When Shaka tells Tre, Jones, and Hamilton that they are not Top 150 D1 school players and they need to move on.....Don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you.....

USA attacks Iran because they had intelligence that if Iran was attacked by Israel, then Iran would retaliatory attack US forces in the region.

Why did the USA not just tell Israel to not attack Iran? Problem solved

So, Israel is controlling the USA sovereignty?

Yes. I yearn for simpler times when our leader was influenced by innocuous things like his pee tapes.

Quote from: Pakuni on March 02, 2026, 02:20:51 PMWhy would we want the athletic department to spend its limited resources on 14th and 15th men who never play? I'd prefer they boosted the payroll for guys who do play, or may play an important role in the future.
Upperclassmen who don't play = waste of resources.

Practice is highly overrated.
Why not have 8 or 10 scholarship players?
Marquette is a relatively small school, let's admit that.
I'd rather have 8 players than 15 so-so players.
Good players don't need to practice, they need to play.

Quote from: Pakuni on March 03, 2026, 02:38:46 PMRubio is changing his story yet again, now saying we attacked Iran because they were about to attack us.
Which is even less credible than yesterday's justification.

I'm imagining a 24 Jack Bauer type story to be coming out soon.

Quote from: wadesworld on March 03, 2026, 03:45:20 PMHe was 8th in pass block win rate for centers and gave up only 1 sack.  Linderbaum would be an upgrade, and centers are replaceable.  But chances are the Bears will be worse at C next year than they were this past season.

He allowed 31 pressures, 3rd worst rate in the NFL.

Last quarter of the season and the playoffs, he was not good. Maybe he was hurt and dealing with an injury that forced his retirement.

Take the Rams game, he was bullrushed all game, ended with a PFF grade of 44.1 (worst game grade of any center in the 2026 playoffs).

Also, I'm afraid to ask dude why he's saying, "almost 309" after talking about "50 games a year". Hopefully it was supposed to be "have played 300" and just a typo, but I have a feeling there's some insane, illogical math going on inside his head, so probably better that we don't even ask.

I agree. Not great but freeing up $10M in cap space softens the blow.

No, no, no. That was yesterday's spin.
Once they realized what a bad look that was, they came up with today's spin - that Iran was about to launch a conventional war against the United States and we needed to act first. Very believable.

61 - but ... wait ... we have ( or had ) posters here say they need a player or two ! MU is almost a bubble team ...lol. 

You're right ... this roster is AWFUL... they need 3 or 4 players.

But don't hold your breath on coach
