    Chances we start on time?

    Per Accuweather, it looks like the game will start on time, but the potential bad weather could hit as early as 8:00 (49%) but shoots up to 69% starting around 9:00 p.m.

    Would they move the game up to try and get it finished before the weather is expected to hit?

    I don't think so, Sparky...

    NiJaree Canady signs another 7-figure deal with Texas Tech

    Texas Tech superstar pitcher NiJaree Canady was the first $1 million softball player. She's also the second.

    Canady has signed another seven-figure NIL contract with the Matador Club, the Red Raiders collective, her manager Derrick Shelby of Prestige Management told ESPN.

     

  3. Well Horns, it was fun rooting against Ou together. Good times. 
     

    But that is now in the past. And I’m going to play dirty. I’m going to kick yall below the belt. 
     

    May Ted Cruz show up in person for the games in OKC wearing his burnt orange.

  4. Pretty spot on quote from a poster at Red Raider Sports:

     

    For those struggling for context. 

    This is Texas Tech football in their first year under a new HC going up against Nick Saban's Alabama in the CFB playoffs and leading 21-0 going into the locker-room at halftime.

    Yikes I have not watched the draft, but hoo boy this Sanders deal is going to be interesting when he’s finally taken. The Raiders seem like the kind of team he should be on, but wouldn’t shock me if Dallas took him.

    When or if?

    And after losing every game for every sport they field for the rest of Earth’s life, I want God to recreate the Earth and recreate the university of Mississippi just so we can all come back and slap NCAA sanctions on their new sports so they can never win again. 

    That’s beautiful, man. Pure poetry.

    I'd feel the same about McCasland as I do Miller.... McCasland >> RT, decent hire but  I hoped for better. Don't get me wrong, the lulz factor from  stealing another Tech hoops coach would have been fantastic, but his tourney achievements to date are OK, not great.

    2021 (13 seed) - Won vs 4 seed, Lost vs 5 seed 
    2024 (6 seed) - Lost vs 11 seed
    2025 (4 seed) - Won vs 14 seed, Won vs 11 seed, Won vs 10 seed

    A trip to the elite 8 is nice, but its not like Miller doesnt have a few of those, including taking Xavier there in his 4th year. 

    2021 - North Texas...as you state, that 13 seed beat the 4 seed.  But that 13 seed was North Texas, whose only modicum of success prior to this was years ago under Johnny Jones, and they never had any postseason tournament wins with him.

    You left out 2023 - Won the NIT Championship at North Texas.  North Texas.  This is an underrated accomplishment because UNT just doesn't support the basketball program at all.

    2024 - That 11 seed he lost to went to the Final Four

    2025 - Elite Eight (so far) with basically a 6-7 man rotation

  8. You would think an athletic department's Director of Communications would be savvy enough to realize that threatening a reporter to take a post down like that just made it 100x worse.  Now the original clip will perpetuate in the news cycle longer, and get more clicks, than if he had just let it go.

    That's like Intro to PR 101 stuff.
