  1. Mack Brown doesn't get it. It's not about Belichick succeeding. It's about having Jordon Hudson around to be the face of the athletic department.
  2. In my opinion, she is series MVP if we win this.
  3. Because 25 batters faced all year. Has now thrown one strike while walking 2 batters. Outsmarting himself move.
  4. Goode is POG so far for that catch and the 2 run dinger.
  5. I don't think I ever saw someone so completely demolish the competition on the last day of a major on a day when he couldn't hit a single fairway on the front nine.
  6. As well as being "intoxicated due to the introduction of cannabis/CNS depressants" and being "unable to operate a vehicle safely." https://sports.yahoo.com/article/texas-longhorns-football-player-arrested-195154702.html
  7. Big risk here. Criminal defense attorneys almost always try to dissuade clients from filing civil litigation while the criminal process is ongoing. Filing a civil defamation suit after being arrested on a criminal charge carries real consequences in both forums. State prosecutors and the complainant's attorneys have to be loving this and trying to get him deposed ASAP. There is no 5th Amendment privilege in a civil case, so he has to face questions about damn near everything. Taking the 5th on anything will bite him in the ass in the civil case. Any answer given can later be used against him in the criminal case. I can't believe he filed this lawsuit. Except . . . he filed in federal court. Maybe he (or his legal team) hopes for a diversity fight before any depositions can be scheduled.
  8. What a change in board opinion about Ewers in 3 months and 5 days.
  9. Judge Wilken, asking about the settlement being intended to cover the next ten years, affecting hundreds of thousands of people in the future who are not yet in college: “Can you have a class of future people who aren’t known yet? ... Can they be understood to release claims for things that haven’t happened yet?" A little later she asked: "Is that the death knell?"

  10. I don't see how anything I said can be interpreted into a suggestion that I think Vokeitaitis is some kind of recruiting miss. My intro was "I'm happy for this pick up," and my conclusion was "could be awesome, but don't give up on him if he appears to be something less than what you hoped in his first year here." I just don't think anyone should expect a 30 mpg, 20 ppg, and 10 rbg guy in year one in the SEC, but if we add Traore, then they will split the time, and that will work well for us. We will definitely have upgraded in the middle with those additions.
  11. I'm happy for this pick up, but I'm not over the moon about it. He's a true freshman, so there is plenty of room for improvement, but he's not a plus shot blocker, a guy with big offensive range, or a guy you can expect to beat a guy of similar size and strength on the block. He is someone who seems to understand the game very well for his age, and he is terrific at positioning. Check out his transfer portal highlight vid, and you will see what I mean. There is nothing there that wows you with his athleticism, but it is a terrific exposition of understanding how to get into position to score. Give this guy 3 years of S&C training, and he could be awesome, but don't give up on him if he appears to be something less than what you hoped in his first year here.
  12. Ok, you got me with that one. But I was thinking mainly of perimeter first players.
  13. Not really. James had a really good year at it. Atchley was killer as a junior, but that was 17 or 18 years ago.
  14. I've been trying to think of anyone we have had in the last 15 years who was both a plus 3 point shooter and a guy who could sky and be a great target for a lob. Nothing comes to me.
