  1. Thanks. As of now that is our plan. She has some other great options, but UT is most likely where her twin ends up. She was 5/5 on acceptances, so she’s just emotional at the moment.
  2. Sounds right. My daughter just called me crying as she got capped. Missed top 6% at Anderson by three spots and 1430 SAT.
  3. I offered to back you in a match against @longhorn10 at Lakewood.
  4. What everyone said. Wife and I have been to Ireland two of the last three summers and drove. You get used to it quickly. Roundabouts are awesome, but I do recommend checking out the youtube videos. Common sense, but it helped to see it.
  5. On a related note, I did play basketball in a couple of the gyms used in the movie. Some of those gyms were still used by junior highs when I was there in the 80s. Also watched some of the filming when I was a senior in high school.
  6. Grew up in Sheridan, Indiana, population around 2,000. About 45 minutes to Indianapolis, but might as well be a different country. Got out as soon as I could, and no way I could live there again. Been in Austin since 1991. I'm sure there are other small towns I could live in that would be awesome, but not that one.
  7. Yeah, I finally got fitted for wedges and went with 50/54/58. 60 seemed like overkill for me. Just open the 58. If I played in places with thicker rough, maybe that would change.
  8. While technically true, if you aren’t playing stroke and distance on OB or lost balls, you are giving yourself a lower handicap than what you should, so I wouldn’t view that as cheating in a tourney. It’s a vanity handicap, the exact opposite of sandbagging. Also, when I’m playing with friends and I have a lost ball or an OB that I didn’t hit a provisional for (due to a miscalculation of where the ball went), I’m certainly not headed back to the tee to re-tee (unless big money involved and my ball may count).
  9. No, it is diagonal from there. My office is straight across at 300 West 6th. We are about to be surrounded.
  10. Player I thought the top 6% was set by grades at end of junior year. I didn’t think they went back and looked at it again. Am I wrong? I ask because my daughter missed it by 3 spots based on grades at end of junior year, and I thought that was it for auto admit.
  11. Thanks, MIT is a long shot, but we will see.
  12. My son just got admitted into Cockrell. He is pumped. He hears from MIT tomorrow, and is admitted into Michigan State and Colorado School of Mines so far. His twin sister is waiting to hear from the College of Liberal Arts at UT, and is admitted to Hendrix, Trinity and Willamette so far.
  13. The funny thing is if they had blocked at all the flea flicker would have worked. In the replay you could see the entire secondary sprinting up even as Booger said no one ran up. Idiot.
  14. Austin Anderson going to drop to 5A. That will help in the quest for mediocrity.
  15. Austin to Amarillo is about 7-8 with minimal stops and good weather.
  16. My son and I went there for Iowa State last week. Shitty game but lots of Texas fans.
  17. CBU record under their current coach. This is their second year in D1. Were a very solid D2 program. 2013-14 24-4 (NCAA DII Regional) 2014-15 26-7 (NCAA DII Sweet 16) 2015-16 28-7 (NCAA DII Regional) 2016-17 26-5 (NCAA DII Regional) 2017-18 28-6 (NCAA DII WR Champs/Elite 😎 2018-19 16-15 (College Basketball Invitational, Rd. 1)
  18. Did you play early afternoon on Sunday?
