Herschel Walker: Ambassador to the Bahamas

M
Life is never fair. I have never been in an organization or team where someone did not think someone else was better than I was.

President Trump was the best President in my lifetime, yet fifty million Americans voted for Biden in 2020, and about the same number voted for Harris in 2024. This is unfair, but you can't legislate a law to correct this.

Biden out people in his Administration who did a TERRIBLE job on the border and Internationally. He lost trying to be politically correct. If a company hired someone unqualified instead of me, they lost. If a team thought a player should play instead of me, it showed in their record. It does not matter their race, religion, creed, sex, or sexual preference; they need to hire the best if they want to win - period.

Except for the release of the Wuhan Flu, Trump was the BIG winner in his first term. If Trump wants to hire Walker, you can think it is a DEI hire, and that is your right. However, as President, I figure Trump is ten moves ahead of everyone else. There may be more qualified people than Walker, but no one on this blog has shown me that they know enough to judge someone that Trump has selected.

They were quicker, dominated the boards and had length which tells about their athleticism. They can shoot and dribble which tells about their skill. They were much older which tells about their physical maturity and experience. Myles and Cam have not shown the ability to dribble the ball when defended from a triple threat position. Can they dribble if catching off a screen, diving if setting a screen or slipping if previous screens pulled the D in anticipation? How many dribbles are needed to get inside the lane and score? Sure they are what they are right now assuming them not doing such is due to their lack of confidence or ability. Purdue has them THIS year. Can Purdue help them become scorers and more involved in the offense NOW? There is plenty of time to see if any growth takes place in different players before the season ends. Personally, I think Purdue can help them hide what appears to be an inability to drive the ball when starting from dead stop.

Well sure they can get better, but handles need all summer to improve. We discussed just a few dribbles to get to a closer spot for a jump shot or I suggested the Loyer floater. We’ll see if Painter allows or coaches them to do so. For that matter TKR not always turning his back to the basket, rather sometimes turning and shooting a face up jump shot. I know he can do it. Prevent the defense from knowing exactly what he will do.

Will be interesting how the committee looks at this going forward. SMU and IU weren’t the top 12 best teams. They may as well do top 24. Would be a better way to determine it

So then why play the season if losses don't matter? If we are just going to go off opinion? Just begin the season every year with the playoffs and nothing else matters.

Yes, we have agreed on this before. We run the play, and Heide or Colvin get to the spot, and if open, they shoot the three, and if not, they keep making the quick pass. It is here where they need to do what you suggest. Either fake the shot or fake the pass and get past the defender to go for a layup or a jump shot. Loyer is the only one who consistently does this, but the other should also.

2024-25 Purdue Transfer THREAD

Exactly. The coach talk may be, we see you as a valuable member of our roster but we will be bringing in a third starting caliber QB to be as competitive as possible. Some of these kids either shy away from competition or equate $ to their perceived value to the program and will sell themselves to the highest bidder.

I'd go after that psu transfer Pribula, Mabrey Mettauer Wisky who got an offer from Ark in 22

Heide and Colvin are what they are. They can jump high and sometimes grab some nice boards, but not often. Heide gets to the hoop and makes an awesome dunk, but not often. They both can shoot threes, Colvin seems more streaky, Heide more consistent, but they are mostly catch and shoot. Neither has the handles to get their own shot and they aren’t miraculously going to improve their handles during the season. They can’t dribble through a press. They are Purdues “athletes “. Look across the floor at Auburn. Athletes with superior quickness, can shoot , dribble, get to the hoop, block your shot and go coast to coast. Guards that are six-six,six-seven doing this, quicker than Braden. They bring a six-one guard off the bench who scores 18 off the bench when it counted. Fluke? No, he scored 20 vs Duke. They probably had 6 or 7 guys more “athletic “ than Colvin and Heide, and they were also skilled too. Painter values skilled. I think Purdue needs one of these type players next year to go far.

Diversity is fine. Blatant racism by the use of color of one's skin or by the genitals of the person is not. Keep on letting the left tell you that you're not good, nor smart enough to succeed through your own hard work and you'll continue to fail.

Since you haven't presented your case that you're a part of the solution of which you complain, then you surely must be a larger part of the overall problem.

So why is it ok for unqualified whites to get into college or employment over qualified blacks?

There is one piece of tape that all but the big three need to study. And maybe I have to study it too because maybe I added to it in my mind. However, it was when Burgess received a pass a second too late, made the fake, and had a doable but slightly contested three. Instead, he drove past the defender defending the three, and with three dribbles, it was a dunk. It was a play that Colvin, Heide, and Waddell could easily do, even Furst.

Interesting in that I never counted his dribbles, but have reference before that Myles and C am should be capable of two dribbles and that should take them inside the lane where they "should" be able to elevate for a soft shot. I mean that was pretty common a few years ago...

In the fifties, blacks were conservative, and their divorce rate was low, and church attendance was high. And as one previously posted, Congress unintentionally reversed all of this, giving extras to single-family households and the false impression that blacks cannot make it on their own.

Such a true statement, though I believe it was not unintentional; that it was indeed a way to make dependents to the democrat desire to continue slavery in a different form.

I guess whites couldn’t make it on their own either. The welfare system participation for whites are very close to or even greater than the welfare participation rates of blacks.

How are you going to have a so called melting pot when y’all do not want diversity?
