  1. They’re the two best teams in the state. I imagine it’s the high school equivalent of the Saban discount.
  2. Thank God. The whole “we have no shot if Oregon pursues” bit sucked. Flipping a kid from Nike U is just about the best thing that could happen for this board.
  3. He’s the star obviously, but not everyone plays well off of Barkley. He’s on NBATV during the finals with a different crew and it’s not nearly as good.
  4. I’m not really complaining about it, but was there really that much of a demand for 20 more football scholarships? If there was, I completely missed it.
  5. If TNT is actually interested in keeping the rights, then this will go to court. But they may have just been posturing the whole time.
  6. Second straight game Lebron had to just take over. It’s crazy that he is clearly the best player on this team at damn near 40 years old.
  7. Kerr is too interested in not hurting anyone’s feelings. That’s why his rotations have been mostly just subbing all 5 guys out at once. Everyone has to get their minutes, regardless of the flow of the game.
  8. Royal Ivey outcoached Steve Kerr by a lot.
  9. We also treated him like a backup plan for most of the cycle. The decision makes sense. Still two whales on the board though. We all like Gerry, but the “hi” thing is objectively stupid.
  10. They are still the favorite to land Johnson. Sark picking up communication with him after losing Moore, screams “back-up plan” way too obviously. Wouldn’t be surprised if Johnson isn’t super receptive to that.
  11. So on Moore, did we match the $$$ or not? Because I’ve seen some people in the know say we did, and other people in the know imply we didn’t.
  12. I know what you meant. I need you to think about this for like 3 seconds. Or at least word things better
  13. Rashaad has been at Oregon for 3 months not 3 years.
  14. His dad is Reginald Samples, literally Dakorien Moore’s HS coach. And the most respected coach in the area.
  15. Yeah, that’s why I said “move on”, if he were signing today, that wouldn’t need to be said, there wouldn’t be a choice.
  16. I think I’m more aggravated at the time/ resource management by the staff more than anything. Sark spends a disproportionate amount of his recruiting time on WRs (probably to the detriment of other positions) and then missed on his top WR target anyways. And not once, but twice. It’s time to move the fuck on, take that money you had earmarked for him and put it towards DTs or something.
  17. He is either going to turn the mood around on this thread, or send it straight to hell.
  18. Yeah, Lebron is absolutely still a max level player. His son is overpaid, but he isn’t. Its funny, the Lakers are an incredibly poorly run organization and the owners have been let off the hook because Lebron takes all the arrows. Lakers ownership stunk before Lebron got there, the reason they had to cede so much power to him in the first place is because they’ve been such a tire fire since Jerry Buss died.
  19. Sweat was already up to 320 by the time his freshman season started. He was listed as an SDE in high school, but he was recruited with the intent of being a DT from the beginning. As others have stated Henry Melton also made the rare transition from RB to DT. He was a RB on the national championship team, I still remember him bulldozing Louisiana-Lafayette players in the season opener.
  20. The new CBA introduced a second tax apron that is so punitive that it scared off Steve Ballmer, the richest owner in the league by far, from re-signing Paul George. The era of the super team is effectively over. Unfortunately, teams that draft well are going to be punished by this too. If you happen to draft 3 or more max-type players, your window to win with them is now shorter, you’re going to have to dump somebody before those contracts all inflate and cause you to reach that second tax apron.
  21. If our current DT strategy is the same strategy we had under Bo, then it likely wasn’t all his fault. If you aren’t going to commit a bunch of NIL money to DT then you definitely should be recruiting backup plans better. Our strategy at the position makes no sense. One of the backup guys we didn’t really bother to recruit much, Chace Simms, just committed to aggy.
  22. I wasn’t doubting his ability, just that he seems like a long shot at the moment, long thought to be a silent commit to ND.
