Here's a twist on the portal SM post. KSU player announce he's going on a mission.

Soupie Grandma Sycamore

BYU recruit Lily Alder just ran a 2:07.28 800M. Exceptional time at altitude.

Is Cadence Kasprick committed anywhere?

I’m in the Provo area this week for a graduation. Don’t get here very often.

I'm responsible for a large company dinner near Provo. Need suggestions.

Best players on the teams left in the playoffs…how would you rank them?

PHXSUNS31

1:05pm

I think you're missing Murray, especially current form playoff Murray.

JJCoug

1:09pm

I was only counting best players on the team, so Jokic took the Denver spot

PHXSUNS31

1:13pm

He has a years-long vendetta against Murray, never mind the clear omission.

DC15

1:13pm

I’d probably swap Brunson and Ant at least based on the playoffs so far

The Pope

1:10pm

That’s fair…they were very close to me

PHXSUNS31

Also how would you rank their #2 guys?

PHXSUNS31

Are you ranking them based on current form or on the regular season?

I use it. It’s great if you’re ok paying off your existing phone to switch over.

Oh c'mon. You know he's staying in LA.

ManicBlue

Probably, but I think there’s a chance he doesn’t. He’s clearly willing to move

Then why are we freaking out about a certain player entering? Isn’t it too late

Chefcurry

We are?

JuicyJam

Don't think this is true. He signed a letter of intent. Requires portaling to

Lance71

12:40pm

Players can be released from the NLI without the portal. It's what Chandler did.

Soupie

1:01pm

I don't even think Chandler needed a release. Returned missionaries are fair

cwilke1

1:10pm

Yeah not sure but there was an announcement about it being granted. BYU always grants them.

Soupie

1:17pm

BYU's is still open for a week or so, because players get a 30 day extension

cwilke1

12:36pm

Got it. Well that answers my question.

Chefcurry

I believe a player can leave, they can unofficially visit campuses... but they can't be "recruited"...

Our lack of above-the-rim players was a huge detriment to our ceiling last season.

It's a private corp that already built a Miami to Orlando line.

DubuMfalme

12:26pm

It’s a good bet compared to most in Vegas

bruincoug

12:19pm

Definitely not by 2028

JuicyJam

12:23pm

If it’s finished, 100% will not be on time or under budget

bruincoug

12:23pm

The company's Miami to Orlando route came in under budget.

DubuMfalme

12:57pm

I hope it does, the traffic from LA to Vegas and back is a nightmare...

Atmospheric_Cougar

12:25pm

Yeah, I used to live in LA. Taking a train would have been so much better than driving

Clark Addison

12:25pm

Exactly, and add 110 degree heat, cars over heating etc. It was hell.

Atmospheric_Cougar

12:28pm

Sure, but for $150 billion, and only from Baker to Barstow.

Kaanapali

12:26pm

It will be overbudget, a complete mess, overpriced, and eventually underused. US should learn from Japan

spugeddy24

12:28pm

Why? The company has already built a Miami to Orlando line.

DubuMfalme

12:33pm

I hope they succeed. I just think it’ll be a huge mess and won’t be as effective as needed.

Here's a guy reviewing their Miami to Orlando service.

Fingers crossed. Solid video

AggieWeekendCougar

This is a very different system, being run by a private company.

They completed their line in Florida on time and on budget. And the logistics of

Lance71

12:44pm

Yes, it looks like a *better* bet than their FL line, and easier logistically.

DubuMfalme

12:56pm

I once tried to leave LA for Utah on a Friday afternoon.

Eddie

I hope so. The I-15 traffic to/from Vegas on weekends is terrible.

I guess the in-season tournament championship couldn't save Darvin Ham's job.

Darvin Ham was bad? I thought his schemes vs the Nuggets were excellent.

kimdaddy35

Go read the article on him from the Athletic

Huge Manatee

I think that is true but Ham was horrible with rotations. It’s been a problem

I read that he was not in charge of the offense or defense

Huge Manatee

It’s almost like that silly, gimmicky tournament isn’t actually very meaningful.

icecougar

CB does reflect to some degree the larger fan sentiment beyond, after all.

Could all be made up from "sources on CB" but what I assumed is that Burgess has good relationships with local coaches,

Tiny children do it all the time

I don't think the Narrows requires any climbing/repelling at all.
