dingus79 All-American

1:26pm

POLL: If you hypothetically ran into Ed O'Bannon on the street one day

Carnac

1:24pm

Changes needed to be made in the athletes favor, but he's ruined college sports.

COUGZ

1:25pm

Cashier's check question - use MACU, but live out-of-region.

Adam_Pontipee

1:23pm

Doesn't MACU have a bunch of affiliate credit unions?

GfB

Call and have them mail it to you.

NorCal_Coug

Lost out on a house despite offering more than a competing cash offer. Is there

SuperTank

NIL craziness will last as long as people are willing to play along. People keep paying, players will keep asking.

Since Mexican food winning poll below, what is your favorite Mexican restaurant?

IDAHO 4 Y

TADOW

This is the correct anoser.

Adrielle

Maria Bonita in Orem.

The Taco Shop

creameryon9th

1:18pm

El Mexiquense in Lehi

Hoopster

It’s gone downhill. 5 years ago it was the best. Still good though

BYUheaven

1:21pm

They closed the one in Sandy. It wasn’t that good, sadly.

Pierre Delecto

1:23pm

The Saratoga Springs location is a dumpster fire.

RockyBalboa

1:23pm

Sol Agave in American Fork is good but pricey

Hoopster

1:19pm

Sol Agave in Lehi and Red Iguana in SLC

cDog801

1:20pm

I've liked La Frontera.

StarMan

1:20pm

The Red Iguana in SLC. Mama Chu's in Orem is decent.

Adrielle

1:20pm

Cafe Rio. I kid.

TADOW

1:22pm

Favorite right now is Real Taqueria in Holladay. Sol Agave is good but overpriced, IMO.

Pete

1:23pm

Real Taqueria is the bomb.

RockyBalboa

Dang looks like to be a cracking game at Villa Park. Already 1-1.

You are giving away my secrets

kimdaddy35

1:07pm

You receive a tax free lump sum of $30,000. What do you do with it?

Jeff Spicoli

1:01pm

Pay down any debt with it.

Coug98

1:02pm

Pay down the highest interest loan I have.

JAGA97

1:02pm

What if that loan is a 2.75% mortgage?

squidmark

1:07pm

Invest in something that will reliably and consistently beat the 2.75.

BoiseBlueCoug

1:09pm

That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Bitcoin, here I come!!!

squidmark

1:10pm

Spicoli spends it on weed and pizza

delinquentcoug

Save half and use half to buy a car for my daughter at college.

brj8

If Noah Waterman wants to play at BYU and get the most money possible from BYU

CougarCanuck76

12:57pm

If that's truly what he aims for — I hope he was encouraged there by a wise source rather than a foolish one

SinkingQuffa

1:03pm

No chance Noah is left high and dry. He's going to cash in somewhere. His agent isn't an idiot.

CalGTR

1:08pm

I hope not. I followed the NBA long enough to see some pretty idiot moves by agents (that most informed fans

SinkingQuffa

1:25pm

A 3-pt-shooting, 6-11 bigman always has a place on any NCAA roster

CougarCanuck76

1:10pm

Oh, I agree he has value. But does KY see him as being as vital a piece as Dallin & Richie? I'm not so sure on that.

SinkingQuffa

1:19pm

In the words of Teddy KGB...

Adrielle

1:04pm

Mods is it ok if I post about Waterman now?

Cooouuugs

12:55pm

For you specifically? No.

Indy Coug

12:56pm

I’m not a fan of shutting miles of I-15 down for a funeral procession.

Abe Froman

I said this yesterday and got lambasted. Good luck!

StarMan

Societal reminder to not kill cops, I guess.

IGlowInTheDark

1:18pm

It's a token gesture to respect and appreciate police. If our society was better

KayakCoug

1:23pm

If I told you 4 years ago that the biggest rivals for BYU's recruits and transfers would be Creighton, Louisville & UK

Indy Coug Loquacious Lummox

12:52pm

that's only impressive if we win some of them

Digital Gangsta

12:54pm

It's not a matter of if we win them or not

Indy Coug

12:55pm

oh, it's 100% a matter of if we win them or not

Digital Gangsta

12:57pm

Like Hall? Saunders?

runnincoug

12:59pm

You only get to count the players DG approves of counting

Indy Coug

1:01pm

no, no, I think it's a massive coup that we retained some of our own players

Digital Gangsta

1:03pm

It doesn't matter insofar as the whole point of the OP was to point out the change we've seen

Indy Coug

1:09pm

Everything is different with NIL, unlimited mobility for players, & NCAA loss of enforcement options. It could get worse

Maxim Logue - France Pro League U21

mjmill All-American

12:50pm

So why would these Euros want to enroll in college in the US when they could

mudpupper

12:51pm

Specifically in this case to play a year for a guy who just came out of the NBA?

Carnac

12:52pm

I doubt anyone that age is getting close to $2M playing in Europe

CougarCanuck76

12:53pm

Yeah this was a U21 pro league, bunch of 17-21 year old kids. I bet they didn’t get paid much

mjmill

12:57pm

He's raw. Not only is he probably not making too much, he plays in front of WCC crowds & isn't a guarantee

SinkingQuffa

1:00pm

Because KY is going to model the NBA developmental program at BYU

puntersarepeople

1:04pm

Because there is an NIL bonanza happening in the U.S., and that NIL money will absolutely dwarf what these guys

CalGTR

1:06pm

Did I miss something? Is he coming to BYU? Or, do we have a shot at him?

squidmark

1:01pm

He's here visiting right now

GfB

Here on OV and yes, we have a shot.

Archaea

12:44pm

Phosphoric acid is bad for you. Bad for you bones, teeth, kidneys and heart.

777

12:48pm

The studies on that are mixed. Phosphoric acid is thought to reduce bone density

Archaea

1:12pm

Because the aftertaste is terrible.

John Doe

12:55pm

Too much caffeine is bad. Over 400mg or about 8 cans of Diet Coke.

Joe Banks

1:07pm

And only few regularly drink that much.

Archaea

1:16pm

Has there been any strong evidence to suggest that Diet soda is bad for you?

stenso

12:36pm

Nothing really solid outside of what you mentioned.

cougfanz

12:37pm

It’s bad for you because it tastes awful. Water tastes much better; drink that

Nikomedes

Water is the worst.

There is no solid evidence that is harmful to you.
