This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

A big concern for me currently with the recruiting of Paige by BabaGhanouj
is that previously I could see her being a combo guard. With all the incredible reports and video clips coming out of the U17 trials, she may be best suited as a point guard. My concern is that with Gilbert, Nixon, and Peoples, and with the recruiting of Clark and Campbell, there is a logjam, or at least a perceived logjam of talented point guards. Additionally, most point guards, not withstanding Anaya's statement, have a real desire to play the point.
A nice problem to have, but we may be cursed with an overabundance of talent. Unfortunately, I see Paige as special among the specials. It would be a shame to lose her because we have such other outstanding talent.
