    Hardest to watch next season.

    Penn St will be the hardest for sports fans to ignore. The way the sport is marketed means we'll see mentions, ads, etc... even during our broadcasts. Audi won't really impact me, I think off the court, she's the biggest loss (great ambassador, local kid, huge fanbase with youngters) but her...

    Milan Momcilovic commits to Kentucky

    Appreciate what he did here but if you go to Kentucky, you're now one of the bad guys. I'll be a fan if he makes the league but I will be rooting for Kentucky to lose every game, every year.

    Which state is most Midwestern?

    It's a mix of IA, NE, MN,WI,IL,MO, IN, KS and even a little bit of SD. That region would exclude some parts of most states but cover all of Iowa.

    High School Sports Thread

    I'm an assistant coach at a small school (FB and boys BB) and our school has VB practice MWF with league games on Sunday, boys basketball goes MF with a league on W nights and two other tournaments. Girls bball goes T/Th with league on Sunday (they travel about 70 miles immediately after VB...

    Milan Momcilovic withdraws from the 2026 NBA Draft

    It's nothing personal but I wish him nothing but failure if he ends up at Kentucky. I will root for them to lose every game every year no matter who plays for them. None of us should want them to have success, they're everything awful about the sport.

    Milan Momcilovic tweets "entering NBA draft and portal"

    Nah, it will finally start then. If he withdraws from the draft and goes to Kentucky, this thread will go at least another 27 pages on NIL, bluebloods, stingy ISU fans, JP will catch some strays. Plenty of room left for discussion. If he stays, there will be a bit less fruit on the vine but I...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    The NFL has an agreed upon salary cap and everyone plays by the same rules. Would this new league play like that? Would tOSU and Michigan ever agree to play nice and not use their financial advantage? Probably not, that would make this new league more like the MLB, teams would spend whatever...

    Jackson Kiss changes commitment to UNLV

    With Singleton and Manning coming in, he's probably 3rd string next year which isn't going to be much, if any PT. Then he'd be backup to Singleton for a couple of years. This was probably inevitable unless he blew up and outplayed those guys this year. He just did it a year early.

    Lilacs not flowering

I have some iris that get a boost from the dryer vent that look great but just a few feet away nothing blooming.i got my iris plants from my dad so I like to pick them for...

    NBA: *** 2025-26 NBA Thread ***

    My hot take is they won't get over the hump with Edwards. He as talented as anyone but mentally, he's not a guy who can lead a team. Off the court, he still seems very immature and not that serious about bball. His talent has allowed the league and organization to ignore things that most other...

    High School Baseball/Softball Concession Stands

    Walking taco vs hot dog is a more interesting debate than I would have thought.

    BREAKING: Matt Campbell, Penn State in final stages

    Campbell is a great coach but to be at the level some are expecting, he will have to change a lot about how he runs a program. To compete in the CFP you have to use the portal. That isn't exactly how he likes to build his program. He needs buy in and control, that's tougher when you're bringing...

    BREAKING: Matt Campbell, Penn State in final stages

    I'm pretty sure that Lions deal leaked and then was discredited after the other Campbell ended up there. I remember the report coming out that they had a deal with Matt.

    Donovan Davis announced on May 6th that he committed to the Cyclones!!!

    McCollum fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The first is never get into a land war in Asia but only slightly less well known is this, never go in against TJ when a Wisconsin recruit is on the line.
