  He was MVP for the West team, which won for the first time in several years. The West actually played a little D and Peterson was part of that. Lots to like about what Darryn put on display on a stage that was teeming with talent. There are quite a few guys who looked like raw NBA talent.

  @approxinfinity said in Staff changes for 2025-2026: Ok. Thanks guys… do you feel the absence of a GM will put us at a competitive disadvantage this off season? Do we have enough cabbage to field the roster we want? Without any semblance of transparency in this new NIL era, these questions are impossible to answer. For any public institution, all $$$ transactions should be recorded for all to see. Who knows, maybe Self and Co. are brilliant money managers.

  @nuleafjhawk the recruiting profile was different. The timeline much shorter. But the same amount of nattys. She’s at UConn women’s team. It’s a good fit. They are doing quite well.

  Update: Jackson expects to be full go by May, his doctors tell him. Good article on 247 about his recovery, what he’s focused on and how he’s managed this year. Sounds like beloved Hawk Tyrel Reed has been a big part of his recovery.

  @approxinfinity said in Bracketology: Y’all are just hAIters Is AI ready to stand alone? No. Its a companion tool. And yeah the uncertainty with certainty bit is true and silly. And I totally get the feeling that for creative stuff it is soulless. But so is Jon Scheyer. Is Duke partnered with Microsoft? Maybe Jon Scheyer bot is running Copilot, or Autopilot Beta. Good stuff. I don’t hate AI. I hate when people force any technology into a product for the sake of anything other than legitimately improving the user experience. My only point is that AI is not ready for primetime for most use cases and it’s resulting in many users misusing the AI features in products. In some cases the misuse is because users are not saavy enough to understand the limitations and the tech interface is underdeveloped to help users know when the results are probably unreliable. In other cases the misuse is because users are very savvy and know how to manipulate tech which is under-tested and underdeveloped to prevent deliberate misuse.

  Case could be made that Self and KU would’ve played yesterday if KJ didn’t get hurt. For what it’s worth Mayjay, my Badgers on line community is far worse. Yesterday they ‘forced’ me to turn the game off at the half. Wasn’t going well, but the online people were trolling big time. It is nice to be a KU fan and to be honest, “my” 1988 championship is a lifelong feelgood memory that few college students get to experience and it’s made me content to take these season ending losses nearly every year since. Although the Sox have me sad, it’s freed up a lot of time, and money in the summers to do other things that are pleasurable in the summer. I live right along Lake Michigan, 5 minute walk, and last summer I spent so many great evenings over there that might have been sitting in my lazy boy watching baseball if the Sox were decent so, football is the next sport season I really pay attention to! First world problems we all have for sure.

  Knueppel’s little bro was on TV tonight here in the Wisconsin semi finals. Wonder if their parents went to the State game in Madison or the Duke game against a 16 seed. Little bro plays for state title tomorrow. Lots of miles on the car/flier miles accumulated this season. Not sure how the NCAA sets these games up. But just wrapping up are the Fears brothers. Like the NCAA really couldn’t have scheduled the two games at different times so the parents could watch both? I’m sure there’s been other conflicts with players out there as well.

  I really like Hanni too. He spends so much time raising money for cancer. I really love watching Hawk Talk too, fun getting to know the coaches and all the players.

  @SlimShaddy54 I agree 100%. For my personal amusement, I’ve taken it even further. This year, for the first year maybe since Danny, we’re an underdog — not a horrible seed (top half of the bracket), but our team seems to be in disarray and never really gelled. So I’ve made a decision to recategorize as a Cinderella, with the benefit of providing hope and smug satisfaction for every game we win, with little/no surprise or disappointment if we lose. This is going to be hard to pull off. Wish me luck.
