By now, you have seen the insane +39 by Zach Edey in the Grizzlies win last night. Other than that being absolutely insane, it has come out that Zach Edey actually made history with that +39. Impressive to say the least. Zach Edey had a late start to the season as he came back from […]
Penn State. Florida. LSU. Auburn. All fine programs with plenty of history and, most importantly in this day and age, money. Any one of these would’ve made a fine next stop in the career path of Eli Drinkwitz. And maybe one day one of them will. For the time being, though Mizzou and Eli Drinkwitz […]

The Ducks men play this morning, and hope that the third time is a charm – and a win – at the Player’s Era Festival against Creighton.

Hello? Is anybody there? Happy Thanksgiving to you, yours, and those you care about. Even the Michigan fans. This will also serve as your open thread for Thanksgiving Day’s football.

Well, Vanderbilt didn’t impress yesterday in the first game of the Battle 4 Atlantis, but they got past Western Kentucky 83-78. That gives us a semifinal matchup in the Battle 4 Atlantis against VCU. I’m pretty sure last time we played these guys, Jerry Stackhouse got escorted out of the building after getting ejected. Hopefully […]
The Hockey Show , Canada's only campus-produced radio show that strictly talks hockey, is back tonight with another guest who has made waves nationally, internationally, and certainly within his hometown of Ottawa.

I’m not typically one to celebrate “Thanksgiving” in the traditional sense. Don’t get me wrong. I’m more than happy to enjoy time off from work and be around loved ones. However, I prefer to acknowledge the “checkered history” (generously speaking) and real origins of Thanksgiving. It’s a part of America’s very real history. That said, […]
