“If you give me consequences, I’ll have mental health problems”

Is one hell of a new meta for defense attorneys.

[David Burge @iowahawkblog]

If the NCAA can't suspend Brendan Sorsby for gambling, can the NCAA suspend a player for targeting a defenseless player, say for instance Brendan Sorsby?

Asking non-Lubbock judges to weigh in here

[David Burge @iowahawkblog]

This is Noah Shannon, model citizen, slated to be Hawkeye senior defensive captain 2023. He had guilt pangs for having bet $10 on the Iowa Women's Basketball team in the 2023 NCAA tournament. The only bet he ever made. He turned himself in to coaches for the transgression who forwarded it to the NCAA.

They ruled him inelligible for the entire season, effectively ending his career. If the NCAA allows someone else to play after making thousands of bets, including many on his own team, I am going to fucking riot

[David Eickholt @DavidEickholt]

Noah Shannon was robbed. Iowa and Iowa State got absolutely screwed.

[Keith Murphy @KeithMurphy]

Imagine being one of the Cyclones or Hawkeyes with far less egregious wagering who were never able to play NCAA football again.

Gotta love when a @Newsweek hack rushes to get a “Caitlin Clark trade to Sparks rumor” piece out for engagement farming, and forgets to delete their AI chat prompts from the piece.

It doesn’t matter if you’re a
man or woman
republican or democrat
midwesterner or southerner
Drake, UNI, B*, or any other fan
MVC fan or just a general CBB fan
We can all agree…
ARCH MADNESS IS PERFECT THE WAY IT IS. IT’S NOT BROKEN SO DON’T FIX IT!

[Garrett “Backcut” Sturtz @putmeincoach03]

Good morning. Just wanted to say if you can’t handle this, odds are you shouldn’t play in the NCAA tournament and should probably look for an easier conference to join.

[Jared Carrabis @Jared_Carrabis]

yeah, I don’t think you can turn in another dog shit outing as a starter and say enough of that dialogue. wildly delusional reaction.

[Dr. Chris Bowser @BowserVPSA]

Hopefully a proposal that fails spectacularly. Arch Madness is an iconic college basketball event. Please don’t screw it up.

[Dr. Chris Bowser @BowserVPSA]

Woke up to @MVCsports fans coming together. Arch Madness should not change. Hopefully Valley Presidents like @presidentatuni agree. @MarchArchBaker @Brett_Crawford @DrMattSmithPT @BrianDutler @SportsGuysIowa

[Dr. Chris Bowser @BowserVPSA]

This would be an absolutely disastrous decision. I remember what it was like to NOT make it to St. Louis finishing in 9th place. The league loses connections with fan bases that aren’t going to come St. Louis at all. Please all Presidents vote NO on this initiative.

[Brett @Brett_Crawford]

Absolutely not

Heading into the Phog this December 🏀

The Panthers will take on the Kansas Jayhawks this coming season in Lawrence!

The internal rift in @RedSox is blowing up. 🚨 Lance Dobbins—father of former Red Sox pitcher @HunterD_20 just absolutely torched @CraigBreslow and the front office on social media.
He didn't hold back, fiercely defending pitching coach Andrew Bailey while placing 100% of the blame for the team's struggles and pitching limitations on the analytics department. According to Dobbins, "people behind computers" are dictating the pitches, forcing the coaching staff to operate "with one hand tied behind their backs."
He completely slammed the organization's heavy reliance on Driveline, calling it "the answer to everything, but winning games!"
Most notably, he pointed out that the constant wave of pitcher ailments and hitter wrist/hand injuries (like Roman Anthony's torn finger ligament) isn't "pure bad luck"—it's a direct byproduct of the front office's rigid, spreadsheet-driven training methods. Meanwhile, Hunter Dobbins was traded to the Cardinals for Willson Contreras and immediately found success after throwing his sinker again.
The pressure on Breslow's analytic-heavy culture is officially reaching a boiling point. 💣

The Red Sox are at the point in their storied franchise where they need an English speaking man to interpret for another English speaking man. What has happened to my beloved baseball team? How did we get here?

[On3 @On3]

NEW: Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko on College Football Playoff expansion talk:

"What does Mike Elko want? 40. Then I won’t get fired. It's ok to make it hard to get to the playoff."

Elko continued: "None of us are answering for the good of the sport. We’re answering for the good of ourselves."

Kyle Schwarber is on pace to hit 66 homers this season.
And generate 110 runs
110 RBI
107 walks
26 doubles
He's hit 10 homers in home games this season.
The Red Sox have 11 homers in home games this season.

[Alan Saunders @ASaunders_PGH]

The Pittsburgh Zoo is clearly in win-now mode.

[Bill Koch @BillKoch25]

Saturday's forecast has been poor all week. The Red Sox could have postponed the game this morning -- similar to what Triple-A Worcester did.

Boston instead allowed fans to absorb costs of commute, parking and concessions before deciding 10 minutes before scheduled first pitch.
