@BigBlueBud Purdue just did it….

Michigan is just so so complete. I don’t see how anyone else, save maybe Arizona, even slows them down. Dusty May is the man.

@theblockspot it’s John Wooden

Is Rick Pitino the greatest coach in College Basketball history??? I think he is.

That Stanford CS graduating class of 2026 just hit the job market 394 total graduates. 23 have full-time offers. Twenty-fucking-three. The rest? 127 are doing unpaid "AI apprenticeships" at startups that promise equity. 89 pivoted to product management bootcamps they're paying for with credit cards. 52 are substitute teaching while "building their portfolio." The remaining 103 are driving DoorDash, bartending, or back home with their parents applying to customer support roles that require CS degrees Career services is telling them it's a "market adjustment" and to "stay positive" Same week Stanford reported a $43.7 billion endowment increase Two years ago this exact program had a 94% placement rate by graduation. Starting salaries averaged $185k. This year the 23 lucky ones? Average offer is $78k. At companies that didn't exist 18 months ago. Building "AI-native workflows" with teams of 4 people doing what used to take 30. The professors are still teaching advanced algorithms to kids who'll never write a sorting function While recruiters scroll LinkedIn looking for "AI prompt engineers with 5+ years experience" One kid told me his database systems professor just got replaced by a chatbot that grades assignments faster The irony is suffocating

45% of the UC Berkeley applicants from Mission High School, a school with 42% reading proficiency, get admitted because the UC isn't an institute of higher learning any longer, but instead is now another form of welfare.

Best big man on the floor. Best point guard on the floor. Best shooter on the floor.

@itsAntWright Doesn't matter. Purdue would either defeat them now or later/
