I'll be the first...

Not a fan of the night game, especially for Notre Dame. If we're gonna do it, why not do it to get some hype for some other game like Minnesota or Penn State or Wisconsin.

Plus, I'm not looking forward to waiting all day for the game. I love being able to go home after and still watch some football while getting some much needed rest.

I'll go with .02 had a large Irish stout and a tall bud light, though now am sitting in math class. Heading back out in 20 minutes!

2 years 10 weeks ago Um, I'll take a fraction

Um, I'll take a fraction below 50%.

You do know they shot around 35% this year, right?

And if he's in the league, he'll make the league minimum of $300,000. Even if he goes back and forth between the two, he's making money and gaining valuable experience.

He'll make no money at school and probably won't gain the same type of experience.

I believe him (maybe not the 'good authority' part).

Manny has nothing to gain by staying. Any progression in his game that he can make at the college level he could do in the NBDL under the supervision of his future employers while making a decent paycheck.

He has very little reason, from a career standpoint, to stay.

Now, if he wants to return to finish his degree and play another year of college hoops because he loves it, good for him. I just hope he makes the best decision for him.

I'm just going to go out on a limb here, but I'm guessing you're taking this out of context.

I know it's pretty much an MGoLaw to hate on Valenti and Foster, but some people make some pretty ridiculous claims.

A quick "mike valenti pope comment" google search turned up nothing, so I find this a little hard to believe (at least in the context you're presenting).
2 years 10 weeks ago I did, several times. Turner

I did, several times. Turner took the shot in complete rhythm, and was allowed to advance the ball without pressure.

We'll agree to disagree, I suppose.
2 years 10 weeks ago Solid pick? The screen was

Solid pick? The screen was about 15 feet away from Turner, so Stu wasn't even playing him tight enough to at all slow down Turner, which is the biggest problem. Stu recovered, but far too late and by the time he was able to get back in front of Turner, Turner had already risen and by the time Stu got a hand up, the ball was practically gone.

Given that Turner is 6'7" and Stu is 6'2", that's pretty uncontested as far as I'm concerned.

But whatever, I've finally moved on. This year was such a disappointment that I just knew that OSU was gonna hit some improbable shot. I just wish that we made it more difficult on them.

On to hockey and Munn North!

2 years 10 weeks ago Well, I don't think that all

Well, I don't think that all of Turner's 3's throughout the year were uncontested. He's also the a NPOTY candidate and practically by definition that means he's a clutch, big time player. Just like Manny, he may take bad 3's throughout a game, but there's nobody else you want in control of the game late.

I'll concede 20% may be high. But I don't think 15% is high.

And does this change if Deibler caught the ball? The same thing applies: we shouldn't be giving up that decent of an open look in 2.2 seconds.
