Should semipro/college players be paid, or allowed to sell their stuff? (NIL and Revenue Sharing)

They have no idea how to fix the actual problems of the country, but their old ass conservative brains can’t process high school kids making money playing sports and it must be stopped. Hunger and poverty is a little over their heads.
It’s all by design

2026 Winter Olympics (Milan - Cortina, Feb 6-20)

The 2026 Winter Olympics kick off this Friday (Feb 6) in Milan-Cortina Italy. A record 12 current and former Buckeyes are on various women's ice hockey teams.

How about them Miami (O) basketball team?

Rumor has it that the Miami BOT is deciding this month on go/no go on a new arena. Millett turns 60 in two years and has long been due for a makeover.

Over 10k (new attendance record) were at last Saturday’s game against No Illinois and at least 10k are expected for the game against Ohio on 2/13.

BTW: Miami women are also undefeated in the MAC so far this season and set a single game attendance record last Saturday.


Will be interesting if they pull the trigger.


Miami's "new" hockey arena is 10+ years old but still shines based on it's excellent upkeep.
I was up there 4 weeks ago for a swim meet with my kids and the Ice center was packed as they were having "open skate" on an auxiliary rink and a youth hockey tournament in the main rink.

Ice arena's have the ability to offset cost by opening up to the public. More difficult for basketball arenas unless it's also acting as a concert space.

2025-2026 Ohio State Men's Basketball

Win @Maryland or it's over. Could possibly pull the upset vs scum if we get the Home refs cooking like they did but there's no room for error.

Yep. If they lose to Maryland they probably have to beat 2 of the more upper level teams left on the schedule (scUM, Virginia, Sparty and Purdue) to make up for it, and that likely is not happening with this squad

OC Arthur Smith (Official Thread)

Will Howard was actually very solid. Krenzel was a serviceable game manager.
Will earned and deserves his legendary status, but winning rewrote his story. As did a system that let him fail twice (once with a big injury), before he was granted a third chance as a play-in game before the quarterfinals.

Stroud or Fields would have loved that redemption offer. Barrett would be debatable how it would go, because if he was not hit in the head 795 times by switching to a Ryan Day offense, it would be intriguing if he could match Will Howard's playoff run with that talent around him.

Advice on books to read

Or, you could just rewatch "Rise of the Machines". Certainly can believe that super intelligent AI constructs would view humans as flawed. Hopefully there's an alternative path where the constructs 'help' the humans become better, rather than be totally irradicated. Do want to purchase the CIA book, might start seeing spooks everywhere. Thanks for the reading tips. Am currently immersed in 'swords & sorcery', and future history of earthlings entering the cosmic stars....

Ohio State Men's Tennis (2014/2019/2024 ITA Indoor National Champs, 19 Straight B1G Titles)

Dumb question. Is it 'mandatory' that each team puts their #1 v #1 etc down the line? Or would a coach put their #6 singles against visitor #1, and then have their #1 go against opponent's #2 etc? In essence, sacrificing a L, versus maybe gaining an edge against the rest of opponent's line-up? Would think it's the 'gentlemanly' to do, but strategically makes sense. Probably not worth the time to respond, but hey!
