Pat Forde:  There is smoke from the IARP chimney: Some 132 days after North Carolina State had its infractions hearing, a ruling is set to be released this afternoon.  This is the first ruling from the IARP, the infractions "off-ramp" that also has the Kansas, LSU, Louisville, Arizona and Memphis cases in its pipeline. Suffice to say there is huge curiosity in college athletics to see how this goes. Also worth noting: there is no appeal.

For some reason I read IARP as AARP and wondered if Brad Davison found a 15th year of eligibility.  Man, I need a break.

One year probation, 1 year show-cause for Gottfried. No post season ban, according to ESPN.

Doing some afternoon perusing on the KenPom homepage to kill the work clock and.......the just-short-of-being-in-the-2021-final-four Oregon State Beavers are......1-10? That'll count as a yikes from Hova.

Back-to-back 1 point losses to Samford and Princeton, 6-point loss to Tulsa, 15-point less to Penn State, and a 7-point loss to UC Davis are the highlights in Corvallis.

Yeah things are not looking so hot at the old alma mater! Haven’t seen much of them this season but they returned several players from last year, don’t know what’s up with them!

Is that a live game look?

5 min before.   5 pm tip-off against a NAIA team with students on break.    ISU isn’t known for attendance anyway but this is low.    First time I’ve been back to a game here in 18 years

That’s what we Trees call the “Sycamore Sellout”.

I flipped to the game in time to hear Walton say that 'winter solistice is the best day of the year because it means that daylight is starting to come back'.  Felt like I was entering in a room in mid conversation of a conversation I didn't want to hear.

For me it's when he says conference of champions when talking about the Pac 12.

There has to be a "Ward.  Aren't you being a little hard on the Beavers?" joke in there somewhere.

As an alum, class of '70, even I would call that sparse. Come to think of it, that was probably the last time I went to a game, although I did see a John Mellencamp show there sometime in the early '80's.

Not if you are meeting up with old friends you haven’t seen in along time 

lol, swing and a miss at a joke on my part. I was joking that you were laying down taking a nap from the picture orientation. Oh, well, sometimes jokes just fall flat.
