It can still be the case that their NIL collective is not in great shape and we got outbid for him simply because their staff values him more than ours. It's not necessarily indicative of a collective's health. It's a labor market. Just because a firm wins the bidding for specific labor doesn't...

Yeah, there has to be some significant penalty attached to the agreement to prevent this or it would be the worst negotiation ever (on the ACC's part). There's no way the conference would agree to terms with them and then give them all of this time to shop around for a better offer that can be...

Throw a couple Malbon logos on this stuff and you could sell this whole outfit for $1k today. A true visionary.

Why does it always come back to someone waving their hog around at a bunch of kids at the YMCA?

I do my best work because of my interminable paranoia of being fired. My therapist says it's my "anxiety" but I call it my #grindset.

If you do something for it now then they'll have nothing to work for in the future. Is that really the tone you want to set?

Yeah from everything I've read if WKIII doesn't end up at Wake it's not just because we got outbid by UCLA. I mean we still could be, but it seems like it would be a conscious decision by our staff not to chase him. Their NIL situation sounds like a dumpster fire. Or all of the rumors about...

It's 100% this. It's the same reason why hockey is an objectively more violent and physical sport, yet you see less career ending/changing injuries, like dudes blowing out their knees and rupturing Achilles. The types of movements and the speed at which you need to make them to play in the...

Semi-related, but I was at the Valencia-Betis match yesterday and it was the worst officiating I have ever seen in-person in a top league. A crowd warning was issued because someone threw a bottle at the ref and the warning was the only thing the crew got right. Absolute mess of a match. I...

Nothing like throwing "identifies" in quotes and intentionally misgendering her to show you're a serious, capital-J Journalist

I'm Doral Moore. If you don't smoke Dorals then fuck you.

Salutations. It is I Nikita Mescheriakov. Do you go to Pit and make mad when they deny you real babka? I too. Use secret writing "nikitamescheriakovbabka2012" on the internet webpage Goldbelly for exceptional trading of veritable Belarusian babka.

My guess is that Hamas doesn't have 40 of those types of hostages to release either because there aren't 40 living hostages meeting the criteria or because some number of these hostages are being held be decentralized groups over which they have no control, like bym suggested. From a...

And the flight tracking hasn't even peaked yet

They're paying Pearl $5.4mm/year base right now, so not unreasonable to think they could offer him a significant increase. Not that he would get Pearl money, but it could be a big bump in pay. With that said I don't think Auburn would go after him anyway.

I've spent a decent amount of time in Iowa at this point and I'm pretty convinced that culturally there's a bluntness they picked up from all of the Scandinavians who settled there, at least in northern Iowa. There's a measured, curt turn-based conversation style and they're ok with long...

Maybe this will be his Roy Williams "I could give a shit about North Carolina" moment /s No way he's leaving

Nvm already answered that

Which recent teams would you take over them? In the past 20ish years is I think I'd have them behind 2012 Kentucky and ahead of 2007 Florida and 2008 Kansas. That's definitely getting into the goat tier of teams.

Agree that Edey can find a role as a backup center. The thing that would worry me most about him isn't his offense being exclusively focused in the low-post, but his defense. He's obviously a great rim defender, but I'm not sure he can switch off and effectively defend NBA forwards, which is a...
