    Pastner Contract

    Yup, and he clarified that the $1.255 million from Memphis is on top of that.

    Mike Bobinski and The Search of Doom

    Realized midway through that it's an AJC website. Glad AJC dropped the pretense and renamed to dawgnation.

    Pastner Contract

    If it's about $9 million over 6 years, that's about $1.5 million a year. It means buyout affordable in 4 years when a decision can be made...

    Pastner Contract

    If Pastner is getting the same guaranteed pay ($10.6 million), then he moved to get out of an uncomfortable situation helping both UM and GT instead of waiting a year or two to get a lump sum of free money. I already like the guy for that. I wish Hewitt did the same taking the St. Johns offer...

    Press Conference at 3:30pm ET

    It's probably about 90% same as any other coach introduction. It's just stuff new coaches say...

    Pastner Contract

    He had a guaranteed contract for $10.6 million over next 4 years. He wouldn't agree to anything less than that. So we must have given him at least $10.6 - $1.255 = $8.745 million guaranteed over 4 or more years...

    Pastner Contract

    This is the only official info out so far: "The University of Memphis will pay Josh Pastner $1.255 million over two years as a contract settlement, president M. David Rudd told The Commercial Appeal this afternoon."...

    The Search

    Jay Wright has been there 15 seasons. It would be like Larranaga leaving George Mason (14 seasons there) for Miami. The problem is that Wright makes about $3 million, so we would have to pay at least that much, maybe a lot more. Miami did an incredible job getting Larranaga for about $1...

    ProJackets Update

    He is obviously doing great right now; but, unfortunately he got snubbed by not even getting a NFL combine invite if I remember correctly. Probably lost money out of that, but won by joining a good organization...

    ProJackets Update

    Do practice squad guys get superbowl rings? ;) It would be so amazing for Shaq to get a ring as a rookie after having played so much too!

    2015 Warmest Year on Record

    It's thought to be caused mostly by the El Nino, so I don't think it's completely the global warming signal. Unfortunately for this discussion, we will literally have to wait couple decades to really see what's going on. First of all for more data to be available, but also as important for...

    ESPN: Bold Predictions for ACC in 2016

    Tied for 43rd highest chances overall and 6th highest in the ACC. Not too bad actually if you take this as an 'expected value', as in we have about 50% chance to do better than that and be a top 40 team which would be a HUGE improvement. Glass half full :)

    ProJackets Update

    awesome news! From earlier last year about how he overcame a tough upbringing: http://bills.buffalonews.com/2015/08/22/bills-butler-finds-faith-in-forgiveness/ And about how he lost a friend just before his first NFL start last month...

    ISIS article

    That was a good article, but I read it awhile back when it first came out. Probably need to read it again, and IIRC there was a rebuttal and/or different perspective as well. Here is a more historical read that brings in the Saudis and their Wahhabism: http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/5717157

    Will we ever be sure that it wasn't Lawrence?

    Benghazi Hearings

    Agreed, mostly a waste of time. She is a master debater, lying, avoiding questions, giving good answers, etc. I am saying all that as a liberal who does not want another corrupt Clinton to become president. Not that I like any of the other democrats either. My guess is that the main effect of...

    Who's going to South Bend?

    White Field and Burke Golf Course look pretty large and they are both "drive-up parking, no pass required", see link here with the map: http://gameday.nd.edu/campus/parking/
