Nobody else on the ballot came close to getting the 75% of votes needed, including the juicers.

It's kinda cute that they pretend Kent wasn't a juicer.

Quote from: onepost on Today at 07:38:56 PMI know there's a CEO in Wisconsin who's on the Board and wants to spend money that Shaka won't use. He personally bought out Wojo, he was going to personally pay ~$1.3M for Kolek to come back for one more year. And I do know he and others are openly frustrated Shaka isn't using all the resources at his disposal and these are the results.

FYI Kolek said no. Do you know how NIL is structured at MU?

Quote from: MU82 on Today at 07:01:49 PMThere is a string of articles in that thread, including one stating that starting next season, Notre Dame is guaranteed a playoff berth if they are ranked in the top 12. So I'm doubly glad they're not going this year.

As for not playing in an exhibition game, I don't blame them or any other team that turns down the XBox Bowl, Gasparilla Bowl, Pop-Tarts Bowl or, really, any of 'em.

The whole bowl system feels very outdated for pro football.  Would anyone care about the Giants V. Raiders in a one off January game?

Packers will be favored in Denver, IMO.

It will be minimal, though - 1 or 2 pts.

Worried about them

Why?

Smart man.

Creighton embarrassing blowout to Nebraska. Big east sucks

Georgetown was down by five on the road at halftime, but you just can't shoot 1 for 14 from three in the second half and expect to contend. Missing 16 of its final 18 shots of the game (most of which were not threes) didn't help, either.

Quote from: HutchwasClutch on Today at 08:39:04 AMWhat a load of crap for a player shooting the worst he's shot since freshman year.  But increased usage explains that, right? Or just maybe, he simply isn't good enough for increased usage. 

His EFG is always going to look better because he makes quite a bit more 3's than two point FG. 

Even advanced stats can't tell nearly the whole story. If they did, why would we need to bother to watch the games to provide commentary. 

Enjoy being probably last person here defending his performance.  #Skol

This is funny

Quote from: Markusquette on December 06, 2025, 06:58:37 PMWhat are the many ways he's been great? Genuinely curious. Maybe I've missed something. He improved his rebounding numbers.

Overall his trajectory has been disappointing. He's a serviceable bench big man at best for a potential contender. The bigger issue is the sorry state of the other guys up front.

He is in a completely different role this year and he is doing the work he is asked to do at a decent rate

Quote from: HutchwasClutch on December 06, 2025, 08:34:36 PMAs one of our two seniors, he scored 3 on 1-7 shooting and 0-3 from 3.  We lost by a point.  Many open looks.  So yeah, FOH.

Why don't you answer Markusquette what only you're seeing in Gold and how he's been "great in a lot of ways"

LOL none of that is how it works. You need to dig deeper.... and use real stats
