So how many points does Knecht get tonight?

30+

A lot better than Radithor. You ever seen pictures of Radithor Jaw or pictures of Eben Byers? Crazy.

Those pictures are terrifying

They had to put this out due to misinformation from RF.

Hear me out:

We move West to DT, and Josephs/Ross can move to SDE, that way we can have the trip of Pearce/West/Josephs or Ross on the field at the same time

I don't see Ross as a freshman starter right? He's really really skinny for a starting SEC edge? I think he'll be elite here, but he looks like a high school kid right now (because he is, not a knock on him).

That perfect 10 score on the Vault by the Kentucky gymnast was beautiful...

Stuck the landing. Tennessee discontinued gymnastics 1976-1977 time to bring them back.

Good grief Tennessee has a rowing team ..

Common folklore tells that Pat Summitt was so against sharing the gym with gymnastics that UT decided to add rowing and in lieu of gymnastics to balance out the female scholarship numbers needed.

Well it's a popular sport today, Tennessee needs to ditch the rowing team and add gymnastics.

Tennessee rowing competes in the Big 12 lol..

He's not that small. . .

Michigan hires Moore as coach on 5-year deal

Michigan promoted Sherrone Moore to head coach Friday, two days after Jim Harbaugh left to guide the Chargers.

www.espn.com

Did anyone else look at the terms of his contract? Am I wrong, or is that strange what his base salary is, and how his contract is setup? It screams to me that they know they are about to get hammered with sanctions, and they only hired him to get them through that period of time.

It’s a leap of faith with an unknown with no HC experience. It’s what you do with it. Luke Fickell was the most transparent placemat in the history of such hires and is now an upper echelon hire.

MJ is the GOAT. Anyone who says different is just wrong. Prime Jordan would school Prime LeBron and make him cry.

I've never weighed in on this debate, mostly because I don't care about basketball; but it seems like the difference between Brady and a host of other QB who are more physically talented. In a random pickup game, MJ would get schooled by quite a few other basketball players. Same for Brady (though football is much more a team sport than basketball, so his strategy of taking far less money than his market value to be on winning teams is the main reason for his success, in my opinion).

But over the course of a long season and long career, when mental toughness and will to win matter a lot more than they do in a single game, both just seem to have what it takes to sustain success despite their inferior physical talent and measurables.

LeBron and Kobe are obviously superior physically to MJ, just like dozens of QBs are obviously superior to Brady from a talent and physical standpoint; but MJ and Brady found a way to win despite that, and that's why they had the greatest careers.

He looks like a WR

Hes 230 lbs I think, he could easily bulk up 20 pounds too during weight training this offseason, he could definitely be a decent 2nd stringer and package guy

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Maybe a really big NFL wr. He is basically the same size as Megatron. I just dont think that's "really, really skinny." I think he's big enough to play now, due to his talent. He could easily be an every down defender at 240. . . 10lbs more than he weighs now.

So how many points does Knecht get tonight?

All of them.

Which is more hilarious the dropping of ball before crossing the goal line or the twitter handle..

Eh I'm skeptical of that 230. He looked a lot smaller than that to me in the under armor game.

Is probably because he's almost 6'5"

Jay Williams just said on College Gameday that he believes Dalton Knecht will be a top 5 NBA draft pick by the end of the year

FYI,,,i didnt know that former LV Andraya Carter is now on that show. She does a good job.

Would love to see it saying that NBA teams at top of draft usually draft these 18 year old players to develop them or think they're a Franchise player.

I think 15 to 20 range maybe he falls into a playoff teams lap. The Mavericks per say..

@butchna what you think about DK playing alongside Luka, Kyrie and Grant?

 

[Go Fight Win]

The Jordan Ross is too small commentary should be completely ignored

He’s as big as our best player

Do you smoke crack often, or was it just for this post? You think MJ would get schooled one on one by "quite a few other basketball players". That didn't happen. It wouldn't have happened. Not to Prime Jordan. Now that he's an old man? Sure. But not to Prime Jordan.
