherwise, this comment makes no sense.

I prefer 2 wings, a breast and 2 thighs.

The kid has no business on this team though. I am optimistic we can finish top 5 of conference. I just got to stand by what I said about the Bobe situation. I won't talk about it anymore, I will just discuss the games.

So ............. who is it you claim is picking a D-3 player over a 35-year season ticket holder?

I get the feeling Wild Bill doesn’t like Bobe’s Pizza? 🤔🤔

I get the feeling Wild Bill doesn’t like Bobe’s Pizza? 🤔🤔 Actually, you're way off. Bobe's Pizza is great. I believe it rivals Turoni's. I just think Gage has no business on this team, especially an extra year. I will just blame it on Lickliter. If I am alive next season, I will once again buy season tickets. Oh, by the way, if y'all want a good Bobe's Pizza, get the Farouk, it is really an amazing pizza.

I’m not the biggest Bobe fan, but the kid was loyal to UE and came here as a walk on and from what I can tell busted his ass everyday to earn a spot. In my book, that earns some level of respect . There’s lots of walk on’s in basketball programs all over the country. To say he doesn’t deserve a spot is a little asinine in my opinion. And refusing to buy season tickets because he’s on the team? That seems a little Cray Cray, but I could be wrong. Give it a rest and support the team. Unless he was banging someone’s wife or something? I mean good god Wild Bill. Time to move on.

I gotta say, if anybody lets Gage Bobe beat them out of playing time, Gage Bobe gets what he deserves.
However, about the roster as it's been discussed here and in other published places, it at least appears as if a real team has shown up for the drills. That is different from some of the so-called "recruits" who never seemed quite ready for anything except occupy a seat on the bench and gather 'round during time-outs. only to transfer out to some other pasture without ever actually shooting a layup.
Players and coaches need to try to remember -- this is the Purple Aces, is a damned legendary team. Not to rub this in, but Gage Bobe appears to believe in that.

It's not a little Cray Cray, it's a lot Cray Cray! To openly brag about giving up 35 year season tickets over a single player is certainly not the look of logic that Wildbill seems to think. It's personal and it's bizarre. Bobe is on the team this year strictly due to the decisions of our current coaching staff. Not Lickliter, not some fantasy parental bribe or anything else. Our staff believes he brings value to our program. You can either support the decisions of our staff or not. Apparently you don't, so why are you coming back next year to the same staff? Since you won't be following the team this year, not sure what you can add to this forum. I think I have already warned you, but in case I didn't, we are done with your non-stop Bobe bashing. If you're not watching, then you can't opine or critique his performance. Nothing else matters. An old man obsessed with attacking a college student is simply creepy. Real simple..lay off the kid or go away, your choice.

ATP, you just silenced me. Thank you for the following quote: .....I gotta say, if anybody lets Gage Bobe beat them out of playing time, Gage Bobe gets what he deserves.... Fair enough of a statement...I am done with it. You won't hear a word about Bobe from me anymore. Scout's honor

Looking forward to Meeks Madness coming up next Tuesday! Home opener against Miami just about a month away. Has Vegas put a spread on the Eutectics game yet?
Also, the volleyball team will finally be in town this weekend for matches against UNI and Drake -- 2 of the top teams in the league.

I'll say this I didn't think Bobe was a D1 player. He proved me wrong last year. The kid might not have the most talent but he does have the work ethic. He busted his ass for his chance. You have to give credit where credit is due. Hopefully they all have their chance this year and they all start kicking some ass.

I took a short break and return to the same old Gage Bobe bashing silliness. Good grief! At some point we have to state the obvious. At least one of us grew up throwing a fit in the grocery store checkout lane because mommy wouldn't let them have a ring pop.
Gage Bobe will get as many minutes as the coach thinks he deserves in furtherance of the goal of winning games. Full stop. What a ring popper thinks about it will never be part of the equation.

My take on Gage,it's obvious he was better than the other players based onhis playing time.Hell I remember when everyone was in a uproar because Blaise left the team.And where is he playing now?.

Hey, checkout lanes ... that's where the fun is.
