re: How is Cheba Hutt?

The theme of it being over-the-top stoner/weed-centric is kind of ridiculous (i.e. naming their sandwiches after some varieties of weed and other stoner lingo). But otherwise, the food is pretty good. So don't let the theme deter you from trying it. ...

re: 13 wins = 38%

[quote]Pm's last year was 13-17. Got in and won a regional. 13 wins is noted and will get in with a decent rpi. Book it[/quote] That was a little bit of an odd year in that games across the nation were still being routinely cancelled because of "safety concerns". :lol: That means the committee...
[quote]They didn’t go convince 89% to vote dude.[/quote] They didn't have to. All they had to do was convince ($$$) them to give their mail-in ballot to the campaign worker. The "campaign" saved them the trouble of actually filling it out and mailing it in. With widespread, and largely unr...
[quote] As long as it's collectively bargained, there should be no problems with compensation.[/quote] In theory, yes. But I think it will be a lot more complicated in reality. Namely Title IX. In a free marketplace the football and men's basketball players would command the highest salaries b...

[quote]LSU is basically in the exact same scenario they were in 2021 if you look at it from a record point of view[/quote] Yep. A lot of similarities. LSU didn't do anything all season against good SEC opponents except for a series win vs. (then) No. 6 Ole Miss. However, they won their final...

re: Nerves as a Coach

Posted by Alt26 on 5/6/24 at 1:45 pm
Yep. I had the opportunity to coach 5-6 year old basketball this year. About 30% of the players liked playing and wanted to win. The other 70% didn't really give a shite. We practiced once a week for an hour. The attention span was approximately 20-30 minutes, at best. We would get to the gam...
1. Even though there is technically no "cap" on the amount of teams from one conference that can reach the NCAA Tournament, I think it is reasonable to assume the committee won't take more than 10...if that. 2. Order of finish in the conference standings is completely irrelevant to the committe...
[quote]Hamas spends all their time trying to win the PR war, instead of the actual war.[/quote] That's because Hamas can't win an actual war with Israel. Best they can do is garner sympathetic help from western nations (which they are, to some degree, doing) to help them achieve whatever their a...
[quote]No, LSU is tied for 11th place in the SEC. The most to ever make the NCAA tournament is 10 teams, which all came from the SEC 4 different seasons. Good thing is they play the 10th place team and the team they are tied for 11th with the final 2 weekends. Win 4 of 6 and they should get in. Win ...

Markets fluctuate with variables. Supply and demand. 4 months ago the supply of players was higher. Now it’s not and demand is higher. But that doesn’t mean OVERPAYING because of limited supply is a good investment. When you start overpaying for average players you run the risk of significantly ra...
This is the result of the ever increasing suspended adolescence. She may be 24 years old in age, but she probably has the mindset and maturity of someone who is not THAT much older than 12. Probably more like 24 going on 15. In previous generations the gap in maturity between 24 and 12 was VAST....
I agree wholeheartedly. People cheering on frat guys to disband the protest are shortsighted. This round of virtue signaling isn't resonating with even the uniformed morons in the US. You have a handful of college kids trashing campuses and making absurd demands in support of people (sorry, Ham...

[quote]I agree, I was more so referring to what I interpreted his intended role was. He was a bit thicker and more aggressive offensively. But initially I assumed his role was as a wing who could be used to exploit mismatches, slash and finish around the rim, but not necessarily facilitate the offen...
At this EXACT same point in the season last year Auburn was 25-18 (9-12) (6-10 on the road) heading into a home series vs. #1 LSU. In comparison, LSU is currently 29-17 (7-14) (5-9 on the road) Auburn took 2/3 from LSU. They then swept Ole Miss (on the road) and Missouri (home) to end the sea...

[quote]Money talks and LSU fans don't wanna spend. Well, they dont wanna spend their own money.[/quote] Perhaps it is a case of LSU not wanting to OVERSPEND for average players? Like it or not, college coaches now have to take on the role of GM...in a marketplace where there is no salary cap o...
[quote]Jimmy Lindsey was away from the team during fall camp. Bk wanted until the season was half over to make a move and bring in someone.[/quote] He didn't wait until "half the season was over" to bring someone in. He moved John Jancek from analysts to DL coach. Jancek had been a DC at multip...
Ah. Got the dates wrong. Well, here's to hoping he picks the good guys!...
