Sixth year, fourth school.

She looked like a very good coach when she had Laysia Clarendon at Cal too. Not so much when Clarendon graduated.

1. A convincing win 2. fewer than 10 turnovers committed, more than 20 turnovers forced 3. I need to find some Irish sausage to make bangers and mash

Other teams should be very very afraid. Two and a half more years of Sarah getting better and better.

Some time ago, probably the 80's or early 90's, I saw an article about the "Pizza Triangle": Hartford to the north, New London to the east, and New Haven (or maybe Bridgeport) to the west. Having grown up in the middle of that, it made sense to me. My little hometown of 8000 souls had a...

Oh, yeah, the stealth mask is badass.

They just got caught. They may be worse than other schools, but knowing people who have taught at schools with big-time sports teams, that sort of thing happens/has happened a lot.

I found this really cool. KK actually DOES have more than one speed. 😁

I wonder if nobody wanted/could to do a home-and-home, so they opted for a one-off at a neutral site?

Oh, damn, I hate agreeing with Muffet. But I do. I thought making an 18-year-old sit out for a year for an unfortunate decision she made when she was 16 or 17 was unfair. But kids are doing four years at four schools willy-nilly now. I think that’s bad for their development as players, human...

I’ve said in a couple of threads, Iowa State may just not be that good without Addy Brown. Another example this evening.

I assume the transfer window for D1 football is something like sophomore year in high school till a month into bowl season?
