Icelandic Cougar

I watched Demin’s ANGT title game last night, so I’m now an expert on him.

Scheffler speaking to a cop at the scene

JOPE Resident Golf Fanatic

Ugh. Lesson here is keep your mouth shut once you’re in that situation.

cougfanz

9:34am

100%, he’s just too nice of a guy. Plus, it sounds like he was just saying yes as a nervous response to the other cop

JOPE

Definitive Fargo seasons ranked after binging

creameryon9th

9:24am

good rankings! Mine 1=2>>5>>>4>3

rotorhead

9:28am

but I really liked 5; it is definitely worth watching. 1&2 are masterpieces

rotorhead

9:30am

I liked S1 slightly more than S2 but both are great. Didn't watch the rest since

Lord Jim

9:30am

I like season 3 and 5

I’d rank them about the same

ZuluBlue

Just finished season 3 which I enjoyed however did not love

scrambled egg

9:35am

Agreed with 2 and 1 being really close. I recently rewatched Season 3, and it was much better the second time. 4 stinks

slappy

9:38am

Season 1 gets top notch for me. Billy Bob Thornton was outstanding.

Revolution

9:39am

On the Musk pay, some seem to be implying some moral obligation based on a contract that the courts have thrown out

Baron Sovereign User

9:20am

It's a totally out of line compensation package. They just need to reduce it to a reasonable number that's in

CSoul

9:28am

Also, they need to be smarter and have independence when doing compensation packages. Musk though likes to poke the bear

Baron

9:30am

most "pay for performance" / "skin in the game" comp package.

Greg Kite's 'stache

That could all be true, but there is one other big item: if you don’t give it to

P-Widdy

9:30am

This is exactly why you don't give it to him. Nothing stops him from trying this

memento

9:31am

It is all true. And your point changes nothing. Shareholders vote on what they think

Baron

9:31am

Sure, but Musk built his empire on government subsidies. Ones that are drying up fast and being spread out

CSoul

9:32am

The majority of shareholders voted and approved the package in 2018. The board

Skeptical Optimist

Name the two BYU players who had an offensive efficiency of 120 (with rounding) or better in Big12 games last year

Indy Coug Loquacious Lummox

9:17am

Noah and Saunders

Mostlyaccurate

9:19am

Saunders is one

Indy Coug

9:19am

Fouss

LifeLongLakerFan

9:21am

Fouss was 114

Indy Coug

9:22am

My gut tells me Saunders and Knell.

cougarfan84

9:19am

Correct. Knell was 120, Saunders 126

Indy Coug

9:19am

What's interesting to me is many fans remember the games that Knell struggled in

cougarfan84

9:27am

Doesn't help that the game he was best in, we lost.

Kdubb

9:29am

Well he shot something like 25% from three after the cinci game

ChubbyMoose

9:42am

Fous and Saunders

marinact

9:20am

Saunders and Knell!

9:42am

Bball team needs student managers. Any of you guys have sons interested?

Captain Rex

9:09am

My brother-in-law was a team manager for football

JOPE

9:13am

Why aren’t they paying their student managers? It’s not like BYU doesn’t have $.

BlooCoug

9:13am

Because people will happily do it for free

Cougz19

9:21am

Probably not much now.. 🙂

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

It might be there are grant in aid funds available.

Assuming Egor signs - our starting 5 at this point would be….?

Right now I think Hall-Baker-Egor-Saunders-Fouss. I bet BYU gets one more

Hall, Egor, Saunders, player not on roster, Keita

Coug76

9:24am

Right now the debate seems to be as follows:

VenturaCoug

9:29am

So how good was the league Egor Demin played in overseas? Is it worse or better

ldssdl

9:00am

he was playing in a U18 league, so his league/competition was much worse than

cwilke1

9:03am

I didn't realize that he was on the U18 team. I thought he was on the main squad

Lord Jim

9:23am

IMO, it is comparable to playing at a HS basketball academy in the US and

BYUheaven

9:04am

High level AAU ball would likely be the equivalent. He was easily a top 10 player in the whole league.

RootieBoy

9:06am

Is Demin a good free throw shooter? Asking for a friend.

Acorn

8:56am

Mid to high 70 percent from what I can see.

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

No good deed goes unpunished.

Ragnar Danneskjold You know...

No way. It says that in the scriptures? Where?

I really expected it to be in chapter #2.

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

8:48am

I think knell will get around 10 unless he’s hot.

Viva Campeche

9:00am

I could see that. Baker at 10 each at 2 and 3 spots, Knell at 10 total.

Zerigke Ally Zerigke

9:03am

Pretty accurate, I think

Nodak Cougar

9:06am

Going to be difficult for Crawford to crack the rotation if Baker is healthy

JoeExotic

Good estimate

Coug76

Pope has recruited well & now 3 guys are opting out of the draft and going to UK

We’re starting to have the same problem at the guard position as well….

This is why I speculated that it could be CC opting out of the NLI

There is no one on UK’s roster that threatens Jax from a shots standpoint

I wonder how many of the fringe second-round draft players are trying to leave

fbguru

This what I was thinking too. Does Jax move up by attrition of others bailing

Repairman was coming out this morning at 9. We scheduled the appointment a week

SuperTank

Is he stuck on an earlier repair/appointment? Would you want him to leave yours

That's what I thought. Very Danny Ocean/Rusty Ryan vibe. I'd probably enjoy it.

Jimo Dashen

8:44am

Could be fun.

Abe Froman

8:36am

Jaxson more likely to Kansas than BYU

VinnyBYU

8:16am

If you do beat them, join them?

Gustav

8:18am

I think the optimism for me comes from him reportedly meeting with BYU staff.

spidercoug

8:19am

"Stale intel" I'm guessing is bad stuff. With where our roster is right now, I think Jax is gonna see a more solid fit

SinkingQuffa

8:21am

Do you think these guys care about the fanbase?

kotacoug

8:27am

Jax seems like a decent & respectful enough kid. I certainly hope so. Yes, we have to afford him, besides.

SinkingQuffa

8:30am

The ‘fanbase’ might have as close to zero impact on these decisions as

kotacoug

Honestly, if I were that pessimistic, I'd drop outa college sports like I did the NBA. And maybe I will yet.

I certainly hope it matters to Jax. We probably don't stand a chance in this if it don't.

It might matter, but not as much as NIL and
