162-0 is still possible…. Go Dodgers!!


Did you see fanduels bet prop for any team to break the 117 regular season win record 👀👀 dodgers were +680 every one else like 4000+ and up😮‍💨🤌🏽 i don’t like it though…any team winning that much through the regular season flames out when it comes to the playoffs …still wild to see though

Dodgers just swept the Cubs in the Tokyo Series without Mookie and Freddie playing. Dodgers have a shot a winning 117 games this season.
 
Another example of a coach publicly moving to another school while coaching his current team in the NCAAT. Why couldn't this wait? Frustrated for the McNeese players
Would you rather him lie and say that there had been no contact or give a non-denial denial?

There had been a ton of smoke about it, so reporters asked him and he said yes, he'd been contacted. That is a better move than his alternatives.
 
If Tennessee isn't chosen by Mallory, Burries or Ament then Vols will possibly be taking 7 portal players for next season. Get the name tags ready for next year's team.

Lie, cheat and steal. The Will Wade Way ..

Wade could've told the team after losing. Now his players will give no effort because Wade is a turncoat...
But he was asked directly today, by a reporter, if he'd talked to NC State. You'd rather him lie, or give an evasive answer that would amount to a lie, instead of just saying "Yeah, my people have talked to them?"

If their players are going to give no effort just because their coach is leaving, then they don't deserve to win anyway. I highly doubt that will be the case.

Correct answer when Media asked the question is. "Next question" . Or " I'm just focused on the game tomorrow".

That’s easier said than done. Coaches can be put in tough spots, but if a school really wants them, they could wait a few days. It’s really about the coach’s mind being in the right spot preparing for a game. McNeese gave him a chance again.

As my dad used to tell me as a manager, if someone took another job, there wasn’t 2 weeks. They got a check and cleaned out their office that day. A lame duck employee doesn’t help you.

I agree, but he was put in a tough spot because he was asked directly by a reporter about it today. His options are 1) to be up front about it, 2) lie about it, or 3) refuse to answer, give an evasive answer or a non-denial denial, which makes it an even bigger story.

For all we know NC State was probably OK with all of this being announced once McNeese's season is over, but someone probably leaked it and he was directly asked if he had talked to NC State.
