The lay-up line is no joke…better have your head on a swivel. only a matter of time before a player gets shived while working on free throws pre-game.

Now comes the hard part…the revenue distribution among conferences.

Is Kenny Baker waiting for Texas to activate Andre Coleman’s flip phone in order to speak with B.Brown?

Well, here’s my list of things to complain about following the first half against WVU: 1. ???

I too sport a football player’s pinky, though mine is more similar to Booger McFarland’s than Chris Simms. Back in the day, the football trainer would simply pop the dislocated pinky back in place, and send you back on the field (after I writhed in pain for a few minutes), with not much consideration of the long-term damage and arthritis. For me, I dislocated my right pinky six times over the course of two seasons. 30 years later and my right pinky is more hindrance than helpful to me.

Ryan Day grew up as a QB in Chip’s offense at UNH, so it’s an easy fit here for tOSU.

Ryan Day was Chip Kelly’s QB at the University of New Hampshire.

I’ve been to several SEC stadiums, but I am actually most excited about visiting the ones that I’ve not been to yet (and are a bit off the beaten path). I’ve been to Ark, aggy, LSU, Ole Miss, Bama, Tenn, UGA, and Mizzou. So, I’m looking forward to Kentucky, So Carolina, and Auburn.

Gerry, do you have a sense of the pecking order at Offensive Tackle (behind Fasusi), especially now that the Bridgeland kid is off the board? Are there any out of state OT that we should realistically be monitoring? Thanks for all you do.

9 games left in regular season conference, then the B12 tourney. Beat ISU on Tuesday and that’s wins against five Quad 1 wins, four of those against ranked teams, and two of three of those on the road. My goal is to see us go 9-9 in conference (20-11 overall), and remain in the KenPom top 25-35. That’ll make the Big Dance.

The Longhorns football franchise, sponsored by the University of Texas. In addition to the foundational business model, I’m anxious to see what the new talent acquisition model will be for the new league. Will we still have recruiting, or will it be replaced by a draft? Assuming we go to a model of revenue sharing between the big two leagues, and collectively bargained revenue sharing between players and schools, the next question is how do the schools distribute the football talent (players) to achieve an equitable / parity approach to the new competitive balance? TV partners aren’t paying billions of dollars to have certain schools in key TV markets completely tune-out because their favorite college franchise can’t attract the talent necessary to win any football games. There’s no point in TV partners investing billions in this new model if certain franchises (Minnesota, Iowa, et al) don’t have an opportunity to stay within 50 points of the opponent (Bama, UGa, LSU, Texas) every Saturday. The TV partners will want all TV markets to have some competitive balance, which means the talent (players) will need to be distributed in some equitable way across the franchises. The lack of equitable resource distribution is a major reason we have the problems in college football that we have today. The current reality is that maybe 10-15 schools can win a championship, and particularly so as we move toward a 12-team playoff (there won’t be any TCUs making the championship game going forward in the 12-team landscape). And without some sort of mechanism to more equitably distribute the resources (players), you’ll simply have the same small handful of teams winning the championships every year - and they’ll all be concentrated in a small number of states across the country (Texas, Florida, Georgia, Bama, Louisiana, Ohio, and occasionally Michigan). That’s a very small number of TV viewers relative to the entire country, so if the goal is growing the sport of college football a la the NFL, you need a talent model that fosters a competitive balance across all 48 or 64 schools. A draft?

Lots of history with PK
