Wow. If Skip Mills is first team and Peyton Stovall is anywhere near back in form how does Ball fall to #4? Or is Stovall toast for the year? And by the same token Lindy's has NO UT playes on first ofr second team but has us first in the West. A tribute to Stan's coaching?

Excuse me...you used the words "Stan Joplin" and "Coaching" without including the modifier "piss poor"...please rectify this oversight.

Yeah, but the man can recruit incredibally average 6'4" look alikes like nobody's business. We got about ten of them every year. And most of them stick around for all four years. Dam!

Ouch! You really know how to hurt a Falcon hoops fan....

Well, as for the Dam! at the end-having them stick around for four years is not always a good thing. Can you say Haris Charalambous?

It's unclear to me, but I think you meant Damn! But then again perhaps you did mean Stan Joplin and UT are like a dam, they act as a barrier and don't allow their players to pass for four years. Or may be you meant it in the much less often used sense to say that Stan the man is a dam, meaning motherly figure. If either of those word usages is the case, then kudos to you for the outstanding word play.
