What? Every pro sport has players under contract for multiple years. Why can’t college players be under contract too? ...
[quote]This board hates anything that becomes popular, why would caitlyn Clark be any different?[/quote] I’m saying it was a good call. How is that hating on Caitlyn Clark?...
Doug Gottlieb is all upset about the Iowa-UCONN call and he posted this clip of at least 2 illegal screens not being called on a Steph Curry 3-pointer to prove his point. But, if you’ve watched Golden State over the years, ESPECIALLY in the playoffs, their whole 3-point offense is predicated on o...
That SHOULD be called. Same with player using their arm to clear out a defender on a drive to the basket. All that stuff should be called. Defenders have to be able to move with the ball handler. They also need to be able to go straight up to contest a shot. You see the offensive player constant...

That absolutely WAS a moving screen. No question....

This is such a different dynamic than male players going to the NBA. They will make more money if they stay through NIL. It only makes sense to stay and take another run at this. Women’s college basketball is soaring right now because players stay and you can actually follow great players and tea...
Just trying to shoot down low with 3 people on you didn’t get it done. We couldn’t shoot from outside so we had to go into the post, but the offense was really kind of a disaster. As was the defense on Clark. Did Mulkey coach this game? Was there any coaching at all?...
So many bad shots right at the rim and missed shots. That stretch in the 3rd is what lost the game. Terrible shooting by the Lady Tigers. Clark was phenomenal, but even with all that if LSU shot better, they would have been right in this at the end. Angel making FTs would have helped as well....

Great movie. I saw it for the first time a few years ago and expected it to be good, but overrated. I was wrong. It was spectacular. I was surprised at how many limes I knew from other films and forms of entertainment. It’s so influential. Has to be a top 10 movie of all time. ...
If SCOTUS votes that Trump doesn’t have immunity and the criminal trials continue and if he is found guilty of felonies of any kind before November, what does that mean for the election? Obviously, people might not vote for him, but what if he wins and is awaiting sentencing? Or is already sentenced...
This show is incredible. I read some criticizing it to begin with, but I’m really liking it. That is all. ...
It's two games for me. 2006 LSU vs. Auburn. LSU receivers getting tackled with the ball in the air on multiple occasions. Horrible calls or no-calls by the refs throughout the game. LSU loses at the end. Should have won that game by 2-3 TDs. 1/9/12. I was as angry as you could be at Les Mile...
The South is already the most populous and economically strong region of the U.S. The only part of the South that isn't exploding in growth is Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, West Tennessee, and Arkansas (except for NW Arkansas) - the Deep/Mid South. Everything else is really on fire. If we can...
[quote]There's an easy fix. Go back to the the sit out when you transfer rule. The only free transfer should be going from Power 5 to lower school or if coach leaves.[/quote] This is exactly right. We're in the Wild West of NIL and constant transfers as allowed by the courts. But, have the courts...

Is Taylor out there making a huge deal about climate change? I haven't heard that. She doesn't really seem to be all that political overall. Maybe a comment or view here and there. I don't expect her not to have any opinions on things, but she doesn't seem overbearing about it. Maybe I just have...
He should talk to her about it, but not divorce her. She apologized and is trying to fix it. What about forgiving her? Maybe she went through something earlier in life that makes her afraid of being left alone with not resources. It’s worth working through with her. A guy who would leave his wife...

What does the last line mean? It’s worded strangely. [quote]Similarly, education needs to offer flexibility, and less scientific subjects (including, of course, economics) may be more important in creating future economic success.[/quote] Does this mean economics as a subject has value to hel...
