Surprised Syd is a physics professor, what with all the transfers and such. Just goes to show I guess, you never know.

You might have suggested that hus interest in physics was inspired by s comment that his finest Jelly Fam moves "defied gravity."
 
5 bid conference should be the expectation: Nova, UConn, SJU, Seton Hall, Xavier. Maybe a 6th in Providence or Butler can sneak in too.

I won’t to be the left fielder for the Red Sox and lead them to the pennant. But that ain’t happening either.

Richie Springs is 6’9”, third year here, and pretty freakin talented. And…he’ll struggle to get minutes.

We’re loaded. Top to bottom. Loaded.

Curious about the basis for your evaluation on Springs. We have seen so few minutes from him (13 total) that I still don't know how talented he is.

Which in and of itself is an indicator. On the other hand think about Whaley.
 
Fanta was lucky FS1 was looking for cheap content and was fine with letting the league use their digital network guy on the actual TV.

ESPN would've never put a Fanta-type on the air.

What is he, a SHU student?

John Fanta has done play by play on ESPN before, so it appears they would

Wow... When was this?

Fanta did "play by play" on ESPN? How did that sound?
Expand ...
I didn't watch but he's done G League games for ESPN earlier this year. I'd imagine he was great because he's been fantastic on FS1 doing basketball

It appears Fanta was an Intern on FS1 until August 2016. He finally got his SHU undergraduate degree in 2017 (I thought he was still attending)

I don't see any ESPN experience. I'm not sure they'd go for an on-air talent with his appearance.

You can keep doubling down, but you're wrong

Personally, I don't mind Fanta on broadcasts. Sometimes he'll go off on weird Fanta-isms but generally, he does a good job.
