    @MacyJR1: Since you started this thread and you are my official "rules of the game" person (and this post doesn't really fit anywhere else)... ... in the Texas vs Tennesse basketball game, with about a minute left, Texas inbounded the ball from the sideline of their own court (their offensive...

    Nice to see the locals getting pumped up for an NIT game - I mean that, it's nice for Terra Haute to pack their stadium. Also, note to @MaxyJR1 , replace the "x" with "twitter" and your posts will populate within the thread.

    Trev Alberts bolts Nebraska, upgrades as new AD of A&M

    Dannen came from Tulane. I can't find it now (just spent at least 2 minutes trying) - there was an article in nola.com where he said there was more support from university admins for the football program at Tulane then there is at Washington. Seems really surprising, Tulane is a small school...

    Yes, of course I picked WisconSIN to lose. On my way to not winning this contest. Winner gets a million dollars, right?

    The B1G is 8-2 in post-season play. This includes Oregon and the NIT. Nebraska and Wisconsin are the two losers.

    Pharrell Payne Free Throws

    In a crunch time, he can always say he hurt his back and let someone else take the FT for him. I'm not saying he faked it yesterday, that looked like a pretty brutal blow, but he did come back onto the court right afterwards.

    Thoughts on the LAFC game: We were outplayed again, yet came away with the win, again. We abandoned the high press and instead went with a tight low-block. I'm hoping this was just done because it was LAFC, I like the high press. Our weakest starting player is Taylor, he's not bad, but he's...

    Do you want Ben back for a fourth year?

    If a team is improving, keep the coach. This team improved, a LOT.

    boxing

    I never was a big boxing fan, but had a friend take me to "fight night in NY". I don't remember who all was on the cards, but definitely remember that seeing a boxing match live is WAY more impressive than seeing one on TV. A totally different experience. You just don't see the power, quickness...

    Which QB do the Vikes draft?

    I think we'll actually trade down from our 11th pick, and I'm hoping that in the 2nd round we'll draft Pratt (from Tulane). Tulane was a terrible team until Pratt took over at QB, and now that he's leaving for the pros, Tulane's coach left as well (to Houston).

    Before and After: Comparing Kenpom Rankings From Start to Finish For All 14 Big Ten Teams

    Purdue should fire their lousy coach, dropping like they did in the rankings. Hope they don’t come after Ben though, us rising so much.

    Last week's game was a fun one: Whoever sang the national anthem was great, they should have her do it every game. Love the high press. Much more fun to watch than Heath's "let them have the ball and we'll hope for a quick counter" approach. Even if the Loon's lose, it's a far more entertaining...

    Christie going pro?

    He really needs another year. He’s not NBA ready right now.

    Spann -Ford and Nubin invited to NFL Combine.

    I'll put up Brady Weeks as making an NFL roster. He's played in every kind of weather there is, and I believe is 100% on snaps, plus he was the top rated long snapper in the country when he was recruited.

    All Things Weather

    My neighbor keeps very detailed weather records - he's a flight controller so it kind of goes with his job. Today we had "ice-out" day on our lake, which is the earliest it's been since 1998 (which is when he started recording data). Before this year, the earliest "ice-out" day was March 7th...

    Wow, that was really an impressive game by the Loons. That first half was total domination. We had the same players as last year, minus two key starters, so I wasn't expecting much at all. Then along comes a totally different tactic of high pressure (ya, I know they said they were going to do...
