At 38 I had to get one done because there was blood (not to be gross). Ended up being a 1 cm polyp that wasn't far from becoming a real issue. Had to get one after 1 year, then 3 years....now I'm 5 years away. Scary stuff.

I'll say it again....thank you for raising awareness coach.

We don't make the tournament without Mayer.

There’s no way to know that. This team would still have had plenty of talent to succeed. They may have even gelled into something better?

They've been signing contracts for a long time. (scholarships and the support that goes with them are contracts). Inducements have been around for a very, very long time. My point is not to be pedantic but to argue that free agency is effectively here already. If the colleges want signees to stay longer than 1 year, they're going to have to come up with something that provides more stability. Loyalty is a 2 way street.

I agree, it’s readily apparent, and deep down I see it as the end of college athletics - at least for the big two sports. If in fact that happens, pretty
Much all college athletics will be DOA as football and basketball pay the bills.

When they become “employees”, they no longer have an affiliation beyond who is signing the checks, ala the NBA (which I despise btw).

Now I’ll get off your lawn

Hey, don’t let me tell you what to do.

Now worries brother, I enjoy the discussion. College sports is very special in my mind and to my heart. What we’re seeing happen in front of us is no longer college sports, and will be dead to me.

I simply cannot believe the sheer audacity of two random professors barking
demands at a university that they aren’t even employed by. Lol. The entitlement of that speaks for itself. It’s off the charts. IMO.

AND…the overconfidence in their ability to: define, and determine what abuse is for the University of Illinois and everyone else. ??

AND…could this be any more random??
I hope at they are at least being consistent with their scoldings. If they are…they’re gonna be busy…like busy from now on…

Shush! He does and is.

But deep down he's a lump of sugar.

I'm telling you, my girlfriend, who is an incredibly diehard Nebraska fan, adores him for how he treated her son in the hotel lobby, an hour before Iowa.
I do too but that's besides the point.
You can't fake those interactions. Glad he's our coach.

This Canuck needs to throw a case of Molson, some moose jerky, an ice fishing saw and line, and a slab of back bacon in the bed of his rusty '87 pickup and head for the wilds for a few weeks to get his head back on straight. Take off ya hoser, eh. You know as much about the Illini basketball program as a pig does about Sunday.

Mayer had career best numbers last year in a lot of categories. At what point do we blame ourselves for unrealistic expectations?

Including minutes.

I do not doubt this interaction at all, as he is a good guy. But an hour before the game he was still at the hotel? I was there, you’re telling me I was inside Carver before BU? lol

I do find it funny that this assistant professor worked at Duke for 6 years prior to his current spot. I wonder if he addressed Coach K's language towards players with the administration while he was there??

Hell no!

This was DGL reply. I just noted this tweet is from January . Interesting it’s just now picking up steam.

Shannon had a good response too but I can’t find it now!

Not trying to snap at you either, sorry! It was as everyone was packing up and heading out the door to get on the bus. He was close to the last person out the door and didn't act rushed in the least to us. Just chill as a cucumber.
