Judging by his landing spot, I'd wager it's pretty clear what he was looking for... Playing time. His role here may not have been a lot different than it was last year, perhaps a few more minutes, but barring injury unlikely to be a major contributor. I imagine he will earn a starting role at...

In theory... In practice they seem to be keeping a lot of high priced orthopedic surgeons in business. lol The current science seems to be pushing the limit of what can be achieved, rather than what can be achieved sustainably. Hopefully their data sets are beginning to provide a better...

It will be a lot easier to project where he could end up on Sunday. There is soooo much variance in the way the lottery could shake out. It's really hard to guess where the best plausible place for him to land is, until we know who is picking 5-10. There are 9 teams with at least a 20% chance at...

I think the first step is for MLB and individual organizations is to admit they have a problem. I also don't think workload reduction is the primary driver of increased velocity, but rather better technology and more effective workouts. (biomechanics analysis, weighted ball workouts, and...

Torque is definitely root of the problem. Generating that torque is traumatic for a lot of structures in your elbow and arm. Often when muscles and ligaments get stressed the best thing to do is rest them, and allow the body time to heal. I'm not arguing that it would solve the problem. We...

Regarding Boyd, Carter Hawkins today: Hawkins shared that Boyd underwent surgery on Thursday morning. He also announced that the Boyd did not require a full repair and had more of a "trimming." “It’s more than a month for sure, and then we’ll kind of figure it out from there … So we’re...

Among several other things... Shooting%, FTs (52%? 🤢), Turnovers, rebounding... Pick a stat... they got whipped in every way.

That's why I think the US Government has to be part of the solution. Unlimited immediate transfers are making every mid-major a relegation/developmental league. If the government codifies the rules by applying exemptions to inter-state commerce laws regarding "amateur" athletics, perhaps some of...

It's kind of wild. I'm sure it is something that will have to be considered in the next CBA. I wouldn't be surprised if we see more 6 man rotations in the future. If I had a say, I'd be advocating for another roster spot for pitchers. Other than the added expense, I think it would be a win for...

Expanded NCAA Tournament is reportedly a done deal. lhttps://sports.yahoo.com/mens-college-basketball/breaking-news/article/ncaa-mens-and-womens-selection-committees-agree-to-expand-ncaa-tournament-to-76-teams-175012059.html

Basketball Reference lists Nico as the Executive in 21-22, Jalen's last year in Dallas.

Sportsbooks don't either (about 15th best odds to win Natty)... They tend to be better at this than anyone.

The whole paradigm has shifted. You have to "recruit" your entire roster every year. Recruiting is synonymous with roster construction, since everything must be renegotiated annually. Discounting the time/effort/NIL allocation/procurement coaches have to invest in retaining good players is...

He did, however, choose to play for a different coach. Wade's offer must not have been "strong...: enough.

I believe we are tied for most players on IL... even crazier, all but Tyler "Who is that guy?" Austin, are pitchers.
