its aluminum and its the rivets that are leaking.

I have a fix for it, just I'm done for the summer

I am going to build a stand for it in the workshop, flip it over and seal all the rivets with a product called gluvit.

Just slap some Flex Seal on there, boyee!

I have no illusions about what is going to happen to Kentucky when they go to A&M next week, but losses to A&M and Georgia, every game we have left on our schedule is winnable.

Barring injury we may lose one more unexpected game to someone like Tennessee or Vandy but a 9 win season is possible.

You don't lose to Tennessee ever. Get that out of your noggin.

Exactly

Eifert is cursed

Yep

Collin Sexton got paid a mutli tier package that included a $35K a year job for his brother.

Bunch of stuff coming out at the start of the trial now.


Nassir Little was $150K

Billy Preston got $100K to go to Kansas

A few years back rumor was Anthony Davis was paid $200K and everyone thought it was a joke because it was so high. Now it seems about right, maybe cheap.

Haven't seen anybody at IC talking about the Nassir payment/offer...

It wasn't from Carolina and I guess whether he actually got money is in question

From KSR
The reason Adidas gave $100,000 to Brian Bowen’s dad was to outbid Oregon his son’s services. According to Gatto’s lawyer, they have proof that Oregon was willing to pay “an astronomical amount of money” to get Bowen to Eugene.
That Adidas helped NC State get $40,000 to Dennis Smith Jr.’s family during his time at the school.
That Adidas did in fact give $20,000 to current Kansas forward Silvio de Souza. The payment was to outbid Under Armour, which was willing to pay an undisclosed amount to get him to Maryland.
That Arizona was ready to pay $150,000 – 150K!!! – to land five-star forward Nassir Little. Because of Arizona’s bid, Miami, an Adidas school, reached out to Gatto to try and raise more funds to match the Wildcats’ offer. Little hadn’t yet committed when the FBI probe hit last September, and ultimately ended up at North Carolina

Well, at least we got the most expensive one for free...

Now a kid that a lot of guys at IC thought we had a great shot at (Josh Green, who claimed UNC was his dream school growing up) just committed to Arizona. I guess these allegations against Zona didn't affect him too much, obviously...

NC State went 4-14 in conference and something like 15-17 overall, and they're going to get slammed by the NCAA for that season. That's the most NC State thing ever...

A&M is going to bring their A game tonight against the Cats, but UK has an incredible turnout at College Station. I'm sure it means alot to the players to see so many fans make it to a game in Texas.

I think UK sinks a 3 pointer at the end to win it.

wow , UK's best player doesn't touch the ball in overtime

unbelievable

Finally, common sense.

Kansas' Bill Self requested $20K payment for Silvio De Sousa

Man, that G-League proposal is going to threaten Duke and UK's streak of recruiting titles...

yea I think its going to hurt - for example , I'm guessing Vernon Carey and James Wiseman will go G-League

Ideally the NCAA would allow these kids to attend college under the baseball rule if they wash out in their 1 year contract afterwards and don't make an NBA roster.

cleaning up my email folders and I found this from November 7, 1999
