  1. Fuck yeah… tapping into another blue chip factory (Hewitt-Trussville):
  2. Murph back would be huge... Might have been someone on here who posed the question but can you remember a more under-appreciated season than the one Murph just had in Ivan’s shadow? Hodo is getting 7-10th round grades which I’m guessing will be high enough for him given he already graduated and I don’t think there are any glaring holes in his game that he could fix coming back for one more. Would be shocked if Silas is back. He’s going to go top 5 rounds easy and I hope he gets a nice, well earned payday. Biggest wildcard in my mind is Trey. I think he could gain most from coming back. The tools alone get him drafted but the K issue is the elephant in the room. If he can come back, keep slugging, and cut the k-rate to even ~25-30%, he’s probably going in the 2nd round next draft.
  3. Hoping there were occupancy issues… if not, holy fuck did they shit the bed underwriting this bitch.
  4. Pissed in an empty Gatorade bottle waiting in student line to get into Frank Erwin for a KU game. Thought my buddies provided enough cover and I was being discreet until I locked eyes with a girl from one of the prude spirit groups (spirits?) who was a few feet ahead in line. She was impressed by nothing she saw.
  5. Any cooperation should be contingent on them losing the fucking horn.
  6. Been a while since I laughed this hard on surly. And I feel poorly for it.
  7. Believe there are still a couple of interesting Baylor players in the portal- wonder if that helps here.. Specifically thinking of Jared McKenzie who would slide in very nicely into the outfield. Believe Phil Nevin's kid who also rakes was in there too.
  8. In.
  9. In thinking through desirability of ACC/PAC/B12 schools to fill spots in a Mega BIG/SEC scramble. Note fan size is taken directly from this study that was posted somewhere on here previously... Can't vouch for methodology but it feels directionally correct other than a few weird ones (Syracuse?): https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MiUOwx8X3H2bSkUOz8a1YhceyJWLLCoJ/view?usp=drivesdk
  10. If Big 10 announced they were expanding to 24 and offered spot to ISU you wouldn't want it?
  11. In a scenario where it really does become SEC and BIG with 20-24 teams running shit, are there luckier motherfuckers out there than the likes of Rutgers, Illinois, Northwestern, Vandy, Mizzou who I guess are grandfathered in? 24 teams each would leave 16 total spots for leftover ACC, Pac-12, Big 12 schools and Notre Dame (37 total). Kind of fun exercise thinking through how you rank those schools in terms of desirability.
  12. Is there a scenario where Big 12 losing/gaining teams in some kind of Big 12-Pac merger reduces our buyout or speeds up the SEC timeline?
  13. Anybody had any luck managing thunder/firework anxiety? It's gotten worse every year for my 9 year old golden. Have tried the thunder jacket, CBD treats, Benadryl, etc. to no avail.
  14. So this assumes Notre Dame becomes full time ACC? I'm behind... would they willingly give up indy status in this world of 4 16 team conferences?
  15. Miami too? That gets you to 19. As someone with best friends who are OSU grads, part of me would love to see OSU sneak in as 20th team. Maintain OU/Texas rivalries and makes as much sense geographically as anyone else.
  16. Obviously much larger ramifications if this is true but wonder if this could be part of Tulo turning down USC job? That move sucks for the baseball teams.
  17. Missed opportunity if you don't use this as home for a Surly Sugar Babies reality series.
  18. Yep. During school we went to case competition hosted on campus and they were very adamant about not going more than a block off campus to get an Uber. There were never less than 3-4 police cars within eyesight when walking Vermont.
  19. A hit to board chemistry... one of few things we could ever all agree on is Blair fucking sucked and should not be pitching here.
  20. Besides Byron Murphy, this is first kid we've landed from DeSoto since 2012. Lets start a pipeline.
  21. I've been saying this would be Evan Stewart since the second we lost him.
  22. <CSB> the last one (Kjerstad) was the bat boy for a team I played on. His older brother was Dex who spent the 2011 season playing for Augie before transferring. <CSB>
