ISU freshman Kenyon Smith fails to qualify- will not play this year

[RedbirdFan21]

It seems a lot of people believe Tim Jankovich just wants to win 20-25 games
and move up the coaching ladder, rather than build long term success.

It appears that most of the hardcore fans over there (those with a high post count) dont agree with this setiment... just some food for thought... but you are correct- there are people that think this.

I have an even better question....

why do some ISU fans keep calling him "Keyon" and others say his name is "Kenyon"?

Could be because it is spelled Kenyon- but pronounced Key-on... the N is silent... could be confusing some people...

or just bad grammer...which very well could be the case

I just realized that Emmanuel Holloway and Lloyd Phillips went to the same JUCO - we can use Holloway's stats to give us a little more insight as to what we could expect from Phillips, since he presumably played in the same system and faced similar competition. Let's compare their sophomore JUCO stats:

Holloway - 15ppg, 2.6apg, 1.98 A/TO, 39% 3pt, 74% FT
Phillips... - 18ppg, 4.0apg, 1.91 A/TO, 43% 3pt, 80% FT

So, it looks like Phillips is a bit more of a PG than Holloway and is a slightly better shooter. I think it's reasonable to expect Phillips to have a year similar to what Holloway did last year, perhaps a little better. Of course, such a small sample size only gives us a slighter better idea of what to expect from Phillips, but it's still interesting to look at.

We had the same question about Kenyon v. Keyon over at our board for a long time. Turns out, its spelled Kenyon and pronounced Keyon. Beats me how that happens.

By you participating on this forum shows you are open to and part of the "new media".

Hey, listen... Accountability - the Drive-by Media owns the messages sent. The Drive-by Media has sold out. They have an agenda. They send a message - not just plain news.

You and I and everyone on this forum are truthseekers. New media is about truth.

So I sorta quote SH:

The "old media" and "journalism" will be remembered as dying in '08".

Well Mob I respect your opinion, even though I disagree with some parts of what you have stated. As for SH, I think that various forms of media need to exist, whether the media be in the present form or in some new form that doesnt currently exist. IMO people turn to the media outlet that they are comfortable to discern information. My favorite RR quote is "trust but verify." I am on this board or form of new media as I am comfortable with the knowledge that I can get quality information about Bradley basketball. And to be honest I was trying to have a little fun as well by using your quote.
