2012/2013 Spartan Odyssey ILLINI

January 30, 2013 5:52 pm
So tom izzo was like 5 mins from my house last night......reading the tribune today and it was mentioned that tom izzo was in chicago heights checking out marion catholics 5"8 PG Tyler Ulis.......i been saying to myself evertime i see this kids name in the paper, why hasnt izzo made a run for him....ever since parker chose duke, i was hoping maybe he would take a look at this kid.....about a month ago there was an article about why wasnt this kid being heavily recruited....then everytime marion catholic plays, hes the big story of the game.....and i guess he put on a show last night for coach izzo....i believe he scored 25 .....also would like izzo to keep an eye on these 2 SOPH players from simeon who were playing pretty well at the beginning of the year. Cant remember their names right now, but they arent getting alot of attention playing behind parker and the 2 kids going to illinois....just love seeing izzo in chicago....this place is a goldmine for basketball talent. Seems like every team has a div I prospect. Go sparty

Dawsen shouldnt dribble the ball until he can prove to protect it more. The kids always turning it over. I love the kid but daaaaaaaam he makes me sooooo mad. Lol. Stay by the rim dawsen. I thought valentine had a chance to be as smart as day day on the court by the time hes done here. But it seems like hes regressing instead of improving. He scares me when he dribbles too.

cleaves, he say:  "...just love seeing izzo in chicago....this place is a goldmine for basketball talent."
definately agree.  It never made much sense concentrating so much energy in the cornfields of Indiana (and the killing fields of Saginaw Tongue out)...not that I'm complaining about the results, mind you (see Dawson & Harris.)  Last I heard, both Jahlil Okafor and Cliff Alexander were still warm to an Illini scholly (and MSU, et al)...Sparty cleaning Illinois' clock tomorrow night would certainly help them decide which of the two schools offer more promise.   I noted Ulis was a 3* Rivals (as of NOV12)...for whatever that shizzle is worth.

4 hours after that post, one of my 90' Georgia Pines went down...took out our power, internet, telephone and cable.  Thankfully, we had power back by the time we woke up TH morning...but...cable, telephone & internet weren't connected until 6:30 this evening.  I didn't know how the Snakes did until Friday afternoon.  Dang, you don't know what you've got until you lose it...scarey how boring and out of touch things are without all this technology.  How the hell did we get by...15-20 years ago?

so...Trice is out (for weeks, again?)...Harris is hurtin...Nix is being a lazy, class-skipping dick (sorry, but I think the guy is a jerk...certainly not a team leader/captain...and will be happy to see the big dumb thug gone - with a diploma, thanks to Tom Izzo.)  

Nice to see UM go down...ditto Kansas...and Syracuse.

Yeah H2 ulis was a 3 star i seen....but hes a junior, so maybe by next year he can improve to a 4? All i know is that kid has a huge game every time out. But we could use a lil fast PG. was great to see UM lose....their fans were getting a lil out of hand....but i guess thats what happens when your basketball team has been irrelevant for 20 years. Would of rather had kansas keep winning to help our SOS.
