And unlike last year, Charleston and UNCW at home (although, with all of the offseason player movement, who knows in August who'll be good or bad next year?)

Good decision! They look great. Thanks for sharing.

I have been watching. Wrestling is a part the Olympics. Agree though, it would have been nice to see baseball and softball as well, although I think the IOC may have wanted to cap the total number of different sports and disciplines. They could have even had baseball and softball Iowa-style, here: h...

For better or worse, CAA Commissioner Joe D’Antonio has received a five-year contract extension that will keep him in his position through at least June 30, 2029.

Nobody seemed to be mentioning the fact that Villanova is in the NIT but what's worth mentioning is they're unseeded and have to go on the road to play Liberty! What! Nobody can rest on their laurels and it seemed not to long ago they were winning a National Championship with Jay Wright. So while N...

Estrada is going to be working out with the Spurs. Imagine Estrada to Wembanyama lob dunks.

Truth is, we don't yet know what we have. Does anyone see our next JWF, Estrada or Thomas on the roster? We might be a team that has two or three moderate scorers (10-12 ppg) instead of one lead dog (20+ ppg). I'll also be interested to see how our frontcourt talent develops. That can work and it w...

Estrada had a tournament-high 30 points in his team's 83-92 loss today: Box Score: https://d2od76x949sv9u.cloudfront.net/pit/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/18165202/Game-3.pdf Game Video: https://go.prepspin.com/2024-portsmouth-invitational-tournament-game-3-loser-of-game-1-vs-loser-of-game-2-thursday-...

Thought this tweet from Jeff Goodman was worth flagging for this overall topic... there's a player asking for $1.5 million in NIL! https://twitter.com/GoodmanHoops/status/1778460145250427266?t=f6NPyxM1lRoTEnSvY3m5dA&s=19 No surprise at all with representatives (agents) involved, seeking the max...

Estrada will have his chances to impress scouts in this year's PIT:

Unless I missed another appearance, Estrada got about 1/2 a second of celebrating in the one shining moment montage.

Two for him and one for Tyson Walker.

Hofstra does have its own collective and ALL of YOU are ENCOURAGED TO PARTICIPATE! https://turnpikeunited.com/subscribe/ Well, not exactly the help Calipari will get at Arkansas from Tyson Foods' John H. Tyson, but it's something! :D This looks like a fan-established thing, which is fine. But I'm g...

Nothing guarantees success. But try winning without having some sort of NIL collective going forward and see how difficult that would be.

dP - While I agree that UCONN didn't fit in the American, despite being the closest school to the league offices at the time in Providence, don't be throwing shade on Tulsa. Tulsa has a great basketball tradition despite being down of late. Numerous NCAA appearances, Sweet 16s, Elite 8s, and NIT ti...

Estrada has been a little sloppy tonight. A bit careless with the ball and he's missed two rims on bank shots and a few of those short midrange jumpers that are usually money in the bank for him. 2-3 on 3s though and leads the team in shot attempts. He only had two turnovers though. I thought Alaba...
