They’ve lost multiple times to double digit seeds recently and they’ve also had other vexing regular season losses (UNC-W), so safe to say it’s a becoming a trend. To that end I completely understand the frustration and think the Cal era has officially run its course. On the other hand, these to...
I think the answer has to be K just based on all of the counting stats like total wins, FFs, national titles, regular season and conf. tournament titles, etc. Dean’s four corners is getting panned a lot I see. Not going to deny that it was kind of lame lol. Only pushback would be that he really ...
No one was comparing the safety of those places. The guy that originally brought up Beale and Bourbon was just using those as examples of places that belligerently drunk people can blend into a crowd, which I think is fair. ...
[quote]I don’t think he was saying it’s unsafe. Just that there’s a bunch of drunk people contained within a relatively small area[/quote] Exactly. I love Nashville, I have family there and visit relatively frequently. Broadway isn’t exactly my scene but I’ve gone out in the area enough on weeken...
Been to all 3. I’m not disparaging them at all, but I would say those are perfectly fine examples of cities that have strips of bars that are crowded and rowdy enough where even an extremely drunk person can wander down the street and still somewhat blend into the crowd. It’s not a hill I’m goin...
[quote]his is completely ignorant.[/quote] Those were just the two places the guy I was responding to used as examples. What’s ignorant about it?...
Broadway on a weekend night is one of the few other places outside of New Orleans and Memphis where the crowd is dense and the people all drunk enough to the point that even someone in as bad of shape as this guy could conceivably “blend in”. ...
Guy has an impressive resume so far, but this would still feel like a big reach for an SEC team. Think you would want to see him go to a conference like the AAC, Sun Belt, MWC, etc. and succeed there first. ...
Sheesh, he’s starting to look like Mack Brown here lol. ...
Yes, sports are always better when there’s true bad blood like this. Obviously you don’t want to see a full scale brawl with punches that spills over into the crowd, but some hard fouls that result in a little bit of shoving and the benches getting in each others faces? Really not that big of a ...

Don’t hate the idea in a vacuum if the officials could handle reviews efficiently. Sadly, they take 10x longer than they should with the reviews they already do and it totally fricks up the flow at the end of close games. For that reason, no to any additional reviews. ...

Most of the time when people complain that something was cooler 20 years ago I roll my eyes, but that really is the case with SXSW. Almost everything is geared towards people with corporate passes. You can still find some cool events worth checking out here and there if you live close by, but ov...
Way back in the day the ACC declared that the winner of the conference tournament was officially the “ACC Champion”, and some fan bases in our conference still cling hard to that. I always thought that was stupid. The conference tournament is fun in its own way, but winning the regular season feels ...
Shame to hear that about Dean. I interacted with him several times at banquets and got my picture with him at a golf tournament once and he was always pleasant enough, but have also heard that he was kind of a reserved and aloof guy with the tendency to give people the cold shoulder. ...

It’s pretty funny considering the previous version had the giant confederate battle flag. The new one is just less overt to most people I guess. ...

It’s been awhile since I’ve lived in NC so I’m not personally very in tune with the state government. The consensus on our message board though is that the people in power at the state level that call the shots for the university system are actually mostly NCST fans, and they’re working hard to pass...
