    PSU does get players drafted, just not enough of them. I think that a couple of players were drafted from this past team.

    Does Pat know?

    Considering some of the other schools in the Big 10, I don't think that it's surprising that PSU isn't in the top three in NIL for football, which doesn't mean that its NIL budget isn't competitive in that sport. Also, depending on the direction of the program, it has a chance to increase a lot...

    That's true about the ACC and Big 12. However, you would think that getting a chance to play schools like UCLA, USC and Oregon in baseball would be attractive. Also, PSU actually had respectable seasons in 2024 and 2025 and I thought that they were becoming a competive program, but this past...

    While watching WV this past spring, I heard the annoucers say numerous times that they had a lot of Junior College and D-II transfers. Also, the catcher, who's going to be a high draft pick next year, is from Pittsburgh Central Catholic. One of their pitchers played with my nephew in travel...

    Flying soccer and field hockey teams, etc., to and from the West Coast cannot be justified. Sports like those, if they want to remain non-club, should be in regional leagues much like the NCAA hockey leagues like Hockey East. In reality, sports like those probably should be club sports.

    It's amazing to me that WV has become a power and even Pitt is decent.

    Does Pat know?

    I love soccer, but unless the new Taj Mahal soccer building mostly was financed privately, then that probably was misspent money. Also, the new field hockey field has a grandstand that is nicer than a lot of lower level football programs like Duquesne; again, that probably was misspent money...

    Does Pat know?

    If only the basketball program had a sugar daddy like the hockey program does or did. In all seriousness, when compared to almost every SEC school and probably most Big 10 schools, PSU, like OSU, has a bloated athletic program that probably needs to be downsized so that money can be pumped into...

    Does Pat know?

    So what was PSU’s NIL budget for basketball in 2020 when PSU was somewhere around second place in the Big 10 as late as February and would’ve made the Tournament if it hadn’t been canceled, or in 2023 when PSU made the Big 10 Championship game and the NCAA Tournament and beat Texas A & M in the...

    Some might be interested: Beau Pribula update

    I totally agree. The original concept of NIL was for players to be paid for other entities making money from selling jerseys with their names on the back or their images being used in video games, which was entirely appropriate. It never was intended to be a play for pay like SMU did in the...

    Geno Lewis looks good playing for the Ottawa RedBlacks in the CFL.

    I think that the name refers to the clothing that the old Canadian lumberjacks used to wear (the red and black flannel shirts). Their mascot is a lumberjack who saws a piece of wood after every td.

    OT: NBC Sunday Night Baseball Broadcasts

    It was so bad to me last night that I actually turned on the CFL game.

    OT: NBC Sunday Night Baseball Broadcasts

    Baseball probably is my favorite pro sport, and I detest that production so much that I mostly have stopped watching the Sunday Night games.

    OT: NBC Sunday Night Baseball Broadcasts

    My problem is that he is being made to act like a talk show host rather than a play by play guy. IMO, it diminishes the actual game, but maybe the director doesn't think that the actual game is enough to hold the viewers' interest.

    OT: NBC Sunday Night Baseball Broadcasts

    Is there anybody else other than I who detests the NBC Sunday Night Baseball Broadcasts? First of all, there are too many people in and out of the broadcast booth. Second, the play by play guy, who is the Tigers' play by play guy, basically spends the whole game not doing play by play but...
