  1. Yeah back then you had way more students from out of state then would even be possible nowadays. UT also had provisional admission back then. So if you were a total fuck up in high school, but graduated in the top half of your class you could still gain admission to UT if you took like 12 hours of classes at UT during the summer and made like either a 2.5 or 2.75.
  2. Placing out is overrated nowadays since the students only get credit and no longer get the actual grade points to help buffer their overall GPA. During the 90s coming in with 30 hours of an A was a nice blockade against fucking up in school.
  3. I find that a lot of these UK based shows on streamers have similar points in the plot where they rely on the suspension of normal human skepticism for their narrative to reach completion. I used to think it was just a Netflix thing, but it seems like it's prevalent across all streaming platforms.
  4. Same here. Before reading through this thread I had it in my head that we were actually awaiting the 3rd season of Andor.
  5. I wonder how universities get around the laws against foreign students having jobs. Are they coming over on some other type of visa other than student visas?
  6. Dawit with the return volley https://x.com/NickHarrisFWST/status/1907503019396038950?s=19
  7. I never understood why people wanted Buzz here. He coaches an ugly style of basketball and doesn't have near the level of consistency that would warrant people putting him high on their list.
  8. Taylor played under Barnes for two years and under Shaka for one. And the only assistant Shaka brought from VCU was Murrell. Cason and especially Darren Horn were well regarded. I'm not attacking you just correcting the record. You allow your hate for Shaka to color your memory with some Foxnews level accuracy.
  9. This is a great site that measures NIL value of any player you pick. https://nkal11.shinyapps.io/portal_database/
  10. What makes Haith a terrible? I'm genuinely curious what makes your basketball acumen judge him as terrible.
  11. The thing that people always fail to mention about that 2001 season is Major tore his acl against Tech the season before and wasn't ready for fall workouts until a couple weeks before the season. Put yourself in Mack's shoes. Are you starting your over achieving noodle-armed senior QB who just missed all of spring and summer workouts, or are you starting your 5 star pedigreed QB who just finished the year off with wins KU and A&M and then a stellar bowl performance? That's what Mack was tasked with going into that season. Now obviously once the season got going and Simms showed performance issues in high leveraged moments Mack shouldve pulled the trigger quicker, but I can't fault him for beginning that year with Simms at the helm.
  12. I'm interested in an anthropological study on the sort of poster who doesn't post or give a shit about a sport unless the coach of said sport may get fired.
  13. Let me get this straight. You were done with Barnes a year after our 1st final 4 appearance in 50 years and a mere few weeks after reaching our 3rd sweet 16 in as many years.
