jeff goodman is reporting that the emotionally distraught arizona head coach had the following paranoid conversation with his pool guy trevor (an arizona grad) this morning at his catalina foothils home (which is at the end of a cul de sac of a mediocre cartball course):
trevor the pool guy: "mr miller, would you like me to sweep the pool steps today?"
sean miller (putting down the 2 glazed with sprinkles donuts he's eating for breakfast along with a zero coke): "what the **** are you talking about?...you think we lose twice to wisconsin and now cal is gonna sweep us next season?...quit ******* with me"
trevor: "mr miller, all i'm saying is..."
sean: "look pal, i'm know exactly what you're saying, do you think i'm ******* stupid?...that cal and that bald azz coach is gonna be the new alpha dog in the pac 12...trust me, i hear exactly what you're saying...if you don't like cleaning my pool, you should get the **** out of here and go clean the pools at asu"
******************************************************************************
josh gershon is now reporting the following tense arizona staff meeting from the bowels of mckale this morning:
sean: "what's going on with you ugly dumb azz clowns?...did you watch the mcdonalds game, allonzo trier jacked up 20 shots, what's up with that?"
joe: "coach, i think..."
sean: "shut the **** up, joe, don't talk unless i ask you to talk, ok?...you're the dumb azz who told me to jettison tyler dorsey and his little league dad for trier...if i wanted a guard to jack up a million lousy shots a game we could've kept td"
damon: "coach, what does jettison mean?"
sean: "shut the **** up, damon...you really are stupid, where did you go to college?"
silence in the room
sean: "look, all i ask is that you dumb azz bitches get me 3-4 basketball players a year that all they wanna to do is play basketball with a basketball on the basketball floor, is that asking for too much?...it's not like cal or stanford where you gotta find guys that can actually read and **** like that"
sean scarfs down the final chocolate glazed donut with fuchsia sprinkles from the double sized box
sean: "if that bald azz guy in berkeley gets his program ahead of my program next season, you sorry broken down candy azz soft clowns are gonna be busing tables at the applebees on craycroft"
miller storms out of the room & the door slams closed
damon (shaking his head): "you got yours printed up?"
joe: "yeah, i'm a step ahead, mine will be ready at kinkos at 5:30 pm today"
sean miller needs a yoga practice#
********************************************************************************
jason scheer is reporting that tucson is a dump & that sean miller had the following heated conversation at his catalina foothills home (on a mediocre golf course for chunky cartballers):
amy miller: "come on sean, put down the maple glazed donuts and come swim with me and the kids"
sean miller (looking at his bloated belly while taking a couple more bites): "that doesn't sound like any fun"
amy: "sweetie, things aren't that bad, didn't you out recruit cal for one guy this year?"
sean: "are you ******* kidding?...mark ******* tollefsen?
amy: "fine, throw a pity party for yourself"
sean: "trust me, i will"
sean (petting his dog lute on the head): "lute, you're really my only friend, how do you think next season is gonna be vs cal?"
lute (wagging his tail): "ruf"
**********************************************************************************
adam schimdt is tweeting he overheard the following angry interaction from the bowels of mckale this morning:
athletic director greg bryne: "sean, gotta be honest here, i'm a little more than worried about your stress levels and behavior these days, you're cursing at your staff daily and gaining a lot of weight...jim and arte are concerned too"
sean (wiping his mouth with his arizona golf shirt to get the red & blue sprinkles off his lips while picking up another donut): "what the **** are you talkin' about?"
greg (with a sigh): "why did damon leave for basically a lateral position at memphis?"
sean (talking with his mouth full): "who knows, who cares, him and josh always had some weird **** going on, anyways we don't need any more guys from the northwest to be successful"
greg: "do you think you'll be able to beat cal 3 times again next season?"
sean picks up the dunkin' donuts variety pack box in front of him, tucks it under his arm & walks out while slamming the door...he really, really likes them variety boxes, he's multiple that way
seasons change, people change, the balance of power in the pac 12 is changing, sean miller is never gonna change & stop eating them heart attack hand grenades, he loves them dunkin' donuts...who knew that huf is the lead singer for future islands?

