During this morning’s SEC Teleconference, Frank Martin described the challenge of breaking down Kentucky’s defense, which ultimately comes down to stopping Nerlens Noel, whom he called “The Human Eraser”:
““It starts up top. Their ball pressure, it’s hard to break them down, so when you do break them down, it’s not a big crack. And then you’ve got the human eraser back there that protects the rim, so I think defensively they are good. ”
With that hair, how did we not make that comparison earlier?

Not sure what Frank is smoking…Our guards are horrible at pressuring the ball. I’m pretty sure I could breakdown Ryan, Archie, Julius or Jarrod off the dribble, and I’m god-awful at it.

Human Eraser is an old phrase…before your time Tyler.

I still like my “”The Hoop Nazi” better…but I suppose that wouldn’t be considered PC or whatever….even though any Seinfeld reference should get a free pass. But Human Eraser is pretty good…and that pic is funny.

9) The hoop Nazi is awesome. But that human eraser Photoshop is pretty hilarious.

Mrs. Tyler Thompson,
I cannot believe in all of KSR’s pop-culture wisdom, no one has connected Noel — his hair and his defensive prowess for “erasing” points — to David Lynch’s “Eraserhead.”
e.g. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/93/Eraserhead_poster.jpeg/220px-Eraserhead_poster.jpeg
By the powers of Photoshop, make it so.
Warm regards,

12, it’s supposed to be the metal band that holds the eraser in place.

After every block respond: You’ve just been erased!

Someone has been suggesting “The Eraser” on this blog for quite awhile now. Mrs. Thompson, you can’t be giving Frank Martin the credit for it. It’s a BBN certified nickname.
