    Why not let him announce it? It's his moment and he scheduled the time for making that announcement

    Financial Aid Advice

    Depends on your schedule. My calc 1 was a small section led by a grad student but it met MTWF 5-6pm. My calc 2 was a 200-person section with a prof MWF with recitation 1 day a week. My calc 3 was about 100 students with a prof in the Marston auditorium. Diffy Q felt like roughly 40 students...

    Tamin Lipsey has minor shoulder procedure

    Tendonitis (inflammation of tendons) does not necessitate surgery. RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation) and a little P/T knocks out tendonitis. He had something more going on than tendonitis

    Virginia Law to allow schools to pay players for NIL

    It was kind of fun watching how Kansas performed in basketball this year with the under the table adidas money pipeline terminated and everyone else having above the table options. Would like to see the outcome sustained for a few years in a row.

    Seat selection

    My section is within my donor level, the former student section seats start at Cardinal in section 37 which is where we are. Fun fact, ISU athletics utilizes parts of section 36 for recruits and athletes if you ever want to see who is in on visits. Anyhow, when the price resets in 2025, the...

    In Memoriam: Ames Business/Restaurants

    That's fair, to each their own. Inside of Hilton, that bit was just too loud, like the other poster stated, it was cringe for me as well. And, hearing 18x for about a decade run. We were glad it was gone in recent years. Good location though, something should be able to make it work there

    Spring Clean Up-Johnston

    Have you bought lumber recently? I can't imagine it sits for very long. If a portion of it is uncut or of decent similar lengths, you would find a buyer pretty quickly if you tried to

    Update to NCAA transfer rules on the horizon?

    Coaches need to bring some integrity to the table and not participate in that hypothetical midyear replacement player

    Update to NCAA transfer rules on the horizon?

    I think the academic part is in there because if you would have been on academic probation at one school, you should not be able to transfer away and avoid that penalty. Your probation travels with you. In the NFL, a parallel example would be the free agent facing PED suspension. He doesn't...

    John Calipari to Arkansas

    I just crunched the numbers. 15 years at Kentucky, in the 14 years that have been followed with a draft/NBA season, he has had 59 guys play in the NBA. That's 4.2/year. Of course multiple years had overlap so well above 4.2 per roster. And yet, 1 title in year 3 and no final fours across the...

    Omaha enters the transfer portal (confirmed)

    Jesse Pritchard played at Yale, and like Bubu, was a year older. Michael weber was the point guard with Barnes/McDermott and I think he was productive at Kirkwood CC.
