• FIU is bad! Really bad… horrible. Here are some of their bad losses this season:

o Lost 81-64 to an 0-6 Florida Gulf Coast University.

o Lost 99-70 to Monmouth, who is now 3-7.

• FIU Team ranking:

o Scoring offense – 203rd

o Scoring defense – 314th

o 3-pt percentage – 257th

o Field Goal percentage – 307th

For this game, the Cheer Sheet is dedicated solely to head coach Isiah Thomas and his coaching career.

• Part owner and Executive of the Toronto Raptors. After a bid to become full owner failed, Isiah left Toronto.

• Indiana Pacers head coach – team eliminated in first round of playoffs for three straight years. Fired by Larry Bird in 2003.

• Hired as President of Basketball Operations by New York Knicks in 2003

• In 2006, Knicks fired Larry Brown and named Thomas head coach.

• In a game on Dec 16, 2006, Thomas warned Denver's Carmelo Anthony "don't go in the paint" moments before a hard foul was committed by Knicks' guard Mardy Collins. A brawl ensued resulting in 7 suspensions.

• The Knicks lost a franchise record 59 games before Isiah was fired in April 2008.

• Career coaching record – 187 -223 (.456)

• Hired as FIU coach in April 2009.

• In his 3rd game with FIU, Isiah yelled at Tulsa coach Doug Wojcik to pull all his starters when FIU was down 63-25.

• Other controversies:

o Magic Johnson claims Thomas spread rumors about Johnson being gay after it was announced he was HIV positive.

o Magic, Michael Jordan, Karl Malone, and Scottie Pippen lobbied to keep Isiah off the 1992 Dream Team that won the gold medal in the Barcelona Olympics.

o Overdosed on sleeping pills in 2008. Harrison, NY police chief said Isiah tried to "cover up" the incident by claiming his 17-year old daughter required medical treatment.

o Isiah was found to have sexually harassed Knicks VP Anucha Sanders. The Knicks were ordered to pay $11.5 million in damages.

o Isiah organized a team walk out with 7.9 seconds left in the 1991 NBA Eastern conference finals, refusing to play the end of the game or shake hands after being swept by the Chicago Bulls.

Don't forget that he bankrupted the CBA.

And, as oldguystudent informed me, he got his smooch on with Magic Johnson during the NBA Finals. That's a golden picture, if anyone in the Crew has large printing capabilities.

I know he has some verbals, but has any of the high profile recruits actually signed on the dotted line?

Also, a scanitly clad coed in the 1st row of the pit crew would provide great material, and would probably actually distract Isiah from coaching.

Wait, that may not be good for us.

Someone should do a "Number of Minutes Since Last Sexual Harassment Lawsuit: " and then count of the minutes until he touches or talks to some female on the court.

One good thing to possibly do is bring some empty, un-marked Rx Bottles, and put coins, pebbles, or whatever makes noise in them, and have 'Enter Sandman' play in the background. My good buds who are die-hard Pokes Fans will never forget when I made up Rx bottles for T.O. a couple of years back, and when I waved them in their faces! And they were complete with a Presciption from Dr. Kevorkian! :D

I think I read online that watermelon is his favorite food - and also the favorite of several of his players. Any way we can leverage this tastefully?

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      There are probably 10 levels of donors and fans for a college athletic program. Anyone from a 70-year-alum always a supporter, to businessman only for advertising, to mom & dad only while son is going there, to corporate CEO wanting a name on a building, to t-shirt fans who just like the Flying Worm, etc. At P4 schools when the AD says they need cash, usually someone Big or a lot of smaller someones steps up. At our level I think it's more difficult to predict the donors and level of donations. I think it's also more difficult to find donors willing to give blindly to a non-specific NIL fund than to a specific building fund.

      Disappointed the game didn't allow us to see Mason, Cotton, and Vice.

      Two more home games before students are back, then hopefully the athletic department is going all out to try to compete with last year's record-breaking numbers.

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      In traditional professional football, when teams pay players and have a losing season, the teams still make $$$ and turn a profit. Thus they can afford to continue to pay players. In today’s college football, when boosters pay players NIL and the team has a losing season, the boosters lose money AND they don’t get to experience the joy of being associated with a winner. Will those boosters keep donating NIL? Do you have to find new boosters? Don’t you eventually run out of boosters? Just don’t see how this NIL model is sustainable. Rich people didn’t get rich by losing money and I don’t see how you can keep asking them to do that via NIL. The revenue sharing model WILL work and it will be interesting to see what percentage of revenue is ultimately allocated to labor. The NBA gives 51% of gross revenue to players. The other major professional leagues give less. But why would colleges give players anything close to that? College players are infinitely replaceable. People root for their school and as a consequence of that, root for the players competing for that school. But if the Top 100 players in college football disappeared overnight, would the popularity of the sport suffer at all? I don’t think it would. Offer the players minimum wage, make them sign binding contracts with buyouts and non-competes (assuming you can still enforce those: that is another rabbit hole). NIL will still exist but won’t be as big of a deal because of the contracts and buyouts. If a players thinks he is too good for this system, they can start their own football league or wait until they are eligible for the NFL. Why wouldn’t this work?

      I don’t know how much they care. It’s like monopoly money. Many of them are just borrowing from Uncle Sam and hoping they don’t have to pay it back.
