Chinese Basketball Association (official thread)

Jimmer Fredette scores 40 in 4th, 75 overall in Chinese Basketball Association game

Former BYU star Jimmer Fredette scored 75 points in a Chinese Basketball Association game Sunday, a career high for the ex-NBA journeyman who is playing his third professional season in China.

After a slow start, Fredette found his groove and went on a scoring spree in the second half of the game, netting 40 points in the fourth quarter alone to set a league record.

However, Fredette's performance wasn't enough to lead the Shanghai Sharks past host Beikong, which prevailed 137-136. After he scored on an acrobatic layup to put his team up by two points with 7.2 seconds left in the game, Beikong's Pierre Jackson drained the winning 3.

"Absolutely sick about the loss tonight. But what a game it was! Proud of our guys for fighting back," Fredette wrote on Chinese social media after the game.

Since joining the CBA in 2016, Fredette -- who has been given the nickname "the lonely god" by the Sharks faithful -- has drawn many fans in China with his scoring ability and affable personality. In his inaugural season, Fredette scored 73 points in a double-overtime game, his previous career high.

Apparently they aren't really big on playing any defense in China.

Tim Brown (Official Thread)

Heisman Trophy of legendary Notre Dame WR Tim Brown set to be put up for auction

It will cost you a lot to get your hands on one of the most iconic trophies in sports


Tim Brown became a household name in 1987 when he led Notre Dame to the Cotton Bowl and was awarded the Heisman Trophy. Now, you can put his Heisman Trophy in your own home.

ESPN reported Friday that Brown's Heisman Trophy will be up for auction online through the New Jersey-based Goldin Auctions. The auction is scheduled to open on Nov. 19 and close on Dec. 8. Brown reportedly already sold the trophy last year, and it is being auctioned off by the unnamed buyer.

Ohio State @ Cincinnati, Wednesday Nov. 7 @ 6:00 PM, ESPN2

I agree. I think they're a solid 6-9 seed type team depending on how their close games pan out. The juggalos are just overreacting because A) a subset of them have always been after Cronin's head because he's not Huggins and B) many had too much emotionally invested in this game as their big chance to stick it to evil old O$U.

Even though it is us who should have something against them for the way Cronin snaked us back in the day

Game Thread Nebraska @ Ohio State - 11/03/18, 12:00PM (FOX)

The Not So Good…
  • The passing game was erratic at best. It was Haskins lowest completion percentage of the year (aided by two drops as well).
  • Third Down conversions were 33% for the game. But we only had nine third down plays.
The Bad…
  • Three turnovers.
  • Despite limiting the explosive plays, Nebraska held an edge in overall success rate. And the yards per play of 5.49 is still more than a good defense should permit.
Yeah, in addition to "missed tackles" and some of the "penalties", the "turnovers" and "dropped passes" need to get eliminated.

OH QB Jeffery Beverly

THE HURRY UP: MICHIGAN GAINING SIGNIFICANT GROUND WITH ZACH HARRISON, MORE DETAILS ABOUT JAXON SMITH-NJIGBA AND GOOD NEWS ON AIDAN KEANAAINA

BEVERLY RELEASES FRESHMAN TAPE

Back on Oct. 11, I spoke with Franklin Heights quarterback Jeffery Beverly about his visit to Ohio State earlier this season. At the time, Beverly said, "I like how [Ohio State] is a big team and filled with a bunch of kids who want to graduate and earn a degree. I'm looking to just build a better relationship and eventually see more and learn more about OSU."

Beverly, in the class of 2022, has already been on multiple visits to Ohio State and has kept in contact with coaches Ryan Day, Devon Smith and Ed Terwilliger. This past week, he posted his freshman season highlight video.

Sharrif Floyd (official thread)

Sharrif Floyd suing Dr. James Andrews for $180M

Andrews and the Andrews Institute for Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine, alleging he suffered permanent nerve and muscle damage following a knee procedure in September 2016.

The lawsuit was announced in a statement by Floyd's lawyer Brad Sohn that was obtained by NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.

"If you break something, you pay for it," Sohn said. "And this lawsuit seeks to hold the parties' responsible who we allege have done so. This guy went in for a routine knee scope and left without his incredibly lucrative career."

The suit alleges Floyd was told he needed arthroscopic knee surgery and that he'd be out for 3-4 weeks. Instead, he underwent a more "significant procedure" and suffered permanent nerve and muscle damage in his right leg that Floyd and his lawyers believe was the result of a negligently administered pain blocker by the Andrews Institute.

Former Gator Shariff Floyd takes lead in class-action suit against NCAA

Just sayin': Floyd should have worked on a law defgree at Florida. If his cases are actually legit (and I have no reason to believe they aren't), he could save millions in legal fees.

Who bought cheap candy for Halloween?

Well, I made my annual pilgrimage to the candy/holiday aisle on November 1... so I bought Halloween candy for cheap. Does that count.
And yes, I'll be headed that way on December 26, February 15, and the Monday after Easter.
No, buying quality candy for a discount, does not constitute buying cheap candy (dollar tree(
