Anyone down here in Houston planning to (or at least thinking about) going? Tipoff is at 7pm. I'm going to try to get out of the office early, and grab something to eat at Jasons's Deli beforehand.

If we lose to La tech what happens to Benford when they return home? Does he a least have a talk with RV? He cannot take the full blame, the entire team is a mess but I will always support them! I jus

I just think first Benford needs to select a starting line up and stick to it. Then the players need to take their abilities to the court. Such a train wreck right now on all ends. It's fixable but we need to get it going soon. Hustle, get stops, and make baskets. Sounds easy enough haha

IF?!? What do you mean IF?!? It's only halftime but La Tech is only down 5 against Tulsa. If they beat the hurricanes we'll likely be their 20th win of the season.

Saturday....I think I may watch the Olympics instead of listening to us get pounded by LA Tech. That is gonna be a beatdown.

I can no longer pick up the broadcast the old fashioned way where I live, and that may not be a bad thing.

At least there's no question what will be remembered as the high water mark for the Benford era. That 20 point win in College Station looks more impressive (and shocking) by the day. I know they're only 13-9 (4-5 in the SEC), but seriously...how the F did we beat them by 20? :lol:

You guys, Rice is a good team and could crack the top 25 this season. Plus we beat A&M and played OU close. Both of those teams should finish in the top 2 this season. Just wait until we get rid of JJ's recruits and Benford gets all his guys in here, then we should be competing with the Heat, Thunder and Pacers for best in the NBA.

Rice's webcast is one of the worse I've seen. Stream was fine, but no sound for a lot of game, amateurish announcer, playing highlights during game, and occasionally out of focus.

Back to the game, NT sans Voss, who actually had a good game, has no inside game at all. I officially nominate Gaines and Coleman to the Barnett, Howerton, Knox Legacy Club of very limited 6'10 players.

I don't see how this club will equal the two wins it has in the rest of the CUSA season.

Hey now... We're all upset here, but let's not take it out on the Howitzer.

He did have a handful of games better than just about anything Coleman has given us so far. For some reason he especially performed well against WKU.

      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.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Did you believe Alabama would be uncompetitive vs Oklahoma? What about OSU vs Tennessee? Did you think TCU would get absolutely nuked by Georgia a few heads ago AFTER beating #4. Michigan? Blowouts happen every year in we den the 4 team playoff. They mean little.
