From what I have heard 2 players were late and were asked to leave. Don’t know the names.

Being an athlete previously, if my team would ever come close to a record like 1-11, we would never be late. We would be living in the gym and training facilities. Some of todays athletes are just different

If you're early, you're on time.
If you're on time, you're late.
If you're late, don't even bother showing up.

If we are competitive, go 6-6 on average with an occasional upset of an elite program, and then have a good year every 3 or 4 years where we do better I’m happy.

Happy with 6-6? I disagree.
We should be on the same level with WI and Iowa, pushing for 10 win seasons, sniping 1 or 2 of the big 5, competing for a championship and playoff spot every few years.

Painters shown the willingness to go to the portal. He also probably knows exactly what he needs to have another FF team. Maybe he thinks he has that.
What i'm saying, is that if he thinks there's a position or two where he can upgrade, he should.

nothing wrong with that if the upgrade is large enough to warrant an unknown person outside the actual skills. Not sure what the guard coming in brings...I think maybe well rounded good athlete????? Cox and Harris will make a jump and Burgess will improve as well. Plenty of time to let the hands be played out.

The Largest Immigration Surge in U.S. History

Q
Gift article NY Times. Selected quotes:

“1. The immigration surge since 2021 has been the largest in U.S. history, surpassing even the levels of the late 1800s and early 1900s. Total net migration — the number of people coming to the country minus the number leaving — will likely exceed eight million people over the past four years, government statistics suggest. That number includes both legal and illegal immigration.”

“4. President Biden’s welcoming immigration policy has been the main reason for the recent surge. During his 2020 campaign, Biden encouraged more people to come to the U.S., and he loosened several policies after taking office.”

Yeah and that started at the top. I think CRW tried too hard to be their "friend" and not their coach.. something he will learn.... elsewhere.

Heard some of the assistants were less dedicated and professional than high school coaches. Some of the stories (if true) would result in immediate termination in any profession.

Let's be honest. The NCAA didn't create this mess because they don't have the power to control it.

The reality is....money controls everything. Take away the endorsement deals, spending power of such schools, which in return make the NCAA nothing but a title of an organization that controls nothing.

Take away the money, schools and lastly the athlete, and the NCAA has nothing.

The courts have taken a lot away from the NCAA. Once NIL became a thing, the courts just keep giving the NCAA the middle finger over everything. Like punishment for not paying them beforehand.

Whether the Catchings conversation happened or not (it did, Painter says in the interview below that KC was concerned about his role and then came back the next day and said 'everything was good'), Painter has spoken many times about recruits asking about roles and playing time and how he approaches it differently than many other coaches. No one here is obligated to believe Painter but the tape is out there on his views.

Kids are asking for minutes/snaps guarantees to be written into their NIL deals now. This is common knowledge.

I did not say that. Point to where I did.

I do not know what Israel will do when Trump is in office, but I am confident that if there is a type of bomb they need to destroy those underground nuclear facilities and they are not getting it now from the US, they will get it from Trump.

The shameful Biden policy of appeasing Iran is just about over. Winston would have been appalled at that policy.
