Even though he only averaged sixteen minutes a year third year C Jakob Poeltl played over thirty minutes last night as the Spurs took a 2-1 lead over Denver. Poeltl scored 10 points and grabbed 7 rebounds. He was setting a ton of screens and it is worth mentioning he shot 64.5 % from the field...

His combine time was 4.55. He had a solid 20 yard shuttle. But his pro day time was 4.45. This tells me he wasn't fully prepped to run a 40 yard dash. So split the difference and he is a solid 4.5 40 runner which shouldn't cause any drop. Of course Coach Gruden wanted to draft Quinn earlier but...

Call me crazy but the butt hole media is stealing my material. When discussing rising ( and I mean fast) QB Daniel Jones I brought up the name Ryan Tannehill and two nights ago an ESPN talking head said the same thing. I also alluded to Alex Smith and would do you know a talking head on ESPN...

Tyler Herro just gave up any chance of returning to KY. That move ( a bad one in my estimation) just made the college basketball season 20% less interesting. KY is bringing in a white transfer but I doubt he has any NBA potential. Herro is projected to go mid late to late first round. I expect...

Nice piece on Andy. He has an unusual running stride. Like a speedy crab. Very powerful low center of gravity. Where Andy lands will be one of the most intriguing questions in the draft. The other one, unlike any recent draft, is where the plethora of white defensive talent lands. In most...

Jumping around between the hockey last night I noticed both the NFL network and ESPN were covering the draft. I think it was ESPN. On the subject of safeties even though he bounced around teams in the early 2000's Matt Bowen, who is as bald as a bat these days, made a big splash starting for the...

Bad news. Probably the greatest female basketball player in the world Breanna Stewart ruptured her Achilles playing overseas. I know these women want to pile up money but there is another side to that equation. Playing overseas in a structured league highly increases the risk of injury. In my...

How many caste laden sports leagues/ teams can they ram down the public's throats? Only so many. The AAF was an abject failure with a lot of money left on the table. Ugly stuff. http://www.espn.com/espn/story/_/id/26546883/shuttered-aaf-files-chapter-7-bankruptcy

Like Red Raider I get juiced for the draft especially when there are players of interest involved. Even though it starts next Thursday by early next week it will be a main talking point in the sports world. Some notes. S Chris Johnson is rightly sited as a pure free safety. Much like the white...

I am glad like Tyler Herro that Guy is "testing the waters" and not taking a full dive. Logic dictates Guy should come back to school to elevate his draft stock. Hell ESPN doesn't even have him in the top 100 so what is the use of giving up your senior year. For what? To not get drafted? His HC...

I will leave the Penguins comments to Don and Jack Lambert. I just saw bits and pieces of that series as the stingy (some might say boring) Islanders surprisingly disposed of the listless Penguins in four straight. I don't even think Crosby scored a goal in the series. Maybe not even an assist I...

This "best case scenario" above is the worksheet to go by come draft time. Comprehensive and not missing a beat. Well done. I grade drafts using the lowest common denominator meaning a high grade is a relative grade factoring in the caste cloud. I think last year I graded as high as an A-. For...

Lombardi called OL Gregg the greatest player he ever coached. And that was correct which is saying something when you think of all those great Packers. Below is a picture of Gregg. It represents a different era. Pre pretty black boy combine crap and black defensive backs who think it is beneath...

Much discussed and ballyhooed WR prospect DK Metcalf to me is a template for a steroid player. Has the question ever been asked beyond this website are black athletes using performance enhancing drugs as early as high school? As young black players often burn 40 yard dash times at these caste...

Zach Allen did suffer what I thought was an ankle injury I believe in their last game of the season but any information on his injury was hidden for some reason. And yes BC's bowl game was canceled due to lightening. Allen's status was demoted after the Senior Bowl and the combine. His fall...

That is strange shocking news. I think they will have to sit out an entire year now? Yes Howard is a classic ball hog. Not quite as shocking but Bob Huggins of West Virginia has been a straight down the lane caste coach for ages. All of a sudden, albeit slowly, he is starting to change. Beyond...

As noted in another thread Iggy from Michigan has declared. Murky on the "new" rules but I think Iggy has hired an agent and can't opt out but I am not positive. Tyler Herro is testing the waters but can return to school which I think would be the best thing for him. He is not ready for the NBA...

I forgot to include Danny Amendola in my mini wrap on white WR free agent signings. Danny is seemingly at the tail end of his career but hopefully he can make something out of his one year contract with the Lions. Not a caste friendly team for years. Jordan Taylor is a tall talented WR who has...

A lot of spring games yesterday. Fascinating and mind boggling. These games are often loaded with white players including the skill positions. Nebraska's two main running backs were white, Mazur # 37 and Belt #38. But like some magic trick by the time the real season starts the white players...

Rare chance to post on a Sunday afternoon. I watched the last two rounds of the Masters and parts of the first two. Any one remember that 50s/60s catchy hit "Here Comes Summer?" Well there is a new one now called "There Goes Summer." Would have been much better if Tiger bagged the last major of...

I watched the entire Nike Hoop Summit last night. In typical American coaching pattern Matt Hurt was yanked after he missed a couple of shots in the second half never to return. Hurt is a future star no two ways about it. He will announce his commit on April 19th and all the rumors point to...

I don't think players like Bosa need to "hide" their politics but in general athletes in my opinion shouldn't amp it up to the point of distraction. I am sure locker rooms are somewhat mixed in political views although I tend to think the NBA is the most liberal overall and the NHL and maybe MLB...

Kentucky's Tyler Herro, who I thought was the best white freshman, is dipping his toes into the draft meaning he can pull out if the water is too cold. This reminds me of Nik Stauskas all over again. Herro has a better court sense and is a slightly better all around player than Stauskas but...

Reading the tea leaves I think many here, including me, are hoping the Cardinals dive head first into the caste pool and grab Kyler Murray and go all caste in their other draft picks. And then disappear off the face of the earth for the next few years. A horrible "football town" if you ask me I...

While on the subject of WRs Adam Thielen and the Vikings have agreed to a four year 64-73 million dollar extension. The face of the franchise, Thielen is one of the best wide receivers in all of the NFL. I would argue he is the most graceful. A joy to watch play. This will set the tone for the...
