    What's sad for me is that the relative I went to visit up there every time we played them passed away early this year and didn't get to go last year to see her. We have definitely been with them a long time ...... but hey, we may be getting uab back, baby!

    Sorry for your loss, I have found that when I have an event, or events that I associate with a person, when they go or cannot attend, I prefer not to do the event. Its just easier for me to not to the event, I move on.

    Milton looked incredible…I would have never thought that in a million years.

    His mother once told me that says after the injury, he told her that he intended to play again. She said that she was horrified by the thought and asked him if he truly believed that. his answer, Of course I do, if I don't believe it why will anyone else believe it, I have to believe it first.

    Thanks Foot for the serious reply minus the snideness this board has developed a reputation for.

    I can’t imagine any program not seeing a surge in revenue in years their football team has successes.  I would be more interested in seeing program numbers in years teams are lackluster.  This would be a better metric for long term success for inviting a team into a conference in my mind considering there is only one winner of it all each year.

    Thanks, I am not bright enough or a witty enough writer ti be snide, Trip still thinks that I am a sleeper cell.

    My research is over for the night. I get up at 4:45 each day, get our 3 Dalmatians up, get them out, feed them, have some play time, put them back to bed so I can attend a 6:00 Cross fit class ( at stinking 62!), home by 7:10, get them back up, out for another walk, back home, shower, to work to run a healthcare business and everything Covid Variant, by 9:00. LIkr she said in Blazing Saddkes, "I'm so tired"!

    Thanks for the serious reply B-  is there then objective evidence of UCF generating more ‘money and TV viewership’ or is conjecture?

    Pac-12-Expansion.png

    We were proud to have our work referenced in Jon Wilner’s Mercury News article, “If the Pac-12 were to expand, one school stands as the clear No. 1 pick.” For those who...

    Why Houston maynhave been the likely choice is the Pac was expanding:

    The conference is expected to announce this week that it will not expand. But in an alternate universe, where it must add teams, one option stands above the rest:...

     

     

  6. Pure and simple, in my opinion, Nebraska is trying to find  just cause to not pay him his buy out. BTW, each assistant coach has a clause, that if the HC is released, they are as well, immediately. 

    The previous AD paid Scott way too much on an un called for ( way early) renewal, thus he is gone. The mud slinging has begun. 

     

    Again, just one old mans opinion.
