Well probably someone said look you aren't helping MU, it's an exhibition game. You're helping people who have lost everything.

Many were all for “never again” but for hurricane benefit they can put that aside. Plus it won’t count for the season sooooo we can convince ourselves we don’t really help them out. We help out charity. A chance to beat the poo poo out of MU with no benefit to their school.

That is how they'll sell it and just writing it sold myself on it.

Keeping in mind though that Cal wants the one and done rule to go away. Most coaches do.

As long as you have regular students also get easy As.

Not that I'm throwing stones considering my school has basically a mansion to house the basketball players but lets a couple randos stay there to offset it.

My last class in college was a Racism In Media class and we just sat around watching movies and listening to the professor bitch about how he didn't get tenure because of the racist hierarchy.

He looked white as gently caress to me but I guess he was part Filipino.

Sorry Florida and LSU...

Five-star recruit Emmitt Williams, 19, was arrested and charged with felony sexual battery and false imprisonment early Wednesday morning.

Williams, who is a top 25 prospect in the 2018 recruiting class, was booked at 12:40 a.m. by the Orlando police department and held on $3,500 bond. He is a senior at Oak Ridge High School in Orlando. He is scheduled to make an appearance in court this afternoon.

Williams visited LSU last weekend and was scheduled to visit Florida this weekend.

Zion eliminated UCLA.

I'm not saying this is the reason, but this is the temperature here today.








Also Clemson fans are real confident he's going there.


Clemson?? Okayyyyy

kiimo
Jul 24, 2003

He's from South Carolina. So I guess USC and Clemson fans think it's a race between them.

I mean it's like they aren't even competing against KU, UK, UNC and Duke. All of which are also recruiting Zion.

KU would be forced to play MU by law if they were in the same state like UK and UL. UK wouldn't play Louisville either if they weren't forced to because it makes sense to do what is in the best interest of your program for recruiting and for footprint for out of conference games. There are only so many of them.

Personally I think we should play them because its fun but I don't really hold grudges. MU fans will say it's because Self is a chicken but that's really because there's no other argument that works. It definitely benefits MU to play Kansas and why should Kansas do them a favor at their own expense? Kindness?

If anyone outside of KC is confused by this I don't blame you. You kind of have to be from KC to understand the constant game of thrones going on between KU, MU and K-State.

Wichita State doesn't loving matter. gently caress those guys.

Bill would mandate rivalry games between Kentucky and Louisville
Herald-Leader Staff Report

A Louisville lawmaker has filed legislation that would require the University of Kentucky and University of Louisville to play each other in football and men's basketball each year.

The proposal, filed Tuesday by state Sen. Tim Shaughnessy, deals mostly with the responsibilities of university governing boards and tracking student progress. But the last page of the four-page bill would require the two schools to face each other on the football field and basketball court annually.

The proposal, which now goes to the Senate Education Committee, says that national attention brought by the rivalry benefits the state and the universities, which get the opportunity to "inform the nation of their institutional contributions to the economic and social well-being of the Commonwealth and nation."

Also, "the thousands of Kentuckians who support the two public research universities and follow their respective athletic endeavors benefit from the energy, excitement, camaraderie, goodwill, and sportsmanship that the rivalry engenders," the bill declares.


Did this not go through?

Also a bill was introduced to force Texas and aTm to play each other. I wonder if that went through.

Former KU player Carlton Bragg (the guy accused of hitting a girl until video showed him getting hit and then later caught up in that investigation where an unused drug pipe was found in his room) has left ASU.

Someone make a GDT for all of us to whine in. I would but I've sworn off starting them because the last time I did it was that godawful Butler/UConn final.

Do it!

Cuz Kentucky is currently losing to UTAH VALLEY
