also, little-known fact..."free range" when mass produced does not equal free range.


All thats required to get a USDA free range label is access to the outside......access to the outside can be as little as a peephole that their beaks fit through but their bodies cannot get through. So...even the "free range" eggs are lifeless and dull because......theyre not actually free range at all....and they do not forage for bugs etc.

maybe it’s the power of suggestion, but i swear they taste better than store-bought
The brown ones have brighter yolks and more flavor than the white ones.
free range birds can have white eggs its all dependent on the breed. The White ones are just as full of flavor and bright yolk as the brown ones when they're home raised birds.


The store bought ones are white because they're all one breed, and usually bleached to achieve a consistent and uniform color. The store birds live life in a tiny tiny cage with 24/7 lights and no variation in diet. That's why the dull, mild yolk.
we raise bugs, too

Are we interested in Jordan Brown?

Brown split his first two years at Nevada and Arizona, before taking his talents to Louisiana, where he averaged 17.5 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game in two seasons. This past year, he earned the Lou Henson Award, which recognizes the best player in a mid-major conference.

I guess we did recently win a natty with the only true bigs on the roster being DMac and Lightfoot...and Lightfoot might not have even been a true big. Guess we had Clemence too, but that dood hardly played even by freshman standards.

But DMac and Lightfoot were known commodities who had been in the system for a combined like 45 years.

the point is, I'd like one more true big on the roster. Especially if we have schollies available. And especially at this point, a seasoned mid-major POY type is about as good as we could ask for.

I'm reading a lot of money/money/not fair/money but now Self's team has talked to him and his family to try and say things better than they did before.

"I'm working out every day to grow my business."
OK dude.

“Going to Kansas was a “basketball decision,” driven by the potential to win championships and the coaching staff’s reputation”

“NIL money was not a main factor in going to Kansas”


You should be eating that article up pdub. It has all the eyeroll rhetoric you love.

"We've talked about it. It's great because it's really helped keep us back in college," Dickinson said. "Being a good college basketball player is really fun."

If NIL is making it so that really good college players want to choose to continue to be really good college players for longer then it is a win for us all. If I have to learn 5 relevant new names and faces a year instead of three, I'll take it.

And I'll change jobs for a $50k bump in salary as would most of us let alone by $500k-$1m.

College isn't a place ( or I don't think it is a place ) for you to grow your business.
If you want to grow your business, then just start growing your business, skip college, go pro.
It shouldn't be a job where you're negotiating contracts.

But that's what it clearly is now. And Hunter is the epitome of it. He continues to bring up how he feels slighted by Michigan. And the NIL offers he got here and there. Making his decisions on the future of his business. Hence why I'm not a fan.

For a somewhat kinda in the ballpark analogy, when the NBA changed the rules for contact and scoring, guys like James Harden took advantage. There is no doubt all Harden is doing is being the best at the new environment. I just don't like the new environment. So it'd be like if James Harden was on the Celtics.

I think it's a fairly common question that young adults ask themselves - if they should skip college to start a business.

Yeah, cuz a young adult has never worked and pursued an education at the same time.

I think the majority, like overwhelmingly sweeping majority of college students, are not taking jobs in their intended degree/future business while they are in college.

But i'd defer you to the F the NCAA thread to find the argument you are looking for.

"Hunter Dickinson explains transfer from Michigan to Kansas"

I wanted to be coached by a coach, not a celebrity dipshit.
