I also hope Yarber stays, he is key to recruiting. So Cozzetto is going to be the OC, hope he has acquired a few more people skillls since he departed us. I do think DE will be a winner very shortly at ASU.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769884.post-1165864417084788022006-12-11T11:13:00.000-08:002006-12-11T11:13:00.000-08:00Dentmon didn't start because Romar was fooling aro...Dentmon didn't start because Romar was fooling around with initial matchups. We started 3 forwards and Oliver was the lone guard.They didn't work too well and Dentmon was never in sync coming off the bench. The achilles heal of this team is the inexperience at guard. Sure Appleby isn't a newcomer, but he is at best a sharpshooter, not a defender. Defense of course will improve. We took kids like Brandon Roy, and Bobby Jones for granted on D. Those skill don't come overnight.<BR/><BR/>Not sure what to think about Barbosa, but plenty of kids are tripped each year as fall backs so it isn't unusual, what was unusual were his comments which are not in sync with any other recruits experience over the past three years.<BR/><BR/>Frankly we have higher rated LB's with excellent interest still on the board so I wasn't surprised that they are making him wait for an offer that may not come.<BR/><BR/>Tormey at Idaho?<BR/><BR/>Tough to say, I am sure Idaho would be interested, but like Erickson he wouldn't stay if offered another job. For Tormey it could be a way to get back on track. Idaho is now in the WAC so it is a much better job than when he left. As you remember they were in the Sunbelt when he was head man.<BR/><BR/>Lappano? He isn't going anywhere.<BR/><BR/>Yarber? Being a Vandal alum he could have a shot if he wants it. I would be more worried about him heading to ASU, but Cozzetto is going to be the OC down there, so any move would be lateral.<BR/><BR/>Is Idaho a graveyard or a cradle of coaches? Most people who coach at Idaho move on to much greater success so the cradle label still works in my opinion for the right coach. Holt, and Cable were mistakes who shouldn't have been considered. Idaho needs to look to the Big Sky for a guy on his way up who spend 3-4 year there. They also need to pay more money if they expect someone to stay.<BR/><BR/>Which LCD did you buy, and what size is it?John Berkowitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02506119469461963535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769884.post-1165845589845838252006-12-11T05:59:00.000-08:002006-12-11T05:59:00.000-08:00Yes congrats to the Vball team.

I was amazed by the posters at Dman who were shocked by results of GU. Like you said, young versus seasoned team, we have a long way to go, but fortunately, you can teach talent, and this team is very talented. Didn't realize Justin Dentmon didn't start, wonder if that affected his motivation when he got in, so who started at G; Apples and Oliver? Another pretty good showing on the football recruiting front so far. Slots are filling up fast and candidates are starting to become scarcer. Really wish we would have explained to Barbosa why no offer, but its not too late to correct that with a phone call (we are full/waiting on another/you r next etc). Still need 5 OL/DL plus 3 S/CB to round out this class. Not bad considering our record the past few years. JohnB, you once said Chris Tormey wanted another chance, do you think he would go back to Idaho as HC? It could be a graveyard for whomever because of BSU success and jump to Div 1A. Lappano also could be a candidate there (alum). Hope Yarber and Lappano decide to cut the apron strings with DE and stay at UW. We need coaching stability. Love my new computer/ broadband/ wireless etc plus new LCD TV. Christmas came early and we got what we wanted.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
