Gotta love this quote from the Indiana Board about mr Rivers.
Rivers was a lot more than "a little erratic." He was flat out of control. Probably because he hasn't played in 2 years, but he took a bunch of bad shots and left his feet several times with no place to go.
Sound familiar.

Funny, I remember the same thing when he had played 2 days before. I feel bad for Indiana fans on this one.

Had trouble with the streaming video for the Hoya game so I watched about 15 minutes of the Indiana game and I'll say Jeremiah made the right decision to transfer to Indiana. He's now the starting guard/forward on the team where he is surrounded mostly by freshmen who like to jack up everything that comes their way. Jeremiah was, and is, the steadying man on this team. He is the main man bringing the ball up court, though it's not exclusively him, and he does a good job. In the zone Indiana mostly employed Jeremiah played one of the forward positions. During the 15 minutes I watched him he performed well, though not spectacularly. The box score does not tell the full story. His value was as of a floor leader and, at this, he did well for those 15 minutes. He missed a couple of shots, one a layup the other a mid-range jumper but -------- he made both of his foul shots-----------. The up-tempo game at Indiana is much better for him. I hope he has a successful season.

Good luck to Jeremiah at IU, unless they Hoosiers play the Hoyas in the NCAAs. Then we can think about critiquing his actions and comments in hopes of getting some good bulletin board stuff. Until then, how many of us did or said all the right things at 20 years old? Give the kid a break. let's focus on the team we have, not those who left.

Why do we care at this point? His performance was predictable -- learning to shoot at this stage is hard.
I don't dislike the kid, and he's going to prove to the world that it wasn't the system, or the coach, even with an extra year of practice and development.

I don't dislike the kid, and he's going to prove to the world that it wasn't the system, or the coach, even with an extra year of practice and development. Based on early returns and comments from FL, it would seem both kids - Rivers and Macklin -- will be proving to the world that it "wasn't the system". And if our Hoyas have the kind of year they are capable of -- and for which we are all hoping -- it will be one more proof of just how effective JT3's systems (O and D) are, and what an outstanding coach he is. Come to think of it, I really don't care about the two kids, but i care a LOT about how well OUR guys do. Great first game. Get the jitters out. Start to work together on the court. Get Julian involved. Let Jason play like the DC POY he was. Get Freeman back on track as he appears to be. Work in Hollis and Henry. Chris will show people why he was a 3 Time ALL MET. And Greg? Greg will show people that he belongs in the company of the best Hoyas of the Thompson era. We are not going undefeated this year, but we are going to have a LOT of fun and get the program back on track! HOYA SAXA! GO HOYAS!

I liked Jeremiah when he was at GU and I have nothing against him. But he asked for trouble when he started yapping non-stop these past couple of months. And what has he shown? Well the Hoosiers barely beat USC-Upstate, a third year D1 program, 69 - 61. Jeremiah didn't help things by going 0 for 4 from the filed. In two games he has now shot 2 for 12 with 9 turnovers. What's worse is that some Hoosier fans are sounding like Hoya fans: Not sure about anyone else but I cringe every time Jeremiah touches the ball because it seems like he either turns the ball over or takes bad shots. Hopefully he is just trying to impress his dad and the rest of the garbage is done after this game. Rivers should be replaced with Hulls. He plays out of control and has no offensive game at all. Hulls makes everyone around him better and things run more smoothly.mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=170&f=2353&t=5136948Better pick up your game, Jeremiah, or you will look like a fool. Maybe its rust or nerves.

It's the "Upstate" in the other team's name that makes Rivers's performance even more embarrassing.

Maybe its rust or nerves. He already looks like a fool. Even his dad knew it was a dumb decision to leave GU. I'm glad he's gone - dude didn't want to be here and didn't bring much to the table beyond the occasional defensive stop.

Now, now, that's a bit harsh. Granted it's very early, but don't throw Macklin under the bus yet. Also, from everything I've read, Vern wasn't bitter and certainly not critical, he just decided that he wanted a more up-tempo game. There's nothing wrong with that. And in, albeit only one game, he has looked more than capable of giving us some sorely needed bulk inside. Thirteen points, 8 boards and 3 blocked shots in just over 20 minutes of playing time isn't too shabby. That certainly looks dramatically better than the early returns on Jeremiah.

Vern wasn't bitter or critical - he just stunk. But 13 and 8 is a solid outing for the guy. VERY solid for the guy. I wouldn't expect too many more of those.

I'll always like Macklin--and like Jeremiah--appreciate what they did for the program while here--they accepted their roles (while not happy) and helped the team win games/championships. Out of the 2, I'd rather have kept Vernon as I feel he'd have flourished with Greg Monroe--but we'll never know that--so no reason going back. That being said--he's going to do well at Florida and contribute. Just because it didn't workout for him at Georgetown doesn't mean he's got to be a "bum". Hell at least he provided Hoyas his best game in his departing game--as it was during his time on court Hoyas took it to Davidson.
As for Rivers--he's a kid who doesn't want to accept his role--and if he did--he'd be excellent fit for a championship program. He's not the first and won't be the last player with an overinflated opinion of his game. I'm just sickened by the lies/garbage he's spewed about Georgetown "not fitting his game...." etc...as it's BS and he'll prove this during his time in Bloomington.

On what planet did either "help" us do anything? Yes, the occasionally played, but any respectable ball player with a pulse could have made the same "contributions" Mack and Rivers did.
