One of my pet peeves is when developers have a plot function that outputs a ggplot which allows you some theming options but no ability to change point/line colors, etc. Anyways I've used your method, but another option is to use ggplot_build (in a similar manner) to style these plots.

Never seen anything this bad on IU's side of the bracket.

I mean how many responsibilities do punt returners have? Drives me nuts when they down inside the 10.

I might check out that data to confirm, but from my recollection, IU started making football a greater priority when Kevin Wilson got there. I'm not sure he gets enough credit in that regard.

Thank goodness. They need another one though. Also, this guy is a guard, so I don't know what they're going to do if Carter Smith goes to the NFL. IU could have a pretty young o-line room going into next season.

Benson is pass protection against talent DEs is still a liability. IU might want to get Ajani in there.

Sounding like a bit larger than that from IU fans that are there, but that could be because fans segregated into different areas.

That's a big one. Along with these edges they got, I'm really excited about their defensive line next season.

Can't remember the last good punter we've had. I guess other teams are hitting on these Aussie punters which must be part of the reason we keep signing them, but it hasn't been us (IIRC).

You think OSU is losing this badly mostly because of rust? Bain just looks like a monster to me, and that monster is taking advantage of an offensive line which is probably OSU's greatest weakness. I'd say there is rust, but I think the OL quality is primary cause for this first half thrashing.

Sounds like you use dbt with some regularity. Any concern about dbt labs merging with Fivetran?

I noticed you're using the terms "reference table" and "fact table." Are you using dimension modeling for your database and reference table is another name for dimension table?

Our defense almost always shows up (2nd half at Penn St might be the only time it didn't). I think Bama better stop the run at least as well as OSU or IU's offense could roll.

To make it flow from left to right, you have to interchange x, y, xend, yend and add negative signs.

Btw if anyone is looking to do this in {ggdag}, it looks like layout = "sugiyama" gets it done.

Whether it was you or Claude, nice work figuring out how to aggregate to those H3 cells. Thought maybe I could shorten the code in that function, but nope. Also, would've thought that aggregating would be something in the docs, but I couldn't find anything while skimming {h3o} or {h3jsr} docs.

I hate reading code that uses it. It makes it more difficult to find assignments. Instead of just skimming the left side of the script, I also have to look at the right side and find the end of piped code.

Friendly's book is also online. (It's posted at his uni, so I assume it's legal.) See Ch.11.
