Re: One month out...Ceiling and Floor for SMU this year...

UVA hung with us for three quarters last year in the sense that their players were on the same playing surface as ours, but that game was not in doubt going into the fourth. Not at all. Our D was manhandling them. It would've been a shutout had their QB not launched a prayer and their stud WR went ...

Re: Best Steak in Dallas

I think the best steak in Dallas is Pappas Bros (they also have a great wine selection); however, the location is a bit seedy.

Can't go wrong with Bob's on Lemmon. I also really like Town Hearth in the Design District.

They were 6-6 and made a bowl last year. I don't know that they'll be that much better.

Are we sure that Chris Johnson Jr is the son of the former Titans RB?

Re: FSU: "We Never Said We Wanted to Leave"

FSU desperately wants to achieve AAU status and has ramped up the research $$$ to be in the conversation.

But I have to wonder how much their lawsuit shenanigans has pissed off Stanford and Cal (who they directly slandered) and well as the other ACC AAU schools.

Re: Worth a look?

ECM- totally agree with your comments. I really wonder why SMU refuses to go after quality, proven coaches instead of second level people.
Cost - The best cost usually the most. Is SMU willing to spend what the top programs are paying?
Options - The best coaches (when available), have plenty of ...

Re: Worth a look?

Give the new coach a chance.
We did, and he proceeded to set a program record for losses in a season (which included a loss at home to a Jackson State team that finished #304 in KenPom) and has not signed a player of out high school IN OVER A YEAR despite being hyped up as some big-time recruiter ...

Re: Rob Lanier doomsday clock

What have you seen recruiting wise that gives you any sort of optimism with this staff? So far everything has been a failure on and off the court.
Well, we do lead on three 2024 Texas top 10 prospects, a PG, SF, and Center. And weΓÇÖve got a four star PG transfer coming for an official visit ...

Re: Wichita State

You give any new coach three years to right the ship.
No. That's 2013 thinking. We have the transfer portal and we have NIL.

Lanier has done NOTHING since stepping on campus to suggest he was the right hire. The team this year was abysmal and he's signed a grand total of ZERO recruits out of ...

If we do not at least make the NIT next year, Lanier should be fired. Period.

Re: PAC12 Scenario = Expansion



I agree but bundling yields even less. Like I said, crazy and ingenious.

Who is going to pay a premium for a conference's basketball rights? Maybe a streaming/subscription service or a linear platform that's not ESPN or a major network. TNT/TBS could be an option. But I doubt the current big ...

We will soon find out whether Lanier was a good hire. Pressure is on to upgrade immediately and to significantly improve on this year's disappointing results.

Recruiting class looks good
