  1. I'm not watching or listening, but it's Carlos Marmol
  2. or his slightly less-limited starting duty. He had 2 good starts, 2 bad ones.
  3. Yahoo decided Sean Marshall should've pitched that inning.
  4. With the bases empty and him being that low in pitch count? Yahoo had a man on 2nd with 85 pitches.
  5. I think I'd pinch hit for Wells there.
  6. Negedu was Crean's first year, and it was assumed he was the reason Tijan Jobe was given a scholarship. Can't remember what/if any other schools were in it towards the end.
  7. Most kids gets let out of their LOI when a coach leaves/is fired. The only time I can recall it not happening was Satan down in Knoxville(and I'm not even sure of that one). The appeal was due to the Big Ten no-transfer rule, and I think they got it right. It's not a transfer, it's an uncommitted kid. I think they got this one right because of the coaching change. My hope is it doesn't open the doors for kids to go from Michigan to OSU or Northwestern to Illinois for other reasons. I like the rule as a whole. I do too. I don't see this affecting the rule itself though.

  9. I laughed my ass off when I first heard this.
  10. that's my guess. if he's going to replace him with Hill in the 7th or 8th inning on a frequent basis, you can't have him hitting 5th or 6th. Of course, it's just as likely (roughly) that he comes up in the 9th inning while hitting 8th.
  11. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Offutt won't be eligible til second semester of '10-'11 and then only have that semester, plus the '11-12 season remaining. I can't imagine him having much of an impact. But as you said, it's a walk on so no harm done. I don't know what to think about the Negedu situation, I know he's been cleared by the doctors, but I'd still be a little nervous about him. Additionally, I can't imagine he's going to be the same player he was after his medical issues. Does Negedu have to sit out a season due to transfer, or it assumed he'll be granted a waiver? Either way you have him using a scholarship through the '12-'13 season at least. For a team that's already overloaded with questionable players taking up scholarships(Matt Roth for a 5th year????) it doesn't seem worth the risk. It also seems odd to say that you like them cause they want to play at Indiana when they're on their 3rd and 2nd schools respectively. Uthoff, I know next to nothing about, but yeah he sounds less than encouraging when you consider how loaded the state of Illinois is in '11, not to mention the state of Indiana in '12.
  12. Nobody's protested yet, so I gotta ask. Is Ray Allen really going to come that cheaply??
  13. Pie had testicular torsion. Barrett had interscrotal hematoma. Judging by name alone, and considering Barrett's injury came from a ball bouncing through his legs, pretty sure I'd take the torsion.
  14. smells like bs to me. they only shoot at middle-aged women. They're just lucky Billy Clyde isn't still on Self's staff why, you don't think booze and guns mix? I don't know how they could operate independently of each other. BCG just wouldn't care for his crops being thinned out.

  16. I thought it was discounted cause the Morris twins shot out all the windows.
  17. Free agency mostly... Which reminds me someone needs to start the offseason thread. I'm too lazy to so someone get on it. Good, I was getting sick of talking about Rajon Rondo in just this thread.
  18. Pretty sure Jersey caught VD just watching that show.
  19. great work carrie That reads like the fake Chip Caray twitter
  20. Len pisses me off. He's a smart guy, but he acts like he's not when he's on the air. He's not being paid to appeal to smart fans. He'll drop in some stuff from time to time to raise the discourse in the booth, but the casual fan isn't going to listen to him reading BPro on air.
