PPC Lavon is a fine young man. Has a good work ethic. Is the fouls situation all his fault...no. But it is the mental fouls that get him in trouble. Reach in fouls 70" form the hoop. Foolish fouls that would stop if he would slow down and think. Obviously you love him and want him to succeed. Sithim down and talk with him. already have. There is nothing I can say to make anyone believe Lavon will improve his fouling. I know what he is capable of and have complete confidence that he will reach his potential. If he did everything right now as a sophomore he would not be at Siena. He has challenges that he will continue to work on. I have no problem with the doubt some fans have and expect the backlash from fans of other teams. This is not new territory for me nor Lavon. The road is bumpy but progress is being made.....its almost impossible to see because of all of the loses. I get that so go ahead and vent. Just keep it about ball. The players are not happy with the losing and need the fan support to turn it around

Why no questioning when someone said the same thing about Wright a few days ago?

PPC if not Siena, where would Lavon be if he did evedon't ing right as a sophmore? Kentucky or the NBA? Why no questioning when someone said the same thing about Wright a few days ago? The post that i have read on this board about Wright is that his size probably kept him from playing at a higher level not his skills as a PG. Also i don't recall excuse after excuse being made on Wright's behalf when he has not played well.

Also i don't recall excuse after excuse being made on Wright's behalf when he has not played well. The one that I recall was in regards to his jump shot. Regardless, it's true for every player on this team that if they had a complete game they could be playing at a higher level.

Tell that to Marc Brown...Ubiles...Rossiter....and many others that could have played at a higher level. That is where Siena's tradition is.

Yes those players all developed while at Siena to become special. None were perfect as sophomores and definitely not as freshmen. That's what the discussion has been about.
Convenient how you leave out other players considered among the best ever to wear the green and gold who were exceptional but still had a few holes in their games as seniors.
But hey if you're going to take the view that every player at Siena should be flawless at least be consistent. No need to just single out Lavon.

There is no intention to single out Lavon - discussions, often brutal, have been had on just about everyone of our players. PPC has the habit of injecting Lavon into every thread on here and once he's there, the threads are completely hijacked. Evan has gotten lots of abuse as have Ryan, Mo and even Robbie. It comes with the territory and as the old axiom goes - you are only as good as your last game - trying to turn that tide is one of PPC's hallmarks, IMO. She's got Lavon's career in the washing machine on the spin cycle after every game.

You continue to take shots at me and include yourself where its not your business. Even though I have been ignoring your post like you told me you would do in a PM but I guess the senility set in and you forgot

Can someone help me out. Saints and eagles posts are almost identical to ppc's. Is "HE" related to ppc. "HE" was in a discussion and all of a sudden ppc took over.

I have never met PPC or Lavon. I am as sick as everyone else of seeing every thread turn into a debate about Lavon. So it would be a lot better if people such as yourself would stop picking apart everything that PPC says when you let the same exact comments go by about other players by different posters.
I am completely aware of why so much attention is paid to Lavon, but regardless I am a little uncomfortable with such negativity surrounding a Siena player, who we should all support.

I agree completely with this, the ones complaining the most about every thread turning into a Lavon thread are the same ones throwing bait out left and right in every post.

It gets pretty uncomfortable reading some of this. Lavon is a decent player who will get better. PPC is his mom. There's no changing that and moms (and dads) are going to defend their kids. PPC - I like reading your posts when they are about the team in general. My suggestion...don't take it personally if a "Lavon" comment is made and folks don't attack the poor kid.
