    Students paying students: How the U is trying to stay competitive in athletics

    It is wrong. NCAA college football is nearly as lucrative as every sports league outside of the NFL with a fraction of the costs while operating as a supposed "non-profit". If they can't find the money in the immense amount of revenue flowing into these schools then i'd love to see where all...

    Damian Lillard going home back to Portland

    I saw that Carmelo Anthony tweeted when Dame got cut implying that the Bucks were an example of lacking loyalty. Carmelo's biggest problem is that he's just a dumb person. Lillard made his money and gets to recover and rehab at home. The Bucks were being generous to Dame.

    All Things Class of 2026 Minnesota Gophers Basketball Recruiting Thread

    I'm with you, I've only seen him online. There is a channel on Youtube that plays some HS basketball games and I tuned in to watch someone else and came out of it thinking "WTF is this guy?" So I agree. I don't see how that kid isn't a high end D1 player. Like what is he missing?

    I really like Micah Curtis and I think there is a very good chance he is looking for greener pastures in a year or two, but he's in the 2025 class. He's going to UND before he portals to the U in 2027.

    The Grizzlies are hiring Ryan Saunders as the lead assistant coach under Tuomas Iisalo, per sources.

    Gotcha. For whatever reason, I thought he was in charge of offense duties.

    I had heard criticisms that the offense had no structure, it was just Jokic and guys standing around. That said, I'm not sure there is a better offense than that.

    Good for him! It's kind of an interesting hire. Supposedly, Ryan Saunders was the architect of Denver's offense last year and the offense received a ton of criticism. I have my doubts Malone gives his assistants a ton of slack to do their own thing, so I am not sure if that means anything. With...

    5 star tackle commits to TTU for 5mil over 3 years

    I dislike the direction of college football is headed as much as anyone but I think the discussions of people wondering where the money is coming from are a product of people not understanding how lucrative college football really is. In terms of revenue, it's in the same ballpark as the NBA...

    Yeah, it sounds like he wants to finish his career near his home.

    Wolves Summer League

    Agreed. It's one thing to be 7'0" and bouncy, but that man can cover an elite amount of space. 100%. If you can move like that at his height and you can catch a pass. . . you're in the NBA.

    All Things 2025 Minnesota Timberwolves Off-Season Thread

    Zikarsky looked exactly how slow I would have expected him to look. If he wasn't "plodding", he would have been a top 10 pick. I don't know if he ever translates to the NBA, but maybe he can end up being our Boban. Dilly did not look good at all yesterday. Maybe he was pressing to impress...

    Movies that hold up vs. those that don't

    There are actually a bunch of them in Austin. The one from the movie is in Zilker Park which is where like ACL Music Festical is located. I actually think they use that moontower to hang the lights for the fake Christmas tree in Austin.

    Movies that hold up vs. those that don't

    Yeah, you know, I always assumed this but I guess they do never say it. Great movie! About two weeks ago I was at a coffee shop and I was walking back to my car and saw a plaque that said something about Dazed and Confused being filmed there. I couldn't recognize the spot, turns out it was the...
