John Demos 👋

Used to work here. 😏

Rather than plagiarize my (much) smarter, more articulate colleague – I'll take the Twitter shortcut and simply quote Tweet this incredible thread. It's folks like Peter and many others that I had the pleasure of working with for the past 7.85 years. Can't believe it's over.🙏🫡

Why I left @twitter or rather why I did not sign up for “extremely hardcore” Twitter 2.0

Oklahoma State is the only Big 12 team in the NIT field.

The eight-team College Basketball Crown field will be released tomorrow; reports are that West Virginia is expected to participate, with Baylor also a likely candidate from the Big 12.

Alabama’s Aden Holloway has been arrested with a pound of weed in his apartment. Holloway is the second leading scorer on the team. I’m sure noted disciplinarian Nate Oats will levy a severe punishment.

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

@primetimebuffcu That’s what I’m guessing as well, though it could be friction with the Crown and NIT not taking many power teams? The 4 that are in had a better NET.

Wonder if Tad wanted the season to wrap to focus on player retention?

@prooney07 What happened? Saw the handshake exchange but missed what prompted either one

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

@zachhomol_ Amen 🙏

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

@AffordAnything This is thought provoking! It’s got me contemplating reducing bond exposure given I have both (income & rental prop)

Feels similar to @JLCollinsNH take on your pod recently where he argued that DCA’ing can act like bonds in how it smooths out the ride over the years.

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

.@prooney07 any rumblings of a potential NIT or CBC bid for the Buffs?

Sounds crazy, but with a NET of 86 / KenPom 81 & the high number of opts outs, seems like we should have decent odds of extending the season? Last place Oregon State played in the NIT last year w/13 wins...

@RWoods92 I think the battery died bro and it fell back down

[Jon Rothstein @JonRothstein]

Colorado lost its top five scorers --- KJ Simpson, Tristan da Silva, Cody Williams, J'Vonne Hadley, & Eddie Lampkin --- from last season's team that won 26 games & advanced to the 2nd round of the NCAA Tournament.

It just beat UConn.

Anarchy?

Nope. Just College Basketball.

@theficouple analyze

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

@StettyWap @CUBuffsMBB Yes, Big East definitely performs well in March, and they have the back to back champ.

I guess I’m old school, but I prefer conferences to make *some* regional sense which I feel like the Big 12 does (sans UCF and West Virginia)

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

@StettyWap @CUBuffsMBB It’s absolutely stacked! Great teams, great coaches, great match-ups - it’s the best hoops conference by a good margin.

Tough year for the Buffs try and rebuild 😬

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

@StettyWap @CUBuffsMBB Honestly, thought you were an angry CU fan. What are you doing wasting time replying to the CU hoops account?

Arizona is a premier program - just go enjoy what you got my man! Excited to see them match up against the blue bloods in the Big 12 this year

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

@StettyWap @CUBuffsMBB Best season in program history 📈
Could it have been better if everyone was healthy? Absolutely - but don’t discount what the team did down the stretch and the overall success that it was.

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

@JasonFitz1 Post long run for sure. And that’s from someone who has spent the last 4 year primarily strength training.
Not sure if it’s the endorphins, time outside, or sense of accomplishment - but post long run is a clear winner for me.

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

@kilianj Awesome!! I think I spy some @vivobarefoot shoes 👀 👌🏼

[John Demos 👋 @johnd]

@JasonFitz1 A very concerning pattern lol. I just can’t fathom tbh

I’ve always loved your take on all things running. And I appreciate some things Sage has offered. Just bizarre to completely disregard somebody for having a different opinion 🤷‍♂️
