Yea....my insurance just cleared me for 18 more PT sessions. They've helped quite a bit.

First time I haven't had hip join pain in a year...the ball in my hip was completely disintegrated. Still have a way to go in PT but I'm walking so I'm feeling good.

You want to feel old then have hip replacement like I did 8 weeks ago. LOL

Man....that seems a lifetime ago. Oddly I was a D3 asst coach close to that time frame and I sat in a gym with Dave Bliss and his first assistant just a few months before that all went down. Bliss was a SUPER friendly guy. Very personable. The only other D1 head coaches I have met that were...

Taken from an article on rd 2 salaries (they typically get little to no guaranteed money but they CAN get guaranteed money...depends on the teams value of the player): "For example, Jalen Pickett was picked No. 32 overall in the 2023 NBA draft and signed a four-year $8.2 million contract with...

1000% seems like a very high number. Not saying he wouldn't be on a roster but the path to a roster is a steeper hill to climb for a second rounder....although he was getting projections in the upper to middle second round so his chances are/were a little higher. I saw him as high as the #40...

Teams like the Pirates are big on paying over slot for 2-4 round guys and drafting guys in the 1st that they can sign under slot.

You and I don't agree often....and I'm not of the idea Blair isn't here because of baseball. I think he ends up here....I'm just not sure how much he contributes as a FR in basketball. He's a wing in a pretty crowded room. His film looked pretty good to me but didn't just jump out at me. He...

I met Mike Miller at a basketball camp hosted at one of the colleges I coached at. Seemed like a pretty good dude.

I tinker with lineups early in the year too. I want to see which guys can handle bigger roles and which ones can't. See which groups seem to work best together. Sometimes it takes a little longer than others. On the flip side I'm not getting millions to figure mine out. Lol

How do you know those are our 7 best players in May? Rodgers may surprise you. Not saying those WON'T be our best 7....but stating it as fact now is iffy at best

I never said coaches don't make mistakes. Noone is perfect. Lord knows, as a person AND a coach, I've made more than my fair share. I just have issues with guys coming on a public forum and stating their opinion as fact and talking about a coach being stupid for not playing player X, Y or Z...

The most qualified person to decide who is playing and how much they play is 100% the head coach and his staff. As fans we think we know better because of snippets we see on game days. This board isn't the only fan board that b#tches about decisions the coach makes...there are a lot of guys...

Lusk says Payne is no longer visiting after the Reid commit. No more NIL $$ left? I thought they were separate recruits...not tied together
