Don't know who the GOAT recurring character is

TNT

11:43am

I've always loved Susan's cynical, alcoholic mom.

Penske Material

11:44am

Saying you can’t gel as a team bringing in portal transfers is non-sense.

Lombardi

11:31am

Kalani isn't the most proactive coach around

TNT

11:32am

Do you really believe that's THE reason for BYU's relatively low portal activity in 2024?

Underhill

11:35am

That’s a non-sequitur. Still have 85 scholarships and portal guys…

Lombardi

11:45am

Kalani is not the guy who is going to tirelessly outwork all of the other coaches around him

kimdaddy35

11:37am

Pretty good summary

TNT

11:37am

but what's interesting about that is he was billed as a GREAT recruiter

Mayor of Cougartown

11:40am

That's why is so disappointing

TNT

11:40am

Yeah, but if my life were judged on all of the things my mom thought I was going

Nakedbootleg

It is pretty crazy that his purported biggest strength has turned out to be his greatest

kimdaddy35

Recruiting has fundamentally changed with NIL + transfer portal.

proudcugr

How much of that is you connecting dots to match your preconceived notions?

Charles Darwin

11:40am

It's eight years of watching

TNT

11:41am

By watching you mean?

Charles Darwin

11:43am

I should add though that unlike many other coaches Kalani will treat their son like family

kimdaddy35

11:42am

Ok. What is going on today. Why do fans seem compelled to accept random post opinions as fact? What do you really know

As a matter o’ fact, I did know that.

Recommendations for a home printer? 90% is B&W but some color would be nice.

CougsOrDeath

11:12am

If you are looking for cheap, the tank options for ink are a good option

jvr7

11:14am

Epson EcoTank printer. A little bit more upfront but ink is way cheaper.

Cosmodiar

11:14am

Any brother laser printer would be perfect for you.

Adwight

That is what we had been using for about 10 years but has died recently.

I would suggest getting a laser printer if you're not printing every week or so.

McDonald's food follows the unobtainable triangle theory.
