So did he just walk away from $17M over two years, or does he get at least some of that remaining contract dollars?

The biggest upside potential in terms of additional revenue is football. We have a large stadium that isn't consistently sold out. We just need to be in the hunt for the national championship every year... The biggest upside potential that is more realistically achievable, is an improvement in...

Adding another Russian, along with Yurov, to the team makes the Wild more friendly for KK.

The only way it's a good grade is if the assignment was to not spend any money on new players. These players will not make next year's roster. We could have easily added needed scoring talent, instead we have two projects, both rim protecters that can't score and have trouble making free throws...

Both picks by the Wolves make little sense to me. We're in a need-to-win-now mode, and instead we draft two similar players - rim defenders that can't shoot - who are both projects. Two Rudy clones. For the second pick they should have stuck with Fleming. After they kept dropping down, I was...

I don't really like how this is setting up for us. After all these years waiting for the JP and Suttor contracts to end, I was hoping for much more. It looks like we're going to throw everything at KK to have a shot at keeping him, and in the process have very little depth on this team. If we...

With NIL, I've completely flipped on this. Now, if a MN local heads to an out-state team, and then comes back, I'm okay with that. Let them spend time in the other team's weight room burning the other team's NIL dollars, and come back when you've put on enough weight and gained enough experience...

PSU is a solid game-day experience for visitors, and I'll have to admit a solid program for a player to join. Not as elite as PJ and our home team, but they still have a some-what elite coach.

Joining the Gophers IMO makes a lot of sense for big time RBs. We run the ball a lot, and our games have all seasons of weather (versus, say Texas where you never play in cold temps). As for the "all weather" item, the one P4 college coach that I knew said that was a bigger deal than people...

Seems like there are a few "had died" threads, so I thought I'd start one of a band you've probably never heard of, but do give 'em a listen. They were described to me as a cross of The Beatles, ELO, Queen, and Yes, and I suppose that's pretty true. The one song you may have heard of theirs is...

The issue I had is that MLS changed a Loons game start time from mid-afternoon to evening, and that messed up the ability for people to buy and sell tickets on SeatGeek in the hours prior to the game happening. According to SeatGeek, the game had already happened, but it was actually going to be...

I use SeatGeek more than any others, but it also has terrible customer service.

The Oilers top line is better than Florida's top line. Florida's 2nd, 3rd and 4th lines are better than the Oiler's 2nd, 3rd and 4th lines (but not by a lot) Florida's goalie is better than the Oiler's goalie (I think by quite a bit) I'd really like to see the Oiler's win it this year, but I'm...

Maybe we can trade Rudy for this Walker kid from Utah. He looks pretty good, and he's only 23... If you run the math, Rudy is only providing 0.01 blocks per game for every million dollars we pay him, compared to Kessler’s 0.84 rejections per million. Think we can also get Utah to throw in say...
