C. J. Walker

[CanadaHawk]

Just read on TOS that we've offered C. J. Walker, lefty 6-foot PG out of Indianapolis. Anyone know the truth of that? Here's a vid of him.

Didn't watch the video. Hopefully his game reminds you of Trice, and not his demeanor. I could not stand that guy

Great point...I want to see as much male thigh as possible. We need more guys like Ron Artest and that big guy from St. Johns now that are comfortable showing skin.

"Oh......another one of THOSE guys, "Guys respect him, because he has no ego and he plays his role so well," Delaney said. "He does what it takes for a team to win. He's the first guy to take a charge or dive on a loose ball."

Had committed to Purdue but reopened his recruiting. Looks like Butler may lead but we'll see.

Old school mid-thigh shorts are something that should never see the light of day again...ever. and yes, I wore them while playing HS basketball in the early-mid 80's. Horrible, ugly, evil looking things. I don't think we need to go with the calf length things that some guys wear, but the early 80's Celtic look should never come back.

Amen. We had the brutal polyester version and we'd fight over the 3 biggest pairs at every game and then spend the next 15 minutes trying anything and everything to stretch them out so we didn't look like the girls' volleyball pants of today. We would have been more comfortable with a good pair of boxers with a button-fly instead of those hideous things.

I miss the white tube socks that go halfway up your knees

The ones with the colored stripes that matched your jerseys were infinitely better

Speak for yourself.... I looked AWESOME!

Looks like it's official that we've offered C.J. Walker via the Iowa rivals front page. I like his skills: explosive to the hoop, shooter. Hope we get him. Apparently, Izzo likes him too as he's been seen watching Walker play recently.
