It is likely that Trump's Iran catastrophe will lead to some kind of compensation for all the countries the US has screwed (which is all of them). We would do well now to lay groundwork for seizing assets of the Palantirs and Musk fortune that enabled Trump's rise and invasion.

It’s a mark of how completely normalised the corruption & depravity have become that we barely bat an eyelid at the thought of two *property developers*, one Trump’s nepo baby son-in-law, being sent to represent the USA in peace negotiations with Iran. Sometimes it all hits you afresh.

Coach Mitchell is cooking
And undefeated on the road
That’s not a real account(look at the @)
Pope should have stayed at BYU. Better resources…better conference.
Reminder that the Biden admin was bringing us a free online filing program, but then Trump/Musk killed it before it had a chance to be expanded to everyone:
Thomas and Hadnot both being veteran guards who like getting to the paint to score, but also to create for others, I think McCarty is gonna feast on drive-and-dish 3s. His offensive game still has room to expand but he's already a really good spot-up shooter.
Corey Hadnot II from IPFW commits to Cougar MBB! Averaged over 20.4 pts, 4 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game in 25-26 for the Mastadons. Was 1st team All-Horizon League in this most recent season, as well. Orig from Atlanta, but prepped at Cy Creek HS on the NW side of Houston.
At this moment here's what the scholarship grid looks like. Not much long term change, but definitely starting to get a clear idea what the 26-27 lineup/rotation will be.
Corey Hadnot commits to UH
We are so fucking back
Coogs will be the 7 seed in the Big 12 championships and will open against 10 seed Texas Tech on Wednesday at 9 am.
UH tennis finishes its regular season 8-5 in Big 12 play with a 4-0 win over Cincy earlier. Coogs will now join the other top 10 in the standings Big 12 programs at next week’s conference championships in Orlando.
In case anybody else has also mostly just been reading these guys' names, I looked up the school pronunciation guides, and it's DEE-dawn Thomas and Del-REEK-oh Gillespie
These numbers are based on 2023-24, which means it was Houston's first year in the Big 12, which means they hadn't received any Big 12 distributions yet
The thing I love about Trump's plan to blockade Iran's blockade is that there's a whole sea on the other side of Iran, via which Trump's lover Putin has been supporting Iran that, I'm fairly certain, the US can't blockade.
Israel’s vicious attack on Lebanon emerged as the biggest threat to the Iran ceasefire. That might be intentional.
Trump always gets judged on the remedial scale.
So the Trump administration’s two goals in peace talks with Iran are:
1. A commitment by Iran not to develop a nuke (This was part of the Obama deal that Trump canceled)
2. Opening the Strait of Hormuz. (Was open before war.)
Gillespie finished the 2025-26 season tied with freshman Cameron Boozer of Duke and Washington’s Hannes Steinbach for the most double-doubles in the NCAA with 22

Thomas averaged 15.3 points, 2.7 rebounds and 6.5 assists per game while maintaining a 4-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio

Looks like Houston Cougar MBB added Kent St 6’8” big man Delrecco Gillespie after his OV this weekend. Averaged 17.7 points and 11.3 rebounds per game this past season, 1st team All-MAC and All MAC defensive team.
Will be getting a medical RS for a 5th college season after missing most of 2023-24.
Love this so much. Gillespie starting at the 4 next to a version of Jojo Tugler that fingers crossed for the love of god is finally healthy and able to have a transformative offseason like the staff is talking about. Diane and hopefully Braden East off the bench ready to start in 27-28. Stacked.
Dedan Thomas has a crystal ball from Travis Branham to commit to UH
Looks like the Coogs might've got their new starting PG and new starting 4
