  1. I remember Houston sports talk was debating Jalen Green for Ingram last summer. Some truly horrific takes.
  2. I think Terry is the first hire CDC has handled poorly. He never felt like a long term solution. A stopgap hire to keep all of Beard’s players. I’ll concede RT had some upside as a recruiter, but almost zero upside as a coach. They’re not playing in the Mountain West. Out-talenting teams was never going to work.
  3. I assume Tech is all in on the portal and given up on high school recruiting because yikes.
  4. Cooper unknowingly wearing dick pants on the Dan Patrick Show, and the family’s reaction could be a Curb Your Enthusiasm storyline.
  5. Holy shit. If we ever needed a reminder that TexAgs is the weirdest message board on earth, there it is.
  6. Amen is walking turnover right now. I don’t know what they can do with everybody hurt. He has to play a lot of minutes, so he has to play through it.
  7. The current set up is giant tent bolted to the parking lot. If memory serves, they don’t even bother with a temporary floor. It’s also a 30+ minute walk from NRG Stadium with all the foot traffic. There were rumors of lots of fights last year, so I’ve kept my distance. Gotta be young and really into live music to make a go of it.
  8. My bad. Nico engaged with Rob Pelinka. Pelinka told Rich Paul about the trade 48 hours in advance. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/43676830/how-stunning-luka-doncic-anthony-davis-trade-came-together-los-angeles-lakers-dallas-mavericks
  9. Staples is such a Florida honk. He basically has them on the Tennessee 2024 path, a nice hollow 10-2 with losses to Texas and Georgia. Not dropping a 3rd game to the Vols, LSU, Miami, or Ole Miss is a very small needle to thread. I get it. They’re excited about Lagway, but there are 3 losses on their schedule. Tulane loses their best players to the transfer portal and they improve? No way. Clemson is a CFP lock with Klubs coming back in that dogshit conference. Illinois as the 2025 Indiana feels like a real thing. Beat IU + USC, and don’t get murdered by fOSU and they’re in. Goddamn I hate the Big Ten.
  10. The Spurs getting Fox for pick swaps is some wild shit. Of course the Bulls helped them out. The League needs to put the Bulls in a conservatorship until they can hire a real front office.
  11. Scattershotting on the Luka Trade: - LeBron was unaware of the trade my ass. Rich Paul engineered the whole thing, so LeBron knew. I get staying friends with AD and all that, but this is the disingenuous shit that makes people hate LeBron. - Michael Finley allegedly hates Luka. The VP of Basketball Personnel pushed out their best player. That is absentee ownership to allow that to happen. - Nico Harrison defended the trade by saying defense wins championship. The most cliche bullshit phrase in all of sports is Mavs fans’ only solace. Just say you didn’t want to give Luka the max. - I don’t think there’s enough time for LeBron to “fix” Luka’s conditioning. The Lakers will just have to hope and give him the max. I wonder if they’ll give Luka a no-trade clause. It would insane if they did, but the Suns inexplicably gave Beal one. - I’ve never cared for the Harden-Luka comparisons. Sure their games are similar, but Luka shows up in the playoffs.
  12. That sounds a shit ton better than the current set up. And I’m pro knock the Dome down.
  13. Please don’t freak out Stone. It’s a bad stretch with a lot of injuries, and they’re playing hard. They took the night off against the Nets. Shit happens.
  14. Nashville ships right? Any bottles worth buying in their site?
  15. They allegedly wanted a second when they considered trading him during the season. I see no reason why they’d back off of that now.
