How is the collective helping "all student-athletes"? It sure seems like the

If it weren’t for basketball and football there would be no college Olympic sports.

Thanks....so, how is the collective helping all students athletes like their

Don_Juan_El_Guapo

10:14am

Yes there would, they would just be operating on a fraction of their current budget.

Joe Banks

10:16am

To add, without football or basketball some of those Olympic sports would become much more revenue generating.

Joe Banks

10:17am

I get that football/basketball revenue helps with Olympic sports... I'm asking

How do small conference teams with almost no fans manage?

Definitely an overstatement. There were college sports long before they made $

I agree... 👍

Can "Urgency" & "Effort" be learned/improved in a player as experienced as Jax?

BamaCoug

10:06am

Does KY's NBA-style gameplan mean positions 1-5 don't really apply anymore?

DirtyWater

10:01am

Positions definitely still apply in the NBA. You don’t see Rudy Gobert at the three point line

RealTaysomHill

10:04am

But you do see Chet, Wemby, Turner, Lopez, etc doing it.

PHXSUNS31

10:04am

Those guys have range. Plus they still hover in the paint on defense.

mudpupper

10:10am

I’m just saying being a C doesn’t mean you don’t shoot 3s

PHXSUNS31

10:11am

This is my point though. I named a center who doesn’t shoot threes. You named a bunch that do. The fact that you are

That’s based on his offensive limitations, not the NBA norm anymore

NBA has been heading that way for awhile. I’d definitely expect an nba offense

Guess you'll have to stop traveling now. We'll miss all your travelogues but somehow we'll manage.

Are you worried people will think it’s weird an adult is screaming?

You should probably stop screaming then

Depends on if they guy they really want is there

Sure. I definitely agree we don't want three rookies.

Seems like you use a cashier's check so that the seller knows it will go through

cougarmeister

9:54am

No, not common. There are steps the seller can take to ensure the authenticity.

Corn Pop

Do the exchange in the parking lot of the bank. Walk in together and verify the money.

IAmSpartyCoug

Do they have title or do they still have a loan?

You have to register in Utah when you move there anyway.

Restaurants are for adults to be away from children.

Do you have to attend the camp to be on the final roster?
