Tulsa ain't Syracuse and Konkol's certainly not Jim Boeheim.

And no you would 100% die on Everest.


The Missouri S&T team would climb over your dead body without any media.

All that matters is we come out Monday much better and get our two forwards back in the next several weeks.

I hate ignorance and you have it in spades my friend.

Well… Syracuse lost to Le Moyne college in an exhibition game and still got an at large… so it’s not impossible.

Little concerned about his 16-31 completion % and the fact there were a few dropped interceptions. Little concerned this game was more about UTSA imploding than that of a Legas coming out party.

Sure. But concerns with the other guy too. Hard to switch horses after a big comeback win (though we saw that with Brin in 2020).

Legas is more a runner than a passer. We need someone that can do both. Williams is the best athlete on the team, according to Wilson.

Wow! For the 2nd game in a row, McKennie and Weah start and save a point for Juve. McKennie scores in the 1st half to tie at 1-1 with an assist from Weah. Tim Weah scores in the 2nd half to again tie it at 2-2. That's 2 assists and a goal for Wes and 2 goals and an assist for Tim in the last 2.. The Yanks go marching 2 by 2 for Juventus.

With our soft ass schedule I believe they would have plenty of talking points without having to bring up a preseason game

No, the media wouldn't bring it up if it was a PRESEASON GAME.

ASSTOWN, GIVE IT UP. It matters where on the schedule the game is. Good God almighty man.

Parents can only do so much. Parents submitted a video of him calling little girls a derogatory term to the TSC brass. His punishment….an apology.

Um, parents can yank their kids from the club and they'd have a good case that it was an abusive environment and a threatened lawsuit would result in refunds as much as the clubs love to tell you that you signed an agreement. The minute 3-4 sets of parents threaten to yank their kids from a program, the club would take a harsher stance against the coach. Anything that threatens a loss of $ for the club and they would take it more seriously.

I’ll say this , if we are struggling to beat bad division 2 teams ; I doubt we end up in that discussion anyway

Joao has been doing that for years. First at TSC and now at Blitz. Nothing ever happens other than a “stern” talk. This is nothing new.

dougheffking said:

No it wouldn't. Do you think the selection committee is going to go to TU's official website and look at that game if they have a good season? Of course not. It's not listed on their schedule because its an EXHIBITION. The SEOSU game was not.

Harris currently has some tangible momentum in the race. Polls have swung her way the last several days. I would rate her as a slight favorite as of today.

Me too.

Not sure how accurate the polls are this year. They undervalued Trump in key swing states 2016 and 2020, but I they are all working on correcting those errors. There are three distinct possibilities, all with an equal chance in my mind:
1) They are still undervaluing his support and he wins without much drama.
2) They are much more accurate this year and the race is a coin flip, but I'd give the slight edge to Harris.
3) They've overcorrected to try and capture Trump support that isn't really there this year and Harris wins without much of the expected drama.

I know number 3 might be the most controversial, but here's my reasoning:

Many pollsters have started doing a weighting on their sample to previous known election results. That is, in order to capture the "shy" Trump voters they keep missing, they overweight the responses of people who say they previously voted for Trump in proportion to his actual vote share from 2020. That way they can account for the missing Trump voters in years past.

But doing that effectively ensures that your poll results for 2024 look an awful lot like final election results from 2020, and makes it harder to pick up on any real shifts in the electorate. Lo and behold, polls are basically predicting 2020 results within the margin of error.

It's actually generally considered a poor practice to weight with previous results, but they are bound and determined to not whiff on him again. If Trump supporters turn out in similar numbers and proportions to 2020, they'll look like geniuses. If his support has actually waned, they could miss badly in the opposite direction as 2016/2020. It's also possible his efforts to gain new voters from groups that don't traditionally show up at the polls are working and they whiff yet again on him and he outperforms.

But yeah, I dunno. If you take them at face value, then I think Harris has a slight edge, but I wouldn't bet money on it either way.

We did have a 17 pt lead in the 1st half and I thought we were on our way to a blowout. But we either eased off with the lead or we didn’t have the right combos out there. But that’s one of the reasons for exhibitions-trying different combinations.
I was also extremely disappointed but we’ll see if we bounce back with a much better game Monday. I am concerned that we will lose a number of non-con games before we get Garcia and Amadi back.
