IUFLA

Haven't you heard? That's been cancelled...

I know some of it is his own making, but for a guy who is pretty much responsible for that 5th banner hanging in Assembly Hall, Steve gets crapped on a bit too much by the press and the fanbase...

I thought Michael Jackson did it during "Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever"?

And how about Hank Haney?

Charlie Lau was a career .255 hitter in the bigs, but is widely heralded as the best hitting coach in history...

I don't remember that, but I'll take your word for it...

Sure there will still be people doing shady things. If one school is very successful with NIL through a large fan base and a big market and their recruiting reflects that, it might even make things worse.

So from reading about what was happening, these "agent runners" were giving money to assistant coaches and hoping to have these assistant coaches funnel kids they'd recruited to certain agents...Matt Norlander (CBS) covered the trial and tweeted this about Roseland... So while he technically didn't do anything wrong, the intent was clearly there... And I'm shocked an SEC team would have "resources to land recruits" in place 😯 I guess I'm ok with it...I think Woody and Matta are smart enough to navigate ever changing recruiting scenery without landing us in trouble...

I thought so...the big feet gave him away...

Congratulations! What breed?

They have a Katz's Deli down here in Shenandoah, but it's not affiliated with the one in NYC. That said, it is modeled after the NY Katz's. The sandwiches and soups (especially the matzo ball soup) is fantastic... Dammit, now I know where we're going to lunch...that's 2 days in a row 😉

My wife's favorite too... That's why I know the salads are good...

The worst as far as I'm concerned is Potbelly's...I like their salads, but their subs blow... And Jimmy Johns isn't much better...

They still have them in Texas...3 in my general area...I haven't eaten at one in a loooooong time...

Definitely not Rico Brogna

Yes...Dammit...Now I have to run over to Kingwood and get me an Original Italian for lunch

If you get the chance, go...and order the Chipotle Cheesesteak or The Italian...Good stuff...

I watched a lot of Illini games last year, and Adam Miller would get pulled almost every time he missed a shot...Yet Underwood would pretty much let Curbelo stink it up and play through his mistakes... By the end of the year, Curbelo had turned into a pretty good point guard...Still had issues with turnovers and his 3 point shooting was abominable (16%) but he was effective going to the hoop and passing... Makes you wonder why Miller would get the quick hook while Curbelo got a pass...

I was gonna ask this the other day... Have you ever been to a Jersey Mike's? The best sub shop in the world, in my opinion, is White House Subs in Atlantic City...And Jersey Mike's comes the closest to that as a fast food chain...

I don't think he's a fan...

I don't know...but what @Billingsley99 said makes sense...

If the final assistant slot isn't going to be Mike Roberts, isn't Woody kinda doing him a disservice by keeping him in limbo during prime hiring season?

Link From an ESPN article...A little disturbed at some of the things Rosemond allegedly said... Among the other coaches whom Blazer said he, Dawkins and the undercover FBI agent met with in Las Vegas were Yasir Rosemond (Alabama), Anthony Coleman (Arizona State), Amir Abdur-Rahim (Texas A&M and now Kennesaw State's head coach) and Raphael Chillious (UConn). Blazer testified that Dawkins didn't pay, or set up payments, to those coaches because they "just didn't have any good players at that time." The video recordings and testimony from Blazer included discussions about Dawkins providing resources in exchange for access with those coaches. "If something needs to be done, we can be of assistance," Dawkins said to Chillious. "... You have the resources and ammunition if you need it." Dawkins made similar comments to Rosemond: "You're recruiting a kid that needs some s---, you know, we can facilitate." Rosemond replied he would introduce them to his recruits, telling Dawkins, "Whatever you need me to do, I'll do it. I ain't got no dog in the fight. One day be a head coach."
