    No, but Edinburgh has a population  of 4,400 and more than half have a surname of either Burton or Streeval...

    Weird place... 

    Technically I worked in Edinburgh a few weeks. They blew up our corporate office and each of us was sent to a different plant. Mine was Edinburgh, I found a new job!

    Shiny new thing syndrome.  As a fan base, we get excited about each and ever commit.  Every recruit is automatically better than what we have now, and most of them would have started for our undefeated '76 team.

    Heck, if @IU Scott announced, we would tout his church league stats and pencil him in as the starting 2.

    Kind of like every coach out there is better than what we have. Heck I’ll nominate the coach from my alma mater. After all he just won the DIII national championship!

    Semolina is simply used to keep the dough from sticking...it does become part of the crust, but only surface level...

    Worked at Dominos for a couple of years, and that's what they use it for...They keep the dough itself cold, and that helps with the stickiness too...

    That makes sense, thanks for the lesson.🙂

    Pretty sure that's semolina. It's the flour used for english muffins to keep them from sticking.

    I am probably wrong but isn’t semolina course ground? Pizza flour is usually more like 00 fine ground?

    I'm the opposite.  My tastes in music are so random that I've broken the YT Music AI.  "Suggested playlists" are more like "random shuffles", which I don't mind.  Guess that's what happens when you go from DMX to George Strait to the Jackson 5 to Britney Spears to European symphonic metal in one playlist 😂

    Arrrrrghhh! So I used to be the sound guy at church playing walk in/out music from my account. So instead of saying play music just now I said play my playlist. First song was church instrumental walk in music! 😬

    A) Now that is impressive....a predictive model that can calculate if a player's 3PT% will improve in college vs AAU.  I'd love getting under the hood of that one to see what's involved. ABSOLUTELY!

    B) I'm going to guess that Woody isn't exactly high on a lot of analytics, which isn't just a shame, but almost a slap in the face given that Bloomington is almost "Ground Zero" in the birth of sports analytics. Could be like me and doesn’t think much of what’s typically available. Someone from that GROUND ZERO needs to step up and show him what real analytics can do!

    I need to teach my music AI to be that way! My my mind and music interests are like an out of balance spinning top. Going here and there crashing into things!😂

  8. In this thread and others I have been pretty down on the numbers and analytics, not because I don’t believe in them but because I do. The problem I’ve had is most are simpleton based on record (think RPI & NET) others are better but still only based on box score databases. In a tool box, it’s like using a worn out adjustable wrench, Instead of using the entire MAC Tools toolbox. Elsewhere I posted that until you have a team evaluating all of the detail utilizing advanced methodologies… well let’s just say I can get around this. Meet the 'secret weapon' in Alabama's Final Four run

    I remember after getting through several Calculus classes the first day of Differential Equations the professor said welcome to mathematics, everything else up to this point was arithmetic!

    All you need is Ozzie/Black Sabbath, Metallica, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, Rolling Stones, Elvis, and Temptations.

    Playlist will build itself 

    Kind of partial to blues rock need to add some Samantha Fish and Kenny Wayne Shepherd

    I was on the beach in Key West as that last hurricane last year drove by. Bucket item, CHECK ! I did a cyclone in China as well. Total Lt. Dan moments ! "This all you got"? 

    When the blinds were slapping uncontrollably against the window as the F2 passed by 200’ away I just rolled over and said to myself if it’s time it’s time?

    KU and UK have been getting paid for years, same with Duke. Their lockerrooms seem to be fine. 

    People thinking the playing field is now level do to NIL are living a dream. It’s more competitive now absolutely! But schools like Alabama and Kentucky still have very mature infrastructure when it comes to runners and bag men. A players handlers and relatives aren’t getting NIL, but???? NIL money is taxable, but under the table???? You think AAU coaches and promoters are suddenly good with NIL not coming their way????
