Recap
PFT CommenterJosh Rosen should be eligible for Rookie of the Year in 2019
Josh Rosen or maybe Kyler Murray throwing a rookie connection. Yes, Rosen is absolutely, he should be eligible for Rookie of the Year next year.
PFT CommenterJohn Elway has figured out that his draft mistakes were caused by quarterbacks being too young
So I think Elway's figured it out. So he's learned from his mistakes. He's getting all these tall quarterbacks that aren't very good, but the problem is he's drafting them. So he's had such a terrible record in the draft that he's figured out that the problem is that they were too young.
Big CatYou cannot actively tank in the NFL because players won't buy in
I actually think the NFL, you can't really actively tank. You can't say before the season we are trying to lose because it's such a hard league to stay in for the players. And if the players know that, it's all going to fall apart very quickly.
PFT CommenterThe Giants will not draft Dwayne Haskins because it would undermine Eli Manning's confidence
What I see them doing, I don't see them going for Dwayne Haskins. I feel like in Gettleman's mind, that would undermine Eli's confidence in himself.
HankBasketball players just need to play basketball, regardless of injury risk
This is basketball. It's not football. It's not any of these other sports. Like, basketball players need to play basketball... LeBron, that's what all these players, even Blake Griffin said it himself. You have to play to play. It sounds dumb saying it out loud. You've got to play.
Interview
Ethan HappMichigan's student section is the toughest and most ruthless in the Big Ten
Probably Michigan State. They're kind on top of you at the court. Or Michigan. Michigan, the fans are – I don't know what it is about their student section, but they're, like, ruthless. Like, they'll talk about my mom. They'll talk about acne. They'll talk about whatever it is, just to try and get into my skin.
Big CatEthan Happ will never miss another free throw if he thinks the word 'wet' before shooting
I need you to when you get to the free throw line just say in your head wet right before you shoot just go wet and it just like it will change everything... You actually will not miss another free throw for the rest of the season. Isn't that wild?
Fran FraschillaZion Williamson is the closest thing to LSU-era Shaquille O'Neal in terms of physical dominance
I've never seen anything like him. The closest thing I can remember to Zion is when Shaq played at LSU. And not in terms of how good a player he is, but just the cartoon character nature of this kid's physical dominance.
Fran FraschillaNike will sign Zion Williamson to a $75M-$100M deal because of his marketing potential
I think Nike's going to sign him to a $75 million to $100 million deal because, A, they owe it to him, but, B, this kid's going to sell sneakers... I guarantee you when he's in the NBA, they're going to double stitch those bad boys.
Fran FraschillaDuke will not advance past the Elite Eight if Zion Williamson doesn't play
No. No, I don't. I think this kid is so dominant, guys, that if the world was fair, and it may still happen, but I would vote for him... National Player of the Year.
Fran FraschillaJa Morant is the second-best player in the 2019 NBA Draft and an electric passer
I think he's the second-best player in the draft... This kid is unique because he, I got to say it the right way, he's Trey Young with more athleticism... I'd be shocked if he doesn't go two.
Fran FraschillaFlorida State is a March Madness dark horse because of their incredible length
One, they've been good all year, but no one ever talks about them... that's Florida State because they got like 15 guys. I mean, and they got like seven guys over seven feet. It's amazing... All they did this year in a great league is go... 25-6.
Fran FraschillaMaryland's Bruno Fernando will end up being a lottery pick in the NBA Draft
They have a developing young big guy in Bruno Fernando who's going to end up in the lottery. People don't know that yet because I think our guys at ESPN have him 27th. He's going to end up in the lottery.
Who Cares Its Louisiana
PFT CommenterIt would be more shocking if an LSU basketball coach was not cheating
Again, I would be more shocked if the LSU basketball coach wasn't cheating. I saw blue chips.
Faq
Big CatRaphael is the best and only cool Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle
I'm a Raphael. Raphael was the bad boy who April had a crush on... Raphael was the one who would always get them in trouble because he was such a badass. Raphael was the one, he was like the guy who kind of, the straw that stirred the drink.
