He was not a popular hire with anybody, The Minutes included. But Haith has pushed every button astutely in a dream debut season at Missouri, taking the Tigers into the top five even after the season-ending knee injury suffered by big man Laurence Bowers.
Yes, Haith inherited a flush roster from predecessor Mike Anderson. But this group never played like it is now for Anderson. Haith has fostered a greater chemistry and produced great offensive cohesion while simultaneously letting this athletic team retain its fearless personality. Nice work.

I really like forde even more now that he's not with ESPN
He does a good job of letting fans know about more than just the top 10 teams in the polls, or their own conference.

Conspiracy theory:
wasn’t he bashing ESPN’s role in re-alignment pretty regularly? Did the Deathstar go all North Korea message control and can him?
He was one of the guys whose contract were all up around the same time and either werent reatained
or realized there were much better situations out there, mostly at cbs.

Maybe this is just my impression
But it seems like a lot of the big multimedia conglomerates are throwing a lot of money into trying to break ESPN’s hold on the sports market, including hiring away writers, and I think ESPN has realized that the casual fan doesn’t really care who the talking heads are, so they can just plug a new one in.

I think that is what ESPN thinks, and that if guys start to write anything but the company line that they can get rid of them
They have lost some really good college guys lately because of this, and cbs is all the better for it.

I half-jokingly pointed this out yesterday
But I think ESPN has made a series of realizations that are sadly, pretty much correct.
-If you have the content, i.e. you outbid the competition to cover the events, both the serious and casual sports fans will watch.
-Serious analysis doesn’t fly with casual sports fans, and serious fans will seek it out elsewhere anyway (like here).
-That space freed up by not doing serious analysis can be used to craft sports into a dramatic narrative, that will get non-sports fans to watch.

Rocky Balboa once told me, "Nothing is real if you don't believe in who you are."
I actually got rid of cable in part because of that
Or, more accurately, when my wife and I moved into our house, we just never got cable. Almost anything on ESPN that I want to watch I can watch on ESPN3. Couple that with the fact that History/Discovery/Food network have all gone to an all reality all the time line-up, and I just couldn’t justify the cost anymore.
And ESPN.com is hot garbage. The content is similar to the network, and the forums are nothing but trolls trolling other trolls.

Just say ESPN is hot garbage.
Between their obvious conflict of interest w/Mike Leach (including suspending Bruce Feldman) and the increasing of sports/entertainment programming (like I turn on a sports channel to see movie previews and interviews with actors or musicians), I hate that channel.
"When among evil companions, try to fit in." - Wild Bill Donovan
Rocky Balboa once told me, "Nothing is real if you don't believe in who you are."
The Mike Leach thing is hot garbage
in about as close to an objective sense as you can have in media, because they shaped the story by the way they reported it without acknowledging their bias. Same goes for their spin on conference realignment.
Their programming choices (outside of the actual events) is hot garbage from my (very subjective) point of view, because it’s simply not the content I want to see/read/etc. I’m sure they have an army of very bright people figuring out what to cover and how to cover it in order to maximize their profits. The real “problem” is that there are more casual sports fans than serious ones, but that’s really just a matter of personal tastes.

I’m trying to decide if I want to drop cable and sporting events are the only thing that is really holding me back. I was unaware I could get espn3 without cable. When I last tried to go there (admittedly about a year ago) it asked me for my cable provider and when I put it in it told me that my cable company and espn3 didn’t get along so I was Bruce Feldman’d.

so let's say the Mizzou game is on at 6
and you aren’t getting home before 6. Do you just have to live with the fact that you will miss part of the game? Does espn3 allow you to watch games that have already started from the start?
Busting Bill C since September 19, 2011 10:19 CST, 8:19 PDT.
now that you mention it
they air replays, which means there is likely no record feature. i just don’t miss tipoff/kickoff under any circumstances. if i do, it’s a game i can live without.

there is a tap
on the main espn3 page called “replay” and once you click that tab you can go back, I want to say , a week, to replay stuff. I had to do that to watch the Baylor game because I was travelling.

Yeah. I like that he addressed the argument re Haith coaching LMA's players
I hate the argument that you can’t give Haith credit because he is winning with LMA’s players. LMA had the same squad, plus Bowers and Safford, and they pretty much sucked last year. Haith has less talent and depth, yet they are in the top 4 in the country and may win our first Big 12 conf title. Seems to me that the fact that he is doing way more with the same players (minus 2 key players from last year) says a lot. Haith is hands down a better coach.
Well, they do have a year more of experience
Denmon and Flip in particular took big steps forward. But you’re right that this team is probably no more talented than last year’s, and Haith is doing a tn better with them.

I think what he was trying to say is some people will say he got a flush roster
and it’s hard to argue that – Ratliffe might break the all-time shooting percentage record; Denmon is (in Forde’s mind at least) a legitimate candidate for National POY; Flip is an incredible point guard; Michael Dixon is probably going to win 6th man of the year and Kim English is a stud this year.
But, as Forde points out, Haith is the one who brought all of this talent out in the group. Same group couldn’t do anything like this last year.

I'm quite glad that I was still lurking at that point and not commenting

I lurked for awhile as well.
Then one of my first posts we really dumb.
Now that I think about it, I guess I set the bar really high for myself.

Im pretty sure my first few posts were sub-par at best
Its kinda like when I used to meet girls for the first time tho, I would constantly joke about how small my manhood was so that if they were lucky enough to see it, they’d be pleasantly surprised that it was not in fact child like.

When the day finally comes that I am banned
I will probably just wait a few months and start a different account and slowly come back, like a phoenix rising from the ashes!
It has been predicted!

we crush them with... geometric logic...
and if we can’t perhaps the strawberries did exist.

Well the strawberries do taste like strawberries.

...yes I am not addressing your tacit of flirting on purpose
From little research however, I am guessing that it worked infinitely better than mine.

I bought myself a car.
It was the first manual I drove, I also learned how to drive with it in one night.
Stalls happened often at first.

Same here. Here's how I learned to drive stick:
“Here’s the keys. See you at home.”
There was some bucking in the parking lot for a while, but I figured it out and drove it to school and work the next day. I never thought it was that hard… later I found out some people consider it terribly difficult.

I’m not sure what it was that brought me out, if I figure it out, I’ll let you guys know who to lynch.

NEW BEAKER LOGIC ALERT:
“Mizzou sucks and is irrelevant because OU fans didn’t even bother to show up last night”
Ummm…hi. This says that OU fans don’t care about OU basketball this year. Really grasping at straws with this line of thought.
Yep, that's a good one

I wonder, if asked, how many Tigers would commit one way or the other.
