  1. Past hour
  2. So nobody who can play ball is getting left out. They might not be in a perfect situation nor make as much as they’d like but that’s different than the crisis mongers stating thousands of players are essentially homeless and wouldn’t be in a pre-portal world.
  3. It's already snowing here boys. I don't care if the electricity goes out for month.
  4. This thread needs mushrooms🤣
  5. These are results for youngest american player to win three championships team sports Search instead for youngest american player to win thee championships team sports AI Overview Kobe Bryant became the youngest American player to win three championships in a major U.S. team sport (NBA) at age 23, winning his third consecutive title with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2002. Key details regarding this achievement: Player: Kobe Bryant. Age: 23 years old.
  6. Seems like a lot of schools are focusing their resources on the top of the roster and may look to fill out the depth with players who will have to accept playing for “just” a scholarship.
  7. The NCAA unearthed another revenue stream Friday when Division I leaders approved patches for uniforms in a move that could generate millions to fund athletic departments that are looking for new ways to pay players. Beginning Aug. 1, Division I teams can place up to two patches of no more than 4 square inches on uniforms for regular-season games. Those are in addition to the logos already allowed for the uniform manufacturers. Rules committees for the postseason will decide how to handle March Madness, the College World Series and other playoff tournaments, with attention being paid to making sure individual schools aren't advertising for companies that compete with NCAA sponsors. The College Football Playoff has also been looking into how to allow patches for that sport's postseason. Some NBA teams make eight-figure sums on selling parts of their team uniforms to advertisers. Sports Business Journal reported earlier this month that research has shown college football and basketball teams could earn between $500,000 and $12 million for their patches. It's the latest move for schools to help bankroll the $20.5 million in revenue they're allowed to share with players under new rules that went into play this school year. It comes about 18 months after the NCAA approved allowing schools to place logos on their football fields. "The Cabinet's vote today reflects the ongoing commitment of Division I members to drive additional revenues and fully fund" the new player benefits, said Illinois athletic director Josh Whitman, who chairs the Division I rule-making body. The NBA, NHL and Major League Baseball have all approved advertising on their uniforms over the past nine years, with the NFL standing as the last major American league to not tap into that revenue stream.
  8. Should be 16 with the 4 P4 champions get an auto bid then the next 12 best teams. 1v16 and on, no first round byes and the first 2 rounds are played at the higher seeds home stadium. Then the semis & natty payed at a neutral site.
  9. Somebody needs to walk me through this “crisis” and explain it to me like I’m three. Roster sizes haven’t shrunk, they’ve stayed the same while scholarship limits have gone up. The portal should be one big game of musical chairs with enough roster spots for everyone once the music stop. Who or how are all of these players getting displaced? Who are they being replaced by? D2 guys moving up? I have a suspicion that the portal is filled with guys that either got cut or are out of eligibility anyways and wouldn’t be on rosters even in a pre-portal world. Surely there are some that are currently overpricing themselves but they still have an opportunity to lower their demands and make a roster. Everyone who is viable will be on a roster. Where is the crisis?
  10. Age has a different value in different sports, Pele won his first World Cup at 17 and Lamine Yamal won his first league title at 15.
  11. SMH….fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. Texas is teetering on complete malpractice. You add all these weapons and you don’t hit the real weakness of team to at least raise the floor of the unit. We didn’t need all world to upgrade. This shouldn’t have been this hard to get a starting guard we can feel comfortable about. Hope is not answer.
  12. Vic says he believes Harmon is the best pg in the country, she was outplayed by SC’s guard, let’s see if she can outplay Chavez.
  13. Chris Jackson at Pflugerville Weiss. Jordan Frohock pictured above. Tre Moore also was on campus last week for the junior day.
  14. I mean, Jerry West did tell Shaq that Kobe Bryant was already better than him when Kobe was 17 in July 1996.
  15. That's great advice for most. You want to be the best, read Homer, Plato and watch Kobe.
  16. I can deal with 12…the problem is the completely unfair JMU/Tulane type games that do not represent nearly the “best 12 teams.”
  17. Reading the Bible can impact you more than you’d imagine.
  18. Never said suck but that isnt a natty oline and rb situation. How bout u bet the house on a natty then if ur so confident they figured it out.
  19. After that go to Aristotle and Plotinus.
  20. So the committee could rank us 11 and ND 12 and they get in and we’re left out. Marvelous. All that means is the committee would go against their judgment in that situation and rank ND either ahead of us or 13. They won’t let it appear ND got in because of that agreement.
  21. Arch might not be Kobe, but we do want him to be the best.
