Chris Chelios' kid is playing ... for China. "Chelios" <- the Mandarin word for "are ya kiddin' me!"

One third of the greatest photo in UND MBB history is gone. RIP Bill https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Fitch https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phil_Jackson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Rodgers_(basketball)

The only thing sure right now is: Denver will not finish eighth (mathematically impossible*). With two points this weekend, UND guarantees to not finish eighth. *Miami has 6 points with only 24 available to earn, so capped at 30, and DU has 32. UND has 29.

Um ... we lost our minds over a four-gamer (I don't count the exhibition).

If you could peel one off that group, it's Virginia, given its proximity to Maryland.

Jumpin'-freakin'-frijoles! Whodathunkit! I guess Mike will find something to ... do ... now that he's out of work.

I want Gunny Highway!

I have no problem with platooning the net if it keeps both guys fresh and winning.

Someone suggested "Regulators" for UND back during the search. Washington missed that option. It would've fit.

@HamboneSouth's video shows him as a DL, but he's listed "TE/FB" on his UND announcement tweet. And ... ?

Guardians and Commanders. < sigh >

People who live inside the Beltway Bubble?

In honor of Jacoby, Bostic, and Grimm they should've become ... The Washington Hogs Let the DC "pork" jokes follow.

I use the law firm of "Howe, Dewey, Cheatham, and Wynn." Their offspring opened a second office: "Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe." I'm here all week, try the veal, don't forget to tip your hostess.

To those who follow more closely: What's the focus today? To me it looks like specialists and defense (aside from the slot receiver over the weekend). More coming?

The only measure by which ACC > B1G is basketball or lacrosse. Academics and research it's the B1G.

The Ralph is probably open in August ...

Oh crud ... I forgot -- it's Wednesday, the other signing day this "spring". I read this first as "Why'd a punter sign today?"

I sure hope he doesn't mean the Bears of U of Northern Colorado.

I'd guess Virginia or Missouri would be offered before the Heels. And it'd make more sense for the Cavs as they'd have Maryland next door, and Missou fits right with Iowa, Illinois, and Nebraska. As much as they don't want to admit it, UNC is tied to Duke, Wake, and NCSU.

Why would they refer to a "roommate of a player" if the "roommate" was also a player? Wouldn't they just say "a player"? Clear writing would say "brought a player whose roommate had tested positive" ... "that player later developed" ... Put another way ... "Neil Eisenhut's roommate was on the trip" or "Murray Baron was on the trip"? (Swap in Valk/Smith or Marvin/McFarlane or Parent/Bobyck at your leisure.)

Right now Massey has FCS rated as follows: MVFC (Colonial, going to FBS) MVFC BSC BSC BSC MVFC MVFC (WAC, going to FBS) MVFC BSC MVFC BSC MVFC <--seventh in MVFC, fourteenth in FCS Colonial Those 12 MVCF/BSC schools would make for an interesting consortium.

How many times, and in how many sports, have we heard the biggest adaptation for players going to a higher level is the speed of the game.
