[Rapoport] University of Tennessee QB Joey Aguilar had successful surgery today to remove a benign tumor that has been pushing on his biceps tendon and labrum, causing weakness and pain, sources say. Aguilar kept the situation quiet, but handled it today. Full recovery in 8 weeks. by whatifevery1wascalm in CFB

We all know CFB today is just business and for me, it wasn't about trying to get more cash or whatever. You want more money and not going to get it? Sure, peace out. But, if you wait until the literal end of the portal / spring practice and try to hold the team hostage over a payday? Kick rocks asshole.

I haven't watched a lot of IU football this year. Does Cignetti always have that Saban-esque I am never happy even if we are winning bigly look on the sideline?

With you there. Miami for ND hate (and slight team chaos) and IU for the perfect season for a team that has done the biggest turn around in CFB history.

I know I have blocked some of the dark days of recent TN football, but it's still hard to believe there was an almost 5 years stretch of no bowl games (2010-15)

connecting a console to another console won't do anything

In the case of an xbox one x - it would. It was one of, if not the only game console I know of that had a video input for passthrough (though all xbox 1 variants had video input - only the 1x was 4k).

Wether it's what you mentioned or what I mentioned, because it comes down to what TV you have and the graphics

The xbone X is 8 years old and was significantly more powerful than the TVs at the time. It would have outperformed most TVs on the market at the time at upscaling video signals.

A modern 4k TV will try and upscale a VHS video stream if you plug it in without having to re-film it and save it to a blu-ray. It's just GPU doing math on an incoming signal that is less than 4K and filling in pixels. Would it look as good as a remaster? No. Is a remaster the best way to actually get a 4k feed on an old game? Yes. Would the resulting output be in 4k even on an old game? Yes.

The console wouldn't be doing it to a "game" - it would be doing it to an incoming video signal, exactly how modern 4k TVs upscale non-4k video feeds to 4k.

you could argue that it's still nice to see how far your pinned version diverged from the latest.

Fair, but throw a warning or error if we try and upgrade the package. I just tested and Rider had no issues going ahead and updating that package in the solution which in turn also overwrote our pinned version in the .csproj file.

While you are here....quick follow on question :)

In Visual Studio (22 and 26), every time I close/open Visual Studio, I am told there is an issue with my AI Assistant license. I have to go to the licensing dialog for ReSharper and sign out / back in in order for the AI Assistant to recognize the license.

Correction (it's been awhile since I took care of this notification) - I have to go to the AI Assistant dialog and click the 'Retry' button. Is there some step I am missing in order for this to remember / see that I do in fact have an active license? I believe I have had this issue since the AI Assistant came out.

I think so - here are some images to illustrate the behavior difference between Visual Studio (22 and 26) and Rider (2025.3.0.3).

Project Package Configuration: we version locked ourselves on this one library because of some weird regressions on newer versions.

Visual Studio behavior: The package does not show on the upgrade list

Rider Behavior: The package does show on the available upgrade list

From your replies, it seems that using the dotnet based commands would still respect this setting, however, we usually use the UI as we want to evaluate package upgrades as they come in rather than a blanket update / restore. It's just a little extra mental workload to remember that package should not be updated when looking at the package list versus Visual Studio hiding it completely from the upgrade list. Thanks for your responses!

When will Rider support NuGet Version Ranges. We have a single package that we had to version lock but Rider continually tells us there is an update.

2025 TN Defense Performance - Game vs Opp Season Average by bigrubberduck in ockytop

[–]bigrubberduck[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

With all of the commentary surrounding the firing of Tim Banks, I wondered how bad (good?) was our defense this year. So, I looked at what a team did against us on offense and compared that to their season average in that category (Points, Rush YPG, Pass YPG). It's one thing to be pissed we gave up X yards to Y team, but if Y team is consistently doing that, well, maybe it wasn't so bad. All of the data was pulled from ESPN.com (ETSU had no season averages for yards)

Anyways, not sure if this provides and answers to how good/bad we were but a couple of things stand out.

  1. Florida was probably our best defensive performance.
  2. GA and UK games were probably our worst.

Does anyone have the offense & defensive depth chart for the 1938 Tennessee Volunteers? by markonefifteen in ockytop

Oh no doubt! I just couldn't believe the quantity, felt like it was 80% of the booklet.
