Probably the coach married to a strength coach who was busied getting plowed during their sessions rather than getting him physically prepared for the most important day of the start of his post-collegiate career.

I get the threads confused sometimes, apologies for getting worked up by a CR drive by outside the CR.
From the outside you can't understand it. From the inside you can't explain it.

SpoilerCharges dropped against all 57 arrested in connection to UT-Austin pro-Palestinian protest
All charges have been declined against the 57 people arrested in connection to the Wednesday pro-Palestinian protest at the University of Texas.
The Travis County attorney's office said all 57 arrests, which were all criminal trespassing charges, lacked probable cause.
County Attorney Delia Garza, whose office handles misdemeanor cases, told the American-Statesman on Thursday that her office agreed with defense lawyers that there were "deficiencies" with the probable cause arrest affidavits, which are the documents filled out by law enforcement to justify an arrest. At that time on Thursday, 46 of the 57 had charges declined.
While state police with the Texas Department of Public Safety and officers with the Austin Police Department were seen handcuffing people at Wednesday's protest, all 57 arrests were technically by the University of Texas Police Department. This means university police filled out each of the 57 probable cause affidavits.
Nouha Ezouhri, an attorney with the Travis County public defender's office, helped file jail release forms for those arrested at the protest. She told the Statesman on Thursday that it looked like university police "copied and pasted" each probable cause affidavit for every person arrested.
"That's not how it's supposed to be," Ezouhri said.
Everyone arrested in connection to the protest was released from the Travis County Jail on Thursday by mid-afternoon, said Travis County sheriff's office spokesperson Kristen Dark.
None of the protesters faced felony charges, the Travis County district attorney's office confirmed.
Although the charges have been dropped, it's possible that police could decide to fill out more probable cause affidavits and press charges against those arrested, George Lobb, an attorney with the Austin Lawyers Guild, told the Statesman. Police have two years to bring charges against those they arrested under Texas' statute of limitations for misdemeanors.
Stephanie Jacksis, spokesperson for the University of Texas Police Department, said she's uncertain if UT police intend to do that.
This is a developing story. Check back for more updates.

but Dago is trying to celebrate what’s great about “new” Austin and that’s not Kerbey Lane and Texadelphia.
Dago is not the preferred nomenclature. Italian-American, please.

As does the Crown & Anchor just up the street, which is also still there and still making a great cheeseburger.
Never heard of it.

What’s with all of the hypotheticals that have nothing to do with the case in front of them? Considering the urgency here, or what should be urgency I guess, why not say something like “We can address all of these hypotheticals at a later date, but for now, no, a President does not have immunity for failed coup attempts.”
Because they're going to kick it back to the lower courts to sort out which will push the trial past the election. Just honest brokers.

I like country music. Mostly the stuff before Garth Brooks showed up and ruined it, but some later stuff too. Not liking Alan Jackson and his ilk does not equate to disliking a genre.
