How would things be different if we had landed Isaac Hamilton?

I haven't posted since my column but I saw Issac Hamilton play for UCLA vs Cal last night. Cal thrashed them but Hamilton seemed to be their top player and is one of the leading scorers in the Pac 12.

How big a difference would he have made?

Were we at fault for losing him?

This is like wondering who your wife might hook up with after you're dead.

If we had Josh Hamilton our baseball team would be awesome! Well until he relapses....

....I kid. Easy mistake and yes I agree things would be way different.

Maybe you would volunteer in keeping Josh on the straight & narrow....as for Isaac, I'd leave that to granny & scumbag Steve Alford (I blame him).

This year? I don't think things would be too different. We are already set at the G position. If IH can actually play defense, then maybe I'd change my opinion.

Things would be different if we had Wilmms and Hunter this season.....that I can guarantee....

I think we could better use Chris Washburn at this point.

Chris isn't exactly lighting up the B12 -- Julian was better, certainly for UTEP.

Our Cooper years, he'd of helped. This year, only if he were 7 foot.

Just curious -after seeing how well he is doing in the Pac 12 which is pretty competitive.

Josh Hamilton is nursing a sore knee and is in Alabama for a stem cell injection. Will be MIA for at least a month. Won't be helping the Rangers much either.

If things would have panned out for CTF and Hamilton UTEP would have never been in a 6 year rebuild. The loss of Hamilton was a trickle affect that made CTF have to start taking risks on players who were academically questionable. That's the reason Miners kept having so much turnover, it's almost like CTF patheticed when he lost Hamilton because he didn't have a plan B because he never thought he would not show up. I feel UTEP is still feeling the effects of not landing Hamilton but seem to be on the right track now.

My apologies of course -Issac Hamilton, I was watching both Cal and Indiana back on forth on ESPN and often mess up names. Glad most of you figured it out!
