2016 PF Harry Froling picks SMU over Illinois and Arizona. No real chance for Illinois though. Froling's sisters go to SMU as well.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 25, 2016 -> 07:47 PM) Uh, if you're going to do that segment, you can't have Bo drop the better lines and win there. Yeah, Bo definitely won lol. Pretty sure Flo Rida forgot his lines.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 25, 2016 -> 07:37 PM) Fulmer didn't make top 101 for BP That's laughable.

Anyone else find it interesting that the Bears are meeting with a lot of WRs? They met with Braxton Miller today. If they let Alshon walk, I'm gonna go crazy.

http://sports.yahoo.com/footballrecruiting...016/illinois-26 21 total commits. 7 3* and the rest are 2*. Not that star's mean anything but it shows you how poorly they really do recruit.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Jan 25, 2016 -> 04:46 PM) Who do you guys think will open the show on Raw tonight???? Reigns or the Authority.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jan 25, 2016 -> 01:47 PM) Ian Desmond's OPS has gone down for 4 successive years. Last year it was .674. To expect that to suddenly change if he's on the Sox is howling at the moon. No way is that worth a draft choice. It's not a quality investment. The biggest weakness (among several weaknesses) on the Sox right is the abysmal OF defense. That could be mitigated somewhat by using Schuck consistently in late innings, if Ventura is up for it (but he wasn't last year; that may have been due partially, but not totally, because the Sox were behind so often in late innings). Given that the Sox gave up 3 young players for 2 years of Frazier, and weakened OF and BP in the process, they have to do something about the OF to at least give themselves a chance to contend. The idea of signing the averagish Fowler makes me queasy, but it would be better than Desmond. I'd still go cheap for now and get Jackson and see if he and Shuck can be used to field a defensive void. In the 2nd half last season, his average was 262 and had an OPS over 770.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 25, 2016 -> 02:58 PM) It's awful. Truly sad. HBO doing an expose on the football program tomorrow. Wonder if Cubit gets fired after that. http://sports.yahoo.com/footballrecruiting...016/illinois-26 21 total commits. 7 3* and the rest are 2*. Not that star's mean anything but it shows you how poorly they really do recruit.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jan 24, 2016 -> 10:01 PM) Hate how predictable that was. The most predictable thing that's happened all year.

Malik Jackson and Danny Trevathan would look so good in a Bears uniform next year.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 24, 2016 -> 02:02 PM) I don't think Owens is in it, is he? I don't think they'll put the title on reigns tonight. He's facing Ambrose for the IC title, right?

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 24, 2016 -> 02:01 PM) Yeah. One of the better games this year. Insane amount of lead changes. Kris Dunn will be a good one in the NBA

Great first drive from Manning and the Broncos.

This Villanova-Providence game is fantastic.

John Smoltz had Sale as the 9th best pitcher lol.

What kind of package could we see to get Ethier?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 24, 2016 -> 09:59 AM) The password was Eckstein123 http://deadspin.com/u-s-attorney-suggests-...cces-1754734603 That's hilarious lol

Although, it seems that Bray has gotten a push in recent weeks, so I think he could be a surprise winner as well.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 24, 2016 -> 09:21 AM) I'm starting to think Jericho goes heel and wins. I'd like a shocking out of the box win like Dolph or something but it'll probably be hhh If this does happen, then their writing team needs to be fired because we've all predicted this since Reigns took him out.

Today's the day! I can't wait for tonight. However, if Reigns or HHH win, I'm gonna be so pissed.

Taj was a man tonight.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 23, 2016 -> 09:43 PM) Yep. One of the worst B1G ten coaches I've ever seen. Malcolm Hill is so so so good. Too bad hell likely never make the tournament unless they fire Groce. Hill is really good. It's a shame, he has NBA talent, but doesn't have a position in the NBA because he's too slow for the 3 and he would get eaten alive at the 4.

QUOTE (ChiSoxFanMike @ Jan 23, 2016 -> 07:05 PM) Would anyone else care to share an opinion as to how I can improve my team? Maybe sell off on of your aces for a stud OFer.

At this point, something still has to be done. If we are truly in this 3 year plan, Hahn and company need to at least upgrade another position this year. I believe there is great value in Ian Desmond now and maybe even CarGo. I would sign Desmond and trade Avi and Adams for Cargo and 7 million cash.

I have a feeling Illinois is going to lose at Minnesota tonight....
