Re: Who should be our next head coach!

Leaving Tunka off this poll is a major oversight Tunka died in a tragic sky diving accident last November. At least he went doing something he loved. But it's pretty insensitive to keep bringing him up as an option. Time to put the Tunka rumors to rest. Here is the obituary for those who missed it....

Wouldn't it be hilarious if the Hurd showed up en masse (as in, with a way larger turnout than the U of U student section) to cheer for Bairstow and Shulga? Just had the same thought.

Re: Smith vs Odom

I prefer VCU as I'd like to see Bairstow and Shulga get the W over Utah and Smith. Much less of a factor, but also a small part of my reasoning is that I hold no ill will toward Odom but think Smith is lame for selling out to the Utes (he could have gone to literally any other program and I would h...

NCAA is now just a reality show. New cast every year you have to learn and cheer for.
That's the best descriptor I've seen. Occasionally the cast might all stay for an all-star reunion season.
Or sometimes the cast sucks and you end up with multiple seasons of "Here comes honey boo boo"
