Non Bobo: Stegeman

Am I the only one who thinks are court is way too dark colored as well as the whole Coliseum? I thought jt when I went to a game and when I watch it on TV. We have a great team. I am fine with the Steg’s outside appearance and am not one of those who say tear it down, but dang it has to be one of the most depressing places that make you want to sleep. It honesty makes watching our home games less exciting.

On the issue of student loans, Biden is more Christian than 99% of the Republicans.

The student loan debt issue is almost entirely due government backed ease of access to funds with nothing more than a signature required to secure the loan. Colleges have jacked up tuition rates and fees to and swelled staffs with staff and teaching positions that literally only have no market value outside of academia.

This gets really simple, make money harder to get using a vetting process for loans that applies ratios that take total debt and ability to repay into account and you’ll see college demand drop until the schools bring their costs in line with realistic market pricing conditions. Systems like Hope can fund tuition for students that perform academically.

If we gave away government backed money to buy houses with no strings to anybody who could sign their name like they hand it out for college, tax payers would be on the hook for massive under performing loans while housing prices themselves would be inflated beyond the ridiculous mess we see today.
I think we saw something similar back in the 90s where the government let people buy houses without down payments. It was a mess when all of the foreclosures started flowing in.

How would you handle our bigs minutes going forward?

Today:

Newell- 33
Godfrey - 23
Somto - 13
Abson - 10

It’s tough because they are 4 completely different players that provide something the others don’t

Every time I start to think one of them should lose some minutes they start playing well

Asa is huge on the offensive boards and can shoot from deep, but it seems we sometimes struggle to set up looks for him

Godfrey is a solid defender and has good moves in the post, but will completely disappear on offense occasionally

Somto is a beast who can put out highlight dunks and blocks, which is huge for momentum, but he’s also a turnover machine and occasionally busts on defense. He’s kind of a liability on both ends of the ball

Abson is pretty solid all around but isn’t necessarily gonna dominate SEC bigs

Also, I’m not sure if we are a program that promises playing time to recruits, as that may be a factor:

Based on what I’ve seen so far, and assuming 80 minutes per game, I’d go

Asa: 32
Godfrey: 18
Abson: 16
Somto: 14
