West Virginia doesn't count towards anything for us anymore. Imagine how nice that win would've been?

If this is indeed the team that sees the court this year, look out.

Interesting interpretation/explanation. Per the comments, apparently there is precedent, too, which would strengthen the action of the order. Based on what @zippy5 posted above, I'd imagine this is a pretty strong foundation for Oriol and Mahaffey to play.

This. The argument doesn't start with whether or not DeWine/other governors have any ruling authority over the NCAA. It starts with did the NCAA make the right call in barring this class from the eligibility rule change. The answer is no which is why politicians like DeWine are in a position to try and win brownie points with the public by sticking their nose in this mess.

NCAA's statement. And yet the NCAA has governed for years to protect its own interests (money).

Their response is so flawed. I really hope the courts see through the crap and rule in favor of the athletes. Here is an interesting excerpt... "The Athletes completed four seasons of NCAA basketball during a four-year period and therefore exhausted their eligibility under the rules applicable during their years of play. The Athletes do not dispute that they are no longer eligible under the Four-in-Five Year Rule that applied each year they played collegiate sports." At the golf outing, Dustin Ford made the point that all the 2026-27 freshman committed under the Four-in-Five Year Rule but are now covered under the Five-in-Five Year Rule along with 3(?) other classes of athletes. All they had to do was grandfather in this class to avoid the chaos. The NCAA's stance is weak and we are less than a month away from the season. I hope the courts stick it to 'em for creating this mess.

Right and that's my point. We'll be able to figure out a bit more in our attack without relying on him so much.

LET'S GO GUARDS!

Wouldn't be opposed to this. Remi might be the best ST/F we have, and even if that's the case, this will give others a chance to gain confidence ripping shots on net. We need that more than anything this season IMO.

Might not be a popular opinion, but I'd like to see what others can do up top in our attack.

Let's be honest as well - Lunardi isn't exactly doing deep dives into the MAC in September/October. "Who won the MAC last year? Akron? 14 seed it is."

Tiki-Taka/triangular passes are king for a reason. When executed properly, it perfectly exemplifies the nickname "The Beautiful Game."

This ended up costing Syracuse the game. It's a risky strategy to play such a high line because the proper through ball/run can get behind so easily. Impressive finish by Remi with a defender on his back and taking the shot from outside the box. What a game. A chip shot, an absolute rocket, a saved PK, a sub-5-minute game winning goal, and a save off the line on a dangerous failed clear with 2 minutes to go. It had everything.

1) If it's a state by state situation, couldn't athletes/schools take additional action because of the unfair nature that would pose? 2) You're already seeing the personnel transition with the size increase on the roster. The system shouldn't change much considering how much of a hand I'd imagine Ford had in Groce's system. 3) We're as deep and as talented as we've ever been. Love what @Hilltopper said above - run teams out of the gym.

Goal Syracuse. We have zero urgency on defense/our side of the pitch.

If those are the only 2 angles for VAR, our camera guys are MVPs. Incredible home field advantage lol.

GOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLL!!!!!!

Holy FC27 high line/offside trap from Syracuse.

Our attack is pitiful. We don't have a real threat up top.

Evan was at the soccer game Friday night. He was walking around with Ty Pence, MMK, and Halligan.

Pretty sure he's at Charleston unless a major fall out happened.

Maybe the only guy in CBB who shouldn't get a 5th year.

While we were waiting for the group in front of us to finish hole 18, we were talking to KD and Dustin about this. Dustin mentioned this as the biggest fear because Pav at OU is in the Louisiana case, and we all know what that state is willing to do right now judicially to gain an advantage athletically. Evan is in the Ohio case and Oriol I believe is in the Georgia case, so unless there's a firm blanket ruling, it could get even messier which shouldn't even be possible given how much the NCAA screwed everything up with this class. Dustin also made the point that the NCAA's argument is the 2022 class knew what they were signing up for eligibility wise, but when he was recruiting freshman last year and they committed under the 4 year rule, they're getting more than what they signed up for. There isn't a legitimate argument to not grandfather in the 2022 class. This all would've been MUCH cleaner.
