“This is a very special honor,” Saban said while on the Zoom call of the meeting. "I can’t tell you how honored and how much appreciation we have for that.”
Albert Brooks was offered roles that went to Tom Hanks, Billy Crystal, Robin Williams, and Steve Martin. He turned them all down and reshaped American entertainment his own way.

Time feels to move faster as we age.
Say an average lifespan is 80. At 40, you’ve lived 50% of your biological life but your memory has laid down 75% of your life’s experiences.
It’s possible to slow our perception of time down, though.
I wrote how here:
Odds update for the ACC schools....not a lot has changed, but some newer intel changes the percentages slightly for a couple of schools
As we head into the summer
Clemson
51% Big Ten
49% SEC
Florida State
Big Ten 80%
SEC 20%
Georgia Tech
ACC remaining: 90%
Big 12: 10%

Solid rebuttal from
@ProfPaulPoast
to the argument that opportunity costs of arming Ukraine are too high. I’d add one more: if the West abandons Ukraine it will lose. And then the problems get worse and the costs increase. A lot.
Josh Heupel made it clear that there are a lot of questions yet to be answered, but a majority of the time at SEC meetings was spent discussing roster cap limits.
Thankful to have been named the Sun Sentinel coach of the year for the 4th time. That makes 13 total times I have been honored as coach of the year, which is a credit to my athletes and assistant coaches. They are the ones who do the real work and deserve the credit!
Pac-12 put a CFP team in title game… had the No. 1 pick… and six of the top 15 players drafted… and couldn’t get a media-rights deal done.
Wrap your head around that.
Also don't leave out Boosters are still paying College Athletes under the table and never stopped and that will continue and probably increase under the House agreement because these Rules incentivize Boosters to do things outside the system in hopes it give their team leg-up!
Prediction on House aftermath ...
- Title IX will apply
- NIL collectives will persist
- Big brands will rule
- Absolutely nothing will change, except for the new (rev share + scholys) expense line items
Without framework only collective bargaining provides, wheels will spin

What in Hell you talking about Son?
Western Civilization has been characterized last 2000+ years by Powerful Whipping the Hell out of the Weak and Taking Whatever the Hell they want!
Maybe few Elitists in America bow down to Weakness today...but America still driven by POWER!
The axiomatic error undermining much of Western Civilization is “weak makes right”.
If someone accepts, explicitly or implicitly, that the oppressed are always the good guys, then the natural conclusion is that the strong are the bad guys.

At the convention, Trump dramatically declared he would never speak of the assassination attempt again because it is, understandably, too painful…
He has the right to change his mind, but it sure seems this story is going to end up being like Piano Man at a Billy Joel concert…
