It can. Look at Shaka's first season.

Quote from: Billy Hoyle on February 16, 2026, 04:06:42 PMCongratulations to Buzz. Maryland is still just the second lowest rated P4+BE team in KenPom at 134. Rutgers is the lowest at 153, even after beating Maryland yesterday.

Vanilla Soft Serve II?

If you want to see soft, Freeman is right up there

Tremendous actor.  The Great Santini is a superb novel as well. 

If this had happened in the spring or summer it would be a bigger story.  Regardless, it could take them a year to fix this and it will destroy a lot of wildlife.  Not to mention summer activities on the Potomac.  Do not under any circumstances have your dogs near that water if you're a Scooper in the DC/VA/Maryland area.  And do not eat crab cakes or blue crab.  I would also buy bottled water even though local authorities say it's fine.  Protect your pets and be safe. 

Maryland's guv Wes Moore is poo-pooing Trump's accusation that the feds were not informed about the spillage in time to repair the line. Moore is shoving Trump's crap right back into his face. The whole thing really stinks. I guess "brownout" doesn't always mean electricity voltage that is low. At least it is water borne. If it was in the air if could hit the fan blades of the wind turbines.

Quote from: Pakuni on February 16, 2026, 05:44:16 PMFreeman is barely seeing the court, but also responsible for Creighton's defensive struggles?
Could the loss of the four-time Big East DPOY have something to do with it as well?
And you'll never guess who leads Creighton in defensive box plus-minus.

As for Iowa, that might have something to do with Ben McCollum vs Fran McCaffery.

So he barely plays but his stats are relevant? But I do agree. Going from a great defensive center to an awful one has greatly hurt Creighton's defense. Good point!

He's been an absolutely terrible defender his entire career.

But yeah let's get another awful defender. That'll fix this team's problems.

LSU trying to fire Brian Kelly for cause didn't scare away Lane Kiffin.

I just took the catalytic converter off my car. Next step? Throwing fluorescent lights in the trash.

Down with tyranny!
