I bet his knee is fine, he was just sloughing off. He'll make it to the NBA eventually. He's a badass when he wants to be.

Not sure that is the effort nor mentality NBA GM's are looking for.

Yeah, enjoy Europe and whatever they call the D league now. Better work on upper body strength.

Quote from: hit_that_line on Apr 08, 2024, 10:21 AMI can't wait to hang out with Cal at Oaklawn. We're so fucking back.

I've never in my life seen a grown ass man try so fucking hard.


Show-Me Hog

I suppose Brazile's decision has something to do with fear of competing with front court five stars that Cal might bring. Riding the pine for most of a season will not boost the stock. Might as well strike while the iron is lukewarm.

He's got a clean slate to add some pieces together. I don't think Cal will be bashful about telling the portal Hogs to keep on truckin elsewhere. Maybe he can get Blocker back if that's someone he's recruited before.

With the transfer rules being what they are it's going to be interesting if Cal brings a lot of his team with him to include staff, high school signees, and a few portal guys. You almost have to anticipate that's going to happen. In the olden days that would have been sure enough tampering but now it's expected.

Muss is bringing the UMASS transfer with him but I haven't seen where Battle, Mark or anyone else has been invited to the party.

Quote from: HughJasole on Apr 08, 2024, 10:59 AMAll based on that one Danyelle tweet where she said someone at school had asked Mariah about the rumors. The Musselmans intentionally put that out there to create a narrative where mean old Arkansas fans were trying to run them off and would stoop to talking shit about Eric to his daughter.

I doubt anyone even asked Mariah anything; they probably made it up and knew it would spread like wildfire on social media.

No adult asked her about it.  Kids maybe.  They have no filter.

I just don't see a junior high kid talking shit to her about Eric. He was almost universally adored here until this season.

It wasn't like a Nutt situation (I went to school with all of HDN's kids) where people were routinely talking shit to them about their dad, and for good reason.

Some of the talking heads were saying part of the problem that's lead to Cal wanting to leave (and perhaps some of the lackluster tournament play as well) is that the money for assistants hasn't been there in recent years and has resulted in a direct decline in development and on the court performance.

If that's true then Cal needs to ease off a couple mil and take care of his assistants.

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Once authored a post that critics claimed, "Was notaslibro level."

My oldest granddaughter went to the same school and was in the same class as the Musselman girl.  She said Mariah is "not very nice."
Apparently retarded member of the "fucking old people" crowd as defined by Swahili Steve.

Surely we can't screw this up this badly

Of course we can. Who do you think we are?
Well, shit...

You'd just have to laugh.  We maybe would never recover, which would be sad, but all we'd be able to do is laugh.
