I don’t think anyone really understood or could have predicted how big of a shift the single portal window would have on retention.

Dana Brown on a possible Hunter Brown extension: “We had some discussions with Hunter Brown about two years ago and we expect that to heat up again. Look, he’s got Boras, so it won’t be easy. But at the end of the day, we will definitely talk to Hunter Brown about an extension at some point.”
"We have to establish that I'm playing for the University of Texas. I play for Sean Miller. He's the coach. What he says goes." Sean Miller emphatically calls out Texas' effort following the loss at Tennessee
"Hi Alvarez & Marsal, I'd like you to prepare a full valuation report on the territory of Greenland for a pending offer to purchase. Please discount for lack of marketability and weather."
For thirty years, my gumbo would be made with a dark chocolate roux. Now, when making a gumbo roux, I pull out 1/3 of the roux just past milk chocolate, which I then put back in the pot with the dark chocolate roux when I add the vegetables.
