re: Are we really surprised by the NIT opt-outs? - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 9:38 pm The only reason it hasn’t happened in college football is because the conferences have multi-million dollar tie-ins with the bowls. The schools get about $5,000 per game as a payout for playing in the NIT.... Posted on More Sports Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |
re: Why did most Brewbachers close? - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 8:58 pm Brewbachers serves a purpose. It’s usually a fallback place for me and my family when either (a) no one is craving anything in particular and/or (b) no one can decide on a place. It has a varied enough menu that everyone can find something they like.
Is it the best burger ever? No. Best po-boy. ... Posted on Food and Drink Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |

re: What is the most impressive item on tResume thus far to the McMen? - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 4:23 pm [quote]First of all, it would be surprising - and funny - if anyone actually read these long threads.
But mostly, I find it amusing that the Will Wade Glee Club can complain, cry, stomp their feet, protest, clench their fists and create thread after thread, year after year...and they will never s... Posted on Tiger Rant Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |
re: Who is going to be the NIL benefactor for the LSU men's basketball program? - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 3:42 pm [quote]McMahon has made it clear at press conferences that he is old school. He likes the four year development model. He is not a huge fan of the portal and NIL. This is beyond obvious.[/quote]
I don't think any coach is necessarily a fan of the NIL/transfer landscape because it creates so much ... Posted on Tiger Rant Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |
re: NIT: LSU Men hosting North Texas in Opening Round, Tuesday at 6 PM CT, SECN/ESPN+ - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 3:32 pm [quote]Will respectfully disagree. Losing a game in the 1st round of the NCAA cannot compare with winning 5 games and a championship in the NIT. From a player, coach and fan standpoint. And true basketball fans, not just LSU fans, know who wins both tournaments because they watch. I knew who won the... Posted on Tiger Rant Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |
re: Who is going to be the NIL benefactor for the LSU men's basketball program? - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 3:19 pm [quote]If you look at how he's come up in the biz it makes sense. Before he got here he only had one year as an assistant at a major college. App st, UNC-Wilmington, and Murray weren't doing a lot of big time recruiting battles.[/quote]
You could say the same thing about Wade. Harvard > VCU(asst)... Posted on Tiger Rant Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |
re: NIT: LSU Men hosting North Texas in Opening Round, Tuesday at 6 PM CT, SECN/ESPN+ - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 2:43 pm [quote]I would rather go to the NCAA tournament but if the question is would I rather win the NIT or lose the first round of NCAA that is a no brainer. Win the NIT. Duh. To go through a tournament experience like that and end up winning the championship game can do wonders for your players coming ba...

re: Who is going to be the NIL benefactor for the LSU men's basketball program? - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 2:07 pm Wade wasn't bankrolling everyone on his own nickel. There's money out there to support the basketball program. Granted, not as much as there is for football. But you also don't need as much either.

re: Things to keep in mind when filling out brackets - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 1:57 pm Since 2002, every National Champion has had the following mix in the KenPom data:
Top 40 in adjusted offensive efficiency
Top 25 in adjusted defensive efficiency
The teams that fit that criteria are the following:
Houston
Tennessee
Auburn
North Carolina
UConn
Arizona
St. Mary's

re: Teams that have turned down the NIT - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 1:42 pm [quote]It’s basically the Music City Bowl/Texas Bowl/Liberty Bowl of college basketball. You never hear of football teams turning down leaser bowl games.[/quote]
That's because often times the conferences have contracts with the bowl games that aren't really governed by the NCAA. And the schools,... Posted on More Sports Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |
re: Bruno Mars allegedly has a $50 million gambling debt with MGM - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 1:18 pm [quote]I mean….. I’m sure MGM will come up with some sort of “residency” to pay it off.[/quote]
I like Bruno Mars. I thought about taking my wife to one of his concerts this year. So I looked to see where he is playing this year.
He is playing in the US...in only ONE city....Las Vegas....a... Posted on O-T Lounge Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |
re: NIT: LSU Men hosting North Texas in Opening Round, Tuesday at 6 PM CT, SECN/ESPN+ - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 1:12 pm [quote]All I remember about the game that while North Texas was a tough "out", I felt like LSU was the better team. [/quote]
It was a close game throughout with NTU leading most of the second half. It was a 3 point game with 2:00 to go. LSU pulled away a bit at the end. It was one of many game... Posted on Tiger Rant Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |
re: Was Walker Howard way overrated or is there more to the story? - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 11:47 am [quote]He never should have went to LSU
I get it you grew up around the program and it’s your dream but if you’re not coming into a situation where they need you to start as a sophomore you should just go elsewhere.
For example he could have went to a Big12 school and probably start by now.

Not really. Yes, the likely high draft picks often opt out. But so do guys who want to transfer.
The coaches want to coach. But they will often let the players decide if they want to play in the... Posted on Tiger Rant Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (1) |
re: NIT: LSU Men hosting North Texas in Opening Round, Tuesday at 6 PM CT, SECN/ESPN+ - Alt26 on 3/18/24 at 10:30 am [quote]Has North Texas improved that much since we played them? LSU has improved a great deal since then, especially Ward and Hannibal. The 2 players who played well in that game were Baker and Fountain.[/quote]
They have a higher NET and KenPom rating than LSU.

Apples and oranges. Point is Wade went to NIT after terrible seasons under Jones. Mcmahon is going to NIT his second year but his first year was a cluster f**k due to the Wade situation before. That is a fact. And Wade went to the... Posted on Tiger Rant Jump to Post - View Topic - Replies (0) |
