If you know the answer, be a friend. If you don’t, just ignore the question. Reminding a poster that there is such a thing as Google is just boorish. Don’t waste your time.
Yeah, it’s the best sports package I could find. I’m in California, and Sling let me choose a sports package that includes the SEC network and all ESPN channels. There’s also TNT, TBS, and TruTV for the NCAA men’s tourney. It’s also cheaper than the package I had before, Vidgo, which was okay, but not reliable.

re: Brian Kelly about defensive tackles

Posted by hogeb on 2/7/24 at 2:27 pm
What I saw was his inability to predict which side of a block to pursue. He often got caught angling inside the block when the play ran to the outside.
Best Western’s not bad. Newer than most others.
Kelly came to LSU because of the high bar. He wants a championship and LSU is his best route. Michigan won this year but has had a dismal record in playoff games prior to this. He is building LSU and wants to finish here. He knows LSU is closer to winning another championship than Michigan going forward.
The differences in evaluations at each of the 4 sites is an indication of how subjective they are. An industry average does not fix this variance because these are not real statistics, just different evaluator’s opinions. None of them are better than coaches, which is why offers provide better expectations of how recruits will pan out. The fact that some players on one service are ranked in the top 100 and not even in the top 300 on other sites just proves how unreliable these evaluations are.
He's projected as a late 2nd round pick. He can probably make more money at UK than floating around the G League :lol:
Here is Kentucky Sports Radio's breakdown of the Tigers. KSR does a good job scouting opponents. I think a few Tiger fans might appreciate the how challenging LSU is to play, from an opponent's perspective.

KSR scouting report of LSU
2007 Arkansas. I was there and standing next to a couple from Arkansas :lol:
Denbrock might have left to have full control of an offence since CBK called the plays then. CBK could be offering more control at LSU, like he has at Cincy.
DD is the first site I check each morning. Scott has a balanced perspective that helps frame everything I read on TD :geauxtigers:

I like Lee in the flex spot. I'm hoping he can have similar success as McMath. :geauxtigers:
I grew up in KY but went to college at LSU, so I still follow both teams. They are remarkably similar, actually. Both teams have a tendency to get down early and then rally in the 2nd half. Both team's strength is offensive rebounding. Both teams have point guards who force a lot of turnovers. The starting 5s are pretty evenly matched, though KY probably has a deeper bench. KY's bench and their 3 point shooting are hit or miss, though. If one or the other shows up, they are hard to beat. If not, their defense is usually good enough to keep them in the game, and like LSU, they are resilient. This is going to be a fun game.
Where in the Bay area are you, if I may ask?
There is no better seafood than Louisiana. I currently live in California after having lived in Louisiana and Houston the past 30 years, and I spent plenty of time in Florida growing up since my grandparents retired there. California seafood is just totally different, and while fresh and varied, is less flavorful. And, they don't know how to season anything out here. Florida is close, so I wouldn't quibble too much, but again, I think chefs in Louisiana have a much better sense of how to prepare seafood then anywhere else.

Just my 2 cents.

This is pure science, not applied, so your question is legitimate, but your implied conclusion is extremely naive. Today's technology, including CAT scans, MRIs, nuclear medicine and radiation therapy, are all based on physics discovered over a century ago. We didn't know what the applications would be when those discoveries were made, and we can't predict all of the applications for this new knowledge at this time, but there will be applications that will change our lives. With the accelerating rate of technological development, we may see applications sooner rather than later. I for one, however, am thrilled by the knowledge alone, without the need to justify it, but the applications will come and they could be astounding.

re: Sci Martin Update Needed

You may be thinking of Travez Moore. Sci is waiting on his mom.

:cheers:
Someone in another thread did say he had grade issues, but do we know JUCO or are we assuming JUCO?
I seem to remember that Travez Moore was "put on hold" by LSU after he "committed" because the offer was conditional, but I haven't seen anything about him looking at other schools, so I'm not sure what his status is. Is he history, or could he still be waiting in the wings?

I asked this in a couple of threads and didn't get any responses, so I'm still curious :geauxtigers:
