What a great second half between UConn and Duke!

Pencil in the UConn men to win the natty imo. Illinois is a good team, but an unwritten rule is if UConn MBB makes it to the Final Four, they will win the natty. Luckiest program in college basketball history.

Meh freshman mistake at the worst possible time it happens 🤷🏿

😈 well damn 😂

No one will ever forget that ending

I don’t see that happening either, but if it’s possible and the trade is Hidalgo and Preston leaves, if you’re Texas you make that trade. Preston is good, but Hidalgo is elite.

Interesting that he spends so much time appealing to patriotism, the constitution, the importance of college athletics as a fundamentally American institution and then proceeds to describe college sports as a public good that should be effectively owned by the state. And his solution is collectivized pooling of media rights. I’m not commenting on the legitimacy of his proposed solution (which is stupid), but the hypocrisy is just stunning. College sports is a business that generates billions of dollars in revenues. To suggest that it is a public good is one of the most bizarre things I think I’ve ever seen someone posit on X, and that is saying something.

“Universities claim they have to follow the money out of self-preservation but their decisions are creating a financial monopoly” *proceeds to follow the money to buy all the best recruits, thereby creating at Tech something approaching a financial monopoly*

“College athletics are a public trust” “college sports has never been a private fiefdom” *proceeds to pump millions of private dollars into his own little fiefdom*

“A flagrant power grab by the most powerful names and entities in college sports” does this dude have any self-awareness whatsoever, or is he really just that brazenly cynical?

Lotta chatter about Hannah Hidalgo transferring from Notre Dame to Texas. I don’t see how that happens with Breya Preston as the projected starter and Aaliah Spaight coming in next season. I’m sure Hidalgo’s NIL asking price will be big.

“College sports is broken because of rich people, so to fix it, I will pay a softball player $1,000,000 a year, and pay a left tackle who can’t block $750,000 per year”

Cayden said don't forget about me😈

Probably not one on one like that. He's not enrolled yet so a little bit easier. Never say never though.

Catchers, I'd go with Teagarden but, best season has to be Brooks Kieschnick. That's my 2 cents

We must be watching two different games

The UConn big has been unstoppable, be interesting to see if there shooters can take advantage of the defense focusing on him. Duke showing no signs of slowing down, can see why they were the number 1 overall seed the way they are playing offensively so far

If we get by Michigan, we get UCLA in the final four.

Said a few weeks ago Tinney will be fine. And he’s getting there. but nowhere near the best season ever.

BTW, Rick has been to three Elite Eights in a row at Tennessee. That's tied for his number of Elite Eight appearances at Texas ('03, '06 and '08),

That loss and the '06 Elite Eight loss to LSU are the two I don't think I'll ever get over. The Elite Eight loss to Miami is in a different category for me.

and had pitched midweek.

For some reason they wanted Kavan to start today despite her pitching all game Friday and the end of the game yesterday.
