Agreed on McLemore, NO shot with him.

Not offering Boatright yet, I can understand. I love his game, but he's 1 tiny fracker. Don't think it's a great idea to sign 2 sub 6 fters in 1 class(ART being the other).

The more we slow play Harrison though, the more I cringe. From what I've read, he sounds like a high-scoring combo G, similar to Cook. Hope we're not putting all our eggs in the Cook basket, if that is the case, I think we all know how that's going to end up.

I'll see if I can get Telep to comment on Nino and ART.

I thought we offered boatright.  Slow playing Harrison is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Capel: 19-29 in the Big 12 in years when Blake Griffin isn't taken #1 overall in the NBA draft.   FFAAAANNNTASTIC!!!

 :pbj:

Even including those years he's only .500 :dunno:

So for the 3 years I was referring to he's 10 games over .500?  :dunno:

KSU mentions:

20. Cook
30. McLemore (we're listed but have no shot)
61. Harrison
67. Boatright (we're not listed, but he's really more realistic than McLemore)

:frown:

glad we're getting A-R-T, I guess.

Huh, guess I'll have to party with them at Bonnaroo.  :gocho:

It's that "getting the talent to play together" aspect he's had trouble with.

He's done a fantastic job 3 out of 4 seasons at OU.

last year was weird.

He basically inherited Griffin because of his bro.  He gets too much credit for landing him and subsequently getting him to play an extra season.

Not really.

the bottom line is you and your significant other better be attractive, because I imagine it's really hard to love ugly kids.

stunz, were you able to avoid the war and sh*t in bankok?

the silver lining in the A-R-T sucking business is that I can probably say I told you so.  (go celebrate your Nino getting in the top 150 discussion, losers).

didn't realize there was so much skepticism regarding goodman qualifying.

There was always a lot of confusion over whether he was an 11 or a 12.

The comments about Jeff Green and his agent are interesting, too.

Per Adam Zagoria.  I think this is a positive (hence the "thumbs up").  Probably a non-factor, but the weaker Cox's school, the better for us.

Although it will be depressing if they get a QC visit.  :frown:

only thing is that in MI the only place that has 4G is Grand Rapids.  but I think Sprint is charging the extra $10 regardless of whether or not you're in a 4G coverage area.

$69 for Everything Data plan + $10 4G upcharge still = far less than VZN or ATT but still it seems kinda lame to charge the $10 to the hayseeds that aren't in 4G areas.
:frown:

sorry hayseed.  i might have misread the release but DO NOT think i have.

Oh, so hicks have to pay for a 4g plan?  :frown:

June 4th release date.  $199 price.   $10 upcharge for 4G, $30 upcharge for mobile wifi hotspot.  Everything data plan still @ $69.99. 

Boom you're roasted.

sweet.

was worried the plan would get gouged for 4g.

I KNEW I mentioned him before you.  :D

No, I meant in reference to Butler.  When you posted something about it, I tried to find this post (to gloat) and couldn't.  Great bump by FAN!

Until we step up and create a decent way of life for those south of the border and give them an economy where they want to stay in their homeland anything we do is just pissing in the wind.   It's a real shame they don't have more oil and Muslims, we'd be all over the "helping".   

or create a legal framework that disincentivizes over-the-counter businesses hiring illegal immigrants.  you'd still get some, working black market labor, but the enormous number of illegals would recede.

I did a project on this in college (writing in favor of the idea).  The more I read, the more I realized it was a complete horseshit idea.  Needs to be done, but won't do anything.  The Black Market and the Self Employed are the bulk of the illegals, and cheap labor is cheap labor its near impossible to enforce against.

Just need some clarification, are the illegals working in industry, livestock slaughter for instance, not much compared to the total?  I'd think put severe penalties on any business found employing illegals could go a long way toward stopping the incentive to come to this country by eliminating jobs. 

You need to make the incentive to stay in Mexico better.  Making it harder for illegals ability to get sh*tty jobs doesn't make Mexico better than the US, it makes a Big Mac cost more.

Mexico can make the incentive to stay in Mexico better. Last I checked they were their own country. Why the hell would the USA spend a ton of money upgrading Mexico?

To keep the Mexicans out.  That's is all we really want here, right?

I think Bush and Obama are both war mongers and we shouldn't be in situations were we can (or even need) to give no-bid contracts to Halliburton.  Do our resident neocons think Obama made a good decision here?

:dunno:

I was kind of hoping that Obama would live up to one campaign promise, get us out of the Middle East.

Still 0-fer on all campaign promises.

In 2007 he said he would bring all of the troops home within 3 months, remember that?

He pretty much said he was going to ramp up the war in Afghanistan the entire campaign.  :dunno:

No, he was saying he wanted to get them out of Iraq so he could get them into Afghanistan.  He also said he wanted to get involved w/ Pakistan while he's at it:

I agree with dax that the anti-war crowd should be more vocal in criticizing this (and things like the newly discovered torture prison).

honestly, if he'd have included kstate among the schools recruiting him the hardest, you'd have to suspect him of lying.  kstate doesn't recruit anyone the hardest.

lol, love posts like this.

Texas made $8 million more in TV revenue last year than Baylor. 


What's your source for this?

Quote
Which means Texas, Oklahoma and Nebraska will reap more than Baylor or Iowa State. In 2008, the difference between the largest payout (Texas) and the smallest payout (Baylor) was approximately $2.7 million.
