Recruiting Football Talk VII

[Jackcrevol]

He also said it is not a good idea to have fans gather at the courthouse and if they do, they may find themselves in the backseat of a cruiser very easily.

in that case...
andy??? i kid.

Pitch count is meaningless, mechanics are king. Poor mechanics will get you no matter the pitch count.

 

[RikidyBones]

WAIT.

We go on the road to RUPP and hang 103 and move backwards, while Houston loses to KS and stays ahead of us...

We lost to South Carolina at home.

Not being an ass. That's sort of what you need to be when you're a judge. Further its good to hear his inpartiality, for all sides. It should be about the Law being applied justly. Not about political aspirations or affiliation.

Not taken that way all. But in today's hyper-partisan world, there are quite a few activist judges out there that do take those type things (politics/career advancement/fame) into account, when they should be irrelevant. My point is that is not in play here. IMHO, this judge will respect precedence and the rule of law, while being fair and impartial.
Given the Alston decision, that is good for us.

He was addressing the legalese more than anything. It’s not about what’s right but what you can prove. Can Tennessee prove it’s being wronged? I’m no lawyer and not interested in lawyerings but I do know how fickle the courts can be over the smallest thing which is what makes me nervous.

Not sure how the legalese works, but the lower federal circuit and also SCOTUS have already ruled that players are harmed by the NCAA's market manipulation. Just read the scotus opinion.

It's merely a matter of whether the courts give the NCAA an exemption from Sherman.

 

[rikberry31]

A postseason ban would be a catastrophe.

I don't think the NCAA will be banned for the postseason.

 

[rikberry31]

Yeah. . . but the talent level was way different when he played. . . no way he could do that today. . .

Oh yes he could. Nolan threw far harder in his prime than anyone today and his curve was unhittable, obviously.

 

[Volnut]

Who's that red team that stole our Power T?

We lost to South Carolina at home.

TruDat... I've tried to forget about that game and had it in my mind that it was the week before... Thanks for the reminder... then yes I guess we should be at 6-8

 

[SoilVol]

Man I wish we'd been able to snatch a win from the Purdue/Kansas/UNC games.

We'd be, without a doubt, Top 4 if we had one of those games. Instead we are waiting for one of them to start collapsing get get a 1 seed.

Purdue and UConn are entrenched at 1 & 2. UNC, Kansas, and Houston could flounder.

Rankings:
AP - 6
NET - 6
ESPN - 4
Coaches - 6

andy??? i kid.

You know he (andy) will absolutely be there. . . bigvoldaddy is in that area, but I dont think he'd show up.

Was being sarcastic

I remember Ron Luciano saying that his eyes couldn't adjust fast enough to see Ryan's fastball when he was calling his game, the ball exploded in to a thousand specks as it approached the plate.

Bobby Witt Jr. Signs 11 year $288 million dollar contract.

Ronald Acuna Jr. Agent should be beating AA door down wanting more for Acuna..

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Is this directed at me? If so, what the heck are you talking about? Where are your "receipts"?

I don't jump to conclusions on such rumors; it's always wait til the facts are known, even against Bama.

Good luck getting what you call "facts" on Bama. That is why they get away with everything...lol.

 

[TheRain]

Charlie Baker doesn't have a clue.

Not even sweating Alabama anymore.
DeBoer can't even get his OC from Washington to stay in Tuscaloosa..

How is he going to get recruits too?

They're falling a lot harder and faster than I thought they would. I'm sure they'll still be above average for at least the next couple of years, but I think they return to what they were pre-Saban a lot sooner than expected.

 

[screenthis]

Looks like some guy backed into it with his dinosaur.

Amazing that it survived all those years.

I was never a huge baseball fan, but collected cards in the 80's (like every other american kid back then, .) I have a few good ones from him. Also have a few of Orel Hershiser. Surprised people don't talk about him more often.

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I thought they might stay at 5

That's what a lot of missed free throws and a ton of missed layups against South Cackylacky get you.

It pisses off because we would have beaten them by 10+ easy if not for having "one of those nights" that the Basketball gremlins like to curse you with occasionally.

In 1988 Orel Hershiser had most dominant season , would eventually break Don Drysdale 's consecutive scoreless innings streak..
