At ~12:00 pm in November it's generally directly overhead



The sun is definitely not directly overhead in November, it will be more southerly because we are approaching the winter solstice which means it will continue to rise further south and trace the sky at a lower more southern angle. Unless I missed something and tiger stadium is now in South America the sun will never be directly overhead head in November. Certain areas of the south end zone will have some shade. Most of the stadium will be in the sun.

Well if you watched Klubnik and Allar vs any competition, you’d understand they were fools gold and sucked against actual ranked teams

Good point

I hate to tell you, but by 2030 when all the tv contracts come up, it will only be sec and power four(maybe 5 if the pac12 can survive) games. Expanded playoffs too. They will need to maximize revenue with the rev share.

TM7 was definitely a 4 star. Maybe not when we offered, but was almost top 100 by the end of the cycle.
The roll back and equipment thing bothers me the most, people wanna act like the players have nothing to do with the distance and speed also. I've seen videos where they challenge pros to hit old persimmons and titaniums and they are still hitting it 20-30 yards past their past counterparts were then.

The NFL didn't make the fields longer because everyone is faster and the cleats are better and the uniforms are more aerodynamic

You still just have to score lower the the other 150 guys in the tournament and that's the whole point.

Don’t think UNO plays at Bayou Oaks but what a great round. 64 is legit.


You would think wrong. They play there often.

Kyle Bennett is on fire, Kid played 3 years at UNO so I'm sure he knows the course well.
I’m not a fan of the sessions in the Nationals, 4 best scores should advance. It a shame Mizzou gets to a final with a 197.3 because their session is pathetic
Sears was asked to do the exact same thing he did before at the SEC level and was very undersized and not athletic enough. Bringing him up in a comparison with a 6'6 gifted athlete is incredibly self serving to your argument.

Projecting guards form mid majors is difficult. One of the main reasons is most of these mid major and below guards will almost always be the primary ball handlers for their current team, if not the late clock iso roles. He will be in a completely different role here.

EX :Wrightsell was that way at Fullerton and was taking a bunch of shots off the bounce, granted it was 38 percent which is good. He has jumped to 44% over the last two years(this year being shorted) at bama as a catch and shoot guy.

Coaches are breaking these transfers down to how they wanna use them and not necessarily how they are being and have been used.

According to guys who know ball, King is a tenacious defender and plus athlete with a exponentially developing offensive game. Right now hes the best wing player we have imo. Hes 36 percent on catch and shoot 3s and very good when driving the closeout. Will be a different player for us.

thats why NC State locked him down before the tourney started. IF he makes a run, his stock gets higher.


Not really, the transfer portal is the main reason. It’s opens 3/24 and most teams wanna have a coach in place by then. Miami had a deal in place with Jai Lucas from duke in February and announced March 5. Can’t wait or you’re screwed. But they got a proven winner and the guy they wanted, but would have waited if the timing was different.
I don’t see how anyone can determine his speed in that video.

ETA:

I’m sure there is a calculation using distance and frame rate. Besides the point. Two people are dead and it’s senseless to speak ill of either one. God rest both their souls.
But she also ran the light, in that case they both made mistakes and it’s just an awful situation.
Lots of people getting upset at this motorcycle guy are in the wrong. The video posted shows the north bond light still green. If you are turning left on to Nich Ext(S Quad now) that turn signal stays red until the north bond lane gets a red. Has been this way for years. It looks like she even tries to stop when she realizes the mistake and stops for a second. Two young people lost their life and the response that one of them basically deserves it is sickening. It appears she made a mistake and she didn’t deserve to die because of it. Just sad all around.

I heard from a member the Stay and Play is likely to come back after the renovations are done, but the prices will be much higher. Think Cabot or Streamsong.
What is the average viewership for espn programming for a mid January Tuesday night. That’s the real question. I suspect almost 700k is still over that number.

USC might be his landing spot. Isn't Mensah from SoCal?


He also feels like a Kiffin type. Ole Miss will no doubt offer.
Tells me you just look at stats and not much else. His receivers dropped several balls that game, it was almost comical. They also had three fumbles(not by him) on the opponents side of the field. The Memphis game was the rest of the team coming out flat and Mensah doing his best to keep it together.

Watched or attended almost every game this year as a member of a split Tulane/LSU household. I can tell you this kid is talented. He is extremely accurate and get the balls in his receivers hands in stride giving yards after catch opportunities. Above avg arm strength, but not a bomber. Athletic but not a running QB. I think he is highly comparable to Jordan Love.

His style of play marries well to a good running game, effective in play action, boot and rolls. Anticipates throws well and layers balls into zones with accuracy. His best plays came on intermediate throws over the middle, often off of some form of run action. We would be lucky to get him, but he looking to cash in and start. He is also going pro after 2025 with a good season, so he's either a one year rental or a disappointment.
