I keep checking in expecting to see some sort of official statement on Cade Mays, but those dirty SOBs are just gonna leave him hanging, aren’t they? What an absolute crock of horse sh!t.

If he’s on the plane like AP says, I’m a little optimistic.

Edit: nevermind. Just saw the new development

Bro I can't get it out of my head. I didn't mean to watch it. I honestly thought someone was joking on him until I saw it. Stupid twitter.

I watched it after Rand Paul tweeted out his dad was okay. Catching a stroke early can save a life and I wanted to see symptom/warning signs in case I see it in person.
Hard to watch especially since he's a political hero of mine and hope I never witness it live but really glad he's okay.

Tom Mars posted earlier the SEC has NO published guidelines. It appears to me they don't even have a formal (at least made public, like the ncaa) process for these things. There is no flowchart on how they decide things, any appeal process, etc. I'm pretty sure it's just Sankey winging it.

Mars called this "arbitrary and capricious".

That’s only because it is. And the member schools accept it, even to their own detriment.

Damn, seriously... I know everyone is upset on the Sankey thing... I agree... we always go back and forth on here, but geez Sankey, you know EXACTLY what you are doing here by not announcing anything at this point... If he has half a brain he knows that at this point, no matter what he says or when he says it, the entire UT fanbase is pissed, and going to stay pissed at him. He also knows that a kid, a kid mind you, is sitting and just waiting to see if he is going to be allowed to play ... talk about a power trip this dude must be on... there's no excuse or no paperwork, or interviews... nothing... nothing from just stepping up and making a decision. This is pathetic and he is a pathetic person right now with how he is treating this situation and fanbase... F this guy...

There's already an SEC rule in place regarding this issue. I don't think the commissioner will make any announcement on these three players. That's just my take.

Hey, how are you?

I'm good. It is kind of you to ask!
Currently holding off on radiation because until the cancer gets worse (seems weird, lol), they said the radiation side efrects would be worse than than just monitoring the cancer and its spread for now. Helping nurse my wife back to health after a hysterectomy. It's been an eventful summer for sure.
I am so ready for kickoff!
Hope you and yours are doing well.

Off topic but I recommend the Netflix mini series/documentary Challenger: The Final Flight

Very well done.

Watched the first episode a few nights ago. Depressing. It's insane that we as a species have had as few accidents and deaths in spaceflight as we've had. Literally strapping people onto gigantic rockets that create massively powerful explosions that last long enough to propel them straight into space...and then we somehow manage to bring them back safely. Most of the time, at least.

It really is a well done series. Captivating even though you know the outcome of events. I was in 5th grade At West Hills elementary in Knoxville, and they wheeled a tv on a cart into our classroom (just like the opening scene of the series). We were all shocked and dumbfounded when it happened.

How many with Bray? With an actual defense...Bray could have dominated too.
Click to expand...

I defended Bray a lot when he was our QB but he melted under pressure even when he had no reason to. He was a first half player who did great when things were going well but he was prone to meltdowns at the slightest adversity -- not just because defense was terrible.

It was better when we faked the landing in a Culver City sound stage, much safer.
