WHO radio doesn't have the story on-line...if it were true, it'd be a real story by now. Somebody thought they had a piece of news, and tried to run with it (or it was heard incorrectly.)

I have two sources where I get my Barry Hinson fix... Go to the Springfield News leader website and search his name.
The other is... go to google, search Barry Hinson Quotes. One of the first results to come up is a place called TheExist.com. There are hundreds of them there...

I think that Dr. Tom should stay. He led Drake to their first winning season in 20 years and now everyone at the school wants him to hand the reigns over to his son. Heck if Dr. Tom can do what he did this year, who's to say that next year Drake won't be out of the Sellar? Just a hunch on my part. I am by no means a Drake fan or anything, I just respect Dr. Tom Davis as a coach and I don't think that Drake should be so quick to push him out. Iowa did that, and we all know how that has turned out.

"You put some dumb red bird, a Hawkeye, and a Panther in a cage, and who do you think is going to win? The Panther would clearly rip the other two to shreds, eat them for dinner (although it would be a small meal for the monstrous beast) and spit out their feathers to make a pillow!"

Slow and clumsy are not words that I would use to describe Vette. Now he isn't fast, but he does have average speed. I've been to 3 W-SR games and my parents have been to all of the home games and a few on the road as well. Now like my dad says Vette doesn't play any defense. He guards the other teams worst player and just doubles the post players and clogs up the lane. Vette also likes to go for the block all of the time so he does get in some foul trouble. He can rebound the ball very well though.Originally posted by Brett Crawford View PostAs far as Clayton Vette from Waverly....
If he was really a solid Valley player, do you think that our staff would let a kid that is exactly 13 miles away, get away??
At this point the best thing you can say about his game is that he is 6'9". He is really slow and kind of clumsy. Its a stretch to see him playing a significant role for an upper level Valley team.. IMO...
Offensively he is a good player. He can shoot the three, dunk, lay it up, pass it, and board it. I think that almost all of the Valley teams, some MAC teams and a few others recruited Vette. It came down to Indiana State and Drake and he chose Indiana State. When I found out that was where he was headed i was worried about Waltman getting sent out the door and what would happen....I guess I'll find out now, huh? For anyone that is interested you can watch Vette and the #4 Go-Hawks go up against West Delaware on Tuesday night at 6:30 in the McLeod Center to see who goes to the State tournament in Des Moines. The Waterloo East and Cedar Rapids Kennedy basketball game will follow the W-SR/WD contest.Coach Whisenhunt 1/18/09. "There was never any complaints about not being named the starter, all he wanted was an opportunity and he took advantage of it. Kurt is probably one of the greatest individuals you'll ever meet. Kurt worked hard on a lot of things that a lot of times older quarterbacks aren't willing to do. That's a credit to his humility and his competitive drive, and the reason that we are here today in great part is what Kurt Warner has done for us."

Dr. Tom could very well get his team out of the cellar this upcoming year (i.e.- bottom 4 teams). However, Drake does lose 4 of their starters (PG- Stewart, WG-Grant, PF-Calvin, C-Keita...plus they lost one of their best outside shooters from '05-'06, IMO, in Chris Bryant who is transferring).
Korver and Young are back, which make for a great scoring punch, but I don't really remember what they have coming in recruiting wise outside of a guard from Chicagoland (who I have heard is pretty good), and a big man from Nebraska.The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.
