This is a bad idea. Making it a blanket “1 transfer per person” is too blunt of a tool to dissect every S-A’s situation.

The rule should be that when a coach leaves, all players on that team should be allowed a free, immediate transfer. Outside of that, no transfers should be allowed.

At this point, my expectations will be met if we’re able to field a team.

I have to echo Hal Evans above: Are we mentally prepared for if this goes worse than it did with Larry?

I’m assuming he’ll be back coaching UA once he’s eligible for a work release program.

I don’t like the portal either. I don’t like what it does to teams, and I don’t like what it teaches student-athletes about perseverance.

HOWEVER…it seems totally hypocritical to not allow student-athletes to transfer freely when coaches can “transfer freely”. Why is a kid bound to a school while a coach is not? Why does a student-athlete get…[Read more]

Full commitment’s what I’m thinking of. You wouldn’t get this from any other guy.

I didn’t realize there were even 1,900 college basketball players in the country. This game of musical chairs is getting annoying. We might as well just release every player from every school at the end of every season and every coach can re-recruit them all.

He is…blowing this hire.

I’ve had people I’ve tried to hire fall through for timing-related reasons. I’m glad my boss never told me I “blew that hire”. What an odd comment.

Ugh…the Kings is where careers go to die. And I say that as a Kings fan.

Here’s how I would rank the candidates:

1. Alex Jensen
2. Johnnie Bryant

3. My deceased grandma (may she rest in peace)

4. Craig Smith

So in public, how fanboy do you go? I’m not as interested in how hard we’re rooting internally.

Serious question: What’s the right amount of support to throw behind a conference mate in postseason play? I’m glad to see the PAC12 doing well in the dance, but I don’t want to go zoob fanboy level (I seriously think they will throw a parade if Gonzaga wins the tournament…that’s how desperate they are for anything that adds legitimacy to their…[Read more]

Hypothetically, how many PAC12 games would that team win? I’m thinking more than 1.

If Pope is announced as our next coach, then my first phone call will be to Harlan’s office to ask for Larry to get a contract extension instead.

Did we really pump those guys at their place? I’m shocked.

I picked G’town over CU as my 12/5 upset solely because of how they lost at home to us.

Honestly it didn’t go far enough. He should have cancelled the game and then refused to play them ever again.

Because it is the fault of the car. Legally a bicycle is a vehicle, and when a vehicle hits another vehicle from behind, it’s always the fault of the vehicle that was behind.

Not saying it’s right, but it’s the truth.

You’ve got to feel really happy for our skiers. Last year they were cruising to the championship after 3 of the 4 days (by an even bigger margin than they won by this year), and COVID cancelled the races. No championship was awarded. Imagine your team is winning the national championship football game by 35 points going into the 4th quarter…then…[Read more]
