There's a new word to me.

That being said, no, it's the athletic frisbee game. I played for UNC in college.

frolf is frisbee golf.

I believe it's huge in the Pacific NW. There are definitely a few courses in my home area as well.

I've played disc golf before. Frolf sounds like a less formal version of that.

No idea. They might be the exact same thing. I've never played. I have a cousin who plays pretty seriously in Washington.

Never too early for 2020 Brackets, I guess?

MSU, Duke, UNC, and Kentucky the #1 seeds. #6 for OSU; Michigan down to a #7.

I'd be stunned to see UNC a #1 next year. I'm guessing 2/3.

OSU at a 6?

Vegas disagrees.

Ohio State knew about the abuser, and did little.
A now-dead Ohio State team doctor sexually abused at least 177 male students over nearly two decades, and university officials knew what he was doing and did little to stop him, according to an investigative report released by the school Friday.

Dr. Richard Strauss groped, ogled or otherwise took advantage of young men from 1979 to 1997 — nearly his entire time at Ohio State — while treating athletes from at least 16 sports and working at the student health center and his off-campus clinic, investigators from a law firm hired by the university found.

The report on Strauss, who took his life in 2005, could cost Ohio State heavily by bolstering the lawsuits brought against it by a multitude of victims.

The findings put Strauss in a league with gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar of Michigan State University, who was accused of molesting at least 250 women and girls and is serving what amounts to a life sentence. Michigan State ultimately agreed to a $500 million settlement with his victims.

In issuing the report, Ohio State President Michael Drake offered “profound regret and sincere apologies to each person who endured Strauss’ abuse.” He called it a “fundamental failure” of the institution and thanked victims for their courage.

That's not good.

I really don't understand how people can sit back and do nothing about shit like this. If you know about it and do nothing, you might as well be doing it.

Former michigan star, Juwan Howard, in talks to coach team.

This is interesting because I think all of his wins while a player were forfeited due to violations by he and his teammates.

Apparently not all, but many...
The school vacated the entire 1992–93 season and every game it played from the 1995–96 season through the 1998–99 season. This included the 1997 National Invitation Tournament title and the 1998 Big Ten Tournament title. It also vacated its two Final Four games in 1992 and its entire NCAA tournament record in 1993, 1996 and 1998. There is a difference between forfeiting a game and vacating a game; a vacated game does not result in the other school being credited with a win. This included virtually the entire career of Fisher's successor, Brian Ellerbe. However, it did not include all games that Webber played or was eligible because all but the final two games of his freshman year were retained.

WTF is that? The avatar's they're using... UNC's coach being "Allison".

Hilarious.

Our team is UNC Darkside. There was a debate (I was one of the founders) as to whether it was "Pink Floyd" inspired, or "Star Wars"... in general we used a lot more Star Wars references than we did Floyd references.

OSU's avatar is pretty boring. Is that the school seal or something?
