Admittedly I have no idea how this recruiting stuff works or what goes through the mind of 18 year olds, but I don’t know why you’d ask for a release without first having talked to someone. In my mind if you’ve asked for release, it’s for more than just the “unknown.”

Holy $:&@! That’s great... really great! I love it. I’m psyched that grandma would be most proud of him being a college coach... I hope that’s where he is committed for good. My only beef ;).... “Medium well, ma’am.” I think Lute steered him wrong here and I hope he has learned not to ask...

Indiana is elitist scum so I have no doubt they would take a position like this and I remember the game being at Tech despite them being the higher seed. I would love more backstory if you have it. (y)

Two of the best things I read; 1. Acknowledging NBA and college are very different. “Duh,” but I hope that isn’t lip service. There is not a lot of crossover coaching success to point to. I know he left college game for his NBA shot, but I hope his coaching “fire” is rooted in the college game...

All of what you say is true. But the program he “turned around” he left almost immediately. Not knocking anything he did, just saying he had one good year and then was gone. Sounds similar to the knocks on AAR and a couple others. Bottom line; I hope he’s a coach. If he is a coach and we can...

I agree with this, but these dominoes fell into place entirely too quickly and easily, did they not? I like the hire and if it all goes down as advertised, I have to believe it’s been going a little longer than the weekend.

Nope; they don’t remember him as a player and I don’t think that matters. They have to like him as a coach. The fact that he has been where they want to go is credibility but I don’t think immediate name recognition is selling any teenagers. They’ll be told who he is. For what it’s worth, I’d...

They do! I’ve watched games where they didn’t even show the play under review. Just a commercial break and then return to live action with the announcer saying, “while we were away...”

Too soon.

Funny, I feel like that was exactly what was said and more than one person laid it out. Argued in one direction it drew almost universal ire, argued another way, most nodded in agreement and moved on. Interesting, but probably not the place to explore further. I don’t think Pastner had any...

I’ll start. Basketball is still a shooters game. All of the athleticism and scheme and analysis in the world won’t make up for bad shooting and it’s equally hard to overcome good shooting in the other side. We didn’t turn the ball over a lot. When we did, we didn’t commit a lot of live ball...

You’re not misremembering... this time. :) I also remember weird cuts (cutting commercials short or joining the game in progress). Ahh the good ol days! :ROFLMAO: I agree we’ll never put those worms back in the can...

I mostly agree with all you’ve said. Proposed changes, good or bad, aren’t changing game length (program length) much. They’re reducing football plays though. One of the reasons cited for these proposal was safety. Fewer plays = fewer injuries. If they’re being honest about the desire for...

I agree mostly. Untimed down and consecutive TO rules are good, even if they don’t do much to reduce game length. I would just like to see them shorten games without reducing plays. I think all booth review should be eliminated. Give each team two challenges per half, one is free the other...

The top blurb of the article is wrong. If you read further down it says the clock would stop at the last 2 minutes of “a half,” which I believe means “both halves” and that makes some sense. There’s a fourth change lurking out there, though. They are also talking about a running clock on...

Ok... that makes more sense. :giggle: Still stinks that all of these rules mean less actual football.....🤷‍♂️

But the intent is still that they will stop a legal play when clock ticks 0:00, right? That scenario doesn’t play out in any other situation... and it will save no time whatsoever in a game ETA: my point in the penalty was that the only scenario where this rule would save real time (more than...

The running clock is the only thing that will significantly shorten the game. @iceeater1969 is right...It also means less football. They’ll fill the time with ads and public interest stories I’m sure. Dumb. The consecutive time out rule is the only good one. It only happens once a game if the...

That assumes that some criteria was actually used. :D

Ouch. That ain’t gonna cut it
