I've got a weird practical question about scholarships that probably bothers me more than anyone else cuz I just like to know how stuff works. Let's say a guy (okay, Ty) enters the portal intending to transfer. Let's say he then decides to come back (not unheard of). At what point does any...

Jeez man I'm scrolling through the postgame the morning after a win that I wasn't able to watch why you gotta trigger me like that. Just thinking about that game still makes me slightly ill.

I won't lie, my Illini probably won't win today. I'll be happy if they play tough. But I gotta say, as an alumnus who suffered through some truly atrocious football in 1995-99, it makes me so, so proud to see the program now. The vibe is amazing. The fans are excited. The players are stoked...

Need to find out where he gets his undergarments cuz I could use the kind of support he has going there.

IIRC Brian Randle is still on staff too, right? Another Illini connection there.

I live in Texas. Rather than explaining the landscape I would simply ask that you send help. Immediately.

Going along with that...is there a downloadable on demand version of the game somewhere? Looking on Hulu now. Would prefer a legit source from one of my many streaming apps LOL.

There are so many amazing things about this but... 1. I haven't watched the broadcast of the game at all but I suspect I will find myself in the background on that run and on many other plays lol. (section 127 above the tunnel, Dee Brown jersey and orange Illini flag) 2. I went to the Rose...

Okay y'all a friend and I got four tickets (she's got an Iowa grad friend who is rooting for US in the bowl cuz state loyalty) in section 127 around the curve leading to the end zone. If any of you are gonna be sitting in that area, let me know. We hoped that most folks on the Big Ten side would...

Get your money, young man. You've earned it. Y'all better make sure he never pays for a drink in Champaign or Urbana ever again LOL. ETA: I've been calling him young man all day which I guess means... .

LOL I have no idea what that is. Clearly I am a professional. But it appears as if it integrates GAI (generative AI, like when you put in a prompt on ChatGPT and it gives you a letter/story/text/whatever) and RAI (retrieval AI, in which I *think* the AI obtains or farms/rakes for info?). It's...

Fun Fact: I taught a class on AI last week (wore a Gritty jersey, long story). Got away with doing the background of the PowerPoint in blue and the text in orange, and a coworker who's a Michigan grad was in the class. I took the liberty of putting the Free Press headline from the football game...

I had hoped to swing up to the Rutgers game from DC this weekend but I had to get home to Texas. I went to the Rose Bowl in January 2008 and haven't regretted it a single moment. I can do trips to major bowls every 17 years...personally. I'd prefer the team do it a little more often. If we're...

I cannot believe what I just saw

HOLY !!!!
