Anyone know the child ticket admission policy? Didn't see it listed anywhere in the LHSAA manual or on the ticket page.

You stated that thriving communities are at risk because a border wall might go through a national park-fabrication
That national park is essentially an uninhabitable desert and has only 250 people living in it who are employees of the park service and their family.
He didn’t do a great job explaining, but he’s talking about places like Terlingua and Lajitas that would lose its appeal if the park and river had limited access.
The 11,000 crossings are in the Big Bend district. Not the park itself.

There’s a lot more at risk than this with unfettered illegal immigration.
I’m firmly against illegal immigration. I’ve also been to Big Bend, hiked Santa Elena, and waded in the Rio Grande Hot Springs. Border Patrol and park rangers are insanely active in these areas and there’s surveillance everywhere.

Pretty sure it’s manned 24/7 now. Just closed for crossing after 5pm

re: ATT investing $45m to upgrade network in Tiger Stadium

can anyone actually explain what this specifically entails?
Tiger Stadium has a DAS installed. It's been inoperable for a few years following the bankruptcy of the company managing the system. My assumption is ATT has agreed to renovate (or replace) the system in exchange for sponsorship rights.

Yes. St. Aloysius defeated SJV 34-21 and CHS defeated Mercy 40-33.
Both of these seem about right. Either of them attempt to make it a game?

It’s intentional. Clock only stops after made basket in last minute. Ole Miss would let it run down to avoid a 3rd possession.
re: Dayton Flyers - Big East?

I’m all for it but I wonder if the Big East isn’t as motivated since they won’t pick up a new media market?

Yeah but there still aren’t that many. I know a friend of mine lived in Austin and played rec hockey. His league games were at 11pm on Sundays because that was the only time available on the ice.
And this is a transplant metro of 2.5M people.

I mean shorten the course for women such that the approach game and in is as close as you can get it.
No way to make it exact, but can get reasonably close.
The problem with this is you can't account for carry distances, pinch-points, forced layups, doglegs, etc.
If the men are playing a 450yd par 4 with a water hazard at 175 out. It doesn't help if the women also have a second shot at 175 out. Even if their hole is only 375yds long.

Scott had us behind on NIL, so far behind in fact that ole miss was kicking the shite out of our NIL
I know this isn't the main point of the conversation but LSU chose to (now correctly) play the long game when it came to NIL. They knew a few things:
1. Collectives weren't going to remain a thing once the House case was settled.
2. Average fans weren't going to fund direct player compensation long-term.
Which is why LSU kept Bayou Traditions out of the public eye and funded primarily by top-end boosters for 2 years. Only when the House settlement got delayed did they push the program out to the masses for 12-18 months.
This worked out in LSU's favor has the NIL Max program is going to garner far more interest (and money) than average fan support long-term. Which is where Ole Miss is now left scrambling.
Critique Woodward all you want but credit LSU Admin for thinking on a slightly longer horizon than programs like Ole Miss.

Correct. I took their post as sideline. Not necessarily which sideline.

By the way, after watching lots of hoops this weekend, LSU needs to let their students move to the lower level behind the benches. Too many of those seats are taken by old namby pamby blue-haired hens and their feeble husbands.
They were there and stopped showing up. Even with halfway decent teams. This was in the Brady era.
