    I stand corrected. I forgot about that. I think that means our worst home win is something like 18 points. With our remaining home schedule, we should go undefeated at home this year. There are definitely some tough home games, but no Auburn, no Bama, and no Kentucky. Not even Mississippi State. We may not win them all but we will be favored in all of them for sure.

    Yep. Neutral site. It was anticipated to be a quality quad matchup because of that, and USF having won 25 or 26 games last year. Didn't pan out that way, although USF seems to be slightly improving now.

    Yes our home schedule is as favorable as our away schedule is unfavorable - we have a brutal away schedule. We need to win the winnable games like today. Would love to give Cal a solid beatdown.

    How do you like your calamari prepared? I like salt and pepper calamari from yummy house or a couple of other Chinese restaurants.

    I had some great squid (calamari) in Korfu. When the owner found out I was from the University of Florida and saw Nick C play college ball we talked basketball for hours over free ouzo.

    I had some fantastic salt and pepper squid in San Francisco.

    I was pretty unaware of Korfu until watching the BBC series, "The Durrells in Korfu." Very entertaining show.

    believe it or not I like a little hot sauce on mine. Salt and pepper is always quite good, especially if it's nice and crispy

    I think Arky wins it, but it'll be close.

    It has to be crispy, and the calamari needs to be tender. The various Yummy House’s make a good one.

    I make a delicious squid salad in the summer. Red onion, celery, grape tomatoes, kalamata olives, flat leaf parsley and a lemon juice, rice wine vinegar and olive oil dressing. Cool dinner to end a hot day.

    Nolan Richardson could attract great players to Arky. So could Eddie Sutton. Is World Wide Wes not working for Cal anymore?

    I don’t know if he is. Even if he is I think with the NIL, WWW doesn’t have as much power anymore. Nor does Cal at Ark vs UK. The money trail is out in the open now, anyone can throw money at top talent. He and Cal aren’t the main pathway to the NBA they use to be. I’m sure they made 10s of millions on that pipeline over 15 years. Now Cal is at a lesser school and has to rely more on his coaching “ability” than cheating.

    Recruiting to Arkansaw is much different that recruiting to Kentucky. Cal will never again be the recruiter at Ark vs UK.

    Further, he has never really been an "X or O's" type coach. I see his imminent breakdown and fade away in his near future>
