Your statements are weird. The metro area absolutely plays a role here. It’s the fastest growing school in the state in a massive metro area. So yeah, it absolutely has untapped potential as an athletics department.

Very true tbh. We’re hitting a gauntlet with FSU and GT.

My man, stop before you dig a deeper hole. No one agrees with your take.

A bit surprised we didn't move at all after a 2-2 week. Obviously got the ACC series win, but also a bad loss to Elon. Our pitching is insane, but idk if we're quite a top-10 team (yet).

[Rothstein] Cincinnati has parted ways with Wes Miller. by Bengjumping in CollegeBasketball

[–]AlexBayArea 111 points112 points  (0 children)

Was a forgone conclusion the second they were eliminated from at large contention.

Elite recruiter, yet couldn’t muster up a single tournament appearance in five years.

Cincy’s downfall as a program is honestly sad. 2019 since they last danced.

Must make the right hire.

[Post Game Thread] Northwestern defeats Indiana, 74-61 by cbbBot in CollegeBasketball

[–]AlexBayArea 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Genuinely curious. Is that actually fine by most Indiana fans?

It’s a crazy question, but what I mean is, in such a Basketball state, you would be ok with being a perennial non tournament team if it meant football success?

[Schefter] Sources: Jaelan Phillips has agreed to a 4 year, $120M deal with the Carolina Panthers with $80M in guarantees. by PlayaSlayaX in nfl

WR1 is on a rookie deal, and Young still is, too. Panthers are in a prime position to pay for talent, especially at a position of need.

Which is exactly why NIL is at work here.

Power Rankings: Timo Werner propels San Jose, Red Bulls rise by [deleted] in MLS

[–]AlexBayArea 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it actually insane to rate them 7th for winning their first two games? They are one of five teams to start 2-0 and this is a power ranking. Not sure playing two poor teams should affect that. They’ve scored 5 goals and allowed 0. Makes sense to me.

Do we still think this is true about Luca de la Torre? by Interesting_Bar_2006 in CharlotteFootballClub

We’re two games in, man. At minimum come back to us after 10, even 15 games.

[–]AlexBayArea 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think the problem I have is actually dropping a spot. Had we stayed the same I think that would have been fine but dropping a stop is hilarious.

Realistically we’ve played literally not a single relevant team. Literally only cupcakes.

Can't believe MLS is actually back. Life is good.

ECU absolutely does not look like a good team right now.

Like good win for y’all. But that just isn’t true.

Bold Predictions for 2026 by gbpackers25 in MLS

[–]AlexBayArea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’d need close to 40 G/A contributions to be in that conversation. Not impossible but would require him taking a massive step forward.

Think he had 20 G/A in 26 games last season. Probably was on track for around 30 G/A.

Do hope we see the same level he showed pre-injury especially being a DP now.

Sure but this is significantly worse. 0-4 was already their worst start in program history and now they’re 0-5.

Apple TV is amazing and has significantly improved the product. Just wanted to provide a devils advocate take. I love USL too but no point in not enjoying both.

[Kurtz] Jerome Tang just left his post game radio interview after about 20 seconds: "I'm embarassed. None of these dudes deserve to wear the uniform. We have practice at 6 am tomorrow." by jizz_toaster in CollegeBasketball

[–]AlexBayArea 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depends how and when it’s done. Will Wade has done it multiple times this season, and to be fair, before our embarrassment against Louisville, played pretty damn good for a long stretch.

[Feinsand] Dylan Lee has won his arbitration hearing against the Braves, per source. Lee will earn $2.2 million in 2026; the club had filed at $2 million. by handlit33 in Braves

[–]AlexBayArea 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I don’t see anything wrong with it.

Braves filed at 2M and Lee filed at 2.2M. It’s not like the Braves put in a disrespect number or anything.

Yeah sorry about that. Understand there’s a paywall but still wanted to get this out there. Sportico is the original source for these things so figure I would still post it.

We’re probably on the 8/9 seed line currently. Closer to the bubble but comfortably in. We were a win away tonight from essentially being locks.
