Don't forget PEI*. It's the only place other than Maine with recorded instances of the expression, “Bouncing around like a fa rt in a mitten.”Now if you want some interesting sayings, I'd suggest taking a trip out to the East Coast. Between New Brunswick and Newfoundland, you'll probably get enough to fill a couple books, provided you can understand the accents.
SEC is the toughest conference and they won’t be contenders overnight going up against programs like Texas, South Carolina and LSU. They needed post depth and ADR could be a good fit given on who was left in the portal and they need size. They also need a PG.
I'm not a fan of BBQ or peaches.
Players are not on the bandwagon......so that is not a relevant statement. You think the Tennessee fans like Nico now???? No, they do not. Leave the program and go to the mortal enemy will do that.
That's not good enough, sorry.
That sounds about right, though I doubt she’ll be able to give Shea many minutes given her rehab and generally poor conditioning.
What's going on with her physically? I read in another thread that injury problems have held her back.
Nope! They've finally seen the light and now realize what we all knew--that he's not very good at all.
She's had a couple of ankle injuries. I'm not sure if that's what has held her back or not but she adds height and depth to Vandy. Her size will help going up against bigs like Kyla Oldacre and Kate Koval if 6-2 Sacha Washington is too undersized for certain matchups.
Skim Milkey normally doesn’t post something unless he feels there is some merit. However I still take these type of stories with a grain of salt. Further you could swap a lot of names and colleges in this story. One story on M Okot is she had an agreement with Mississippi State and an agent got in contact with her family and convinced her to enter the portal unless she got substantially more money.
I can’t remember the details, but there are legal ways for foreign players to get some type of NIL.
Yep, she’s good and tough.
Possibly, but she would fit in unbelievably well at Vandy. She'd be their starting PG the next 3 years and Vandy would be well positioned to make a deep tournament run in each season.
Maybe, but it's not likely to be an SEC team. Every team in the SEC had a chance to bring her in (or, in LSU's case, retain her). Only one bit and wound up in a one-team bidding war for her services (an unbelievably shortsighted move by Vanderbilt).
Gotcha. I see now the X screenshot was from Burner Ball and obviously should not have been shared publicly without permission. I don’t understand why people do that.
Instant gratification from gaining some "clout" for breaking the news first, sadly.
Tell all your business…and the business of others is the new thing. I don’t get it. My daughter sent me a link to join a group so she would know where I was by tracking my phone. lol. Um…no. DENIED.
Yes. After today, players can still enter the portal if they complete their undergraduate degree prior to the start of a new academic year, and still have eligibility. In addition, I believe there is an exception if a HC leaves prior to the season. Other than that, as of today, the portal is closed to new additions.
My understanding was that athletes could enter the portal, after the deadline, but would be required to sit out the season.
Yes, but that would be unusual.
In the convoluted world of the NCAA, Occam's Razor has a very dull blade. “Complexities are preferred to simplicity.”
