Not limited to basketball but the Big Ten quietly proposed legislation last year that would allow players in every sport to transfer once in their careers without sitting out a year in residence at their new institution.

A popular rebuttal to this proposal is to allow a player to transfer one time without losing a year of eligibility or using a redshirt, but still sitting out that first year, so they technically get that year back at the end of their time at the school they transfer to.

I don’t want depression or mental health issues hold a kid back from the path he was destined for. What I’m supposed to hope he struggles with this for years until his chance to be at the top of his profession has passed him by?

I believe I misunderstood your intent there, hand up my b.

Penn up 6 with 9 sec left. Fouls a 3 pt shooter and he hits it. Harvard down 3. Harvard misses ft and gets the rebound and misses a game tying 3. Penn holds on. Delivering

Saw a news story about a mail carrier that rented a storage unit to put mail he didn’t deliver.  Makes me wonder how USPS has so much time for college basketball. Or how many storage he might be renting.

Was that recent? I had a cousin do something similar as he battled depression.

That’s weak sauce. Anybody that does that to people’s mail don’t have have pride in their job. That’s a major federal crime. Simple answer for having time for college basketball is that it’s my hobby and I make time for it. Also having an awesome wife that understands my college basketball obsession helps. Rhode Island up 22 with 18:35 in the second half

Bowling Green up 1 at Buffalo. Even when the main event game of the night is a blow out there is always good games to be found

I know you were. I’ve seen reports like that and it make me sick to see news articles like that. There was a carrier in Indiana somewhere a couple years ago that had a months of advertisements in his garage. All because he was too lazy to do his job.

Bowling green steals one in Buffalo. They are 8-1 in the MAC
