24 zsmoke I didn't think pornography was ever permitted though
21 SpinningGamera did you say ferrets?!
21 ncohen12 He has an offer from UNC...
18 DJ Carver Yes, and that shit should be flagged
17 JHBTerp Please enjoy your daily Randy Edsall Drake quote. I hear he's quoting DMX tomorrow!
17 SpinningGamera [no title]
16 ImFromMarylandAndNobodyCanBeatMe I hope they stress the fact that first half baskets also count towards your total.
14 Scaletta I just like saying the word Nebrasketball
13 Mike S. Sure.
12 jarem yes?
11 SpinningGamera I'm going to assume this happened somewhere in the Midwest
11 Terpific Guys like this seem to be begging us...
11 MHoopsJr. Congrats to Greivis
10 Reignman3133 I just wanted to say Thanks again
10 Terptown16 I think he should just pick the B1G team that most recently won a national championship.
10 jarem andre monroe gonna eat
10 Pete Volk War damn Australian turtle
9 ImFromMarylandAndNobodyCanBeatMe Is there a way to rec this post while flagging its contents?
9 Dave Tucker What's a cubit?
9 UnoIMaMess Prince Ali? :)
9 bshock Key stretch
9 Gophermike Thus begins the greatest basketball rivalry of all time
9 KStalz The "skills" portion could not mean less to me
9 shreds123 [no title]
8 Pete Volk I disagree!
8 Wise Guy I'm always amazed about how many posts are related to arguing word choice and application…..
8 Scaletta Nebrasketball is a real thing
8 Mike S. Who's excited for some more linear regressions?!?!
7 jarem My iPhone autocorrects
7 74ak Grant
7 Mike S. ... I can't tell if you're being humorous or actually complaining about something.
7 SpinningGamera [no title]
7 umcp96 and hate for Duke
7 nmcvicker03 his wrist actually transferred.
7 Mike S. Now, now.
7 LeftCoastTerp With apologies to Bill Cosby
7 MHoopsJr. I mean I watched Michigan and PSU miss 47 short FGs last year.
7 LeftCoastTerp Excellerated?
6 TheChicagoWay Hell yea!
6 Andrew Emmer On a more speculative note:
6 Dave Tucker Winthorpe
6 NAmstrong Hope you're not too attached to your ACL
6 john.chacko Yeah, but have you ever stood next to Charles Mitchell???
6 Scaletta I'm not angry at all that you are here (you're kinda funny)
6 Scaletta Is he practicing with Stover again?
6 bshock I mean
6 terp4life2002 Best decision for Kevin. He gets to be the spotlight player at a lesser program in MN, but a good rising star coach in Pitino.
6 Gophermike Seriously...where does this misplaced sense of superiority come from?
6 Terpific This post points out we have both suffered in mediocrity...

5 LeftCoastTerp Have you seen what they're paying us?
5 Pzterp We used to rip Kentucky fans
5 umcp96 Is Hugh gonna run onto the field at Beaver?
5 HughGR So you have room for the twins then?
5 Pete Volk Ah! That's a good idea. I'll see if there's some way to incorporate that.
5 Lucky Horseshoe so your idea of logic
5 KStalz When somebody writes "Looking good, Billy Ray"
5 Fear the TurGle The Hardest
5 reborn579 It never Raines but it pours
