  1. The vast majority of politicians on both sides are bought and paid for by AIPAC so they go crazy if anyone utters a word of criticism or protest about Israel.
  2. I'm sure the Big Ten expected Nebraska to continue being nationally relevant in football but it hasn't turned out that way. The last time Nebraska had a winning conference record was 2016.
  3. 1. Switch Florida and Georgia Tech. 2. Virgina and North Carolina have the South's oldest rivalry so they have to be in the same conference. 3. The Big Ten snobs will have a fainting spell if they're in the same conference as Louisville.
  4. UK basketball has always been over the top and he's been in it. I don't think he will win enough but the relationship with Cal was broken beyond repair and the top coaches didn't want to be part of this circus.
  5. At least Mark Pope knows what he's getting into. Billy Gillespie was overwhelmed in addition to being an abusive drunk.
  6. The one drawback to letting Cal go was UK's awful athletics director would make the hire and he has done worse then I could have imagined by hiring someone who has never won a tourney game. Top ten salary too of course for someone that hasn't won anything. The football program has been going down and now the basketball program will really start heading down.
  7. UK's athletics director is an idiot who hired two coaches (Billy Gillespie and Joker Phillips) that were complete disasters and would have gotten him fired anywhere else. He gave Calipari a lifetime contract and Arkansas bailed him out of that mistake.
  8. The last time he made it past the first weekend was 2019. His best days are long gone but thanks to Arkansas for taking him off our hands and avoiding an ugly exit.
  9. When you get bounced early year after year it isn't a fluke. He's a shitty coach and Arkansas fans will find that out soon enough.
  10. Having a completely different team every year doesn't work. Every class should have a few highly rated players and a few that will stick around and do the dirty work that's necessary to win.
  11. The good news is Cal is gone and the bad news is our athletics director is an idiot. The next coach can't be any more obnoxious and unlikeable than Cal.
  12. At the institutional level the Big Ten and SEC have a cohesion that isn't going away and is largely responsible for the success of the conference. The athletics departments of Ohio State and Alabama don't need money and they haven't and won't try to squeeze a few extra dollars from Northwestern and Vanderbilt. The fans of Iowa may hate Ohio State but the fans aren't making the decisions.
  13. Stanford's admission standards makes it difficult for them to be consistently good at football. Cal is in a similar position since their standards were increased after they had a low graduation rate for a couple of years.
  14. UCLA and North Carolina have little fan interest in football so they are mediocre with the occasional good season.
  15. The SEC leaders shouldn't bring their wives and children to the meetings because the B10 schools have plenty of rapists and child molestors.
  16. Those coaches had a combined record of 231-104 at Georgia which is a 69% winning percentage which is a good program.
  17. So Florida State lost by 60 points and think they should been in over an Alabama team that lost in overtime. As someone who has followed another ACC school Florida State's fanbase and administration has always been this stupid but they only recently started broadcasting their behavior to the entire country.
  18. FSU has a circus so I would suggest Clown Aggy.
  19. The B10 has no interest in Cal and Stanford because they are focused on football brands. Stanford had to beg for a bad deal with a conference on the other side of the country.
  20. If Florida State had a case they would have already taken action. Given their record the last two years they have no problem competing at a high level now that they have a good coach. It seems the B10 is looking to go to a national conference but they can wait and won't get near any legal action.
  21. Tennessee has been mostly mediocre for 20 years but they have a terrible fanbase. They were throwing everything onto the field at the end of a home football game against Ole Miss not too long ago. Georgia has always had a good football program but I don't think they are hated in the SEC with the exception of their rivals Florida and Auburn. I have always enjoyed my visits to Georgia games but it might be different if you're a Florida or Auburn fan.
  22. Vanderbilt's 3 football fans are really nice so don't be mean to them when you win.

    Blanda: The GOAT

    As a UK fan I want to highlight this post. There was a time when UK had George Blanda playing and Bear Bryant coaching. I was born too late and watched many terrible UK football teams play.
  24. Michigan is the only contender that didn't play a non-conference game against a P5 team so they should be out.
  25. The year before Stoops was hired UK lost by 40 points to Vanderbilt at home in an empty stadium. When you are this bad it takes time to rebuild. Stoops would be a great hire for a school like Indiana that has a dumpster fire program and wants to be consistently competitive.
