Bay Area Tiger

Is this Jack Pellicciotti a legit Freshman prospect then for the Shinnick rebuild?

Towson gets it done today. Matthews rushes for over 100 yards. Hunter runs one back on special teams. Daddy Warbucks gonna lose money today betting on Monmouth!

Goh Tigers. Give them a game!

Always loved seeing the players pushing the big laundry carts and helping.

Out her in Bay Area there is talk of a new procedure that is coming sooner rather than later where you will be able to recover from an ACL tear in 2-3 months. I know I know that sounds impossible but I’ve been speaking with a University of CA surgeon who said they are very close to a procedure with that quick turnaround.

Jake Shindel tweeted it was a Grade 2 ACL sprain. Assuming he meant tear. Damn ACL. Sucks for Watson. The show must and will go on. Step up freshman!

Had to go Hunter. His cousin lives in my neighborhood who is also from Culpepper Virginia. Got my sweatshirt ordered and will wear proud here in Bip City aka San Francisco. Sept 2nd is right around the corner. I’m excited for the Shinnick era!

Caught up with a buddy who attended the same college as the Wash State 🏀 coach and they recently spoke about losing players due to lack of NIL 💰 He said he lost a player to Villanova for like $500k and another player to USC for like $250K. This is the coach that built a pipeline from Australia to Saint Mary’s and now has built a pipeline from Africa to Wash State but still not enough to truly compete. Wonder when these so-called regulations may kick in for all the NIL stuff that has been kicked around.. guessing they wait until after 2024 when all the major conferences shake out with their new members etc.

So nice to see Paar on the floor. He can really help us this season off the bench. Um Lowery looks a lot bigger than 6’6” to me. He’s gonna cause some trouble for teams in the open floor.. let that kid run and be athletic. If we stay healthy and this teams molds we could really surprise some teams in conference. So glad May is with us… no way I see him going through a Sophomore slump.. he’s my pick to really take his game to the next level.

Please no Spokane!

When I was attending Towson State we had a club hockey team that was very good and those guys really knew how have some fun parties. This whole Canada trip was great for our freshman. 2012 we need to start looking at flights soon… this could be the year!!!?? I’m buying.

I’m good with players shooting a bit more than they normally would and taking on tasks they may not come regular season. Auditions right now for minutes. We are gonna need someone to knock down them 3’s consistently from the perimeter…. losing Conway sure does sting however the show must go on… what perfect timing with this Canada trip to get ahead of the curve and figure things out. No more Towson bombshells this season.. we should only average 1 a season. None of these guys should be butt hurt with minutes going forward after this trip. Everyone is getting a fair amount of minutes in these games to show what they can do.

Awful all around and I had both my sons read about it as a teaching lesson last night. My 18 year old who is playing football at a JC right now first thoughts were.. “he could be innocent but one incident like this has messed up his entire life on and off the court. His face is all over the news and we don’t know anything about the accuser and may never will. It’s all messed up. I’m having nothing to do with any girls while I’m in college period.” Mind you that coming out of Covid here in San Francisco we had a huge HS sports scandal if you can call it that where various athletes were accused of inappropriate behavior.. verbal or physical and school after school had a protest of sorts by current students. He honestly never had a girlfriend of any sorts during HS because of this whole mess as most were scared they’d be accused if they even texted someone of the opposite sex. Where am I going with all this I don’t know. It just sucks for both parties and the University. Before social media we had the Quintin Dailey saga that shutdown the entire USF basketball program and I have current friends who attended that school at the same time and said it was consensual and was more of a love quarrel gone bad etc. It is so damn tough to grow up in this current environment with social media etc. What an awful situation all around.

Awful timing when we have been pushing the GOH initiative and saying how great are athletes are. One bad apple doesn’t ruin a bunch but makes it tough to raise money going forward. Hope this turns out to be less worse than it reads.

This sucks. Ugh

Heard Mitchell Marner may be attending

Awesome job as always Mat. Let I remind everyone that back in the day we never had insights to our team like this. 👏 My only concern is that Conway wasn’t playing… hope nothing significant of course. With Watson now it is so key to have Conway healthy and ready to knock down open looks.

I think this is great and I don’t read into it too much. This is about Skerry getting a difference perspective of this team. You see things differently at times away from the bench.

Watson & Thompson… could this finally be the season!!?? 🕺

1204 yards in a legit California JC League. Ton of D1 talent playing there.

Only a 45 minute drive to Wrexham. Play basketball and watch soccer = heaven

Zeke Mayo of the Jackrabbits is a baller. A win in Sioux Falls would be huge this season.

Yes indeed. And Jerry was the 4th outfielder.

Former Expos Jerry White coached my son in HS baseball. Andre Dawson was his roommate. Have heard Expos stories past two seasons. Can’t get enough. Love to see a team back there.
