2. in 1990 I think Verducci wrote an article in SI about durability. He correctly predicted Clemens would do OK due to his build, and also thought Saberhagen would break down and Gooden and Viola could go either way
And then you look at a guy like Pedro who was 165 pounds soaking wet pitch two decades without any arm injuries.

re: What are LSU fans thoughts on Les Miles? Do you guys believe the allegations against him?

Unless it was by default
It wasn’t. It was a bullshite lawsuit filed by a woman who simply lost her job, among others, in a restructuring of the AD. Her lawsuit was dismissed by the judge. Miles got awarded his fees for defending the lawsuit.

He sued LSU, the NCAA, and The National Football Foundation to have this overturned and restore his vacated wins so he could be eligible for the HOF. He lost.
Yeah that was a loser of a lawsuit he filed. Where he fricked up was taking the Kansas job. Had he not done that, even with the vacated wins, he’d still have maintained his eligibility for the HOF. LSU has no obligation to consult with a non-employee (or active employee for that matter) regarding their negotiations for sanctions to resolve a case.

You’re going to have to be more specific regarding what allegations you’re talking about. The lawsuit filed against him was dismissed and he got a judgment for his attorney fees.

Watching a bunch of amateur golfers, who have to hit mid and long irons when they play, get so butthurt about pros having to hit a mid or long iron into a par 3 has never made sense to me. That’s pretty much the only way to test a pro with a 4 iron, they’re never going to have a long iron into a par 4
I honestly wonder how many times pros hit a 4 iron throughout the year. So many of them are hitting mid irons on their second shot into par 5s now and are using scoring irons into most par 4s as far as they hit the ball. I saw some statistic about how infrequently Rory hits more than a 9 iron on approach shots into par 4s. It was ridiculously low
Which is why I laugh when people talk about how long par 4s are at majors. Like yeah, they should be tested like that at a major.
And then you see pros bitch about 250+ yard par 3s. Well yeah, the rest of us have to hit long irons into par 3s too.

Id say normal people Watch the reaction to “only X amount of people are under par!” Or “The cut is plus 7!!”
How about this, he finished one under the cut line and is 9 strokes behind the leader. Thats not good
Btw, you mentioned the 300 yard par 3. They wouldn’t turn that into a par 4. They’d just play from a forward tee box if it wasn’t so far. It would be one of the easiest holes in major tournament golf as a par 4. There are also a lot of 500+ yard par 4s on tournament courses. And the ones at Oakmont are right at 500 yards. That would be a really short par 5 for pros.
It’s a par 71 for members. The difference being #9 is a short par 5 at just 477 yards. That’s not an unreasonably long par 4 for pros either.
Based on the setup of the course it should be a par 70. You can’t just say, “well a plus 6 is actually like a plus 2.” It doesn’t work that way

What happened?
landed about a foot short of the pin with a ton of spin. WOuld have taken a big hop and stopped likely with a great putt at birdie. But it hit the flag and bounced back into the rough, and he made bogie

So the guy in DFL this week is grinding to break 90 today, shot a 47 on the front and is only +3 on the back. His name is George Duangmanee. He was an AA at UVA in college last year. He's played in one Tour event this year and made the cut. So basically, Trent may only be 14 shots worse than this guy

I hate they’re going to get all the rain this weekend. These greens could be some of the craziest we’ve seen if it stayed dry.
I think rain will, however, make the rough impossible with how dense it already is

feel bad for the poor bastard in last. He's sitting at +33 with 3 holes still left to play. Shot an 86 yesterday and is grinding to break 90 today.

Bryson is wrong if I had to guess.
Bryson said what he did during a break 50 challenge with Garrett Clark. It was one of those moments where Bryson was trying to sound smart like he had defeated conventional wisdom with science. What he said made no sense. The actual data shows he's wrong on every level

So where do we think the cut ends up? Data golf has it most likely to land at +7
