Yes.

Two untimely droughts and a furious SDSU charge in the 2nd half was enough for the Bunnies to continue their dominance against UND, taking down the home team by a single point. Now UND take their show down I-29 to take on Omaha, a team they have historically struggled against. About Omaha: The thing about Omaha is that they have a lot going for it as a basketball program: It has a nice arena, it has a great area to recruit from, the department is willing to invest and help Omaha get to the best that they can be. So you could imagine the frustration of the last two years where Omaha has finished near the bottom of the league. After peaking in 18-19 with 21 wins and a spot in the Summit League Final, the program starting to fall on harder times, 16 wins in 19-20, then 5 wins in 20-21 and then in 21-22. It was finally enough for the AD to move on from mainstay Derrin Hansen and hired Chris Crutchfiled, a former Omaha player from the late 80s and early 90s. It wasn't like the cupboard was bare for Omaha, they had 1 extremely nice piece to build around in Frankie Fidler, who exploded onto the scene as a freshman. The non-conference wasn't anything to write home about, although two of their 3 non-conference wins d1 wins are against teams who are currently leading or tied for the lead in their conferences (UL Monroe and Southern). So far in the Summit, they held serve against DU at home and got a rare road win against Western Illinois. They nearly pulled the upset against Oral Roberts at home, losing by 3. They are your typical team under a 1st year head coach: trying to One thing to notice about Omaha right from the jump: they are young. Lots of sophomores and freshman that are contributing up and down the lineup. If they can keep this core together... they can be a problem in a year or two. About Chris Crutchfield (1st year, 6-11 overall, 2-3 Summit. 50-46 overall as a head coach). Coach Crutchfield has been coaching basketball for nearly 30 years, most of which has been as an assistant. He started his coaching career at the place he played at: Omaha. He has since made stops at UTSA, Tyler JC, NMSU, TCU, ORU, Oklahoma, Arkansas, East Central, and Oregon before finally getting his first crack at coaching a D1 job. He did have some head coaching experience, with two years at Tyler JC and 1 year at East Central. So far, he has trying to establish his culture and has assembled a nice young nucleus of players. If he can hold them together, there is no reason why Omaha can't finally tap into their potential as a Summit League Power. Key Player: Frankie Fidler (6'7 Sophomore Forward) Underneath the Mayo/Bruns debate for best freshman, one could claim that this guy should have gotten a little more of a push for the award. The Sophomore from Bellevue burst onto the scene last year, averaging just under 13 points a game and shooting around 43% from 3. He saved his best for the end of the season, scoring 35 points in a game against UND last year and 34 against SDSU in the Summit League Quarterfinals. While his shooting numbers are currently down from last year, he has made up for it on the rebounding and assist ends. Since conference play has started however, he has really started to find his groove. UND will have its hands full with him. Keys: 1) Keep Omaha off of the free throw line 2) Find a way to get consistent scoring 3) Get the freshman going The Call: Mavs 74-64 No explainiation needed. UND plays Omaha. We know how this ends.

Fair point. I kept my list exclusive to people who played at the 1 and 2 spot (Troy was a 3), but your point still stands.

Or Q, or Geno, or Webb, or Anderson.... need I go on?

The Packers are in a rock and a hard place with Aaron. They didn't have the guts last year to tell him: Sorry, we are going with Love. I don't think they will have the guts to do it now. Every person kept talking about what if GB made the playoffs from a 4-8 start. Not enough of them were asking during that lead up to the Lions game... well what if they don't win? They better hope he says: I'm ready to hang it up. The problem the Packers have is that the North is getting better next year. Lions will be a trendy pick to win the North next year, especially if they continue to add to their defense. The Vikings aren't going anywhere and if they can fix their defense, they will still be a threat. The Bears have the #1 pick with 120 million in cap space. If they play their cards right this offseason, they could make a charge.

If the Twins offered what they were offering for him, yes. Walk away. Giving him a 13 year or 12 year contract with guaranteed money is, to be honest, stupid. The fact it is only for 6 years at minimum, it makes it tolerable/reasonable. I hear the argument that the Twins should have used the $$$ for pitching. Okay, name one pitcher* in the open market that would make the squad better. *Well, there is one out there... but no one is going to touch him with a 100 foot pole.

Of course... I'm sure there will be an appeal

Was wondering when we would hear on this.

6 at 200 is fair. Plus there are ways to extend the contract if there is success after the 6 years.

Well... that was a interesting turn of events. Twins get Correa after all

Must have been homesick

Having a sense of urgency.

Kitties are going to be a trendy pick next year to win the North... and for the right reasons

So lets recap: The Packers rally all the way to the final game where all they need to do and win and get in... and lose. So you don't make the playoffs and found out about nothing on Jordan Love....

Two bizarre things that the Packers have done tonight.

We owe a lot to those two. They made a lot of unpopular choices at the time... but they were proven right in the long term.

Haven't heard much about UND, I know they trimmed a lot already in previous years... but could more be coming?
