Re: It has come to this - Camelot is Gone
Your data-less note is not persuasive. Real numbers prove that police shooting of blacks are not in excess of times they were acting in self defense. Prompting police hatred of blacks is false, divisive and racist. I won’t try to persuade you of anything. Pointless exercise. Of course police should...

Re: It has come to this - Camelot is Gone
This odious construct of institutional racism is so 20th Century, today is not last century Jim Crow America. Effects of Jim Crow, redlining, privilege, etc., have not gone away. Neighborhoods that were destroyed aren’t coming back, maybe not even in Portland where they blew up their interstate. Pa...

Re: It has come to this - Camelot is Gone
There seems to be the notion that anything short of 100% approval of everything the Likud party does is tantamount to anti-Semitism. I agree with US efforts at humanitarian aid to the people in Gaza while despising Hamas. Call me what you wish. I 100% agree with this. Not that these are in any way ...

Re: It has come to this - Camelot is Gone
However, rising antisemitism on college campuses is such an issue that you noted a lack of expressed concern on this thread even though, reportedly, it is not happening at Davidson? Why broaden the discussion? Please explain the connection to the original topic. The discussion was not broadened. Th...

Re: It has come to this - Camelot is Gone
What I have not seen (unless you count Dr. Martin’s statement) is support from the “free speech” contingent of alumni for all manner of expression on campus without any consequences.

Re: Portal
Emory Lanier is not one of the 2007. He’s still shown as a walk-on at SMU despite his father being shown the door. He has already transferred. https://x.com/andersenpickard/status/1772711525460963561?s=61 Thanks for the clarification. I had been expecting to follow SMU more with them in the ACC. I ...

Re: Clunie Email re NIL
Market value is what people are willing to pay. If our players can find people willing to pay them more than $70k to play ball, then their market value is more than $70k. Capping their 'wages' at the cost of attendance is anti-capitalist. If we don't like the way capitalism allows some people to be...

Re: Clunie Email re NIL
Most lawyers are broke. The ones you know are making good money. NIL should have nothing to do with the market value of the player to the school. Does anybody really think that any one of our players generates over $70,000 in additional ticket sales? NIL, if an honest endeavor, would base amounts on...

How many Davidson basketball scholarship players have a fair market value significantly over the $70,000+ base pay?

Re: Clunie Email re NIL
I was told that one of our returning players was offered $300,000 to transfer.
The Tuesday night video could be informative. I don't know whether there will be a chance for Q&A.

Re: Post Season Banquet
I thought that since we are using Bobby's name, image, and likeness, maybe we should pay him for it. But then I realized that the photograpic, printing, and legal fees would eat up most of the money.

Re: Post Season Banquet
It was great to see everybody tonight. I sat next to Mike Spann, and our conversation had as much to do with basketball in our era as with the season just past. I really enjoyed the stories. I spoke with Connor Cochera briefly, and he seems as excited about coming back for another year as we are to ...
