    A&M to Big 10 rumor

    I kind of like A&M. If they went though I’d pivot immediately to ragging on the B1G for taking the lesser Texas brand, and then we’d just invite/take one more ACC team when that domino inevitably falls, so we still wind up with an even number of teams.

    Which coach walked into the worst situation

    I would give Jones an honorable mention for dealing with Dooley's sins. We had zero players drafted the first two years Jones was here, none, and Heupel had seven. Pruitt at least left some talent in his wake. But that pales to the staggering lack of depth that Heupel had to get us past. There's...

    Here we go....super league?

    I don't think anyone told the PAC-12 it was dissolved, either. Everyone just followed the money. If something comes along offering a great deal more than what the SEC and B1G are pulling in, don't think we're anything special.

    Here we go....super league?

    If someone asked Europe to handle it: Everyone plays everyone else within their region, twelve game season (six home, six away). >50% of every team's roster has to have played high school ball within their region. Pacific recruits California, Central has Texas/Louisiana, South Atlantic has...

    Here we go....super league?

    I'm still hopeful that we circle back around to geographically contiguous conferences in time, after everyone's sick of flying 3,000 miles from Stanford to Boston College to play volleyball. Tell me Stanford and Cal aren't at a disadvantage in the ACC, when all their trips are cross-country and...

    Anyone Else Feel This Way?

    I'll probably watch just to see how long the officiating memo continues to say "let the wookiee win".

    Mulkey, pre-publication: I will straight up sue the Washington Post into oblivion, just because I can Mulkey, post-publication: I won’t even read the Post article but instead will yell about the LA Times.

    Freshman Kaleb Beasley hurt in practice

    I’m optimistic he’ll be fine before fall. I had a clean break of my tibia and fibula and was good within three months or so, had some atrophy of my calf muscles though while I was stuck in a cast and that took a bit to get that strength back. Bummer about being out for spring practice but he can...

    The Official #6 [2] Tennessee vs. [7] Texas Game Thread, 8:00 PM ET, CBS

    Cunningham fouled Aidoo hard enough to hurt himself, which is clearly why it didn’t warrant a call.

    Bad Omen (2)

    Overall, or just in openers in Charlotte on Thursday?

    Bad Omen (2)

    I wouldn’t hate it if Creighton was gassed after the first weekend. Absolutely no bench production: zero points, three boards, and one player with more than five minutes. I have no idea if their rotation has been six players all year, but if so, good.

    Jauan Jennings is a future NFL WR.

    I don’t know, I mean I’d love to see him put up gaudy numbers and I certainly wouldn’t complain about it. And I’m by no means a super literate, Xs and Os kind of a fan. But does that mean a lot more wear and tear? JJ seems like he thrives on contact and has that dog in him, but I don’t know that...

    Jauan Jennings is a future NFL WR.

    I genuinely hope no one tries to plug JJ in as WR1/2 sometime down the road. He brings so much as the 49ers use him now. Slot receiver, hyper-aggressive blocker, Mr. 3rd down, getting under the defensive secondary’s skin. None of that makes him a burner on a go route. He’s getting paid because...

    Still Wide Open this March Madness

    The goalposts sure seem to shift over time. A couple years ago everyone was in disbelief that winning the SEC tournament didn’t have a positive impact on seeding. There was a lot of “well why even bother?” But mail it in instead, and a lot of people sure seem to think the sky is falling. I...
