    It won’t happen, but how would you feel if Creighton wins the national championship?

    I'd be happy for him. He was a class person all around. I think McD's time at ISU was a learning experience and he has clearly been a better coach since he got to Creighton. He was also pretty snakebitten by injuries and weird player issues (wesley johnson, lucca staiger).

    All those bricks

    Honestly, before the season started I was really concerned about where the points would come from. We overperformed my expectations early on and through much of the season. In the end, I think the team performed about as well as my preseason expectations were.

    ***NCAA Wrestling: Session 3 (Fri., 11:00)***

    Sounds like you should have followed Cael.

    ***NCAA Wrestling: Session 2 (Thu., 6:00)***

    That sounds like a similar level of BS as currently exists with stalling, except you actually get to see people take shots instead of just sitting on a knee.

    ***NCAA Wrestling: Session 2 (Thu., 6:00)***

    I don't know if it is the quality of wrestlers or the rules, but international matches seem much more enjoyable to watch. The refs seem to really make the athletes be active.

    NBA: ***2022-2023 NBA season, post season, and offseason***

    Yeah, the other ref looking around in a confused way really makes me happy for some reason. He is clearly looking for something that warrants ejection and not finding it. Pure surprise.

    ***Big 12 Championships (Sat./Sun.)***

    Can you challenge the difference in riding time? Would be pretty funny watching a ref at the monitor rewatch an entire match

    ***Big 12 Championships (Sat./Sun.)***

    to my untrained eye, Bastida struggled with the other guy's height/length. Never seemed to be able to fight through the defense and he couldn't escape.

    ***Big 12 Championships (Sat./Sun.)***

    Can someone explain the scoring at the end of kraisser's match?

    ***Big 12 Championships (Sat./Sun.)***

    Is there any particular reason to have random draws at an end of season tournament? Seems strange and unnecessary by this point in the season.

    Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

    It's not a contradiction at all, though. "Nobody wants them" doesn't mean the teams aren't strong, just that you don't have the 1-2 schools in the conference that move the needle enough for the BIG or SEC to come calling. The Big 12 is third best conference because the quality of the league...

    Potential Measles Exposure

    Polio vaccine was created by Jonas Salk. Dude spent like 10 years attenuating the polio virus (i.e., purposefully breeding live virus to be less dangerous to humans) and tested it out on himself and his family first. Then, he gave up the rights to sell it and let everyone use it. National...

    Potential Measles Exposure

    Yeah, and everyone knew the dangers of smallpox to the point where we pretty much eradicated it in human populations for decades.

    Iowa State OU postgame video

    That was my worry heading into the year: we have streaky, inconsistent shooters. We shot relatively well to start the year, which was awesome. At this point, they've swung the other direction and I think we will end up about where I thought we would at the start of the year. Not a bad season...

    Alabama Basketball - Murder Investigation

    That seems fair. It is also fairly suspicious that Miller and the UA point guard were both on the scene in cars on opposite side of the street from the attack. Miller knew the two he delivered the weapon to had been drinking since he was with them until they went into club. Did Miller call...

    It was, just giving the UA policy now that I actually looked it up.

    Alabama Basketball - Murder Investigation

    Current Alabama policy: Brandon Miller is a Freshman who went to high school and lived in Tennessee, so unless his family purchased property in Tuscaloosa, he should have been living in university housing. Being an athlete is not on the list of factors considered for being granted an...

    Alabama Basketball - Murder Investigation

    I know ISU at one point required freshmen to live in dorms. I didn't think firearms of any kind were allowed in the dorms. I'm curious if Alabama has similar requirements.

    Alabama Basketball - Murder Investigation

    You're giving a drunk guy a gun to take to his girlfriend's place? That's also not the wisest decision.
