    Second Four Star Recruit Badara Diakite Decommits

    I don't know about drop of a hat. Could have dropped him earlier than this year and wow did he look like a dead man walking much of the year. Plus if that is your guy you gotta go. You can't tell coach X to wait till the end of a contract and you don't hold onto a coach if it is time cause you...

    Second Four Star Recruit Badara Diakite Decommits

    Earlier before with this team of which much was expected they were 7-7 during a 14 game stretch. Then they had a good run then they have that sad loss to Richmond. That up and down is certainly the rut over the Fran tenure. Don't just pick out the good stuff then question why the apathy or why...

    Freeman commits

    Look at the effect already on the tourney. Outside of SJU having two top players crap the bed against Arkansas all we have left now is 1's and 2's. So much for March Madness. Cinderella is dead.

    Second Four Star Recruit Badara Diakite Decommits

    Think it was certainly time. Don't think there will be much difference in win total next year. Not like Fran would win 25 and now we will win 11 games. Probably be within 5 games and think it won't be a losing season. Fran might have hit 20 but the apathy and game or two we shouldn't lose or...

    Second Four Star Recruit Badara Diakite Decommits

    Really. Even Fran at his best had his foibles and we would see the unexpected loss or two that hurt, the up and down play, lack of solid "D", perhaps a blowup or anger scene and head scratching subbing. What would he have done at that point with him looking checked out with a supposed good...

    Iowa Program is bottoming out

    Sticking around longer and also having BTT and 20 games season just adds up. Davis is just the better coach. Fran's teams up and down play, sub issues and lack of "D" and not going as far as you might think and losing to more teams than they should have. Fran is good and rated about right. Still...

    Trump supporters, how do you square this?

    That is starting talks with the instigator which is what you do. You don't approach the victim side first. Initial talking and seeing where they are you are turning it into, just like the media, into that is the deal. There is no deal they haven't even gotten them both together for talks. There...

    Trump supporters, how do you square this?

    They bash everything if Trump does it. The cuts with an outside appointee. JFK and TDR did the same thing. Obama bashed USAID as have plenty of democrats. Calls to eliminate the DOE for years. None of this is new or controversial except they have to bash Trump. How about chipping in with ideas...

    Iowa Program is bottoming out

    Didn't you live it? :) It should always be in the back of the mind. Of course 2022 ended with Richmond. It was really only fleeting, as usual, since they were 12-8 regular season BT. The ups and downs. That team struggle more than it seemed it should then they put it together. 12-2 before that...

    Trump supporters, how do you square this?

    Worthless when they are not enforced. Biden weakness was not enforcing sanctions, not checking to see if your charging stations are being made and other executive orders were being carried out. Again... look there were sanctions(I didn't say or mean to say there weren't any) but not the whole...

    Charred duck thread funner (more fun)

    A trademark of Fran guards who can drive. Those who can't have not shown it but from Toussaint to even one of his sons have all ended up with that habit. If he had more quick athletic guards we would have seen it more but it has been a pet peeve of mine for years. So what was with the title of...

    Trump supporters, how do you square this?

    Biden was so weak with giving China everything they wanted. Russia was able to go to war and had no sanctions enforced to try even to deter them and a nice influx of oil money thanks to Biden. Iran got billions freed up to use for nice stuff like funding their terrorist proxies. You should wise...

    Becky Hammon as coach?

    She can coach but can she recruit in men's and work the NIL?? Transfers ? I don't see that working with her experience in those areas nor as a gimmick.

    Trump supporters, how do you square this?

    Like 75% or more Ukranian's believe his is corrupt and it sure looks like he is. Not a far stretch to say if there would be problems with the elections and of course if he isn't willing to end the conflict and is being a dick right now cause he sees his end coming. Holding onto power even if...

    It is in their constitution or whatever no elections during war. He is following existing rules. He might not be looking forward to them when they resume but I guess his approval rating is still above 50%.

    Trump supporters, how do you square this?

    And what if he gets it stopped. Say whatever but stop the people dying. Biden admin lollygagged and this was their new forever war after leaving Afghanistan. No peace table, only helping Ukraine only so much while at the same time not enforcing stuff against Russia that would hurt them. Both are...

    Trump supporters, how do you square this?

    Was he one of the ones that was gonna be fired? I don't put much into the "resigning" ahead of a firing and trying to make Trump look bad. I mean it is the better plan. Pay a bunch more money and try Adams or save our money hold it over him, because the charges can be revisited they are not...

    Trump supporters, how do you square this?

    Again you are misleading. What are most of the things they are looking to cut from USAID? DEI for the Serbian workplace, money to politico and other media and other stuff. There is a freeze. They say not all aid is being cut. If they pause it and go over stuff and weed out any abuse or fraud or...

    Like your post about the agreements come to before with the Biden administration. Agreements were reached but the stuff isn't getting done. Then Trump has to use the tariffs to force them to actually do it. Fact is Canada wasn't doing what they agreed to. Facts are what is really going on. Terms...

    Like your comments are not biased. You have to to get your info. I suppose everyone not on your "side" can ever talk common sense or have a good idea or contribute. A solid explanation of it is just that. Doesn't matter where it comes from. Saying what the goals are, how it will work out either...
