Penn wins the Ivy in OT to make the NCAAT.

Damn. That's a trump school

 

[Icky Mettle]

Yale’s a J. D. Vance school. Of course Duke is a Stephen Miller school.

We don't talk about a Bruno

VCU would an interesting draw for the Heels.

They've never played.

I kind of put Wharton in a category of almost being a separate entity from Penn as a whole

Wharton wasn't actually Wharton when Trump was there. They took 40% of applicants instead of the current 7%. He still got a lot of help from his older brother's best friend who was an admissions officer there. It could partly be that standards are different for transfers since he had been at Fordham for two years. My understanding is that all Penn will ever say about him is that he graduated with a BS in real estate.

 

[ZenMode]

I think this is UA's best team ever. Better than the '97 National Championship team and better than the 2013-2014 team with Aaron Gordon.

Oh, there's some BS at Penn alright.

 

[finesse]

Isn't that endemic in the entire history of academia? All that discredited research has to go somewhere. NTTAWWT. if a lot of it doesn't get discredited, you're not learning anything.

Lololol that makes perfect sense. You basically had to be able to fog a mirror to get into Wharton back in the day, and that stupid motherfucker still needed someone to call in a favor.

A pound of marijuana seems like a lot. Even in California, you are only allowed to have an ounce at a time.

Do you think Oats will figure out a way for him to play?

 

[Icky Mettle]

I think this is UA's best team ever. Better than the '97 National Championship team and better than the 2013-2014 team with Aaron Gordon.

The 1997 UA team was more a team that got hot at the right time. They were 19-9 going into the NCAAT and finished 5th in the PAC-10. The following year they were a better team for most of the year, going 30-5 overall and 17-1 in the PAC-10, finishing first in the conference. I remember as a Heels fan feeling a sense of relief when Utah knocked them out of the NCAAT in the Elite Eight (we had winner of that game). I thought Utah would be a cakewalk. Be careful what you wish for.

 

[BillOfRights]

Do you think Oats will figure out a way for him to play?

100% he will play

 

[Bigs23]

100% he will play

If he was a UNC player do you think he'd play?

 

[BillOfRights]

If he was a UNC player do you think he'd play?

Nope

 

[Icky Mettle]

If he was a UNC player do you think he'd play?

I’d be all for it. And if he were charged with possessing a pound of weed in Mecklenburg County (NC), the case would be dismissed anyway with no strings attached.

Our DA’s office won’t prosecute that in Charlotte (Mecklenburg County).
