    RECRUITING: Jett Thomalla (4-star QB 2026 commit) flips to Alabama

    Taking my Cardinal colored glasses off… It’s not absurd that Bama would be an attractive place to play. DeBoer put Penix in the NFL. Winters are easier. Facilities are outstanding. National Championships. 4-5 stars at every skill position around you. Beautiful coeds. It stinks we lost him, but...

    P Lucas Tenbrock Commits!

    6’6” 220. That man is huge!

    RECRUITING: Jett Thomalla (4-star QB 2026 commit) flips to Alabama

    Bummer. How many 9-4 seasons will DeBoer get before they move onto a new coach?

    Aer Lingus Classic items. Tickets, planning, etc.

    Teeling is another distillery in Dublin. They’re relatively new and I haven’t done the tour, but their stuff is good

    I’ll 2nd the Hardiman and the restaurant downstairs. We had a fantastic seafood stew and mussels there. You can’t get any closer to the bus/train station either. Sounds like you had an awesome trip!

    Williams & Blum: Should the Big 12 consider the 4-4-2-2 model?

    Absolutely. It’s basically Ohio State, Michigan, sometimes Penn State. Now they have Washington and Oregon. USC should be better, but they’re running on brand name only. Everyone else is AnySchool USA. The more I think of it, the more it’s clear that the SEC is gaming all of this. They’re good...

    Williams & Blum: Should the Big 12 consider the 4-4-2-2 model?

    Nitpicking, but TCU did beat Michigan in the 4 game model before getting blown out by UGA in the title game.

    Williams & Blum: Should the Big 12 consider the 4-4-2-2 model?

    The B1G/SEC don’t want to earn it on merit. There’s too much money at stake. It’s the same reason American soccer will never implement Promotion/Relegation: MLS teams spend huge sums upfront for access to the top league. They don’t want smaller clubs getting a piece of the pie nor do they want...

    Ross Dellenger report on SEC spring meetings

    The SEC totally wants the top 12 ranked teams. They typically start the season with favorable pre-season rankings (media bias) and their 8 game schedule means those teams either duck the others or get a “quality loss” head to head. They want +6 teams in the CFP. #7 beats #9 and moves up to #5...

    Ross Dellenger report on SEC spring meetings

    I’d agree there. College athletics programs are merely in a charade as Non Profit entities at this point. Congress may have to do something if multiple college towns suffer significant enough economic downturn from P4 relegation. It’s arguably a states issue, but things are in a bad way when...

    Ross Dellenger report on SEC spring meetings

    You’re always gonna have (totally unbiased) coaches pushing the narrative that more teams from their conference should be At Large. Kirby Smart recently came out with comments. Saban used to do it. Kiffin did it last year. Hmm maybe it’s distinctly an SEC thing? Why should the 4th place team in...

    Ross Dellenger report on SEC spring meetings

    The problem is, entities get a chance to self regulate. If they fail, the government often steps in. The NCAA failed to self regulate years ago and now the train is off the tracks.

    Ross Dellenger report on SEC spring meetings

    Well said. Effectively the P2 is generating more inventory for its media partners.

    Haliburton Does It Again

    I’ll never understand why the Pacers didn’t drive into KAT in the 3Q when he had 4 fouls. Instead they backed off let him go for 20. Nembhard had several open looks he passed on. Losing Nesmith stifled the O with the bench looking mismatched. Credit to NY with McBride sparking the comeback and...

    Your Holy Grail of Cyclone Game Memorabilia

    I want the spying cell phone that Jerome Tang found in our crowd

    Haliburton Does It Again

    I chalk it up to Tyrese and the Pacers having a chip on their shoulder. Knicks have gotten a lot of coverage and the number of celebrity bandwagon fans is staggering. Most people expect NY to win the series. Pacers of course are small market. They already took down the 1 seed, Cleveland...

    Your Holy Grail of Cyclone Game Memorabilia

    I want the ball that Konrardy kicked at the end of Iowa game in 2024. Alternatively it would be special to have Melvin Ejim’s jersey from his XII scoring record game against TCU. I was in the building that day as a student and it was incredible.

    Aer Lingus Classic items. Tickets, planning, etc.

    Nice! I have heard the Cliffs trail from Doolin is closed due to a storm, so I’d opt for the public lot. You get a nice view from the top of the stairs, and the visitors center is pretty cool. You could realistically knock that out in 30-45 mins. My Irish buddy here said Innisheer is the way...

    Also sorry as it’s unsolicited, but I’ll share. Clare has some incredible natural beauty and medieval history. In Doolin (for kids) you could ride out to Caherconnell Fort and see a sheepdog demonstration plus a Celtic fortress that’s been excavated. The Burren in general looks like something...

    Try to catch a Trad music session at McGann’s in Doolin if you can. Food and pints were solid. Also, locals said best fish and chips was at McDermott’s.
