I am still angry that Miami and UNC didn't get the death penalty. Miami for boatz and hoez and UNC for academic fraud. It would have been a horrible look for the ACC, but those schools deserved it.

If he doesn't play this season, he can, and likely would, argue for negating the lifetime ban and regaining the final year of eligibility.

Not sure what school would touch him after that, but wouldn't shock me if one does.

Maybe. But then TTU could sue, who knows how that shakes out. Just because the Big12 isn't implicated in the current lawsuit doesn't mean it couldn't be in a future one. It would also take the other ADs (or whoever the representatives are they send to vote on stuff like this) going nuclear to do that. Not sure how much they'd want to open that can of worms. What goes around comes around and whatnot.

Seems this is the date for Soresby's suit against the NCAA. The date for the NCAA's appeal of yesterday's injunction hasn't yet been set.

If they prevail on appeal prior to the fall, he may be out for the season before having his day in court over the lifetime ban.

Even if he gets the NIL money, I'd bet that he gambles it all way anyways. You can't convince me that someone would do what he did without some level of gambling addiction. Well, hey, at least the lawyers will get their cut I guess.

With the clauses cited in the article the Big12 could impose some very significant penalties on Texas Tech.
Immediate forfeit of any game the ineligible player plays in
Postseason ban
Revenue distribution penalties
Ban from television and streaming
Scholarship penalties

The article said it - the only limitation in what the Big12 could do for punishment is their own imagination. They can make this the new SMU death penalty.

We ended up at Captain Zach's based on the hotels recommendation.

Hitting the creamery later today

Per ESPN, the trial date for this has been set for February 8, 2027. Which is after this year's CFP.

I've been waiting to see where this goes, because there is a real argument that he's injured by not getting to practice before this is fully resolved on the merits. While the merits might be nonsense, no one is hurt by him practicing and then not playing. He would be hurt by not practicing and then getting a ruling that he could play. You can see the logic. The idea that this doesn't get expedited at all, given the nature of the lawsuit, and that the date is set AFTER any possible ruling could have any effect seems pretty fucking shady.

"Clearly they weigh things slightly different, it's probably still ESPN's fault though."

But weights weigh the same.
And can definitely still be ESPN's fault.

Remember when Alan Tisdale was suspended for half a season because he made a small bet on the NBA Finals and then told on himself after realizing he had violated a rule?

Now you're allowed to bet on your own team's games.

Captain Zack's, Ray's Shanty, and do not skip Island Creamery!!!!!!

Their Seafood Festival in early May is pretty solid. We did that a couple times and left full.

Bill's is the spot for high end food.
Ropewalk is a more enjoyable setting outside and food is close to Bills

The Village Restaurant is another good option

Rays Shanty in New Church is more relaxed with large servings.

One problem is a few places there only operate Thursday to Sunday. Also a bunch only do dinner.
