Have you seen the corpse we have on the sideline right now? Nolan can vouch for how terrible it is. I'm just desperate for anybody new at this point.You really want Howland at TAMU? Whyyyyyyyyy?

Tobacco Road has a monopoly on media enhanced prospects the past few years. I give him a better shot than Barnes and Rivers, though.

"With all the hype, it was unfair. I expected him to play like Wiggins. But he didn't. He doesn't dominate. He lacks consistency. He has skills but he isn't a super athlete. He is a very capable guy. But can he live up to all the hype? That is a burden he has to carry on his shoulders, being the best player in the nation. He has an excellent knowledge of the game. He has his moments but he doesn't perform on a consistent basis."
Allen called him hyped by media......You said hes not hyped.....I showed you the biggest hyperbole by one of the biggest sports media outlets and you reply like this?That's sports illustrated. They did the same **** with Bron when he was in H.S. I'm not saying that Bari is going to turn into Bron but 97% of media headlines are for shock to gain your interest. That has no baring on him not being #HIM
Nolan said that like Bari was overrated. He's been killing since he was a frosh,
This is no shot at Wiggins but how does the emergence of one player make Bari media enhanced? Has Bari not been putting in his work and earning his name/ranking since he stepped on the scene?
Who has killed him? Who has one upped him?
I don't see a dominant player that everything else suggests. He's a nice story from himself to Simeon to the Mormon angle and his dad always giving quotes - so it's only natural for there be an extra push, not his fault.
Very good player tho.

C'mon fam. Nobody said he ain't nice. But Yes he has benefited from some media OVERhype. That SI cover is proof. Nothing really to argue. When they call you the best HS player since Bron and he's not even #1 or #2 on Rivals.....then yeah thats a lil bit too far.
He's a beast man. Top talent no doubt. Very skilled and I'm a fan. But it just sucks that Wiggins is better prospect and is in the same class. Remember how nice OJ was then it was all about Rose and Beasley? Same thing.So he wasn't dominating/killing the circuit before he broke his foot? He wasn't the best player on that USA under 17 squad on an injured ankle? He didn't kill the King James Classic? He was considered to be the best player in all of HS as a junior now we're in full blown Wiggins mode and Bari goes from a special player praised for having an all around skill set to just a very good player that'sI don't see a dominant player that everything else suggests. He's a nice story from himself to Simeon to the Mormon angle and his dad always giving quotes - so it's only natural for there be an extra push, not his fault.

Your opinion is your opinion and I'm not trying to change it, but its just funny to hear this now. Had he committed to MSU the only thing I would be reading is how they beat out Duke on a truely Elite/Special player.
I'm Not Even Mad Though![]()
So you don't think the SI cover enhanced him? Lebron was worthy of the cover....Telfair wasn't and he was media enhanced doesn't mean he wasn't the best PG in his class. The SI cover is fact that he was media enhanced the title is almost comical "best HS player since LeBron"....really?I'm cool my favorite team got the player I wanted them to get for 2 years now.
I just find it funny how one of the 1st comments in here after his commitment is that he's media enhanced.
Carry On.

Shutup.Parker isn't going to have a MAJOR impact next season like the media hypes him
up. Jay Williams compared him to Paul Pierce earlier..I had the biggest stoneface.
Duke still gonna be nasty though.
Syracuse vs Duke gonna become the new greatest rivalary![]()

And I haven't seen much on 'Bari but I'ma take my dude Cake's word on this matter. On the real though, even with 'Bari I still think we need another big man. Who the @#$% is gonna rebound for us and give us a lil' something on the offensive end down low?
Cake repping 'Bari like he Mitt Romney and **** calm down g....He's top 3 in the class and will be a damned good college player, but he ain't a D.Rose/a. davis/Bron type which is what we are just saying.
