    Dangit

    I expect someone to trade up here to take Williams
  3. Rex Buckingham
    Glad they got that right

    Word is the Jets offered Fletcher Cox, Mychal Kendricks, and several draft picks for #2. I think Kendricks is definitely on the block (ILB depth chart also has DeMeco Ryans, Kiko Alonzo, and Brad Jones, all who they just either signed, re-signed, or traded their best player for). And I'd imagine, they'd trade a DL if they can get further up in the draft, to possibly make a move for Mariota. Rather have Cox than Wilkerson, though if I'm giving up 7 (I'd also want their 1st and 2nd). You mean Eagles, right?

    seems low

    gotta be gone as soon as La Stella is back, right?

    Great time for his first hit of the year!

    Feel free to throw the whole state and any former residents in there. And all Illinois fans as well. The 90's are over so I rarely know they exist except here. You try hard though. Quick, let's list every Iowa NCAA tournament victory starting from the year 2000-today (since you know, the 90s are over) 2001: def. Creighton 69-56 2015: def. Davidson 83-52 wow, that was quick

    Two straight balls hit really hard for outs... Ugh
  12. Rex Buckingham
    This strike zone is a joke

    I loved hearing that from him. Basically said that it's within the rules and it's in the best long-term interests of the team so Boras needs to shut his mouth. Now if we could just get Manfred (and yeah, the MLBPA) to implement the DH in the NL we can toss Schwarber in there and dong everyone else into the L column for years.

    not sure how I feel about McDonald... I mean, I know he's a pretty good player and a good fit for Fangio's D, but with his legal issues I feel he's one step away from Goodell bringing down a big punishment and I don't want to count on a guy who could have something like that happen.
  15. Rex Buckingham
    I think he will start with the big league team. Having said that, I think if they were to send Javy down for a couple of weeks and let him beat up some AAA pitchers with KB and called them both up at the same time it could take some pressure off of Javy. Now, the problem with that would be if he goes down and struggles, it would create some serious issues. Ultimately, like I said above I think he starts in MLB, but it's an option I thought about.

    A: Mike Trout B: Edwin Encarnacion, Miguel Cabrera C: Marcell Ozuna, Paul Goldschmidt, Evan Gattis D: Robinson Cano, Mark Trumbo, Bryce Harper, Hanley Ramirez, Chase Headley
  17. Rex Buckingham
    Can only do the first part because of a time crunch, but I've got it like this: Utah North Carolina West Virginia Arkansas SMU Butler Georgetown Providence Ohio State Michigan State SDSU Iowa Cincinnati VCU Davidson Oregon

    think it's available thru mlb.tv

    Soler, Baez, Bryant and Russell all in the same lineup... I love it
  21. Rex Buckingham
    yeah, no way Murray State has an argument to be in
  22. Rex Buckingham
    I thinkk that would be a good get... Could play center or either guard spot, which could allow Long to kick out to RT maybe if they're satisfied with Garza/DLP (is he still with the Bears) at Center
  23. Rex Buckingham
    Yeah, to me the bigger punishment is by far the scholarship reductions... gonna have to hit on basically every guy to have a good team. Of course, Boeheim will probably be gone before the sanctions actually come down.
  24. Rex Buckingham
    http://t.co/VCDAnFkMpw NCAA came down fairly hard on Syracuse... Boeheim suspended 9 ACC games next year, loss of 3 scholarships per year for next 4 years, recruiting restrictions next 2 years. Some other stuff too, but those are the ones that matter for the future.

    and go After Suh to anchor the d-line? While i'd love this, I think Suh can and will get more money elsewhere, and I think it would be better to get an impact defender at 7 and try to get a receiver in the 2nd or 3rd like a Devin Smith, Dorial Green-Beckham (though I doubt they'd take him with suspension issues in college) Jaelen Strong, Justin Hardy, someone like that
