Some fan I am. On draft night I had seen Fi was taken 27th by the Nets but traded to the Clippers. Haven't thought to check and see how Mann did until this morning. He was taken 48th in the 2nd round by the Clippers. Hope they both make the team and stick around for a while.

From link above:

"After playing in more games than any other man in Florida State basketball history, Terance Mann is now a Los Angeles Clipper, after being taken with the 48th pick in the 2019 NBA Draft. His selection gives the Seminoles two NBA draft picks—both ultimately headed to the Clippers—in a single draft for the second time in three years. . . . . . .

. . . . . . .Mann’s time at FSU is arguably the most successful four-year stretch in Seminole history, featuring three consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances, two Sweet 16s, one Elite 8, a trip to the ACC Tournament Championship game, a school record 29 wins in one season, and turning the Donald L. Tucker Center into one of the hardest places for opponents to steal a win in the entire country. And he did it all with a mega-watt smile on his face and willingness to do whatever his coaches and teammates needed him to do in order to be successful."

Hope no one is depending on me for Nole news. After almost 2 months without logging into TN, since two of my favorite {to beat} teams from the state are kicking off the pointy ended ball season, I clicked. After a quick look at the exciting news about numbers being white again, I looked at the roundball section.

Here is the OOC schedule.

And we hired a coach. Steve Smith, recently with Clemson. A funny thing happened on the way to the FBI's hoops investigation. Steve was caught on a wiretap talking about Clemson Football buying recruits. That sort of thing is not said {even in private} if you want to keep your job, so we were able to pick up a pretty good coach at a time of year when not many good ones are looking for work.

And while in Tally, Steve can talk about the Tigers paying recruits all he wants. No one will get mad.

Alright, the Nole's football season is underway. Lets see if we can not stink it up as bad as last season.
