tOSU Recruiting Discussion

When a team loses 31 xfers, some fat/excess goes, certainly. But when one debones a chicken or beefsteak, some muscle gets cut away as well as fat. Heck, tOSU made ND's portal season all by ourselves...IMHO. Appears to me that tOSU's sophomore and junior cadre has been gutted by transfers, making the team more dependent upon the portal. And am not convinced that the coaching staff can make as great an impact on the 3-4-5 year players coming in, as they would on the 1-2-3 year recruits. While I'm not as critical of Pantoni as some of the above, kinda hard to look at someone's tape (which is made up of their GOOD plays, not their average plays) to get a feel for a kid. And is folly to read the news clippings of a guy, and make an educated decision as to make them an instant millionaire. With the huge money being thrown around for HCs, the pressure is being put upon them for instant success. And Cignetti is the poster boy certainly. Wouldn't be surprised if each and every new HC hire is being compared to him, with no earthly idea whether this new guy can 'redo' as well as Cignetti has done. And the leash on said HC will be shorter.

This could be a wild development if the bill Wins.

Banning people from making money is not only contrary to common sense, but also contrary to the primary function of the government, which is stealing the money that people make.

And, opinions are like a**holes, everyone's got one....amazing how we look back at the 'lean times', with some fondness. Wife and I looked back at our salad days, where she would make some chicken veronique, (that's chicken salad with sliced grapes, folks) go up the Santa Cruz mountains, suck down some free wine from a winery up there, have a picnic, and look out over Silicon Valley, as our main week end entertainment. Today, we spend a whole lot more, and cannot really say the times are better.

I was on a philosophy teaching fellowship from '91-'93, then bailed and went to law school. Taught ethics and logic, which is ironic as I'm frequently unethical and illogical. Was my first job and I think it paid $18K a year plus my grad tuition and student football tix. Lived in what could best be described as a housing project behind the McDonald's at 16th when you could get burgers for $.25 on Monday nights. and you could get a burrito a few doors down that was like three meals worth. Best fcuking time.

Those were good days, remember them well. I had an intro philosophy class thought by some really old but great guy. IIRC he was somewhere in Bertrand Russell’s lineage. Closer to Russell than further… he was old.

Also had an ethics class at tOSU. The guy was too old to be a grad student and had a bit of an accent. African maybe? Either way, one day we were discussing the ethics of dating and this guy used to call on people randomly to keep the class on its toes. I forgot the prompt a long time ago but once, when called upon in that discussion, I made reference to ‘coyote ugly.’ Probably related to ‘do you call her back’ type of question. The prof either was not familiar with the term or felt like putting me on the spot, so I had to explain to the class that sometimes you wake up next to someone and rather than waking them you’d rather gnaw your arm off… like a coyote in a trap. Ahh… good times.

For as much set theory as I deal with in data science, I always wished that I had taken a formal logic class. I always loved the topic, but alas… there were math and stats classes to take!

Will Whittingham clean up the Michigan football program?

Or will the Michigan football program corrupt Whittingham?

Compared to the culture in the state of Utah, he's basically living in Gomorrah now. And to think Michigan is actually trying to clean up their act instead of just hiring a coach with a clean rep as a PR move is foolish. Look what Moore and Harbaugh were allowed to get away with. The AD is the same and they still don't have a president, do they?

Cleveland Cavs (2016 NBA Champions)

So, is Harden here just to finish out the season? Use his talents before the honeymoon period ends, hope he helps them to a championship, and then hope for some cap relief since Harden's contract is only partially guaranteed next season?

Let's hope Kobi knows what he is doing. And this gif is my fear for Harden.
