data-mm-id=”_prfv9fsz8″>Georgetown held Senior Night over the weekend. Among those seniors was George Muresan, son of Gheorghe Muresan. George appeared in 19 games for the Hoyas this season. His entire family was there to celebrate the end of his college career and they gathered at halfcourt to take a picture with coach Patrick Ewing and another person who is clearly not related. As usual, it was great to see Gheorghe, still the tallest player to ever appear in an NBA game at 7-foot-7. It's been two decades since injuries forced him to retire. Over the last 20 years he's raised two very tall children with his 6-foot-1ish wife, Liliana, and run a successful basketball skills camp in Virginia. It's incredible how far he's come. Gheorghe was drafted 30th overall in the…

data-mm-id=”_9gt5a38em”>Ryen Russillo appeared on Monday's edition of The Bill Simmons Podcast. Simmons and Russillo had a free-flowing conversation that occasionally touched on mature subjects, including coronavirus. While discussing the suspension of the NBA season, Russillo addressed a message to media members on Twitter. Specifically, people giving billionaire owners crap for not responding quickly to the season possibly being lost. You can listen at the 32:32 mark of this video.It was clearly something that had been annoying Russillo, who had tweeted about it a few days prior. He mades some salient points about owners needing time to put together plans, but on the other hand, no.Everyone is trying to figure this out. Blaming the NCAA for not making a decision HOURS after the …

data-mm-id=”_6uprq3wpb”>Indiana has announced senior-to-be Justin Smith has graduated and will transfer. Smith was the team's third-leading scorer last season, averaging 10.4 points and 5.2 rebounds per game. Despite his outstanding athleticism and defensive prowess, Smith was maddeningly inconsistent at times for the Hoosiers. While his departure will hurt, it could also open up a ton of possibilities for head coach Archie Miller. During his three years in Bloomington, Smith showed flashes of brilliance. But all-too-often he disappeared during key segments of games. He also never developed as an outside shooter despite a desire to play on the wing. As a junior he only hit 26.3 percent from 3-point range. Smith was an excellent defender but also drifted in games at times on the de…

data-mm-id=”_o5s9eaf8t”>Adam Gase may have lost the New York Jets locker room after just a year in charge of the team. A report on Wednesday claimed a big reason All-Pro safety Jamal Adams wants out of New York is Gase's presence as the team's head coach. Apparently, he's not alone in not respecting the 42-year-old. Addendum: Jamal Adams is not alone in his feelings toward Adam Gase. Gase is not respected in the Jets locker room. https://t.co/KGJcD7ACWU— Manish Mehta (@MMehtaNYDN) June 24, 2020Man, Gase is turning into franchise poison for the Jets. If a player has no confidence in his head coach, why would he want to sign a long-term extension there? Remember, Gase went 10-6 with the Dolphins, then won 13 games combined over his next two seasons and went 7-9 in his fi…

data-mm-id=”_h8ravi4oq”>Tiki Barber was critical of Saquon Barkley during Tuesday's edition of Tiki and Tierney on CBS Sports Radio. He called out the New York Giants running back for his inability to pass block and said Barkley may not be a three-down back. Now that's a hot take. Check it out:"Saquon Barkley is a great back, but he might not be an every down back. He cannot pass protect. It's becoming glaring & could become a liability"@TikiBarber says Saquon needs to vastly improve his pass-blockinghttps://t.co/XPocW1rdxt pic.twitter.com/qigna0i9Gm— TikiAndTierney (@TikiAndTierney) September 15, 2020Barber said Barkley was a "liability" in pass protection which means he's not worth having on the field on third down. Those are strong words…
