It is an awesome story. IU is the worst program of all time on the precipice of being the king of college football
Who the hell cares about any 2019 comparison? I wouldn’t waste one second on worrying about that.

Probably realizes he could use another year. Good for him.
And, he'd be one year closer to his second NFL contact.

quote:well Kentucky's good point guard is also out, now apparently for the season, with a bad shoulder.
quote:
I know McMahon is not an SEC-level coach, but man, he (and us by extension) has a string of bad luck with injuries.
Injuries happen. Of course, some are more impactful than others, but the coaching staff is paid millions to adapt their scheme and tactics to the players they have. Simply plugging in other players to the exact same scheme, when it doesn't fit their skill set, is malpractice.

quote:even if paying players in the past was widespread (it was, at least for the good players) it was NOWHERE near the level it is today.
This is the very reason why I don’t believe paying players was widespread in the past…because young kids can’t keep quiet about it…
And the transfer rules back then didn't allow the annual feeding frenzy we're seeing now, with no one year sit-out required. So it's just the Wild West, with no regulation or guardrails to protect the game.
So it was nowhere close to the same.
re: Should LSU (or the SEC as a whole) have an ice hockey team?

quote:a couple tweaks of the rules would easily fix that. Plus, the goal is too small, considering the goalie is the size of a sumo wrestler, with all the padding.
Only downside of hockey is the low scoring.

I still root for the Tigers, but my emotional connection to LSU sports, and college sports in general, has been greatly diminished.
The interest is there, but the passion is gone.
College sports is broken.

And yet, you all continue to put money in his pocket by mentioning him in posts. One of you actually called for people to tweet him and directly drive his engagement revenue even higher. Are y'all on the guy's payroll or something?
But for those of you who do like to read media guys, remember what the other posters said - any click on their link or communication with them puts money in their pocket.
Best to simply ignore them.

quote:it's human nature to want to support a winning product.
So will almost any fan base. Sounds pretty fairweather and not a compliment to the fan base.
It's the same across all industries. We all support good restaurants and go to good movies (back when going to movies was a thing.)
If a restaurant has bad food or bad service, nobody goes. If a movie is bad, nobody goes.
Same with sports. If a product is bad, nobody wants to go see it. And merely because the team wears P&G isn't enough to overcome that basic premise.
re: What in the hell does Kim teach at practive.

quote:look, we all love Kim. She's one of the best ever.
Why don't you apply for the WBB head coach position? Contact Verge. Inform him that Kim don't know **** and he should hire you.
But it's still ok to ask questions about what we see on the floor.
Full disclosure: I watch almost zero women's basketball.
But I did watch a good bit a couple years ago when we played Iowa and Caitlin Clark. Kim had Van Lith guarding Clark and it wasn't working at all.
But she never changed - when everyone watching saw that it needed to change. And of course we lost that game.
Even the greatest coaches still have weaknesses, and it's acceptable to ask about it.

Unpopular opinion. Archie was overrated.
If you're judging by his pro career, that's unfair, given that he played for a dreadful team.
re: Remember the end zone interference on Chris Hilton on the final play in 2023 vs Ole Miss
Posted by atltiger6487 on 1/9/26 at 2:16 pm to Alt26
quote:correct - unless the CB tackles a WR, the ref won't throw a flag.
Unless it is totally egregious, officials aren't often going to call a PI on a hail mary. The issue wasn't the defense. It was Chambliss threw a poor pass that didn't give his guys a shot. He threw more of a line drive to the back corner of the endzone rather than putting air under the ball and trying to get a tipped ball
And I completely agree that the final pass was bad. Didn't even give their WRs a chance. That ball needed to be far away from the sidelines so multiple OM WRs could have a chance on a tip. That throw only gave one WR a chance, and it would've been a miraculous catch.
Was really disappointing that they didn't even give themselves a chance on that last play.
