  1. It's getting JIT in the Station!
  2. You can definitely fit in more than three cities unless you want to move really slowly, and you might have your reasons for doing so. If you decide to do a multi-country route, which I think is fine over two weeks, do an open-jaw flight from New York City or Boston and pick two cities where it will be easy to travel back to the United States, given the aforementioned European flight problems. If you can get back to NYC or Boston from cities like Paris, Rome, Budapest, and Prague, then you can connect domestically from there. That will minimize your connections in Europe itself. Some good "A to B" open-jaw, two-week itineraries are Paris to Rome, Budapest to Prague or Krakow, and Spain to Portugal. There is plenty to see to break up the itinerary into smaller parts. Just on the first route, there's the French wine country and Riviera, northern Italy, and Florence on the way to Rome, all accessible by train.
  3. Will be in NY for ~10 days and company covers meals up to $100 total per day. FiDi seems like a food desert (besides Joe's), but anything good that I'm missing there or nearby? Prefer unpretentious but otherwise not picky at all.
  4. Consensus 5-⭐️ recruit Attack Helicopter
  5. Shelby tells Fox 26 in Houston that he plans to make his decision before the beginning of his senior season - mid-July to early August. Next step is whittling down to top schools.
  6. Doesn’t matter. That area is sketchy as hell as soon as you walk off campus.
  7. Best brisket is at Panther City in Fort Worth. The brisket quesadillas are sex
  8. We all know Bishop rode the short bus
  9. So is Walton bringing that Walmart NIL money?
  10. Hope this isn’t some silent commit BS on a big fish again. But give me Walton either way
  11. We haven’t seen this many recruits commit in one day since Charlie cleaned up the breadcrumbs on NSD
  12. Will reiterate that Friendswood is an aggy pipeline, so Shelby deserves even more respect for telling them to stuff it
  13. So many people from Friendswood go to A&M that they call it Friendswood North. There will be negative recruiting from all the Aggies in town unless Shelby decides to commit while on a visit. A good recruit from Friendswood will get an unprecedented amount of attention, which to me could be a negative. There hasn’t been a good football player coming out of that town since Jaxson Appel in the 2001 class. I don’t think Shelby is the kind of person who will just go to A&M, but that’s the environment he’s dealing with.
  14. Imagine Tree vs Beaver in the CWS. Dam, that would be something to see
  15. Hopefully Choate's next visit to Hawaii will be to accept his new job with the Rainbow Warriors
  16. Yale is better
  17. Why is UTSA 90% confidence? Traylor got them to 12 wins in his second year. With Sarkisian as our coach, I can't go higher than 75% for that game.
  18. What's funny is that a lot of McCombs students (I was one) sitting on the other side from you would agree about wanting a football championship even over receiving a scholarship. Leaders who seem to be most successful have a killer instinct to do better and create something that's actually worthwhile; competitive people don't sit still or settle for a lower standard. There's no sense of vision, risk taking, or significant investment at the highest levels of the athletic department or the administration. It's no different than the lazy pro sports owners who sit on their profits while fans beg hopelessly for them to leave town, claiming that it's the fault of the fans or the players when they fail to put any real investment into their own business. It's all about perception and the narrative about what people think of them, not about achieving real success. I would even take the AD just making a reasonable attempt in trying to achieve success and failing. But for the most part, they're just making excuses and waiting for success to come to them.
