Off topic: LIV, PGA and Euro Tours merge.

After the all the bad blood and condemnation, I guess money talks, even Saudi money. And the PGA players are pissed. The hypocrisy is frankly, stunning. What's next, the NBA partnering with a country like the UAE?

Would Have Been Nice…

to be part of the excitement of big time football. The travel might be demanding, but the breath of excellent teams playing in great stadiums…with the tradition…well, we can only watch and wonder.

And we have to recruit against this.

New Commit DB Khari Reid

This appears to be the first "trust the staff" commit from the weekend when you look at his profile (I personally like Aiden Black a lot).

Looks like he's a S for us. Basically all his film is at CB and the majority is him laying absolutely vicious hits on dudes, so a move to S makes sense.

Welcome Khari!

The Athletic "Why don’t more FCS head coaches get Power 5 jobs?" Including Troy Taylor

Good article on the challenges of FCS coaches when they get FBS coaching jobs. https://theathletic.com/4568079/2023/06/01/college-football-head-coaches-fbs-fcs/
A few quotes from Troy Taylor in the article. Best one: “At the end of the day, it’s really about building a culture and a staff and players that really like playing for you,” Taylor said. “And then the big thing is ultimately player development. Those are the things that have allowed us to be successful, and we will continue to do.”

Softball-No. 9 Stanford SB advances to WCWS semis with win over No. 7 Washington (Monday game hub(s))

Great wins

Fun to watch baseball and softball today.

Wow, what polar opposites.

Dumb questions about softball:

1. How come 65 mph pitches in softball, particularly given that the softball has a much bigger sweet spot for a hitter, aren't far more easier to hit? And they don't even have a mound. Is it because the much shorter difference makes it harder to react?

2. Why do pitchers wear a mask?
