Michigan State Spartans (official thread)

Depends on how much of a leash he's on.

If they want a win-now thing or to be anything more than .500 in year 3, they're incredibly unrealistic.

If they are willing to give him enough time to build from within and give it 5 or 6 seasons, I think he could get it to the same plateau as Dantonio did.

Cignetti just won a NC at a hole in the Earth like IU in what, 2 years?

I think the days of the B1G West-like gentlemen's club are over.

How can you sit there as a mid type of B1G team and watch IU win a NC and NOT think you should be able to find a coach, hit the portal and at least make a playoff run?

Cig is making life rough for Fleck, Fitz, COY and their lot.

NBA announces punishments for LA Clippers after Kawhi probe​

The NBA on Wednesday announced severe punishments for the LA Clippers -- including the loss of five future first-round draft picks, a fine of $30 million and a yearlong suspension of owner Steve Ballmer -- for violating salary cap circumvention rules in a case involving star Kawhi Leonard.

In a statement, the NBA said a near-yearlong investigation "found a pattern of misconduct and multiple significant rules violations by the Clippers organization, a prior offender of the salary cap circumvention rules."

As a result, the Clippers must forfeit first-round draft picks in 2029, 2030, 2031, 2032 and 2033. In addition to the $30 million fine, Ballmer is suspended from all league and team activities for one year "for "knowingly seeking to help Mr. Leonard obtain off-court income opportunities," among other issues. President of business operations Gillian Zucker is suspended without pay for one year. And president of basketball operations Lawrence Frank is suspended without pay for six months.

BP Fantasy Baseball est. 2008 (Current Champion = heisman)

You guys want a laugh....look at what my slappys are doing this week now that it matters fuck all.

There have been stretches where they didn't hit 12 HR or 30 RBI combined over multiple weeks.

Rafael Devers has decided to get off his fat, sloth-like worthless ass and pad his stats now that his real team and my fantasy team season's are fucked.

Lane Kiffin (HC LSU)

Agent of chaos: Lane Kiffin fed Dabo Swinney intel, egged him on to publicly attack Ole Miss over tampering​

An excerpt from upcoming book "Lane Being Lane: The Story of Lane Kiffin, College Football's Agent of Chaos"​

Adapted from Lane Being Lane: The Story of Lane Kiffin, College Football's Agent of Chaos by John Talty to be published by Harper, Sept. 15, 2026. The first book on the most polarizing coach in college sports, Louisiana State University football coach Lane Kiffin, charts his inexorable rise and his impact on the game, as he left a trail of winning teams, bad feelings, and controversy in his wake.

Lane Kiffin came off like a man who badly wanted revenge on Ole Miss, but everywhere he turned he was rebuffed. Eventually, he found a target: Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney.

Swinney had just lost talented Cal transfer linebacker Luke Ferrelli to Ole Miss despite his signing with the Tigers and even going to classes on Clemson's campus. Ferrelli, the ACC Defensive Rookie of the Year, took a visit to Ole Miss before signing with Clemson, but the Rebels didn't have a spot available for him.

"This is a whole other level of tampering," Swinney said in January. "It's total hypocrisy…We have a broken system, and if there are no consequences for tampering, then we have no rules and we have no governance."

Kiffin even passed along information, according to multiple sources, to help Swinney in his crusade against Golding and Ole Miss. Clemson offensive line coach Matt Luke, the former Ole Miss head coach, called his alma mater to give it a heads-up on what Kiffin had helped convince Swinney to do.

Ole Miss officials were furious, not only because they now had to deal with another national controversy once Swinney went public with the allegations, but over Kiffin's hypocrisy.

"Dabo's one of the main guys when [Lane] was at Ole Miss he would always say that guy's a fraud and I don't like that," says a high-ranking Ole Miss official. "And of course, he's feeding him all this stuff."

Says another Ole Miss source, "He can't handle Ole Miss being successful. Pete (Golding) said, 'They better be careful I know where every body is buried.'"
