think a lot of it has to do with the impending breakoff of the P2. lot of these ACC schools who think they have a shot at being included don't want to miss the bus for fear of missing out. if they hit on their hires and get success then they have a shot, if they miss then they weren't going to catch the bus anyway and they'll be right back here in 3-4 years.

but yea it doesn't help when the worst P4 program in the history of the sport wins a natty within 2 years of hiring their guy. I think Cignetti is generational but people see that and they start to dream

NC is close.

D wins Senate State House and all judicial spots on the ballot. R currently needs to win all 3 remaining State Senate seats to keep that but is currently winning in all 3. NC GOP went from having a veto-proof majority in senate to nearly losing it and got wiped out everywhere else

state as a whole trends 24 points from 24 presidential race. in governor race Joe Wilson is going to win by 5ish. 9 point drop-off from Wilson to Graham. Trump ruined it end of story

NC - former governor who has never lost a race vs a relative political outsider who has never held elected office

SC - political outsider running affordability campaign with backing of party vs political outsider who only got it because of Trump and isn't equipped for office

GA - mike collins

FL - incumbent who only kissed up to trump vs a dem socialist and still only won by 2-3 points

Paxton, Marshall, etc. the good candidates (Hinson, Rogers, Collins) are going to be swept away by that tide). GOP screwed themselves and they deserve it

York County (suburban Charlotte) --> 40 point swing toward D
Greenville County (Greenville city) --> 45 point swing toward D
Colleton County (rural Lowcountry) --> 29 point swing toward D
Spartanburg County (Spartanburg city) --> 46 point swing toward D

Goodness gracious

10 minutes after results started to come out. South Carolina spiking blue on all prediction markets. Trump's hold on the GOP is very likely over after tonight

Syracuse +9.5, get Angeli back and UNC's offense is not good. under could be better

defense attorney should face consequences for jury intimidation. don't exactly know grounds for that in Mass law but outing to the world that you've got 11-1 and trying to get him removed is unprecedented. unbelievable amount of pressure for 1 man to face, hope he holds out

NCAA is dead. Either it gets resurrected with an antitrust exemption or we get a breakaway league. I personally don't see a ton of long-term value with a breakaway league, unsure of what rules and reforms they would put into place, but could be interesting

curious to see where the money goes, people are spending wild levels of cash to chase championships yet there's a huge demographics cliff colleges are going to face and many are already circling in piles of debt. at some point the money train will come to a screeching halt I would think

correct

he signed a two-way deal and entered the draft which means he gives up his NCAA eligibility. in this day and age of college sports I dont know if that means anything anymore, not the same scenario as Bediako or Nnaji considering he never played a g-league game but was used as part of an NBA trade
