Arkansas fans: I can already tell you what he’s gonna say in the postgame presser:

“Look, I’ll take as many ugly wins as I can get. If I could win every game 2-0, I’d take it!”

[Nathan Chester @NathanChester24]

Hahaha

As funny as this would be, it wouldn’t be good for Memphis. It’d mean they’d have almost definitely have to beat them next week to get the G6 bid.

[Nathan Chester @NathanChester24]

@G_Kuhn71 Is there anyone in their administration who’s concerned that he doesn’t remotely care about the program? That if this goes south, he’ll just leave like he always does?

He doesn’t care about the risk because the risk won’t apply to him.

Beyond the Lindsay Clancy case, the fact that you can claim insanity in certain states, then the *prosecution* must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you WEREN’T insane, is well, an insane legal standard.

@jarsofKlay Looking forward to getting back to it, have always found it easier. Galatians can be a chore 😄

salvation of the elect and the destruction of everyone else.”

[Nathan Chester @NathanChester24]

Calvinists and non-Calvinists must both wrestle with the problem: “God CAN save everyone - but He doesn’t. Why?”

I just find the answer “Because God generally respects human free will” to be more logical, biblical, and satisfying than “God desires to glorify Himself through…

If I had a nickel for every time we’ve helped someone in need who said “oh, we’re DEFINITELY coming to your church next Sunday!”, I’d have a bunch of nickels and no new church members 🤣

With 9 women on that jury, she could have blown up a building, and there wouldn’t be a guilty verdict.

Our society is sick with the disease of tribalism.

[Libby Emmons @libbyemmons]

The 9 women and 3 men tasked with determining Lindsay Clancy's guilt in the 2023 murder of her 3 children can't come to a unanimous decision. Judge Sullivan tells them to keep deliberating.

Kiffin is so toxic that at this point, he’s going to have to make the playoff every year to justify his continued presence.

An SEC school official to @YahooSports: “There are plenty of other schools who will take their place.”

The feud between league members and LSU has the makings of unprecedented and historic decisions.

“So you really think YOU played a role in your own salvation?!”

I mean, the Bible says that God will hold me accountable for my response to His offer of salvation, so yes.

Most dominant D-line performance from Memphis that I can remember.

Konch is the final boss of “I don’t watch games, I look at spreadsheets” players.

[Shooting the Gap @Shooting_TheGap]

John Konchar turns 31 in March.

You would have retained his full Bird Rights to keep him next summer on a team friendly deal if he fit well.

6’5 with 6’8 wingspan, one of the most impactful role players per minute played in the league.

Meanwhile Cody Williams is barely an NBA player at this point. If he wasn’t drafted high, he would be on a two-way deal already.

How does this choice make sense for a team trying to win next season?

[Nathan Chester @NathanChester24]

The Grizzlies’ relationship with OrthoSouth was basically unquestioned and unscrutinized for the last 3 years, despite the Grizz having 2 of the most injured seasons in NBA history during that time.

Glad it’s finally a valid topic of conversation 😎

@CosmicSkeptic I’m a pastor, and I too enjoy both 😄

[Nathan Chester @NathanChester24]

People are entirely too cynical. This is an incredibly thoughtful gesture.

[Protestia @Protestia]

The young woman we featured yesterday explains further her motivation for writing while answering questions and accusations from her critics, (after this blew up on X) some which she has found hurtful.

Ultimately she notes that she's doing it as a way to show her gratitude and love for her Lord and Savior, noting that the process so far has made her a "kinder" and "softer" person.

Aslan is on the move.

BREAKING: Two lions are reportedly on the loose in Indiana, with authorities “unsure of where the lions even came from.”

[Nathan Chester @NathanChester24]

By this logic, there’s also no point in Calvinists praying for their unsaved friends and family members. After all, their ultimate fate is already predetermined!

[Lizzie Marbach @LizzieMarbach]

Non-Calvinists sure do pray like a Calvinist when their friends and family aren’t saved. 😬

“Lord, please open their eyes! Save them!”

Huh? How can he do that if it depends on them?

The cat is out the bag 👀

I'm going to be shifting draft/scouting content over to @NoCeilingsNBA. Looking forward to being a part of a team that always making waves and generating motion in the online scouting space!