when kidd was with the phx suns, i used to host j, the team's assistant coach frank johnson (later become the head coach before losing too many games & having an affair with the also married wife of the suns largest corporate sponsor resulted in him being fired (kidz, that's that's the quickest way to throw away a promising career) along with my close friend the now deceased dr gary mack (the team shrink...counseled j on marital issues with mrs crazytown, joumana) at my summer club in flagstaff, forest highlands (which is considered the augusta national of arizona)
j told me during one of our rounds together that his final college list included kansas, arizona, ohio state & kentucky with the jayhawks probably the leader despite his never actually ever visiting lawrence...he started playing in informal pick up games at harmon organized by his friend monty buckley...j told me there was a defining epiphany like moment when walking thru a grove of trees near the creek north of harmon with his gear bag over his shoulder on a beautiful bay area afternoon that it all came together for him
kidd realized how much he loved his mom anne & dad steve and that he wanted to share his college experience with them...it was that simple in jk's mind, he never even made an official visit to cal, there was no need to do so
so j played in front of his mom & dad and friends at the #1 public university in the world before moving on to generate $200+million in nba earning before recently being named the head coach for the brooklyn nets
i last saw j at whisper rock a year ago & he told me that he's never regretted his time at cal...he cherishes the collegiate memories he shared with his parents, dad steve died in 1999 (real talk, our parents will not love live forever and our time with them is limited)
fast forward & another top player in the usa from oakland is faced with similar choices/opportunities
what are your priorities in life, ivan?

the coaches aren't enthused because of the dunk, they're excited because of the king's development with post interior moves/footwork prior to the throw down
this foto illustrates the difference between the cal basketball program & virtually every other program in the nation...all of our coaches (including the strength & conditioning coach) are participating/encouraging on the floor, physically competing & demonstrating teaching moments live
they are not sitting on a stool eating donuts with a whistle around their neck while yelling instructions at a player, no that's not happening in berkeley, california

charles o'bannon, a 6'5" 190 lbs top 40 player in the 2017 class from bishop gorman high school & the las vegas prospects, has been offered by coach martin
o'bannon got serious length (and is still growing) along with lethal behind the 3 point line shooting skills along with a solid mid range game...charles is multiple like the guys in cal's diamonds are forever class (2015)...he's working this summer on both his d & ball handling skills
charles is a highly coveted national recruit with ucla (dad & uncle played there), arizona, kansas, uconn, unlv & louisville (wyking) all targeting the articulate student athlete...but only the #1 ranked public (#3 overall) university in the world offers an elite combination of academics & basketball in a family environment along with ideal weather in the diverse & cosmopolitan bay area
yeah, o'bannon would be a strong fit with cal's touch the sky class (2017), he's no lupe fiasco that's for sure

sat tonite next to jerry, a childhood friend of coach martin from growing up together in the east st louis housing projects back in the day at the coors event center in boulder during the bears mentally tough victory on the road
jerry told me that coach was a way too tall catcher in junior league baseball & that he would trash talk (but with zero profanity) to the hitters the entire game...young cuonzo would relentlessly say stuff like "this guy got no bat, he's gonna strike out again" to jerry every time he was batting
he also told me that everyone respected & feared coach martin's mom sandra, she raised her kids with love & discipline...jerry told me getting on the wrong side of ms sandra was not a smart move

flew into cabo san lucas sat nite, met my buddy tommy at the airport & we took a taxi downtown for a late nite dinner at gordos...gordos is a one room restaurant with maybe 12 chairs that serves the best shrimp & steak tacos on earth...the owner takes your order, cooks the food, delivers the meal to your table & then sings too...gotta love gordos
so we hit some range balls to loosen up this morning & hustle over to the 1st tee with our caddies at diamante's el cardonal, tiger woods' 1st golf course design which recently opened
but there are already two groups of fatboys standing by their golf carts (some of them smoking cigars) near the 1st tee, they are all wearing stanford gear, red shirts & hats...clearly they are a stanford group of some type
so the director of golf assesses the situation & walks over and tells the leader of the group, "my apologies mr winchester but we have 2 golf magazine raters who have both played the world's top 100 courses that are invited guests of mr jowdy (the developer of diamante) and it's very important that they both tee of first this morning in order to walk 36 holes today, please stand aside"
mr winchester is ******* pissed and barely nods his head ok...the other guys are grumbling & shuffle off the tee box
so tommy & i step onto the 1st tee as does mr winchester whose got his arms crossed, he's gonna see how good we are, there's gonna be wwiii if we slow down his two groups
we both blast tight draws down the middle of the fairway & hand our drivers to our caddies jesus & javier who are ready to roll
mr winchester has got smoke coming out of his ears & is looking at me with stink eyes
so i smile at mr stanford showing lots of crocodile teeth, lock eyes on him & tell him "go bears" with a wink as we head down the par 5 1st fairway, never looking back

