    Joens Signed by Las Vegas Aces / Wings / Mercury X 2

    Just left the Lynx-Mercury game. So awesome to watch those two play. Both play so hard. Bridget does mean so much to her team. She had some difficult defensive assignments tonight(speedy guards and helping to griner) thought she did well, and her rebounding and threes were great. Ashley...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Arizona is coming at some point; they’re the next domino. I’ve been trying to work out the possible Oregon backdrop in my head. BigXII wants Oregon, and I want Oregon. BY is brilliant at marketing. He pushes the envelope in exciting ways. He throws out splashy ideas that other conferences...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    That’s exactly my point. Arizona will likely move before then, oct-Dec is when the big xii needs their answer by.

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    I think what you’re saying is a possible/likely schedule. I just really want to emphasize it’s not critical to us that Arizona move this week. We have until late fall. BY posturing this way is brilliant

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    BigXII waits for Arizona until OCT-DEC 2023. MU left for SEC in Nov and played that following fall. If there’s no movement by then, and I don’t think that will happen, you stay at 13. The BigXII schools don’t want UCONN, Fox likely doesn’t either. There’s tons of time left to be patient and...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    That’s one way to look at Robbins being on the PAC exec committee. I think it’s completely a non-issue, other than Arizona being much more likely than CU to require waiting until after the bad media rights deal gets released, to jump. That’s always been the case. BigXII has the leverage now...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    I don't disagree on the first part; talking heads follow the money. Big XII doesn't get to write the narrative, the B10 does. With Arizona to BigXII, FOX/B10 has additional leverage against UO/Wash to reduce their shares because of the impending PAC implosion. This whole thing is in flux...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Totally agree, the sequence of school moves lies in FOX's hands. Arizona to Big XII is next move. FOX/B10- Oregon/Wash dealings will decide the next round. For Big XII, I'm ok with any of these: -Arizona, stay at 14 -If UO/Wash to B10, then Arizona, ASU, Utah (16) -If UO/Wash is no to B10...

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    Wow, this is outstanding. Thanks for sharing. McMurphy knows what's really going on. The part about Oregon and Wash is really important. Big XII wants them, but has heard enough about their dealings with B10 to know those two schools are on the cusp of a B10 invite. Although Oregon and Wash...

    *** Official #14 IOWA STATE vs #2 Kansas Game(Day) Thread ***

    I know several Jayhawk fans, who despite being wonderful people most of the time, willfully turn a blind eye to the cheating. Their beloved Kansas can do no wrong. I hope they are forced to vacate the national championship. I hope Self is publicly humiliated. But more than anything, I hope...

    Gov. Abbott says Houston Is #11

    I agree with you, I could have made my point clearer....those votes are heavily influenced by the AD's, presidents, and big donors

    Gov. Abbott says Houston Is #11

    With the B12 coaches overwhelming voting for BYU, Houston, Cincinnati, and Memphis (only 2 other schools garnering a single vote a piece) those are your adds IMO. There's been too many behind the scenes negotiations for the AD's, univ. presidents, and big school donors not to have a say in...

    So Now Who is Your Starting 5?

    OP has it right: Morris Thomas Long Burton Holden Jackson and Bowie, are first off the pine and complete the 7 man big xii tight rotation. If either Malou or Lard make it, which I do think is not happening, we play 8.

    Off season want list.

    Agreed. I think we're both talking about a player like Edozie, with just enough offensive skill to earn more minutes than he did. We're talking about a player to come off the bench primarily for their defense and just not be an offensive liability. I love Hoiball, but I'm tired of the...
