going to add that one to the list.

Used to go through Bakersfield on way to LA to watch daughter swim at BIOLA. There has been huge improvement on 99 going through that town, but still hold my breath, as most of those drivers act like they're playing 'dodge-em'. And, turn signals stay off, as drivers don't want to give away what they're going to cut you off.....

For me it's all about the food, never been one to worry about the quality of my china. I did buy some nice bowls from the Asian market for my pho and wonton soups though. I might buy some better bowls too for my posole and menudo

Guy looks like he's in his 30's. Kinda like an Oden in cleats. Not as tuned in as thought I was, as feel he came in from left field. Guess he liked the depth ahead of him, and the NIL was sufficient. Hope he is all that and a bag of chips....

Heck, Dabo gets mad about a red stoplight in his way. Was kinda hoping Day would tab Tress to be special teams coach. He's looking for a job, even though he turned down running for governor...

Well golly. With the depth of knowledge and understanding in BP, one would wonder why Day & Co didn't run this hire by us before he pulled the trigger. "in the know" could mean many things. Am not an NFL follower, and tend to watch the players more than the coordinators. Am certain that Day asked his trusted sources about him, and came away satisfied. So, much like Patricia, Buckeye Nation is taking a 'wait and see' stance on this guy. Hopefully (!), he pans out like Patricia did. PS, we'll see how well the D looks, filling the holes left by players moving on. Second and third years are the truth years. Point being, Day felt secure enough with the hire to trust his $10+million salary to this hire, so who are we to judge?

No way to Harden! Dude demands trades more frequently than Haslam changes coaches. And you know he will want some massive contract extension since he is at the end of his useful career.

Dubs, come revisit the San Joaquin valley. Hardly any stop light goes without the car next to me, blaring their music at waaaay too many decibels. PS, had a roommate in college that came from a Polish/Italian union. His dad played a squeeze box, and grew to 'dislike' polka music very much. Hear alot of that on the streets as well. The sounds of Vanilla Fudge might be very welcome....

I haven't spent a significant amount of time there since the 80's, just passing through on I-5 or the 99. It used to be a beautiful place. Last time I drove through there on the 101 it looked like a desert.

BTW, you might get a kick out of this.

And just to set the record straight, remember Woody's triumvirate of fullbacks, Cheney, Katterheindrich (sp!), and a third guy I forget. Bob Ferguson, (gimme the ball), and Johnson, the guy who blocked for Archie. Memory is dull, but not gone (yet).

Guess we all concur that, should he don the scarlet & gray, DGG has some rather large shoes to fill. Well, hopefully he gets that chance. Go Bucks!

I hop-a, hop-a, hope....

But I agree that a number of kids would’ve been better off staying at their first school.

the cat is already out of the bag, but I really wish the portal would have developed into what it should have been.

Hot Shot high school kid gives it a shot at a top tier school, but isn't quite good enough, drop down to a G5 or FCS school. No shame in being good enough to play there but not at an elite football school.

High School kid flying under the radar, maybe a late bloomer type goes to small school first and is ready to make the jump? Absolutely, give the kid a shot.

but this jumping around with a bunch of "lateral" moves?
nah fuck that.

Agree Bestbuck.....howsoever, he's going to need someone to get him the ball. Don't know too many PGs that both bring down the ball, and then score it. The point of defense is to deny the open shot, or an easy feed to a big. (or so I was taught). Don't really see the logical successor to Thornton, except for Mobley! Maybe there's someone on the bench, but Diebler is successfully hiding them, and they're certainly not getting many minutes, to hone those PG skills. Smell a portal person coming. With Tilly a one-and-don xfer, Noel iffy, and the big guy from Baylor questionable, Bynum cannot be the long rebounder. Anyway, going to be a fascinating off-season.

Fare thee well Coach...

Harden coming?

I don’t love it but if it gets Garland’s contract offf the books and you can stagger Harden with Mitchell at PG I think it makes some sense.

I’d prefer Harden reverts back to his 6th man of the year role bc I don’t think pairing him with Mitchell for long stretches would work with Donovan very well.

Will be interesting to see if Strus would have to be included…..I think a healthy Max gets this team to another level but I don’t know how realistic that is at this point in season….

Wait, since we kinda own Venezuela now, doesn't that mean Acuna can play for the US?

I don't hate it so far. Watching them actually play might make me hate it soon

Sam Merrill made this happen. Hunter is obsolete with defensive lapses now that Sam is the dagger

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.

Kent and Akron are both good teams and could get one if those "Cinderella" wins given the opportunity and Miami could too. I like the story

The commentators were spot on with the summation of this one:

"We have Jaloni, and you don't!"

Phenomenal game by the sisters and the rest of the starters are really playing well. That blip in Iowa happens in this conference but if they keep playing defense and get Kitts back they can end up in the Final Four.
