[mofome]

good to have ya on. bol tonight.

[MoneySportsGuy]

dear goodness not another Louisville fan. yeesh .

welcome to the forum TP and goodluck in your wagers.

[TPowell]

wow I never see any other Card fans online outside of the scout forums. Sweet!

[Louisvillekid1]

What's up TPowell!!!! Welcome to the forum, how bout those cards baby!!!!! You from Louisville? Post at courier journal at all??

If I had to play all those games, I would be on everyside you are on except for Rhode Island.

GL tonight, pretty soon we are going to need a subforum for louisville fans!!!!!

[TPowell]

well I grew up rooting for Rick Pitino when he was at Kentucky and I guess I bandwagoned Pitino to Louisville, but I love Louisville now in every sport. From winning BCS Bowls to going to the College World Series. I actually live close to the Kentucky-Tennessee border. I post here at times

www.louisville.scout.com

[Louisvillekid1]

Pitino finally got our boys clicking, we are showing why we were preseason top 10.

[TPowell]

yep, if we run the table and win a couple games in the Big East tournament we should be a lock for a 2 seed

@ Pitt
Villanova
Notre Dame
@ Georgetown

[Louisvillekid1]

Its going to be a hell of a tournament, and I like how we are just now sneaking into the polls and flying under the radar right now. We get zero respect nationally and I guess that is just never going to change.

[TPowell]

yeah I love how pollsters love to leave us out, but Vegas always seems to ALMOST overvalue us. Also Mike Marra committed today to Louisville. He's widely considered the best pure shooter in the 09 class

[Louisvillekid1]

Yea he looks solid. I hope we land either tyreke evans or scotty hopson, any word in kentucky about them? I just don't see how we have this many roster spots open. We already have a solid class.

[Louisvillekid1]

Oh, these guys are all cardinal fans!

Im forgetting somebody.

[TPowell]

Tyreke is Memphis bound, Pitino basically quit recruiting him a little after the drive by shooting deal. I dont see us getting Hopson either to be honest. He does mention us when people ask who he is looking at though. He failed to mention Big Blew though

Oh Pitino watched some big Serbian guy who is about 7'0 for the 08 class as well. Who knows where that will go though.

[Louisvillekid1]

They need another shooter for this upcoming season. Is this swoopshire kid any good?

[awhitejackson]

I like this card a lot... Im all over Dayton, Oregon and AZ for a unit each..

I am leaning on Minnesota -8 (Dont know whether this is a bet for team or against Beilien )

My big play tonite is ND for 2 units though..I just like their homecourt play., (was going to put 4 units until Lvillekid went Pitt..Hes usually pretty sharp on Big East games) GL..

Welcome to forum!

[TPowell]

well with Swopshire, he's 6'7 and only 190 pounds. He is supposed to be a great shooter who can also shoot off the dribble well. The downside to the kid is that he doesn't quite have that toughness and he is not a very good finisher around the rim, probably due to him being so light. He reminds me a lot of Francisco Garcia when he arrived at Louisville. I think Swopshire will be a good 4 year player, because he is going to have to put on weight if he wants to be a consistent player at the 3 spot. He's not quick enough to play the 2, so thats his only option really. The kid has a lot of potential plus he is already a good shooter. I'm excited to see him in a Cardinal uniform, like the rest of the guys we have signed. I just hope and pray that 5 star forward Terrence Jennings makes the grades because he is an athletic freak at 6'10, 225 pounds!

[Louisvillekid1]

Its going to be a sick front court again, even if DC leaves (which he would be crazy to do). George Goode should be eligible and our two 5 star recruits. They should make an immediate impact. This team is going to be a final four contender for several years to come. Im guessing samuels is probaly a one and done, but still.

[TPowell]

CRP has said he expects DC to leave after the season. College life just isnt for him because he JUST wants to play basketball. Even said DC might go to the D-League and work his way up from there. Obviously Pitino always seems to say the opposite of what he means, but I believe that he is going to push DC out the door after this year unless something crazy happens. Samuels may or may not be a 1 and done. He's really too short to be a center in the NBA and I think he is a little too slow to be a 4 right now. He might need 2 or more years to really turn himself into a power forward.

[Louisvillekid1]

Thanks for the inside info my man. I live in jersey now, and im always on courier journal and rivals.com but recruting info is hard to come by far away.

[MoneySportsGuy]

man all I see is Cardinal red

[TPowell]

lol yeah, btw I changed a few units on some of the games. Basically Pittsburgh rises and Georgia Tech falls

[Louisvillekid1]

That's what its all about , everyone will be on the band wagon soon. They also have been a money making machine lately. I think they are 12-4 ATS last 16 games.

[TPowell]

btw Notre Dame is 0-3 ATS wise in their last 3 home games

[Tigers1230]

HAHA, nothing but cardinal heads on this thread

[TPowell]

[Louisvillekid1]

That's why two of our biggest rivals had to show their face!

[TPowell]

so where do you guys make your bets at? I hadnt even though about that

[Louisvillekid1]

Right now Im using Bet Jamaica, how old are you tp?

[Tigers1230]

haha, That dude got the shiznit slapped out of him by niles!! Funny too bc. UAB can't even spell.

[TPowell]

17, 18 in August

[TPowell]

I think the purpose was to call them by their true name, MemPISS

[Tigers1230]

cmon now. Don't start bashing Memphis like most people. I know I know, everyone always hates the best team in the nation.
