Not ideal for attendance at the Sun Bowl.

Texas is real good

One of my favorites from a few years ago was Kevink. Always had insider info, and was an interesting read. What happened to him? Didn't see any reference to him leaving this board. Need guys like this around.

Has anyone watched it? It premiered around Thanksgiving. Four parts, I believe.

I’m wondering how much it focuses on his life outside of basketball, which I suspect is as interesting as his career.

Watching New Mexico Bowl, BYU and SMU(I live in Dallas). BYU has 20 players not playing who had significant playing time during the year. Injuries, portal, going pro. BYU can barely field a team.
Ridiculous!

Personal reasons.

So, it looks like an oldie but goodie recruiting tactic has returned.

Hire the 5-Star’s uncle to get him away from Ohio St. Matt Rhule getting creative in Lincoln, Nebraska.


Perhaps this tactic is more effective at getting and keeping an elite recruit?

Just declared. I have no idea how to link his Twitter.

Where will he get drafted?

Another solid win for the ACC on top of their success in the ACC/B1G Challenge.

If Jurkovec, McMillon, and Davis (hopefully) light the ACC on fire next year, could it create a shift in WPIAL recruiting for Pitt?

You’d have to think that local players and coaches could see the effect returning home would have on those players and what it means for them. Heck, Devonshire is already a great example of this. Couldn’t hurt to get a few more four star players whenever they come up in our backyard.

What is the status of the Veilleux recruiting?

Greetings from snowy Oakland, Pitt and North Florida are set to tip-off in an hour. It is the Panthers non-conference finale. Pitt is looking to improve to 8-4 on the season.

Does anyone know if UCLA is dealing with the same roster issues as Pitt? Last I read UCLA’s QB and RB’s status we up in the air if they were playing in the bowl game.

Reinjured? Sick with Flu/Covid?

He didn't even get garbage minutes.

... to what Dior was arrested for.

loses players. Number one recruit in the country for 2024 just opened up his recruitment. We need to get the Duz and Cigs to Phoenix to close the deal

Nothing really surprising here. Just wished this would be regulated somehow. Its insane that COLLEGE sports now have the most unregulated salaray system in the world.

I think overhaul is overstating it. When I saw the headline, i got a bit excited. I was thinking that the NHL was going big. But of course they are not. All they are looking to do is have local rivals play more often and hopefully generate more interest that way. When Sid and Geno retire, 8 games vs the Blue Jackets instead of 3 aren’t gonna cut it.

If I’m the NHL, I’m going outside the box like the NBA has thought about doing and going with a Euro soccer style competition. Problem is, I don’t know how they could do it. I’d like to see an abbreviated league schedule so that every game matters and every goal matters. Think about the excitement for a Tuesday night game in November if the stakes were double what they are now. That’s part of the lure with American gridiron football and world football. Every game matters, whereas other sports that have an 80 or 162 game season have half their schedule where most fans don’t care.

An abbreviated NHL league schedule and a cup competition running concurrently at the same time and giving each team roughly 80 games of gate revenue would be ideal. You’d have the Stanley Cup as the big prize and then a second cup, call it the NHL Cup as a secondary competition. I just don’t know how you’d get there with 32 teams.

Come on Bettman. You can do better. You have a great sport. Be forward thinking. Time to change your Mickey Mouse garage run league into a good one.

Anyone have an SMF type deep thought?

The announcers of this WC game today said something that I think most of us knew already. That is with the exception of SMF when he stated that soccer players run constantly for 90 minutes a game . In fact if I remember correctly, he said they run for over 7 miles in a game (in 90 minutes) and most of them could run a marathon.
Today during the Argentina-Croatia game, they were talking about Lionel Messi (a man who is viewed around the world as one of the top soccer players in the world) and they stated it is going to be hard to tell if Messi hurt his leg or not because he walks around on the field 75% of the time he is out there.
Thank you to the announcers of this soccer game for helping to show that SMF was wrong.
