First out: Utah, USC, Arizona, Michigan

CFB needs to implement NFL like rules limiting contact with coaches until the season is complete.

Kiffin leaving now would have been like Mack bailing on X before the 2018 NCAA Tournament. Ole Miss has the opportunity to compete for and win the national championship (even if it’s unlikely). Not seeing that out to the finish is truly the crazy thing to me.

Right there with you. Going to be a long rest of the season

Kind of a depressing mood overall about XU and the basketball team. No reflection on Pitino, I think he court do quite well. Just kind of down and annoyed about the state of things.

A lot of the decisions out of Xavier are minor annoyances to me but overall just my general feeling is the current administration and decision makers have a lot of own goals and just don’t have “it.” No intel but very much feels like DT - “they don’t know what the fuck they’re doing” vibes.

I don’t understand the decision to mandate 3 years of on campus living going forward. I know Xavier is having enrollment/revenue concerns but to me this is an asinine move and not a fix. I’m sure there was intel provided to make this decision but not a good move imo.

Pleased to see Muskie Lager introduced. I’m sure it’s not a simple thing to implement but it seems like it took longer than it should have to get off the ground. Branding and design is excellent. Beer is alright, drinkable at least. Craft prices stink. Probably would have preferred a lite beer.

It’s very annoying that the exhibition game wasn’t baked into season tickets. It’s a win win imo for the school and the fan. School guarantees maximum revenue by baking in the cost of the exhibition to the season ticket, fan doesn’t notice and there’s better attendance at the game.

I do think the defense could wind up being pretty good. Definitely a different system way more pressure and scrambling. Only guys that really stood out to me overall in a positive way were Robinson, Carroll, Messina-Moore, Borovicanin.

Don’t love the lack of 3 point attempts though.

I like that Pitino has successfully navigated NIL and the portal at a school and league that is not a tiny mid-major. Minnesota a very tough place to win at and he was very YOUNG. Good turnaround UNM with progress each year. Walking into great infrastructure at XU, can see this going really well.
