When I was in college and some girl would show up at my dorm room door, my first question to her was always “is this an official or unofficial visit?”

Quite right. It’s more like polygamy, followed by eloping to a Vegas love chapel for a quick wedding officiated by an Elvis impersonator, followed by a divorce 6 months later when you realize the person you married isn’t as hot as you thought and you’re not tapping as much ass as you thought you would.

If that bugs you, don’t ask how BYU-Provo rolls. They’ll keep trying to date you after you’re married, if you get my drift.

I am honestly not sure how he was able to qualify for BYU considering the honor code.

The what, now? Oh, you mean that thing they have down there that doesn’t apply to athletes…my bad.

6’10” 240 lb?

You’re probably right. But remember, the pandemic has been hard on all of us. Arizona probably had to switch from cash to contactless payments, like credit card or Venmo.

Back to normal? You mean Arizona gets to start paying recruits again?

I actually love how our athletic department refers to them as STUDENT-athletes. College sports in general are doing a disservice to their S-As. 99% of them will be forced to earn their living in some field unrelated to sports.

I’m proud to support a program that truly puts academics first.

Nakada is a real one. Good hire.

My only question is, if kids are going into the portal with a destination already nailed down, then why are so few kids ending up at those destinations? I thought I read somewhere that there were 1900 basketball players in the portal and only like 35 of them ended up getting scholies at new schools?

It’s about time we got the mob involved with the PAC12…

If it is Bill Walton…is it possible to get back into the MWC? Asking for a friend.

This is so true. My son is in the recruiting process right now, and the coaches are trying to find out more about my wife and I than they are about my son, I think. They practically want film of my wife and I watching games.

Seems to me that Smith is seeing his shooting percentages and expecting it will scale with more minutes. After what I saw out of the Running Utes the last two season, I’ll gladly take a SF who shoots 43% from deep.

Why should an allowance be made for a kid making a bad initial choice? It’s a good life lesson: Don’t expect to be bailed out when you make a bad choice. Maybe that would push kids to study schools/situations harder during the recruiting process.

Where we need to have leeway is where a kid makes a good choice and then circumstances change in a…[Read more]

Again, I think there’s a simple solution: Don’t allow players to transfer unless the coach leaves, in which case they can transfer freely anywhere without penalty.

Come home? Why? His production actually dropped off at Minnesota, and he doesn’t even want to be here.

Sorry…I can’t believe I forgot my favorite miniseries of all time.

That’s it. That’s the post.
