Its not derangement syndrome. Its that we have been here before and been let down. Literally just last year
2022: 11-1 going into SEC play. Won the first SEC game and then proceeded to lose 14 in a row
2024: 11-2 going into SEC play. Proceeded to then go 3-15 in SEC play.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Not getting fooled a third time. CMM has a lot to prove before fans are just willing to get their hopes up and buy into the team and beating up on a bunch of cupcakes aint gonna do it
re: What is going on with this LSU lake project

What active construction site have you seen that "looks good"? I think the project is going as expected and will look good when it is complete. Thats like driving on a road they're redoing and saying "this road is rough, what a failed project"

For once I'm actually going to defend this one. The schedule has been out and publicly available for a couple years now, its not their fault that the public didn't pay attention what they made publicly available. As far as the cost, the lakes are massive and anyone complaining about the cost of the actual construction doesn't work in the engineering or construction industry because those costs are in line with dredging projects
Eta: they have also utilized quite a bit of federal funding for this project through grants and the LWI program. That money doesn't move quick and can often get held up for numerous reasons. No money = no work

Serious question, who actually lives in this district. The district seems to gerrymander around residential homes, so where are these supposed people who didn't get a vote living?
ETA re-read the article and pulled this: According to the suit, as of February 2024, 125 voters were registered within the economic development district. Nine voters were registered to 3810 West Lakeshore Drive -- which is the address for the LSU Administration Building. 115 other voters were registered to LSU's campus, and one voter was registered to 3930 Burbank Drive, which is the South Gate Village strip mall next to Walk-Ons.
So it sounds like most of these voters are students/faculty that registered to vote using their on campus housing addresses

What a stupid f’n expenditure. The return on this will be dogshit at best.
This is just incorrect. LSU on average charges around $5500 per semester per student for housing. That's $11,000 per year per bed. Assuming this building will go 20+ years before needing renovations or repairs and you're currently missing out on revenue due to not being able to accomodate students on campus, its not a bad investment.

I would not bank on 9-9 even getting us in the tournament with how bad the SEC looks this season. It's seriously taken a gigantic step back. IF we go with just 1 loss in non-conf, maybe, but we would be nowhere near a 6/7 seed with a 9-9 conference record
The SEc might only be a 6 or 7 bid league this season.
I seriously disagree with this. The SEC currently has the most top 50 teams in the NET rankings, Ken Pom rankings, and Evan Miya. Every metric shows that the SEC is currently the deepest conference. Is the league overall as good as last year? No, but to say its a "gigantic" step back is nonsense. The SEC will still get somewhere around 10 bids.

Boston College will be an away game and the other two are neutral games so BC will be a Q3 game and the other two will be Q1 games
They played extremely well on both sides of the ball against Depaul. The next three games (maybe not Boston college because they're pretty terrible) should give a better glimpse into how this team performs against better competition. But so far, so good

I still don't quite understand what the media is so fricking up in arms about. Lane made it clear that he wanted to continue coaching at OM through the playoffs. OM said no, which they felt like was best for them. Wtf was Kiffin supposed to do? Refuse to leave and scew over the school even more?
re: (ESPN) Lane Kiffin's drawn-out coaching decision means one thing: He better win this week
Posted by Aforem7 on 11/24/25 at 8:20 am to Who_Dat_Tiger
If Ole Miss loses this week Kiffin may not be our next coach. Not because he won't accept our offer or doesn't want the job, but because OM fans may kill him

There's a couple websites that do CBB metrics, but I use EvanMiya
re: Basketball Observations
Posted by Aforem7 on 11/6/25 at 9:47 am to Bert Macklin FBI
The advanced metrics from last night weren't too bad. Robert Miller rated as the best overall player last night mainly driven by his defensive rating which was significantly higher than anyone else on the team. DJ and MacKinnon were the two highest rated offensive players obviously. PJ Carter was a liability defensively last night though it wasn't the biggest sample size so it'll be interesting to see how that changes as he gets more games.
Overall the defensive metrics weren't very good outside of Miller, which isn't surprising given the trend under mcmahon

ESPN Bet has atrocious promos and boosts
"Here's a 20% for your parlay, 4+ legs minimum, each leg (-200) or better, and it has to be a SGP"
No wonder why people are losing
Not to mention that you have to be careful of how big of a parlay you hit using their promos. They will pull your promos in a heartbeat if they catch you doing too well with them. They started doing mass promo pulls a few months ago and once I saw that I knew they were done for.
