Arm length doesn't matter for a tackle as long as the quarterback doesn't have tiny hands

Arm length doesn't always dictate everything. If you have a guy that's got short arms that's playing tackle, it's not the end of the world unless maybe you also have a quarterback with tiny hands, in which case it's like synergy factors. Right. Where if the guy with short arms can't block the guy and then the guy with tiny hands gets hit, more likely to fumble.

Whether specific arm length correlates to fumbles based on QB hand size is largely theoretical and difficult to prove or disprove.

Betting the over on Alabama basketball is a cheat code

Alabama by the way is a cheat code if you want to get in on it. It's just betting their overs. They just never stopped missing. This has been like, oh, two weeks now they're over under for the first half was 45 and a half points last night. They scored 69 in the first half.

The 'cheat code' status of a team's over is based on a specific run of games; eventually, Vegas adjusts the lines.

Arkansas is playing great basketball and John Calipari making the Final Four would be a fantastic tournament storyline

Arkansas has been playing some really good basketball. They lost that game in double overtime to Alabama where they basically ran out of guys. But since then, they've won five of six now... Cal [Calipari] in the Final Four would be great. Fucking great.

Arkansas finished the 2025-26 season strongly but the Final Four result depends on the upcoming 2026 tournament.

The Jets fleeced the Titans in the T'Vondre Sweat for Jermaine Johnson trade

I think the Jets fleece the Titans. I think it's a win-win, win-win win plus for the Jets. I'll say win plus... So they traded for [T'Vondre] Sweat. He has two years left on his contract. Jermaine Johnson only had one year left on his contract.

The trade's success depends on the long-term production of both players relative to their contract status.

Nate Oats needs to teach his players to never let the police look through their phones

Let the Aden Holloway situation be a reminder to everybody that you don't have to let the police look through your phone. I actually point the finger at Nate Oats for this, because Nate Oats, you gotta do a better job of explaining the first through fifth amendments to your players. Given the history that you've had... day one you should have a, get the guys from Morgan & Morgan to come in and be like, 'Do not talk to the police if you're in trouble. Shut the fuck up.'

This is a satirical advice piece and commentary on Nate Oats' coaching responsibilities.

Every major college coaching opening should start by calling Brad Stevens and making him say no

You gotta make him say no. You gotta call Brad Stevens and make him say no. I will personally never stop saying that. He probably wakes up every morning and says no. Voicemail just says, 'Thank you so much for the consideration, but it's gonna be a no.' It would be shocking if he ever took another college job.

This is an opinion on coaching search strategy.
