SEC is notorious for tons of FTs.

They may work the majority of SEC games or nearby to where they are based out of, but I have seen all those listed, numerous times work games in multiple conferences. There's no such thing as SEC basketball refs.

That's correct.  They're all Texas refs as far as I'm concerned.


At least that's the pejorative term all my old uncles used.

Quote from: DirkPiggler on Oct 28, 2025, 10:15 AMThis roster is better stocked than last year though.  Sealy isn't terrible and could play if needed.  Semedo is redshirting but could provide minutes in a pinch if we lost a big for an extended period (like last year with Aidoo).  Even the big Russian dude could come in with five fouls to give. 

Last year's injuries were damned near unprecedented.  You never say never, but it's unlikely that we get hit that hard again. 

50 points off the bench that game.  We are Nolan era deep.

watched some michigan st highlights against uconn on youtube. granted it was an exhibition and it was against the #4 team, but...

it's looks like they aren't near as fast and long as we are. not sure their big white guy at center will be able to stay in the game without getting a lot of fouls. i feel like it will come down to how well the freshman handle the environment.

Kentucky has a 22mm payroll.

It's going to suck for them when we win it all.

Especially with Cal at the helm.  They're going to be pissed if he wins more at UA than UK, and I think he will.

I want him to win two natties here, just to get one more than he got Kentucky.

Cal and us live rent free in their heads, despite them supposedly glad to see him go. Never quite seen a fanbase become this level crazy ex-girlfriend.

I've got a conflict and can't make it up to the game this evening. Was gonna sell them but decided I'll give them away tonight if anyone is interested. Have 3 together in Sec 101. DM me if you're interested.

Very nice of you.  Hope someone takes them and yells their heads off.  I would take a couple of grand kids if I lived up that way.

Kentucky fans are so scared of this, hence the 22 million.  They know they downgraded at HC significantly.  They aren't THAT stupid.

It has been spoken, so shall it be done.

Pretty sure the $22mm is nonsense.

There's a timestamp at 24:30 to jump to the Arkansas part.
The Lord wants you to put your foot on their balls and believe in it. 'Cuz that's what wins football games. Not jumping offsides like a bunch of wimps and faggots. I don't care what those pinkos over in Russia say. You want to be a loser? You go live in Russia. I'm a winner. I'm an American.

The guys from Field of 68 have commented on it several times. They were correct on NIL numbers for guys like Dybantsa. Now some of that money may extend out more than a year for some guys.

There's something to the dynamics of overpaying players relative to others that Cal mentioned

If we brought Boogie back at $7M and Acuff/Thomas at lower levels how does that translate into hierarchy and playing time?

How much resentment does it create?

I think Cal seems to be navigating this well, based on this year's team

If this is even close to being right, why go pro?
