Where Loyer could dip I suppose is endgame situations if the following two things are true:

Mayer provides close enough offense to Loyer
Mayer provides better defense than Loyer

So just like Loyer sat out the final play this season bc it was a defensive possession, in a close game at the end, Painter might roll with Mayer IF he thinks Mayer provides similar scoring and better defense for that last say minute or so of play as opposed to trying to finagle offensive defensive subs on the fly.

If course I don't know anything about Mayer on defense. That's the real question mark on when and how much he plays. Obviously he's going to get minutes but if his defense isn't any better than Loyer then Painter isn't playing him over Loyer and he's probably not pulling out Cox in last minute situations where he needs defense.

Those are the pros and cons of a free and open market.
That's why there were laws put in place to control Monopolies.

That could be like someone living in Gary and someone living in Valpo and asking them same question about crime in their neighborhood. They're very close in proximity but vastly different living experience.

I saw this article pop up on ESPN, and expected almost exactly what was said, but still feel like they’re wrong. Especially considering with how lenient they were with some of the other teams. I seem to remember everybody talking about how Purdue wouldn’t be the same without Eddy and how Smith was going to be exposed. What are you all’s thoughts?

Rutgers' star duo fell short of expectations while Wisconsin's John Tonje helped the Badgers surpass theirs.

I see rivals still hasn't update the schedule to 2025 yet. Or is that a pay feature?

Anyhoo, here's my best guess for the first half of the season:

Ball State - Noon
ISU - Noon
USC - gets moved to a Friday night 7:30 game
Illinois - 3:30

After that, records of the matchups will determine.

I don’t know. The country is not that large. Therefore, these South African whites will still know what is going on. Some may know some of the farmers.

With the exception of energy cost, gasoline, and some food products, once prices increase they they will not go down.
There are exceptions like incentives on vehicles.

Good call on the golf teams, especially women. Can't believe I forgot about them. They won the 2010 National Championship!

And some of the more individualized Olympic sports have sometimes been nationally competitive, especially divers.

Dude your article supports what I’ve been saying. The article states that prices are increasing but at a slower rate. The bottom line is that they ain’t going down. The article goes on to say that the tariffs are creating uncertainty in the economy.

I think that Loyer could dip if Mayer is as good as he looks in the video I have watched. We’ll find out soon enough.
