I don’t think any LSU fan would’ve believed that the peak of Kelly’s tenure at LSU would’ve been that 2pt conversion against Bama in 2022

Honestly I can’t think of an all time great who’s own fans haven’t truly accepted them into their all time greats

He hasn’t earned his stripes yet though

This isn’t a least favorite but to the poster’s point about removing things. This one I actually think is fine. But I know many that HATE it.

In Camden Yards, the left field used to be another 20-30 feet in. They actually moved the left field back and gave up ticket sales so pitchers would want to go to Baltimore more often in free agency.

The reason being was in 2019 the Orioles gave up the most HRs in MLB history by a decent margin, most of them to LF.

I like the move back. Although I know Ryan Mountcastle and recently Pete Alonso likely don’t given how many long flies to LF they’ve had.

I remember before I watched that press conference…

I looked at the MSB and the first thread title I saw was “Ever stuff jalapeños up your dick hole before your intro press conference?”

Probably the hardest I’ve ever laughed after seeing the clips

I honestly despise Jemele Hill and “none would exist” is extremely hyperbolic.

But there is the tiniest sliver of truth in her point.

Male reporters get close to sports folks in the know and having scoops by either being 1) the top shelf at their job (Woj, Schefty) that work nonstop and people can trust 2) by being dope arse bros to hang with 3) whatever the frick Brian Windhorst does

Strip clubs, partying of different kinds, yet keeping those secrets and being chill about it is how a minority (but not tiny) number of media folks get by. Kind of like how investment brokers used to be back in the day, and still do to a much lesser degree.

TBH It’s kind of exhausting when I’ve heard about it. It’s work. They do it consistently, and it’s how they maintain relationships. It’s their job and they didn’t get there with great test scores. Do what you have to do and are good at. No judgement.

I personally don’t think Diana outright fricks all of her sources, but I do think she plays into the woman flirty/intimacy angle at times to make men more comfortable to share things. I know myself and it would work on me. I personally don’t think that’s a “bad” thing either, but I understand why it’s a clear HR/ethics issue for her employers.

This whole “controversy” is just the veil coming off reality and people are clutching pearls, IMO.

This is like people arguing over who won the Stafford-Goff trade

All 3 of Cal, Arkansas, and Kentucky are in better places than they were in March 2024.

It’s rare, but it happens.

I mean you understand what I’m referring to here right re: with no help defense on screens and how Thomas plays.

As Cornelius noted modern basketball is very predicated on the kick out 3. Maleek gets a lot of kick outs but he’s solid off the dribble with a decent look. Yes, Acuff is better in that scenario but we need both guards to be in a groove to make any run.

At the end of the day everyone here knows as long as we assume good guard play, we’re going as far as our bigs take us.

With Hawaii playing no help defense where its just 1v1 all game, if Acuff can beat his man he may score 60.

I know everyone is hyped on Acuff right now, for good reason, but if Hawaii plays us 1v1 across the board, Thomas has a great chance to go off.

Not only do they play 1v1 but they go under screens. Best case scenario for us is if they do that consistently and Maleek shoots 8-10 3s in the first half (and makes most of them). Then we can suck the air out of the ball in the 2H and try not to get our legs too tired.

If we don’t make shots… then we have to grind out as much as we can before a potential MAJOR matchup with Wisconsin. It’s such a shame that potential matchup is in the R32.

It’s the tourney, anything can happen.

I don’t know a single Arkansas fan that would claim we’re a better program than Florida all time after 2025.

Prior to that it was close, after yall got your 3rd there was no debate.
