We all have our talents. I always wanted to be artistic -- painting, music, whatever. I just happen to be good at working a silly puzzle.

I, for one, am very impressed. I have never even completed two sides of a Rubik’s Cube. I also haven’t tried since the early 1980s, but I have no reason to think I would do any better at 53 than I did at 13.

Or ups his value. First 5 rounds it’s a no-brainer. After that…crapshoot.

He will be 23 in February and has pretty much shown his talent. By being drafted next year after his eligibility is out, a team knows he has to take their offer. The only variable in it now is if he were to get more NIL deals.

It’s going to depend on when he’s drafted and how much he’s offered. They haven’t shuttered the Independent League. Several 1st round talents have utilized it when they didn’t like what the drafting team was shoveling. A Vols example is Luke Hochever. Say he’s drafted in the 6th or beyond and they give him a take it or leave it offer? He comes back in the top 4 rounds and the deal is better by osmosis. And if his stats improve with another season, his age is a wash.

My mom bought me a first generation Rubik's Cube when I was in middle school and I solved it the first day I had it. That doesn't mean anything really. I learned over time my brain is just wired to solve problems like this.

I can work it in about 1:30 -- my fingers or brain won't move faster than that. I've kept a Cube on my desk for 25 years. It serves as a stress reliever for me.

Same here , I got my first one when I was 10. Learned to solve it pretty quickly. Im considerably older than 10 now , and can still solve it in under 2 minutes. Every time I work one, i'm surprised that I still remember

No. But decisions get realer the better he performs. Anybody hoping he’s a plus one for 2025, prepare to adjust your strap.

I did it once in under a minute. After I pulled off the stickers I used different colored Sharpies. Crowning achievement.

We get MacIntyre AND Knight...usual suspects panic because we didn't get Madden.

I love Zane and he has been amazing as a vol…Evertthing that I have seen…. Has him drafted at the end of day 3….. he doesn’t feel like a mlb prospect to me….. he will probably have to make the choice between coming back or making low pay/traveling around the minor leagues trying to impress.

I tell my wife to quit over reacting. Instant black eye.

I reserve my "panic" for when we land NONE of our preferences. THEN we're back to the Dooley, Butch and Pruitt eras. Til then...
