@ Travellin Dave - with a potential 2nd run at the National Championship in play you might need to refresh your Laranja sock and the Page has somewhat decent offerings on most vitolas today, along with a robust deluge of other tenskies.  Others are hit or miss on pricing with mostly misses.

In a much more entertaining game, NC State puts away Louisville 39 - 25.

Two "ranked" teams that demonstrate just how weak college teams are this year.

How so?  It was a good game.

39-25 is a good game ( I watched most of it) but mediocre teams can put on a good game against each other.  2 mediocre teams at best is how so.  Beyond about the top 12 are all so-so teams this year.  Big shortage of high quality quarterbacks and defensive players of all positions, just not enough good ones to go around right now.  Then there are the widespread major program coaching issues

So?  Where is Dabo going next year or is Clemson ready to pony up $6-8 million+/year?

They already upped his salary, he just started construction on a new house, his oldest is a freshman on the team and two other boys in HS.  Pretty sure he is happy where he is.  He doesn't strike me a a person who would jump for a million or two more and give away all he has.  Not everyone is a Pitino.

Exactly what Tom Herman said right after Houston gave him a $2 million raise and a few months before accepting positions at LSU and then TX, he sold his almost new $1.6 million home in Houston and bought a new $6 million mansion in Austin.  Money talks and bullshit walks.

True, call me a Pollyanna, but I think some men are still honest, and are satisfied with where they are.

$2-3 million per year adds a lot of satisfaction to life's dreams.  Just the way it is, big time NCAA football is a money sport now and nothing more,  all decisions are monetary based.

That said LSU would probably be at the front of the line to offer him $6-7 million except that would cost them an additional $30 million over about 6 years because of previous internal fuk-ups and Tom Herman Fuk'n them over.   Unfortunately  LSU has got some rugged years ahead unless some genie in a bottle comes along and makes a few wishes come true.

Mashing, Find something to make it code eligible with these and it would be a very nice buy at today's prices.

Just signed an 8 year 54 million dollar deal....averages 6.75 million a year.  Not too shabby.  I believe that puts him in the top 5 nationally.

I am going to have a talk with him later. if there's a problem I'll call City Hall.

Certainly up there but God only knows what the $ limit will be for next year the way things are going lately.

Guess I better get moving with the chores.  Gotta pick up two small cabinets at Home Depot or Lowes then lunch with the boy and DIL. 

Granite folks called early and they can't get out until Wednesday morning which is fine.  I have yet to even hear back from the first granite selection.
