Aaron White will be a solid NBA player

Just give it up. Nobody on here hates White. They are just saying his ranking in the ESPN Top Freshman rankings are skewed because some of the higher rated freshman have not gotten playing time because they are on much better teams than Iowa.

Pretty sure all Iowa fans know White is good and are looking forward to the next 3 years with him here.

you must have missed or ignored the part that said "he is not as good as the ESPN report says becaus other freshmen are not playing" but if you acknowledge that you wouldn't have much of a point other than the one at the top of your head,

Do not put words into my mouth herby as I clearly did not say what you quoted me as saying.

i am not the one stammering on here and getting upset by what i said about the kid.
lets face facts ESPN said some really nice things about White and the response was he is NOT as goood as they say because of this excuse or that excuse, they can't stand it that i called them on it. I am very comfortable with my view and others that are in better position to compliment the kid, to those that say he is to slow or unathletic to play a position, wait and see he has his so, jr and sr year to go, and then determine if he can or cannot play a position or the game in the BT.
my feeling are mellow and content, it is the others that need to relax not me.

Hey Herby, ever notice how some people on this board are just button pushers who love calling people dumb. I can name them, acl20, g of btt, sec 136, tskinner, etc. I agree with you.

i agree, but they are so full of crap they have to use both holes to get it out of their bodies.
but i guess since they don't know which part of their body to use it makes sense

I am still waiting for one citation of someone calling Aaron White a bad basketball player. Show me that, and I'll leave you alone forever. Cross me, and I will haunt your dreams!
 
like you do? it was fun children, but know i shown you up for wht you are, button pushing loud mouths
the kid has a very good chance of making it to the NBA after his senior year

Where's the quote Herby?

It's time to put up or shut up. You put up, I'll shut up. Easy as that.

not aurgueing with that, but it get old as they constamtlt tear a kid down with no real reasoning of stats, and like i said he did not start till the 2nd half of the BT season, and even with avg'ing 25 minutes a game in the BT season he is avg'ing just over 21 minutes a game for the season, it would a different story had he avg'd that 25 mpg for the whole season to see where he would be ranked on that list, and White also plays the spot that is the most loaded, that alone is the telling stat that shows he is that good

Jeezus Christ, no one is "constamtlt tear a kid down" Herb. Are you really that dense that you can't decipher what they're saying? Aaron White is NOT a top 15 freshman in the country. He's not. No matter what drivel you spill......he's not. AW is a good basketball player and I'm very, very glad that Fran got him, but for God's sake he's NOT a top 15 freshman. I can't believe how you can't grasp that there are many players better than AW that aren't seeing playing time b/c of the team they chose. For awhile there your posts were entertaining and comical. Now they're just sad.

There is zero evidence to support the claim that there are many freshmen better than Aaron who are not playing right now.

That doesn't make it wrong. and it doesnt make you a hater but it can't be argued as a fact. You can argue there are many taller, faster, more athletic, fatter, dumber or whatever else, but you can not state your claim if many better as a supportable fact.
 
the question is are we having season next fall? and next fall?and next fall?look around the world , what do you think is gonna happen?

Who's acl20?

And to be fair, I don't think I've technically called anyone dumb.

Yes, if only there were schools before college where basketball was played, then we could create summer basketball programs and tournaments where all the best players from these imaginary schools played basketball against each other. We could then supplement these imaginary AAU games where future college players played with recruit ranking organizations who ranked the play of said future college players.

Sadly though, since none of these imaginary things exist there is ZERO EVIDENCE everybody!
 
The thing is, about 1% of college, division one players make the NBA each year. That's a rough estimate but I'd say it's pretty accurate. There are other players beyond that 1% of college players who are still great players, if you are in the top 2% of something I'd still say you are great, just not good enough.

Fact is, the NBA is a very hard league to make, incredibly hard. You can be a great basketball player and never, ever sniff the league. For whatever reason Herby doesn't get that.

White could make the NBA, it could happen, but the number are against pretty much any player to make the NBA. It's just that hard to do.
