I just noticed this part: Whoa. Mind blown!

It appears as though we've clinched a single digit win season. We did it Mean Green Nation!

Will Dickey be the Diet Coke supplier?

If there ever was a hall of fame thread before it retired, this is it.

What flavors of sake will they have? Has anybody alerted Keiichi that their days are numbered?

What if I were to sweeten the deal with some Vitamin E?

15-0

But...but what if Texas/OU play each other on Thanksgiving and it's cold outside during the 11am Lamar kickoff during my kids soccer games right before we open Christmas presents?

Welp. Time to go back for the ole doctorate.

I'd love to be a fly on the wall of the team plane/bus for these last two games. If I'm a player, at this point, I'm thinking nothing more than "Hey! Free trip to Kentucky and West Virginia! Look mom! I'm in...West Virginia!"

What are your thoughts on schnitzengruben? (Sorry. Blazing Saddles came back to Netflix yesterday)

All I know is that I'm too pretty to go to UNT.

We should definitely be higher than 125, but since when do I care what ESPN has to say about anything? If ESPN had their way, every college football game in existence would be Alabama vs Ohio St. several times a week. They've no interest whatsoever in either covering or positively commenting on anybody in the G5.

I'll be drinking heavily and gambling away my daughter's inheritance in Shreveport on Saturday night. Somebody text me if any hammers fall and/or if we succeed in our quest for a single digit win season.

Dammit, Wren! DO SOMETHING! /s

This to me is a fundamental flaw in basketball. When teams/players/current culture/whatever dictate that free throw percentages are so low, and oftentimes dictate a substantial portion of if not the entire margin of victory, then defenses are effectively incentivized to foul as much as they can get away with, for they get rewarded with a minimum of 0.4 points every time they do. It slows the game down something fierce, is about as exciting to watch as athletic administrative staff spreading mayo on a Jimmy John's sandwich, and from the point of the of the team shooting, seems to be entirely ignored as a potential weapon.

I read that too. The Juco he coaches at is dumping their program. He doesn't coach at Sam Houston.

No, thank you for actually reading the article. The answer was right there, staring me in the face, and I didn't see it.

I don't see the actual contract anywhere (surely somebody can find it), but this article from the DRC, dated December 4, 2012, states that Benford had just signed a five-year deal. That implies to me that the contract itself probably runs through November 30th of this year.

But...but...mah Texas ties!

And by pretty strong, he's talking about how TCU is presently the #1 ranked team in the country.

It's well established that I'm no basketball expert, so I ask the following questions out of sincere curiosity with no intent of stirring any pots: I think it is at this point a foregone conclusion that we will have a new head coach pacing the sidelines next season. Without speculating on who that person might be, I'm curious about timing, talent, and recruiting? Is national signing day the same for basketball as it is for football? Is there any time whatsoever for a new coach to recruit any players for next season? How does it work if a number of current players choose to leave, leaving the team short handed for 2017-2018? Is there raw talent on the existing roster to win games with a better coaching system/game manager?

To the pictures of the indoor facilities, isn't indoor track an entirely different NCAA sport?

Please don't anybody misread the internet tone here. There is no bad intention. OP's post just got me to thinking -- I honestly don't think I've ever ordered ANYTHING from concessions in the Super Pit save a soda once. Like. Ever. I guess basketball just doesn't make me hungry.

10 point dogs to the Dogs.
