  2. In that scenario, it would have been even better if it were Oregon, as 2-pac would have sugar daddy Knight . . . Still, it's notoriously big . . . I'll be here all week.
  3. I agree with you that the NCAA has lost almost all of its usefulness. But legally, B1G and SECX3 eligibility rules aren't likely to fare much better. Once athletes became commercial actors with NIL, then any attempt to regulate their ability to earn a living is subject to the Sherman Act, and potentially illegal anti-trust activity. Unfortunately, only Congress can fix this. Is there a worse position to be in than that? Anyone here want Congress regulating CFB?
  4. That feeling when the scissors start to glide when cutting wrapping paper . . .
  5. Not Texags. They know he’s a 3* masquerading as a 5* because of his name.

    That dribble of piss that decides to come out 5-10 seconds after you’ve tucked it back in your shorts is the worst.
  8. The NCAA should’ve settled the Pavia case before this ruling. It’s not binding precedent on any other court, and it’s only a preliminary ruling, but it’s devastating for the NCAA. The court found that Pavia is likely to prevail on the merits of his claim that the NCAA’s eligibility rules, as applied to his specific situation, violate anti-trust law. Although the ruling is necessarily limited in scope, it’s a clear signal that the NCAA’s house of cards is about to fall. IMHO, any challenge to eligibility rules is likely to prevail. This was the day after NCAA Pres Baker got roasted on Capitol Hill. I’m not going to get into that because I don’t want to CR this thread. What does completely unregulated college sports look like? We’re about to find out. Edit: the X account linked by @Ricky's one-hitter above has some excellent analysis of this case and ruling. It’s really a landmark case. The implications are huge. For the nerds that want to dive into it, I’ve uploaded the ruling. Pavia v. NCAA - Memo Granting Plaintiff Motion for Preliminary Injunction (12-18-2024).PDF

  11. Pavia granted injunction, another year of eligibility. This necessarily includes a finding that he is likely to prevail on the merits of his argument that the NCAA's eligibility restrictions, as applied to him, are a violation of antitrust laws. https://www.on3.com/nil/news/vanderbilt-qb-diego-pavia-granted-eligibility-for-2025/ I haven't read the order yet, but this is another nail in the coffin of the NCAA's irrelevance. NCAA should've settled with him and given him another year. This is a big one.

    She did not make that offer in her capacity as your doctor.
  14. Short drive.
  15. Especially because during CBB season the ticker doesn’t distinguish between MBB and WBB. Just scores.

  19. Remarkably close to the CFP logo. No wonder guys want the trophy so bad. It’s undefeated. And the trophy is a vulva on top of a phallus. Or a very long birth canal.
