Good Morning John, Jimmy, and Darrion,
First of all I want to say how sorry I am to hear a friend of the Blazer nation died suddenly, leaving a wife and (2) kids. Prayers for the family and friends of the person that passed.
What a game last night. The Ty Brewer show was in full effect, and he has really shined this post season heavily against Moorehead and Utah Valley. Although, I am a big fan of Jordan Walker, and I so want him to shine, on this stage, and he is playing ok, he has struggled for his standards. I am glad this season that other players have shined when Jelly is maybe not at his best. KJ Buffen against Southern Miss and Ty Brewer, plus the team is getting great bench points. If the team has gotten down in this post season, mostly the last 2 games Vandy and UVU, they don’t panic and have bad fowls or get a technical foul mouthing off to the Ref. This is UAB’s 29th win, and I for sure would love to see 30. This season will finally be over on Thursday, no matter what happens it’s been an awesome ride.
Thank you guys for putting out this great content feeding my UAB fandom. So Blazer Nation -Lets ride? or Let’s Blaze?
I am sure you guys already saw this but apparently Jelly Walker and his girl dropped the news on Instagram (at least where I saw it) that they are having a baby girl in July 2023.
Blazers are a TEAM! Great coaching, too!
Darion, just said a prayer for your family and your friend’s family. I am very sorry for your loss.
Go Blazers!
Hey Guys,
I hope you all can do a sit-down interview with Coach Kennedy, and reflect on the season that was, and what is in store for the future. I would love to hear about his coaching philosophies, and also how he as a coach & mentor works with these young men to be great basketball players, but also good upstanding fine young men.
I will be more than happy to come as an unpaid intern for this interview.
I also hope that maybe you guys can report on some of the portal transfer guys as they come in. We had so many great portal transfer guys this season. Keep up the good work.
