Yeah, like a golden retriever would do anything but lick a person to death. Best dogs ever, BTW.

re: LSU men's tennis will be very high in the new computer rankings

European Junior Tennis really stepped up big in the past couple of decades. Their training is superior. It seems there is only 1 or 2 Americans per college tennis teams at all college levels. It is very difficult to earn a spot on an American College tennis team unless your UTR is stratospheric. I've had a long concern that this pushed great American athletes away from playing tennis due to the very large number of foreign tennis players in college tennis and resultant decline in scholarship offers to Americans. Not to mention college tennis for the men has lost upteen programs since the dawn of title IX ( Title IX was needed but maybe they could have carved football out of it since it was the major money maker and floater of all programs).. It takes years of development to become this good.in tennis. Not sure of a great answer to this: limit # foreign players per team? I don't think the USTA National Office has a great plan either. I am not surprised that the US has not won a major in 23 years. When you grew up in the 60,70.80,90's the US was well represented in the grand slams. Not so much anymore. Here's hoping Ben Shelton or Taylor Fritz or some uppencomer can get the job done. Here's hoping that American junior tennis can breed some truly big timers in the game.

BTW, go watch LSU tennis or any of the top 50 DI schools and watch the great level of play. The foreigners certaily can bring it. The atomosphere is electric and watch the speed and skill of the college players. Their are top notch. Just wish more Americans were in the mix.

Its much more difficult to go on CWS runs now compared to when USC did it.

re: Is Les Miles a top 5 SEC Coach all time?

Arkansas had good lines on both sides of the ball and good backs. Miles lost to Arkansas because he was afraid or too stupid to use a more wide open offense against Arkansas and Alabama for that matter. He played to both of those opposing teams strength.

Weird that I have loved listening to Don ( a little taste of home) while on my way to fly fish up here in North Arkansas or duck hunting or going to work. Thanks Don!

He has multiple of millions of dollars and you think he is done?
He may be spending the time of his life with family and grandkids and playing all the golf he wants. He is likely living a dream.

Do you think starting the season later with hope of more cold weather would bring more ducks into Louisiana?

Don't discount Monster's base running not related to stealing base. I think he is excellent (off the ball) so to speak.

re: There were actually people that thought Nuss wasn’t hurt

Posted by FlyFishinTiger on 1/29/26 at 9:33 am to T1gerNate

He was absolutely hurt. His throwing motion was distorted by his torso injury. He short armed a lot of throws with arm tucked too close to torso. He would wince often while trying to move about. Unfortunately , VAn Buren was not a great option to go to as was proven by horrible offensive play when he did get in.
