  1. It was, but a Table of Contents would have been helpful.
  2. Since tons is plural, that’s at least two tons. At 200 pounds per player on average, that would be 4000 pounds/200 pounds per player = 20 5 stars. In 12 years at Arizona. That’s 1.67 5 stars per year.
  3. This is a great question. Top 3 for sure and probably #1. And I’m not that fired up about Miller.
  4. Does this go 7 or 9 innings? I can’t remember.
  5. You mentioned this before. In general, I’m not a big believer in coaches who scream and yell so much that they treat athletes poorly. With that said, a ton of highly successful coaches are not easy to play for and yelling and screaming is often part of the formula for success. Beard is a screamer, as are many other top coaches. The real question is whether the behaviors cross lines, or are the players simply not mentally strong enough to take the “coaching”.
  6. Golden had a very pedestrian resume. How did Florida see Golden as a good hire?
  7. It could be someone who loses today and maybe one extra day to get everything lined up. No firing by Tuesday means either someone still coaching or haven’t got the person locked down.
  8. The “surprise” hire of Beard was different than the surprise being discussed now. Everyone knew he was the top target of Texas, but most thought Texas couldn’t get him because of the extension. The surprise was that we did. This surprise would be a coach that no one is thinking about because Texas doesn’t have a clear top target. Different type of surprise.
  9. Just had that today at the airport and it was pretty good for the price.
  10. I’m guessing a Sunday afternoon firing of Terry and a Monday announcement of the new coach.
  11. id have preferred to post the My Cousin Vinny gif instead but couldn’t find it.
  12. Chip has said behind closed doors that Miller was the guy last time before Terry was hired. That conflicts with the view that Mark Few was lined up. Either way, starting to sound like Chip had the right guy. I’m underwhelmed. Maybe he works out.
  13. Prepping her for Congress is right in line with a certain political party’s strategy. Find the most unqualified people possible to run for office so that they will be complete sycophants totally beholden to the party, no matter how illegal or immoral the position. It’s their strategy. By the way, hi Kelly.
  14. Such an awesome post. Made my Friday night.
  15. Tommy Lloyd seems like a fit. He’s 50, coached under Few at Gonzaga and has done well at Arizona so far. His pay is affordable, etc.
  16. Along with the Brett Beliema thread, the title of this thread is great.
  17. Is there power coming into your house?
  18. Chip has been telling people it’s Miller. I personally didn’t buy it. If he actually is now mentioned Hurley, I find that interesting, because that’s the name I heard months ago.
  19. Can you clarify where you heard this name?
  20. Chip believes it’s Miller. Ugh. The name I heard a few months ago has not been mentioned much in this thread in the last many weeks. I’ve heard nothing in the last several weeks. I’m assuming it’s either because they’ve locked him up or they couldn’t get a deal down or he didn’t pass muster. No idea.
