Rather uninspired performance, especially in the 1st half. Could have used Sam's energy, and hopefully Morgan will also have some of that fire. Also, a big thumbs down to the uniforms. They are see through, as in you can see under the shorts where the shirts end. I hope they get lost in the wash tonight.

I'm with you. Outside of the top 75-100 players, guys have to develop. If you want to know next year's new guys, just as well watch mid majors.

Any word on when 1890 contributions start counting? That's where I have been donating. Not much, just $25 per month, but that would be 9 priority points a year based on the above.

Isn't there a cumulative component as well or am I making things up?

Guess I'll go without again this year, my time was just a few minutes away. 300 is just too far away for me. Maybe someday my baseball season tickets will get enough priority points to get in.

I partly agree. The market will settle with some schools unable to compete as they have in the past because they can't generate enough revenue. There is nothing wrong with that from a macro perspective, but it sucks if your school is left out. But I think this take is an oversimplification that also conflates 2 mostly unrelated things. It's true that the old ways exploited revenue producing athletes without giving them a fair share. A college education isn't a fair trade for the tens of millions big time football and basketball programs profit over a four year career. That education is worth about a million dollars over a lifetime, less if adjusted for inflation. They should get their share of those millions in their 4 year career instead of paying a coach $8 million a year or an extra dozen staffers who aren't truly necessary. It's also true (in my mind) that non revenue sports shouldn't get paid as much because they don't pay for themselves. That's a bad take on Title IX, which is about opportunity, not money. Taking football profits to provide opportunity, sure, but to pay players the same cash, no way. That full scholarship probably is a fair trade for their services. Completely separate is student loan forgiveness. That's about a broken system, and doesn't solve the unnecessarily inflated cost of an education caused by numerous factors, some the fault of borrowers making bad decisions, others the fault of universities providing worthless degrees and encouraging enrollment by people who have no business in college. And construction of buildings with donations but not including an endowment to pay for future operating costs. Forgiveness is reparations, not the fix.

So he's Charles Barkley then?

With success likely to be on the same level. It should be comedic gold, if not winning in the competitive sense.

What is this? Have we all forgotten Duby Okeke?

Danny dribbled the ball off his leg out of bounds giving Nebraska the ball for the game winning shot by Beau Reid, who sored "just 2" according to the PA running down the points by player as we filed out. I recall my parents missed the game because of a business trip to Vegas so my grandparents took us.
