Happy Tuesday fanatics.
There isn’t much actual news to throw into this roundup but I feel like a big LINKS GALORE is appropriate.
Before I get to that, who all will be at Meet the Coaches Night tonight? I’ll be joining a group of fanatics there so if you’re around, stop by our table and say hello. Should be a great time.
