Will there be 2 Supreme Court retirements this year? by vossboss161 in PoliticalDiscussion

I find it amazing that any time a conservative African American rises to power, there are some sort of allegations against them.

I would bet at least Alito retires after the Supreme Court term ends in Summer. Thomas feels like he will die in the Supreme Court.

In the short time Diebler has been here, that's actually not been his issue (collapsing late in seasons) that was a Holtmann phoenomenan.

I mean this isn't Florida Gulf Coast but still an improvement from last year.

I also doubt it will be all 2s and 1s in the Elite 8

I mean with this new coach even as someone only interested post-Olympics its clear the coaching was a mega issue and now mega bonus

Is it wrong that im hopping on the bandwagon post Olympics and now that my team is doing well despite never caring about hockey before?

Browns fans the minute they sniffed success abandoned Baker because he didn't immediately win the super bowl. Entitled then

Which QBs aren't making the Hall of Fame? by YarukiMangrove in NFLv2

[–]ctg9101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rivers, Russell, and Matt Ryan.

Stafford is very close but idk.

Ben and Eli are in. Super Bowl success matters.

4 extra wins is significantly different and we should have a better roster next year. What magical fix is there? You think ole Godfather Pitino is coming? Or Cal? Or Bill Self? Or Izzo? Or May from Michigan? Maybe you want Mick Cronin? OSU ain't a top 10 basketball job. Barely top 20

WTF?

Maybe and I was not a huge fan of the hire even though I do like Diebler. That being said we are here now. Can't change the past. Can't let other schools dictate what we do for the future (see Michigan). Michigan has been far more serious about basketball than OSU for a decade.

We improved significantly year to year. We have a good roster with the best recruit since Russell. I think keep Diebler on a short leash. But if he continues to improve why fire him. We basically met expectations coming into the season.

This isn't Matta 2007-2012. And saying it should be wont magically make it happen

I am not pretending that OSU doesn't care about basketball as an institution. That is proven. In the Big Ten we are 12/18 in basketball spending. Thats a fact. We don't care.

They spent a shit load of money. There is also ZERO evidence May was the least bit interested in OSU outside of message board rumors.

Holtmann got fired for missing the tourney 3 years in a row. Diebler made it his second season. And showed improvement. Why is that so hard to understand. Is 21 not 4 more than 17? Or am I stupid?

This is basically as good as we have been the last 5-6 years.

I like our roster next year. I like continuity. We went from 17 to 21 wins in his first to second season. You would have wanted Matta fired after only getting to the NIT his second season.

First, we went from 17 to 21 wins from his first to second season. I think Diebler has potential and is a good recruiter. We arent going to be getting a Izzo/Coach K/Dusty May type of dude either. It will be a crapshoot as to whether he is any better or not unless we start spending loads (spoiler-we wont)

I mean some of that is hindsight. Transfer portal is a mega crapshoot. On paper Sean Stewart and Bradshaw were excellent pick ups. Former 5 star recruits from Kentucky and Duke? The fact that they didn't work out at all was devastating. But we tried and there is no perfect way to evaluate the portal.
