You want experience? Cheap is as cheap does.

It is the son of Sam. Been raking in major offers for a while now.

Guy in our dorm was the bass player in a band. His room was configured like a sound studio - had the best sets of speakers and amps of anyone by far. Professional. Well, he'd practice at night, in his room, volume up, every room shaking to the bass line of Rock 'n Roll Hoochie Koo. I can still...

Please stop with the Joey C comparisons. The only thing the same about these two bench players is their three point percentage. Joey was 6'3". A regular and flashy performer, he could get his shot off quickly vs. anyone, shoot on the move and finish. He played 14.5 mpg for us and was used...

The worst of it was the months of pent up anxiety re: what would be available. There were so many seats taken by school folks and other VIPs it just added to the fear. In the end, our XL seats were equivalent and GP, close enough. From guys I’ve spoken to, those with questionably...

Always fun, thanks, @navery12.

Do you remember how you felt when TNewton announced the return for his super-senior season? Alex's announcement feels thrillingly similar. At that time I firmly felt Newton was exactly what we needed to repeat. A returning and dominant PG much less one from a championship team is the most...

My error. Knight's money was largely donations beyond the NIL collective. He has spent upwards of 2 billion for Oregon. Still, the school, not necessarily players directly, enjoy his support like none other.

It's comforting to see Benedict playing ahead and with clear vision of the current and future revenue landscape while overseeing an incredibly successful athletic division over his tenure. Hovering above, however, are the clouds about which he can only do so much to dissipate and reveal us in...

Right, Buff. The number of fouls due to using the hedge were mostly due to lack of defensive understanding by the guys across the back line, not directly Johnson nor Reed. So, triggered, 00? In a way. They have to constantly watch the hedger, look out for creepers down low and keep an eye...

The hedge is a great weapon. I saw Samson improve greatly over the years on the high hedge. With length, speed and athleticism he is a prototype hedger. Still, it takes a village. Guys on the back have to find their own man, creepers and keep their eye in where the hedger is and what he’s...

Is it dearth of penetration leading to low FT opportunities, lack of on-ball defense beyond a hobbled Diarra, freshman influence beyond Liam, playing at a fast pace? All reasonable holes needing fresh soil. Inability to pass the ball inbounds was tops for me, infuriation-wise. Giving away late...

Azzi's light came on and we saw the emergence of greatness. Unbridled from injury and a secondary three point shooting role, she has exploded in effect. She will be a first team AA next season. Her shooting skill, when combined with superior quickness of hand, strength and speed will catapult...

When I first saw Paige as a freshman, I saw a young lady with amazing talent and an incredible love for the game that I felt would be contagious in the best of ways. The setbacks along the way, while debilitating and frustrating, have contributed to her growth as a person and player and it has...
