After 3 incredible years at Tulsa, I have decided to look for more money .
As all of you know , GREED isn't gender specific and I really don't care
what kind of degree I earn .
I'm gonna be honest, if the mods of another board offered me $50k to post there and not here, I'd ditch you losers in a heartbeat... But I wouldn't do it for $500, so you have tradeoffs. And I wouldn't go to the OSU board for any amount of money.

Youth soccer club

I agree; it seemed like there were far fewer older teams, and none of the top TSC teams participated.

You can be quite amusing sometimes. A rainout led them to cancel indefinitely. Did you speak directly with the Directors at Solar, NOKC, ESC, Renegades, BVB, or OEFC? I have coaching friends who have faced similar situations in baseball and soccer. I’m sure one year has caused some issues, but many of the NOKC club parents who publicly complained on Facebook after that still sent their same teams from out of town.

I have some questions:
Why don’t these teams attend the WSA tournaments?
Which of the Nine WSA intra-club scrimmages, with an admission fee of $800, should they participate in?
Can I criticize a "non-profit" that significantly supports a university known for financial misconduct involving its founder?
It’s all justified because there are 40-foot praying hands in front of it, right?
Who wins out on girl players now NL is there, Rhein bros or Praying Hands bros?
Will WSA be pissed when Tulsa finally makes the right move dismisses Rhein broskey #1?
Will Rhein broskey #1 go back to rocking out as the Bixby's head coach and achieving two semifinals in 13 years?
When Rhein Broskey #1 is dismissed, will TU be allowed on Bush's hallowed self-named complex? Will it then be self-before-side?

Blitz's tournaments seem to be growing slightly, but they still aren't of the same caliber.

Is there a group of referees holdouts due to a lack of support? I’d love to know who is spreading that around?

Our games were set for Monday and did not change. I didn’t hear anyone among the teams mention any issues. Granted, I mostly interact with the younger teams, but you make it sound like it was everywhere.
Again, last Spring , it rained for like 15 minutes on Sunday morning and they canceled the remainder of the day after the 7:30am time slot at Scheel's and Barry threw the owner of the complex under the bus.

And for the record, I am not a WSA guy, I'm not a TSC guy, nor a Blitz guy. My son played at TSC for many years and finished playing fo Blitz. While I disagreed with a lot of the stupid petty politics about why x kid got moved up and others didn't at both places, I can say my son always had solid coaching and he played with good groups of kids which made for a good overall experience at both. He considered moving to WSA one year and it didn't feel right to him (his words, his decision).

That said, you're 100% right on a lot of your WSA analysis of tournaments and the Bushes. I worked with Ryan at ORU and he was a lot easier to handle than Roger was.

Delanie Crawford

Poindexter wasn't even drafted in the first 3 rounds. There's only 12 teams and there were some additional compensatory picks but you're only looking at 40 players being drafted at most. And some of those draft picks were international players who didn't play US college basketball. Crawford, while a good player for us is nowhere near the level of the WNBA. She might get a chance to play overseas if that's what she wants.

ESPN actually shows the next best 76 players available who weren't drafted in the top 3 rounds and she is not in that list.

Shaping up to be a good recruiting class… now if only we could pay a better coach….
It's win win. Either Konkol gets it done or we can go into the next hire cycle with proven commitment to BB to get better candidates. Help avoid the issue we had on FB this year.

One thing is for sure, he’s getting the players he is asking for.

I’m not sure some of our previous coaches were allowed to recruit kids from I Don’t Know Where That Is Community College.
So we're giving him money and loosening the recruiting bonds. Almost like someone in charge really wants basketball to be successful.
