It's Gotta Be The Shoes...

I'm sure they do, but they don't "look" like they have that much ankle support...

Yeah, I thought that too. But then I realized that the strings must pull the fabric around the ankle tight. And that form-fitting material is extremely snug (from personal experience). So, I am sure it is nice and tight around the ankle. I think the point of the cleat is to make it look more comfortable and not so much tight and uncomfortable. Aesthetics are what Under Armour goes for.

Biscuit, if you play pick up basketball, I recommend giving the Nike Hyperdunks a try, Hyperfuse as well... It's the same concept and they're amazing. Best shoes I've ever had. They may be light, but it really feels like you're wearing a flexible, lightweight ankle brace - the support is great, cushioning is great, and they're so light you barely feel them.

It seems this is becoming the trend.

BTW, those cleats are awesome, UA is stepping their game up, can't wait to see what they do for Kemba if the NBA plays this year.

      TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
