  1. I think Gerry puts in the miles to have real information and that is why he is so good. On the downside he gets to know some of these kids and their families so well that he gets enamoured with some of the recruits abilities so some of his observations have to be taken with a grain of salt.
  2. Almost like he is celebrating in his mind and not focused on making a layup to ice it.
  3. Nebraska dude doing horns down I wonder if he knows he is playing a Texas cult and not us. So funny to live rent free.
  4. Here you go since I could not @ you
  5. When that guy shot the first free throw to quick in the UK game I was like take your time like Jackie.
  6. Why shoot a 3 when the team is 1 for 13 and going to the basket has started to work.
  7. Didn't all these schools leave just one or two years early. Had the BIG XII been worried they would have let things sit in court until the GOR had expired. I think it was more along the lines of Texas staying around the first time and this time it was about signing a new deal before the PAC12 and zero fear about the GOR being challenged.
  8. If I were the SEC I would take Duke, Kansas, UNC plus FSU. That way with Kentucky, Duke, Kansas and UNC the SEC would have many of the the most storied football programs and most of the most storied basketball programs. Before people start making the football argument I happen two agree with Chris Fowler that says the next step after all this realignment will be the Super 2 trimming the dead weight like Vanderbilt, Mississippi State, Rutgers, etc. So in a two tier system you have the BIG football schools bring in the FB money and get tier one money and the BIG BB school bring in the basketball money and get a part of the FB money. The BB schools then serve as the schools one beats up on during football season yet they will be the ones with all the eyes during BB season.
  9. What schools prior to Clemson and FSU had challenged their GOR in court? I know schools had negotiated smaller exit fees but I don't remember them doing it due to the belief the GOR could be challenged.
  10. Dan Wetzel and these guys crying about BIG10 and SEC throwing their weight around at 1:47
  11. Somebody else made the assessment my response was if you really believe that someone is much better than the starter than why would you leave spring practice having the better player think he is a backup. Read the post I responded too before making a comment that does not apply to the context of the conversation.
  12. I am of the opinion that all degrees are helpful. Some will earn you way more money than others. I have a family member that has been successful in business after dropping out after two years of college and has a kid that did not go to college at all and was being defensive. He said I did X, Y and Z and all I got is high school and asked did you learn those X, Y and Z skills in college or in high school. He said the two skills that really helped him to get started he learned in his two years in college. Now the ROI may not be worth it these days but in our day even a couple of years of college had a nice ROI.
  13. I rather they give the better projected starter the spring reps because the other side of the coin is that we lose a great player to the portal because the better player knows he should have overtaken the player in front of him on the depth chart. Just like losing coaches is a good thing losing players because they lost their starting position will be a good thing. It will hurt depth but I rather not risk the better player.
  14. I did not buy this so I Googled it and it is worse than that in Texas they do not even require intent. "If you are on private property and intoxicated, your vehicle may look like a good place to sleep it off. But don't put yourself in the position of appearing to operate the vehicle, or you may suffer a DWI arrest. Texas DWI law does not require your intent to drive somewhere." https://www.dougmurphylaw.com/dwi-guide/defending-dwi-arrests-on-private-property
  15. I like how the OU player is just an empty vessel, that was a Freudian slip.
  16. Someone needs to tweet this stuff at Trev Albert before his first meeting with Liucci.
  17. This guy has two good lines: Arkansas hiring Bobby Petrino is like Biden hiring Clinton to run his intern program. Money can't buy happiness but that does not stop Texas A&M from trying.
  18. Pubes has football covered Trev is suppose to make them a volleyball contender.
  19. Would have never thought of a cleaver but that is the one I am going to consider.
  20. Was it Gerry that said we may be faster this year because of AD being replaced with speed. I guess AD looked slow next to X.
