I stated in the previous…

I stated in the previous thread I think he needs to go, but I just don't see it happening.

He's going to be covering…

He's going to be covering her for at least a few years as the Indy Star sports writer. I hope she just refuses to acknowledge him whenever he asks questions at a presser.

Do the payments have to be…

Do the payments have to be uniform to all players? Spending as it currently is (not talking about directly paying players) isn't even close to uniform (see different facilities between say the football team and women's field hockey for example). And mandating equal payments to everyone is just silly, you wouldn't run a business that way. There's a reason upper management makes way more than say a secretary, etc. So it would stand to reason that the school would have more funds for the teams that bring in money (men's football and basketball) compared to all others that basically lose money.

Wasn't PSU still putting 8…

Wasn't PSU still putting 8 in the box on most of those plays? If so, doesn't seem like they were respecting the pass.

That's a lot of stats to…

That's a lot of stats to back up an awful take.

Or just fire him. I know he…

Or just fire him. I know he has a ton of shit takes (see his stuff pop up all the time given my location/fandom of Indy sports), but it seems like most of the time he's just trolling for clicks. I know I know, all online journalists do that to an extent, but it's just gotten to an absurd level.

NIL money doesn't come…

NIL money doesn't come directly from the school, so not sure you have a point about "Michigan makes top 5 money but refuses to share it." However, the school/AD/program needs to do a better job of facilitating and getting the deals lined up for the players sooner to give May a better chance of landing kids like this.

This is a bad post and you…

This is a bad post and you should feel bad.

And JH. Remember when they…

And JH. Remember when they wanted him to sign a lifetime contract?

And he's gotten into it a…

And he's gotten into it a few times with opposing teams' fans. The thinnest skin.

Although JH should know if…

Although JH should know if he's in SD or LA...

Isn't that from May's introductory press conference?

LSU's starting point guard…

LSU's starting point guard played for Louisville the past 3 years...

You don't math, do you?

You don't math, do you?

Yeah OP screwed that one up…

Yeah OP screwed that one up. It was the move from Baltimore to Indy that happened in the middled of the night, I believe by Jim Irsay's dad. The move from Cleveland was announced halfway into the season.

Prove it.

Prove it.

Also it would be tampering…

Also it would be tampering if he tried to recruit those FAU players who aren't in the portal. We all know how much the NCAA cares about tampering...

But his cooperation would be…

But his cooperation would be pretty important.

Looks like they were all…

Looks like they were all juniors last year (just going through the box scores and looking at top scorers), so presumably they should've been able to get undergraduate degrees already.

Thank you for answering my…

Thank you for answering my question. +1 to you

OP isn't selling them, but…

OP isn't selling them, but whatever store he finds to print it is.

Right, and I assume they had…

Right, and I assume they had to pay to do so.

Wouldn't this infringe on 3…

Wouldn't this infringe on 3 different trademarks? IP is not my area.

Natural Ice.

Natural Ice.

Genuinely curious why that…

Genuinely curious why that matters? I've seen people have surgery to repair a torn meniscus and be back a few weeks later. ACL, not so much.

Is it just when both are torn it just takes that much longer to rehab?

Now you're just trolling.

Now you're just trolling.

Didn't get "crazy" seems…

Didn't get "crazy" seems like he was still contacted by other teams but he was able to shut it down quickly. Not that the NCAA would actually do anything about tampering though.

What did it say then?

What did it say then?

It said "Fab 5 Failure," how is that different?

The only thing the headline…

The only thing the headline said was the he failed (in his duties as coach). Are you disputing that after they won only 8 games all year? Yeah admissions and all that, but 8 wins is a failure.

Moore is a head coach …

Moore is a head coach (albeit at FCS level), so why would he want to be a position coach?

If Moore does well there for a few years, he'll certainly move up the ranks to a MAC level HC job.

You missed the /s after…

You missed the /s after Larry Johnson...

They should cut the amount…

They should cut the amount of TOs per team in half. Each stoppage/review is like a free timeout, so that would even things out a bit.

I agree. But what's one more…

I agree. But what's one more stoppage to make a correct call? If there's going to be 5-6 review, 7-8 isn't much of a difference. 

Came here to say this…

Came here to say this. Unless the OT is just pancaking guys left and right, hearing their name from the announcers usually means the OT is getting beat off the edge.

Even my 8 year old commented…

Even my 8 year old commented to me that he was pronouncing it wrong.

Especially snapping in…

Especially snapping in spring practice with limited contact, probably wearing shorts most days, etc.

Shameful? Disrespectful? No…

Shameful? Disrespectful? No.

Correct? Absolutely!

It's just an entirely…

It's just an entirely different game than it was back in the 80s and 90s when the mid range and post up were the emphasis.

Or just don't click on it…

Or just don't click on it. The OP clearly indicated "CC" in the title so you know what you're getting into.

Re Hurley: UM just fired a…

Re Hurley: UM just fired a coach who was involved in multiple altercations. We don't need one who regularly gets into it with fans.

It was like the second or…

It was like the second or third physical altercation he'd been involved in. They could've let him go right then.

That's a "walking taco," nothing about it resembles a pie.

That sounds like "baked spaghetti" (what my family always called it), not a pie.

Hopefully that's the "coach…

Hopefully that's the "coach speak" and him not wanting to publicly shit on the players. But you never know with Manuel.

Northwestern is 3rd in the…

Northwestern is 3rd in the B1G this year. If only we could reach the "ceiling" and be as good as NW. By recruiting rankings, I would bet Michigan had a more "talented" roster than NW this year, they just waaaaay underperformed and there's no one else to blame it on but JH.

Cruz can fuck off to Mexico again and hopefully never return.

Not sure why you're getting…

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. Seems like you pretty much nailed the situation.

Isn't this already in place?…

Isn't this already in place? I mean, the students have to keep a certain GPA to be eligible. Now, you're not going to be able to force someone paying NIL to a player to include academic requirements, but if the player is not eligible to play, the NIL deals will dry up.
