My Take on Barnes

My mood goes up and down by the hour. Earlier today, I felt good about it. Right now, I feel sick about it. I think that a couple days of optimism is going to come back to bite my in the butt and the fall will be rough. Oh well, it was fun thinking we had a shot.
 
I missed this thread...where did KG talk about Brackins Senior year still being up in the air!? I don't see any thread titles that allude to it.


He said that from talking to Brackins, he thought the chances were better than before that he might come back. Still a long shot, I think, but maybe not impossible.

There wasn't, ole Kg said that he talked to ole Craig, and that he now thinks that it is 50/50 whether or not he will be back.

Got to love that optimism, there Kg, especially since it was "just a feeling that he got" from talking to the star of the team right before the season started.
 
It has nothing to do with tomorrow.

Anyone who says that Barnes coming to ISU is a 100% chance is an idiot, because nobody knows for sure except Barnes and his mom.

It doesn't affect your status as a cyclone to be realistic and realize there is a chance he goes somewhere else.

You are basically just laying the foundation to throw a tantrum tomorrow when he declares for someone else, and it is irrational.
So then anyone who says ISU has no chance is also an IDIOT?

Nothing like being called an idiot on a message board.
 
Duke does not have an undergrad business degree (like Harvard, Yale, Colmbia), most students choose to get an Economics degree or earn a certificate through a Sociology degree. Most top universitires feel making a more rounded student through a liberal arts degree is best before focusing on "core" business courses blah blah blah where is Harrison Barnes going?
 
Dream about Craig being back next year all you want but you'll be wasting your time.

wish in one hand, crap in the other??? I'll have excrement all over me, but it would be worth it if brackens stayed!
 
What I want to see is all six coaches present for the announcement with the TV cameras on them when HB makes it official, just so we can see the reactions!:biglaugh:
I think McD could hold his own against the losers.

You're in a good mood today. Top of the morning to you!

that makes sense. I mentioned the Duke business college as a reason HB would go to Duke to a coworker who is a Duke grad and he looked confused when I said it.
 
Any Clone that doesn't put him at a 100% chance to us is probably a squak with a clone user name.

I've been called plenty of things in my life, but that might be the worst. I can assure you, I'm not a hawkeye...that makes me shiver just typing that.

As is pointed out later, it is just rational thought of the actual facts at hand. Your statement would be correct had I said that I wasn't 100% sure I want him at ISU, but it is clearly not 100% that he'll come to ISU.

sure it is.
 
How are you so sure? I'd love it if you were right, but how are you so sure?

Would you be willing to shut down your CF account if you are wrong?

Ok, now that I have seen the cybookie, i put my $ where my mouth is and bet my entire $3.5MM credit amount. how 'bout that?! all in, as the kids like to say.

edit - uh, ok.....i just looked at my bet, and for some reason it only recorded 3 credits, not $3.5MM credits.....now i feel like a *******.
