  1. Wise words sound like foolishness to the ignorant. What did he get at Texas that he never had before? An elite brand that had won 3 NCs before and had gone all in with him to win. 100 percent. Most of those years he was coaching at schools that don't win titles in football and don't go all in on it. He doesn't win in 2005 without the backing of an all in AD, alumni/donor base, and the brand/recruiting territory that comes with the University of Texas football. That's why I said the AD has to go all in with top 5 NIL, maybe even top 3, to give Miller a chance. Mack was never the best college football coach in the country in any year he coached. But with the right situation and the right backing he got a title.
  2. It's 100 percent pertinent and relevant at the moment. The AD just hired a disgraced former cheater who was fired from Arizona and had to go back to a lower level program to rehab himself. 2 years after firing a much better coach who then went down to a lower program to rehab himself. It's like divorcing your wife for cheating once, then 2 years later marrying a much uglier and nastier woman who got divorced because she cheated. It's stupidity, have some consistency. If they wanted the basketball program to stand on ethical principle then hire a squeaky clean coach with no cheating scandals in the past. If they don't care about reputation, then why did they fire the better coach? Also, Beard is now up 11 as a 6 seed coaching a program that has never been to the elite 8, and hasn't been to a sweet 16 in 24 years. I hope he wins the national title there just to piss in all of you moron's Cheerios.
  3. Shaka got 5 stars at Texas. It isn't about stars, it's about getting the right mix and building the right team. In all those years at Arizona and Xavier, Miller got to 3 elite 8s and 7 sweet 16s. That's his ceiling, like I said in a post a few days ago in the Fire Rodney thread. He's going to need maximum all in financial push from the University and it's people to break that ceiling. If they don't go all in Miller is good enough to have us in a lot of 2nd round/Sweet 16s as a ceiling. Also, he cheated. Doesn't matter if paying players is legal now, it absolutely was not legal then. He compromised his ethics and was a black stain on the reputation of the University. That's why he was back at Xavier and not another top program after Arizona fired him. He's a redemption project. I just wish we had kept our own redemption project who had us on the rise and built an elite 8 team. Who, while living in Mississippi, has not had another incident in over 2 years. If you dumb monkeys who are celebrating this would realize the hypocrisy and stupidity of your stance on Beard, and the huge mistake it was to fire him, then we could all get along.
  4. This is a big start. Miller isn't Rodney Terry level mediocre. He's a solid coach, he just isn't elite. And he was fired for a cheating scandal, so it's weird to hire a coach who's a cheater after standing on your principles and running off a much better coach who had a one time domestic violence incident. At least have some consistency, but they could have done worse and hired another Terry type for dirt cheap. At least this is a coach capable of making a final 4 type run if everything is pushed all in. Since Miller isn't elite, and isn't a recruit magnet, he'll need top 5 NIL money to compete. Top 15 is a start, but it has to get pushed higher to have a shot at a title with him.
  5. In what universe is Rex Kramer "socially liberal"? It isn't this one.
  6. They don't charge interest, but they do have an origination fee. So like a $3 fee to split it. I imagine there has to be a minimum dollar limit of $50 or $75 to use it. Kind of crazy
  7. Don't know if it's all the insanity and instability in the country right now around us, but I just haven't enjoyed the first round at all. Barely was able to keep my attention outside of the McNeese vs Clemson game and the St Mary's vs Vanderbilt game.
  8. And their drivers are getting paid less per order than they were a few years ago
  9. That's like having the expectation that the tap water is safe for your family to drink, or that real sugar be used in food products and not corn poison. Great ideas, should be the case, but just doesn't happen in this country.
  10. Hadn't clicked on this thread in 2 years, and this was the first unread post from 2 years ago. Yep, bingo. Right on the spot there buddy
  11. Communist is similar to Christian as in they are labels plastered over things that aren't in any way actually Communist or Christian. Communism and Christianity do not exist today. Bastardized versions of fascism have replaced communism and Christianity and wear the label like a little red hat.
  12. If that thing blows up larger than expected we need to start harping the warning that this is God and Jesus getting pissed for fucking with migrants and Canada. This is their warning shot before going full biblical on America's ass.
  13. Whoever was responsible for Brexit and Boris Johnson. Gotta be them fucking something up
  14. Almost 30 years ago Tupac and Biggie got killed and it was front page news. Now, one of these guys gets whacked every month and no one gives a shit because they have no talent whatsoever.
  15. American fascism not making things better as Americans believed?
  16. Clemson with a stellar 0.65 pts per minute first half.
  17. Gerry Hamilton has gotten on this weird kick of saying it's offense that wins in college basketball now. That you have to score in the 80s+ every game to win the title now because other teams offense will score in the 80s. Yet the last 3 years the national title winning team never gave up 80 in a single game in 18 wins and average giving up about 65 a game defensively. Dude needs to drop that nonsense and look at reality. In the tournament scoring drops from the pressure, and the team that brings consistently great defense with competent offense wins the title.
  18. American culture is about greed, greed, and more greed combined with mountains of selfishness and a complete distrust of people around you every day. You mean the people in that culture aren't happy? You want to be happy? Unplug from social media, unplug from non sports TV, and watch sports with your buddies and do stuff with your family. It's pretty easy and that's why Americans don't get it.
  19. I think we're seeing the portal and NIL ruining the first round. None of these teams are anywhere close to the power conference teams. Louisville vs Creighton should have been close but Louisville laid an egg. They're better than they played.
  20. The face of maga when they've just managed to convince themselves trump is about peace when he starts talking about invading Canada
  21. His buyout is 18 million. This university is never spending that on a basketball coach. Your shit will turn green and smell like lucky charms before that ever happens.
