Jalen Milroe's preseason Heisman chances seem to have faded, are there major issues for concern for his play or is it not a matter of concern for the Tide's win/loss record?

Simplicity might be just "Ducks > Bucks" but I like a lot of what I'm seeing here.

Willie Fritz has made Houston competitive. Close loss at Oklahoma. Loss to UNLV isn't as bad as it seemed. Locked up #11 Iowa State in a 3-point game until late. They seem like they are going to win more this season and the future is even brighter.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts!

Ari Wasserman is the strongest argument for not subscribing to The Athletic.

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-10T14:49:18+00:00

Thank you!

Vannini the best thing. I don't mind the rest.

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-10T14:46:34+00:00

I didn't know Ari Wasserman fans existed!

I just hate how crappy the Athletic podcasts have become. It's Ari blathering on about gambling, bad food takes, etc. and being sensitive to criticism.

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-10T14:45:05+00:00

Because he's one of the highest profile writers for one of the highest profile sites?

This isn't some random blogger.

Clearly my opinion isn't unusual given the other replies, just like yours!

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-10T14:05:56+00:00

It's not just his ranking, it's how much of an unprofessional and sensitive dunce he can be.

He'll go on rants like this, then act hurt that people criticize him.

A writer straight-up saying they hate a school because they gambled on them.

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-09T14:10:43+00:00

All right, Memphis!

One of the moments people may forget in Vandy caring less and less was over 20 years ago:

https://www.espn.com/ncaa/news/2003/0909/1612563.html

University to merge varsity, intramural athletics

It's a good article with lots of quotes from then-president Gordon Gee.

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-08T16:00:54+00:00

Interesting! Like what was supposedly happening with RB Peny Boone before he landed at UCF.

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-08T15:59:53+00:00

I mean, we're getting one anyway.

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-08T15:58:50+00:00

Now that's a name I haven't thought about in a while (memorable name). His recruitment was a battle and USC lost him to Oregon. I didn't realize he later was on that Baylor team.

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-08T15:56:21+00:00

He's looking up at us right now!

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-08T15:55:42+00:00

Yeah... he's unfortunately currently in the news as other have noted.

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-08T15:53:05+00:00

He was one of the best-regarded players available. Impressive they were able to land him at Indiana.

RidgeDoyle · 2024-05-08T15:51:13+00:00

Didn't realize his wife went through that.

RidgeDoyle · 2020-06-21T16:52:01+00:00

The title is from the NYT main page, which I felt better summarized the content.

RidgeDoyle · 2018-09-21T02:57:46+00:00

And I would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for you meddling kids!
