Consider it done. It's been too long.

I don't believe it is "very get off my lawn" at all; it's just stupidity that was fueled by money at a level these institutions could not fathom pre-cable.

Woody Hayes and Ohio State against John...

Too funny. We did drink together with the lad at Dana's once upon a time. The man is a professional.

I don’t know. The questions you posed in your post shows the complexity in all of this.

The B1G and SEC Schools are going to want as much control as possible. If I’m the athletic Director of...

If there is a donor fatigue factor, or the possibility of a developing donor fatigue factor, then maybe it doesn’t matter. The reason for that would be that some form of course correction with all of...

Scenario 1: “I spent $1 million on that son of a bitch and he proceeds to miss the winning shot that would have advanced us to the round of x!”

Scenario X: “I spent ….. “

I think it could clearly be argued that Quincy Oliveri came in for one year and made that type of connection with the fan base.

I agree with the DWest about all of this: it’s the name on the front...

Wide left.

Is it comprehension or being that far left.

What does that have to do with the babbling idiot?

They can juice him all they want, but it won’t matter.

Debating/open dialogue and reading from a teleprompter, which he can barely do, are very different things.

This is so spot on it's not even funny, not that you meant it to be funny.

If I were a VCU, SLU or Dayton fan, to name 3 familiar examples, I would be beside myself right now. Imagine salmon...

The USC message board is rather ecstatic over the news. Someone there also posted a highlights video.

His primary dream is the NBA. we couldn’t reach mutually beneficial ground with him.

I...

Well, now I will insert myself into this discussion: how do you account for the impact of Steele as Xavier‘s head coach in this scenario?

Easily makes the cut for Xavier’s Mt. Rushmore. He was instrumental in bringing in Father Hoff.

Rest in peace, sir.

Does this happen when Wake Forest decides the timing is good for them to let it happen again, or is something else going on with this "Classic"?

The on again/off again nature of this thing almost...

We have an interesting dichotomy here:

Young athletes who deserve to be paid due to the amount of money they generate for their institutions.

Notwithstanding free market dynamics, the...

Public reps. Too funny.

I stand corrected (I thought they went deeper than that).

Nonetheless, I still like the idea of talented depth that is used strategically. One way to look at it is that Hurley avoided a...

UCONN proved that the "bench shortening" days of college basketball may be over for any program that wants to make serious noise in the NCAAT.

More precisely, it is about having fresh legs and the...

I’ll second that.

It can be argued that NIL is an enabler to such behavior. NIL disparities in a given locker room can cause dissension, but do not automatically cause it.

Frankly, BREEDING is a key determinant...

At least I will come up from Florida to smack my gob at Dana‘s.

The whole thing will not be a total loss.

We are all entitled to our opinions, so here comes mine with respect to Dez: I will be gobsmacked if he leaves Xavier.

Perhaps we could amplify your point by looking at what might be kind of a flipside to all of this: existing players wanting talent to be infused in order to have a better shot at the F4 and a NC. ...
