'25 OH SG Dorian Jones (Ohio St. decommitt)

Seem to recollect that back in the day, D1 schools would stash players at a community college with ties to their university to get their academic ship in order. But that cost the recruit a year of eligibility, so they morphed to the prep school route in order to preserve that eligibility. Lost track of what's going on there, as big time schools not interested in wasting a schollie on someone who cannot cut it in the classroom. But there's always a university that without the academic requirements of, say a B10 school, that will grab that talent and put him in remedial classes (or somesuch bunny curriculum (curricului?). But yeah, he's gone.

I don't believe there are "many" users trying to be Miami and play a home game for one thing and second, you can tell the game is unrealistic as hell because it's 0-0 late in the first against an opponent with a pulse.

We all know that isn't how the real world works.

I won't comment on your first point.
As for your second point, I haven't played since, maybe 2008, but I have 2 points. First, I always played on 5-minute quarters. Sometimes, against the AI, I'd still score 80+ points. Sometimes even 100+. So 15-minute quarters would be crazy. So it may not be "late in the first" - it may just be "midway through the first". Second, At the beginning of each season, I'd take control of a second team and cut every player on the team, forcing them to fill the roster with walk-ons. Maybe that's what this nerd did. So it may not actually be an "opponent with a pulse".

Hopefully tOSU heads back to a 3 LB set on first two downs, as looks like there's a bunch of LB cordwood being stacked up. According to what read in Lindy's, tOSU is going to lose serveral backers over next two years. Guess might be determined whether the team the Buckeyes are teeing it up against are a throwing team or a running team, or somesuch. Go Bucks

You have to play to the offense you're facing. No reason to use 3 LBs if the opposing offense is mainly in 3-4 WR schemes.

Fucking crushing.

Felt like a funeral in the city after that. Never imagined having that happen in a Game 7. Not only do you lose the game but the team likely just lost their window of opportunity - at least one solid year next year. That team and Haliburton deserves so much better with this ending. Incredible run and display of team basketball. I truly believe he was gonna do it tonight (3-4 3p start).

Sports are so fucking stupid sometimes. That series will haunt me for a long long time (Game 4 choke at home and the replay of Hali’s achilles blowing up the dreams of a title).

Will have to hang on to the ABA banners for now.
