And yeah, his cover of Not Fade Away was the best one.

RIP and thanks for the great music. Saw him lots of times, including an awesome solo show at a club near Wrigley Field. That said, the band he had with Ponty Bone, Jesse "Guitar" Taylor, and Lloyd Maines was maybe the best live band I've ever seen. Just greatness. I was always puzzled why they didn't hit it big, but I guess they defied genres a bit too much. Here's a video that best captures what I remember:

Texas Recruiting Notes 2026: Boulevard of Broken Bagmen

Don't we already have a guy giving handjobs to recruits? This would not be a big step up from that. -

This seems to me like a reactionary hire. Someone convince me this helps solve long-term problems. -
Went back and looked at highlights of that SJSU game. Scudero doesn't show up much until the second half when we were rotating a ton of folks in on the defensive side. That is in contrast to the best white wide receiver on the field that day, a man who deserves respect and awe when you say his name: Motherfuckin' Parker Livingstone. As a bonus, that was Baxter's best game of the year by far.

(Didn't see a thread, so apologies if one does already exist.) Watched it last night on Netflix and enjoyed it. It's a subtle movie that assumes you have some knowledge of cinema given the number of inside jokes and references (I'm sure I didn't catch all of them). Linklater also weaves some self-deprecating bits in there--you can almost see that this is about Slacker as much as Breathless. Gorgeous sets/scenery, a killer jazz soundtrack, and great acting. It's amazing how much the actors look like the real people they are playing. Well worth a watch.

I played STQ a lot in my youth. It was loads of fun. Growing up in the 1970s in rural East Texas, we didn't have gays but we sure called each other gay, fag, queer, homo, and the like. Of course, we had a few of your more artistic types, but nobody was gay. I mean, come on. That was unimaginable in our school and something that only occurred in far-off cities. In the fog of my teen years, I didn't think about it too much when a couple of those artistic types just left for California or disappeared from class one day. Finally, sometime during my freshman year in college, I realized what was reality and how I and my friends had inadvertently made life much tougher for them than it should have been. Haven't really forgiven myself, but I hope I raised my kids to be more aware and caring than I was.

So, if things go like people are suggesting: Michigan fires their coach, hires Alabama's coach, who is replaced by the new LSU coach, who is replaced by Notre Dame's coach, who is replaced by the head coach at St. Joseph HS in Chicago. That's a lot of potential portal transfers.

Could this be the craziest coaching carousel of all time?
Reese Bennett replied to GreenspointTexas's topic in Football
When I first read this, I thought it was a joke. Nope. Biff Poggi is indeed the interim coach for Michigan. JFC. -

Plus, you know, Tuscaloosa, which Wiki describes as the regional center of industry, commerce, healthcare and education for the area of west-central Alabama. -

Of the four possible RB coaches listed, I know nothing about any of them but I want the Georgia Tech guy in the same way chicks make NCAA basketball tourney picks based on stuff like color of uniforms or cuteness of mascot. He just seems like the right choice. -

Pretty clear to these eyes that the only reason we have lost to Georgia is because they are getting inside info before the games and we all know the conduit for that info involves two people named Searles. Also, I heard the daughter keeps a picture of Mata Hari on her desk. -