tigers woods continued his abysmal play with a 80-76 to miss the cut at the us open at chambers bay
tw is not in a good place mentally, he needs a yoga practice to become more balanced...the difference between good & great athletes is often in the mind...several of the cal basketball players had exceptional games last season but didn't bring a 100% effort on a consistent basis, that's gotta change this season
i dunno, maybe tiger & the donald could design a golf course together, it could be named Dumb Azz National
concordtom;842508166 said:
here's a theory for you, see what you think:
Tiger was not only misbehaving with the ladies, but he also used PED's to increase his physical abilities and beta blockers to calm his nerves while standing over putts. The PGA knew about this but since golf revenues were through the roof, everyone looked the other way. After his sexual downfall, so came about the PGA finally moving forward to put the clamps on his illegal drug use. And thus, you have an ordinary washed up has been. He couldn't do it without the help.

jaylen hands, a dynamic 6'2" 155 lbs point guard from chula vista & a top 20 player in the 2017 class, has been offered by the bears staff
"cal has done a great job of recruiting this year and that's something i'm looking at"
-jaylen hands
jaylen had been considered a ucla lean with arizona running a tight 2nd position but let's be real here, there's a new national powerhouse program in the united states with much stronger academics than both ucla & arizona that's located in the cosmopolitan and diverse san francisco/oakland bay area
jaylen hands would be a potential dynamic impact leader for cal's touch the sky class (2017) to assure the current upward recruiting trajectory of the california golden bears basketball program:
cal's monster class (2013)
cal's doses & mimosas class (2014)
cal's diamonds are forever class (2015)
cal's howlin' at the moon class (2016)
cal's touch the sky class (2017)
cal's unnamed class (2018)*
*the vision is jordan brown, elijah hardy & ideally marvin bagley
jaylen has got a busy summer schedule trying out for the team usa squad starting on may 28th & also playing for the compton magic aau team but still intends to unofficially visit berkeley with his dad ronnie who knows coach wyking jones from playground games growing up in inglewood back in the day
the bears staff will be most successful when all 5 coaches (coach martin, huf, tracy, wyking & nicodemus) build relationships with prospective recruits & their families...these 5 guys comprise arguably the most likable & hardest working collegiate basketball staff in the nation, a staff that will compete with anybody including coach cal for any recruit with academic ambition in the united states
some valuable recruiting lessons were learned (from my perspective) this year in chasing guys with overly involved dads/selfish position demands like tyler dorsey & bennie boatwright and guys who lack the necessary academic ambition to flourish at cal like brandon sampson (no ncca qualifying score) but obviously the diamonds are forever class (2015) has transformed the #1 public university in the world to an epic turning point on the basketball court that even pudgy noted donuts expert sean miller has conceded that cal could win the national championship this upcoming season
this **** is getting live
do you got your season tix(s) at haas?...why not?...man, you don't wanna be like that lupe fiasco
this is cal basketball#
the university of california, berkeley=#1 ranked public (#3 overall) university in the world

my dad has always encouraged my sister & i to pursue our unique dreams in life, he told us we could accomplish anything that we set our minds too if we work hard enough
he gave me my legal middle name of sherlock because of his lifelong love of sherlock holmes (he always referred to our house address as 221b baker street)
we had the following conversation when i was in 4th grade on the way to harmon for a bears basketball game:
shocky: "dad, do you really think sherlock holmes is a real person?"
dad: "yes"
shocky: "well how come we've never met him, how do you know he's real?"
dad: "son, it has been said that the heart understands things that the mind does not begin to understand"
shocky: "what does that mean?"
dad: "shocky, it means we're going to get a chocolate sundae at ghiradelli after the game & that i love you"
i love you dad too, dad
