  1. I know what chili crisp is but it serves basically the same purpose as that garlic-chili sauce. Was just mentioning an alternative.
  2. I think it's one that's IN Vietnam. I just Googled Vietnam statue and picked the image that I thought would best get the joke across. We have of course completely killed the joke at this point but cest la vie.
  3. Yeah I think Mark is gone. Which is why I led with Pryor and Weaver. I think those are the 2 that Miller both should keep and could keep.
  4. That's a little unfair to Turner. He's had some very nice stretches since he became the guy. I agree that we can do better. I think there might be something with this MLS kid. Patrick something? Wtf happened to Gaga?
  5. If he wants to stick around and ride the bench then whatever. If he's our 2nd string 5 in '26 then the Miller era is off to a rocky start. I'd love to keep Mark. He seriously showed his quality the few weeks of the season.
  6. On a more serious note - I think Pryor and Weaver can for sure be retained. I'm not sure what eligibility looks like for a lot of these guys like Kaluma, Shedrick and Mark (who I'd all take back). I wish Onyema the best. I hope like hell Miller doesn't keep Pope around. Larry and Kent need to move on.
  7. I think Tre Johnson is probably gone.
  8. It's very much Vietnam. Maybe look closer at what the soldiers are packing.
  9. Sierra Nevada Cosmic Little Thing IPA. Really damn good. Dangerously smooth for 8% - and that might be my main critique - a little syrupy on the back-end. I'm more of a hazy guy - less of a double IPA fan. This is a nice little middle ground. It's kind of like a good version of a lot of the high ABV Voodoo Ranger shlock.
  10. He was sheltered there in an attempt to avoid the Opium wars going on with the British Empire.
  11. If it comes to pass we'll have to get Helo some Sooner gear.
  12. If she commits to anyone but Vic she's making a mistake.
  13. There's a lot of videos out there of Euro length and couches.
  14. "Half the story" is being generous to Tom. Sark has done a much better job building and maintaining an elite staff, recruiting the right players (not just trying to pile up star ratings) and developing players and coaching to a standard. It's not like Tom didn't have access to talent. He missed on a lot of guys and didn't develop worth a shit.
  15. Sounds like she isn't going away without some legal fees.
  16. I don't understand what you're arguing. I already said huge splash hires don't happen very often in college basketball. That doesn't mean CDC or any other AD is incapable of pulling it off. Like I listed out they happen all the fucking time in cfb.
  17. The point is that big names get lured away all the time in cfb. Obviously there is minutae with every hire - just like there was when Texas landed Beard. It's easier to maintain year-over-year results in cbb which is why guys like Izzo, Self, Coach K wind up sticking around for 30 years. There are also a LOT more schools where you can consistently contend nationally if you know what you're doing.
  18. Um. Lincoln to SC, Kelly to LSU, DeBoer to Bama... It definitely doesn't happen a lot in MBB. It happens all the time in cfb.
  19. Donovan took them to the title game in 2000 but then went 5 straight seasons without a SS. Then they won b2b titles. The Donovan wishcasting was that if he DID want to return to college Texas would be a good opening and it would have been easy for him to step away from the Bulls. Obviously if he's just fine in the NBA then it was never going to happen.
  20. They need to extend the deadline because the current date makes it to where they kind of have to open it early.
  21. No one gives a fuck about Shaka Smart's regular season record against anybody. He's a shitty coach because he's a chronic tournament choker. He's won a big East title at MU and has had them on the 2 seed line twice now. He beat Bill Self-coached Kansas twice in the same season at Texas which only like 3 guys have ever done. Good for him. I'm sorry you miss Shaka Smart Texas Basketball but Miller is much more competent and much less of an ass-clown. I'll take a guy that gets a 5 or 6 seed to the Elite Eight over a guy that can't regularly get a top 3 seed to the SS let alone out of the first round any day of the week.
