So, about that Paul Weir press conference. Here's a thread...
• Troy Simons transferring closer to daughter in Pittsburgh will happen, but hasn't yet...
• As of today, none of UNM's transfers (Simons, Simmons, McNeal, MacDougall) have found new teams...
Weir presser cont:
• The plan as of today is entire fulltime staff remains, but none have finalized contracts.

I'll say (Paul didn't say this) mid-May and no new coaching contracts is very weird, and I know they and their families all want it done. Not sure why it's not done.
Weir presser cont:
• Corey Manigault signed Wednesday morning. The JC transfer from Indian Hills JC committed a couple weeks ago. ... UNM is currently at NCAA roster limit of 13 scholarship players.
Weir presser cont:
• Season tickets went on sale yesterday. Weir had been asking for them to be on sale since the team finished regular season on impressive win streak and made it to MWC tourney title game. ... UNM put them on sale just yesterday.
Weir presser cont:
• The plan for now, though schedule is not finalized, is for 17 regular season home games.

• Weir still hopes to get more regional teams to agree to home and home series in the Pit.
Weir presser cont:
• UNM has filed an appeal on behalf of Carlton Bragg to get him eligible to play at beginning of season instead of what, for now, is his scheduled eligibility date of mid-December after first semester closes. ... Arizona St, Weir says, is on board with waiver.
Weir presser cont:
• Point guard is the one position Weir says he's most concerned about. He raved about incoming JC guard Keith McGee. Said he's like to stay away from having JaQuan Lyle run the point, but may have to. Said he'll also give Anthony Mathis another try at PG
Weir presser cont:
• Weir talked, at length, about his personal desire that the program returns to the Top 25 nationally in average home attendance that it had for first 50 years of the Pit's existence, but lost that distinction the season before he was hired.
Weir presser cont:
• Asked how much he pays attention to what other teams in the Mountain West do in the offseason. He said not much at all, but he can't help but be in awe of the talent @EricPMusselman and Nevada has compiled this offseason. ...
Weir presser cont:
• Weir said for right now, there's no question it's Nevada and everyone else chasing them in the Mountain West. That's not to say he doesn't think UNM can get back in that discussion this season to try and compete, but right now, the pecking order is clear.

Here’s a #thread about #judges and #judges’ opinions. I don’t want to name names. I’m hoping Twitterland will get the word out. It’s important, to that small audience at least. It’s about a lack of awareness and humility 1/
So there’s this emerging cadre of judges who write opinions that seem clever and erudite and get some adoring attention. But here’s the thing. At a conference of pretty bright academics of various persuasions and we have two things we seem to all think about those opinions 2/
The first is a little catty; the second is deadly serious. They both matter. (And I’m not naming names of judges or academics but you know who you are.) 3/

When people say Buhari hasn’t achieved anything, we’d be here to show you the facts & figs.

Let us take few of his achievements despite oil selling at an avg of $53.32pb compared to 2010-2014; of oil selling at an avg of $99.99pb.

#Thread.
For clear perspective, when APC took over power, 24 states could not pay salaries, GDP declined from avg 6% to 2%.

The Buhari govt had to extend ₦1.9 trillion to states to enable them meet their salary obligations and over ₦600bn in budget support facility.
The Buhari administration had to offset debts/liabilities inherited to the tune of ₦7 trillion due pensioners/salary arrears, JV cash calls, Paris Club overdeductions, Oil Subsidy debts, refund to states for road, contractors etc.

Today, I found out that some young people I know (ages 15 and 16) are in 'school' Whatsapp groups with teachers.

I salute the dedication of teachers who go beyond, but I think this a very dangerous breach of privacy / work-play balance, and must be stopped.

Here's why: #Thread
1) You cannot join a Whatsapp group without revealing your phone number. This is an immediate risk for minors - the room for abuse is so large I'm stunned that schools allow this. Pedophilia, sexual predation, grooming - all possible when adults have kids' phone numbers.
2) There is also risk of harassment by other kids. I remember my friends in high school (esp girls) who kept phone numbers very private, because they didn't want to be constantly bombarded.

When a teacher makes you join, there's no opt out. Everyone gets your phone number.

Response to the @OfficialAPCNg Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole by Yusuph Olaniyonu (@YusuphOlaniyonu), Special Adviser on Media & Publicity to the President of the Senate, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki.
"It is rather surprising that Mr. Adams Oshiomhole is behaving like a rain-beaten chicken, crying all over the place about Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, as if the Senate President is the apparition haunting his life and the sinking ship that he captains."
"Having decided not to join the pigs in rolling in the dirt; we would not like to be involved in any meaningless exchange with the demagogue that is now in charge of APC."-#ResponseToOshiomhole
