A staple of my youth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1XFD8hLRXg

No one else to blame here. Fran's teams always look completely shell-shocked against solid D. I guess that should be expected as I'm sure they don't face it in practice... Kudo's to MD. A lot of energy on D. Hustle, energy, active hands and feet. Credit to them.

LOL. I didn't mention Beach Baby, but I actually had a compilation album in 1974 that had both of those songs, and several other really good pop hits. I still listen to them. That was a really good year for that kind of feel-good music. Other songs on the album included "Hooked on a Feeling,"...

Not exactly a surprise. I've been hearing for some time that he was reassured early on that he would remain on the staff in some capacity. My personal take is that it would have been nice to bring in someone with actual WR experience, but, then again, there are numerous examples of very...

Full disclosure, I owned both when I was a kid, and still turn them up when either pops up on Sirius. How about this from the same time period? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15wq1Yg_Ac4

I'm not aware of how active Fran's staff is with camps, but both Lute and Mr. Davis were very active in the off-season when it came to youth camps. Over time, that can build a tremendous base. Not only does it get the kids into it, but by default the entire families get involved. Certainly not a...

Time will tell. Right now we have four true frosh in the rotation. Freeman has AA potential. Hopefully, he won't get lured out by a blue-blood with major NIL money. Again, time will tell, but I think Harding will be one of the better PGs we've had for awhile. He's got some serious quicks and...

PSU was physical with the ball carriers in terms of impeding movement, reaching in, etc., but they were also more athletic and played with purpose and high energy. Some coaches emphasize effort on D. Fran gives it occasional lip service but it's never been a priority and it shows, especially on...

I'm not even close to being a professional "wrestling" fan, but this made me smile: https://hawkeyeswire.usatoday.com/2024/02/07/wwe-champion-mankind-mick-foley-announces-ticket-purchase-iowa-womens-basketball-caitlin-clark-vs-indiana-hoosiers/

Interesting but disheartening take on Outkick: https://www.outkick.com/sports/caitlin-clark

I attached Whitlock's Blaze article earlier in the thread. Whether a reader is a fan of Whitlock or not, his analysis in drawing a parallel between Caitlin's experience last year and what happened with Tiger is very interesting. Isaiah Thomas's comments in regard to Larry Bird back in the day...

From what I have seen, I don't think most fans are upset at her transition comments. Those are 100% valid and reasonable points, and your points regarding comparing statistics across different eras are also reasonable. Comparing across generations will always generate debate but there really...

Really? Where?

Yes. I don't think people are seeing the big picture here. This would be a different squad if not for the gambling fiasco. In spite of that, Brands has been able to piece together a flawed but still very good team. And, yes, this meet was much closer than the score indicates. A few thoughts...

^^ This. RPO really has nothing to do with having a mobile QB, though certainly it's a plus if that threat exists. RPO means that the play has both options contingent on the pre-snap read. The tricky part is that it requires all of the involved players to make the read, so everyone has to be on...

I think read-option is what he was thinking about. A lot of people confuse the two.

After what transpired at the Soldier Salute, it's very questionable whether any Ferrari brother ends up here (I would say A.J. at this point is a definite no). Another unknown is what ultimately happens with the DCI investigation. If ruled unconstitutional, there will be a big legal push to...

Kudos to Perk and Sandfort. They weren't perfect, but played their hearts out tonight. Patrick and Krikke were huge liabilities, however. It's one thing if you aren't hitting your shot, but it's another when you fail at rebounding and defense, and effort plays.
