Potential overall #1 Seed

Arkansas RPI #1
Bama RPI #2
Texas #4
Florida #5
OU #6

I figure Florida, Bama, and Texas are battling it out for that seed.

Saw DAC 25 years ago at the New Daisy in Memphis. Ties with Chris Ledoux for best concert I have seen.

At least the Winona Ryder’s titties story hasn’t been deemed false. Still a good day.

You are telling me that they can't pony up 5 mil for an elite big to win a title.... I'm calling bull on that one brother....

It’s easy to be a fool with someone else's money.

You boys missing a dang good series if you ain’t watching.

Game 1 - Oklahoma wins 8-7
Game 2 - Arkansas gets their first win over OU in 17 years 3-2. Burnham and Herrin shut the sooner bats down tonight. Was a thing if beauty.

Rubber match tomorrow.

3 ltrs were good, but my go to when terrorizing the city on my bike was a Longneck Mountain Dew from one of those coolers they used to have ice in that would sit at the front of the store.

Then you’d really find joy if you could get them to sell you skoal bandits “for your dad”.

I in full beaten wife syndrome waiting for a bomb.

You wanted isolated, drive up Hwy 7 or Hwy 65 and take some wrong turns on some highways and you'll find isolated.

Just a reminder of why Thiams recruiting could be taking forever.

UCF assistant coach Mamadou N'Diaye shopped himself and star center Moustapha Thiam to schools during the season, all the while still employed by UCF, sources say.

N'Diaye insisted the duo were a package deal as N'Diaye's family runs the Flyingstar Academy in Senegal which helped facilitate Thiam's development and brought him to the U.S.

N'Diaye demanded an above-market coaching salary, guaranteed for two years, which most schools passed on. Cincinnati agreed to pay N'Diaye's $1.6M demand (in addition to the $2M+ NIL for Moustapha).

Cincinnati, a proud basketball program, has not made the NCAA Tournament since 2019.

The seat is warming for UC head coach Wes Miller, who got a huge influx of NIL money this year in a last-ditch effort to turn things around. Thiam is considered a big piece to help doing so and hiring N'Diaye is the cost of doing business.

Cincinnati chose to delay the announcement of N'Diaye's hire for a week because of "optics."

And now you know the rest of the story.

UCF vs. Cincinnati games will be a lot of fun next season!

Once those predator people who rescue you from your third world country get control of you, it's hard to break lose, and I'd suspect N'Diaye is using Thiam again for another come up.
