    Jerry on the World Cup

    Nice to read Jerry's perspective. Glad he had a great time. I bet it was crazy out there with the english.

    Mavericks hiring Michigan’s Dusty May as head coach in NBA stunner

    Championship or not, he still has to rebuild after every season - just like everybody else. Look at Hurley. Back to back championships and he's still gotta play the same game everyone else does with the rebuilding every season. That's why he actually took a moment to consider the lakers' offer...

    Mavericks hiring Michigan’s Dusty May as head coach in NBA stunner

    Can't really blame him. One could say coaches have less loyalty these days than ever, but that goes more than double for the players right now. Who needs the headache, if one can avoid it? College athletics is so unstable right now. NIL has turned everything on its head. Why not get out of...

    Just A Clarification, Are We Officially A Full Roster Now?

    Apologies if this has already announced numerous times. I try to keep up, but I'm not as diligent and well-informed as most of you. Anyway, is the roster officially full now? I thought there was talk of there being one remaining spot - preferably being saved for a backup big. Or was Copeland...

    53 years!!!

    I can't disagree with your assessment. The only thing I can say is this was a golden opportunity which they completely blew. Knicks deserve a lot of credit - they earned this title - but the Spurs could have won each and every game....and then seemed to inexplicably fall apart when it mattered...

    53 years!!!

    The Spurs are absolutely total choke artists. It's astounding to see how astute they are at blowing games. Nothing quite like it. As a fan of neither team, that was my big takeaway from the series. They could not finish if their loved one's lives depended upon it. Shameful. That said, Congrats...

    World Cup

    Croatia, as always, gets no respect. Always being slept on while they continually advance to the final matches. When are people gonna wake up and realize these Croatians know how to play?

    Terry Copeland to…

    For an admittedly relatively ignorant fan, this is a pretty significant get for us, right?

    Ex-Iowa coach Fran McCaffery, wife accused of trying to get longtime radio voice fired in brutal allegations

    I'm unaware of the connection here. Was he a candidate around the time we hired Willard?

    Good day for us. Let's keep the momentum going.

    Chris Nwuli of Rutgers

    He'll definitely be playing for a significantly better New Jersey program. That much is certain. He has made the right choice. Welcome aboard.

    UConn’s Hurley says $14 million is minimum NIL budget to be ‘in contention’ in college basketball

    Gotta think Hurley is about at the point where he will strongly consider the next viable offer down the NBA coaching turnpike. I always thought college athletes - essentially those in major sports - should be well compensated for their contributions to their institution, but this has gone...

    ON3's Excellence Strikes Again

    Forgive my naivete, but why did we get involved with onthree in the first place? Did they buy Rivals? Seems like everything is essentially worse since they took over.

    New March Madness Format

    The obvious question is, if you're going to expand it, why stop at 76? It's only going to hold for a mere handful of years until it inevitably gets expanded yet again, right? So what's all this pussyfooting around? Just open the floodgates, already. The ultimate goal is always to make more and...

    Nathan Mariano

    Never thought I'd see the day where we got a G-League castoff on the team. Then again, we've crossed a lot of "never thought I'd see" lines in the last handful of years when it comes to college sports. Can't blame someone for being skeptical, but perhaps it ends up being a good move for both...
