    Just a reminder- I was right once aGAIN- this time on Cohen

    One day before NCAA BB Selection Sunday: "My source tells me we are IN the tourney" One week before Rick Ray is hired: "The next coach will be from this ******** list from my source" (list doesn't include Rick Ray) During baseball season: Argues with mythical strawman that Cohen shouldn't be...

    My review of the weekend in Starkville, not that anyone cares.....

    The experience at MSU sporting events is way overproduced. There is not a timeout or lull in the action that is not filled by some video, commercial or some gimmick. The band stays silent during timeouts in basketball while the PA guy reels off a minute of advertisements. Then the stupid five...

    Would college basketball be better served with a 24 second shot clock

    NBA teams move the ball into the frontcourt with pace and quickly get into their sets. College teams many times walk the ball up the court and take a good 10-15 seconds just to get into their offense. Makes for a slow game to watch.

    random Sunday thoughts on our coaching search

    When I googled "best college basketball assistant coaches" and read some of the rankings that have been produced, Joe Dooley's name keeps popping up. Kenny Payne never gets mentioned. Antigua is the Kentucky assistant that gets mentioned. Dooley keeps being mentioned as a great recruiter, and...

    How much is Rick's buyout?

    With only one year left on the contract, I can't see it being a huge amount.

    I still support Rick...

    is not the equivalent of winning 7-8 games a year in football. It's just not.

    Legitimate discussion - Since we complained about the Hump's atmosphere...

    I don't understand why they interrupt whatever music is playing to blow out the gym with rap for five seconds. And it's not because I don't like rap, it just makes no sense. It is supposed to get people back into the game I guess, but it actually has the opposite affect. More pep band, less...

    My morning after bowl notes

    Catch looked pretty clean to me. Caught it nicely with his hands.

    After watching "Catching Hell"...

    It's admirable that he hasn't sought fame or money, yes. Bill Simmons made a great point and said that he is really the greatest Cubs fan in that he knows what type of negative emotions he would conjure in Cubs fans by appearing publicly. Would it have been good for him personally to give an...

    After watching "Catching Hell"...

    Bartman has not handled it well. There was a great article on ESPN about the other guy that went for the ball, and he said if he had been the one to touch it, he would've gone a totally different direction than Bartman. He would've opened a themed restaurant called "Foul Ball", done commercials...
