    NCAA Investigation

    I think it’s more that the NCAA realizes it’s got to put limits on some of the egregious NIL schemes before kids get paid from them and the entire Longhorns O-line is deemed ineligible, which will not be good for the overall money-making machine. These crowdfunding groups are independent, so I...

    NCAA Investigation

    In some ways I think it may be easier for the NCAA to monitor NILs, because it’s already public info to some degree, especially the crowdfunding attempts, whereas the under the table stuff is very hard to trace. And I don’t think it’s any surprise we hear from the NCAA right after Horns for...

    Texas offers $50k/yr to linemen.

    As for Horns with Heart, I don’t see how that qualifies as athletes selling name image or likeness, because it is not the charities who are buying those attributes, but rather 3rd parties donating funds to send the athletes on charitable errands that the charities otherwise get volunteers for...

    Texas offers $50k/yr to linemen.

    We were 17th in 5 year average attendance as of last year: https://collegefootballnews.com/gallery/college-football-attendance-5-year-average-for-every-school Should be a pretty decent proxy for ability to pay some people, although one big problem is we play at least 5 teams ranked ahead of us...

    Dabo wants our fans to behave?

    A truly great coach could take urine and beat his’n and his’n and beat urine.

    Answering your questions about NIL and/or Garnet Trust

    Thank you! And sorry I didn’t realize about the FAQs. I can say that personally the more detail you can give going forward about the funds that don’t go to athletes the better, but I do take your commitment to get as much as possible to the athletes as genuine. Thanks for getting the ball...

    Answering your questions about NIL and/or Garnet Trust

    First, thanks for getting this going, as I believe NIL crowdfunding will be essential for competitiveness, although it does have to be done right. That said: 1) who owns Garnet Trust LLC? 2) is the ownership committed to no net income (ie maximizing money to athletes)? 3) if not, what kind of...

    Whoa....LSU offer to Lincoln Riley makes Tucker's MSU offer look like chump change.

    There has got to be a better way to spend $12M per year than on a coach in the NIL age. Maybe give boosters a discount on pledges if they give a certain amount to an approved NIL trust or something? How many more wins is Riley going to get versus a guy with half the salary? Quite possibly zero...

    Beamer's Same Two Plays Comment

    Doubt he would have said that if Mason hadn’t strung him along. Glad we got White though. Miracle worker.

    Auburn Did Its Football Coaching Hire Right

    Bobo lost that, right? 4 and 1 and throw it down field while Tank watches. Ha! Just one drive after we scored a TD on 4 and 2. Double Ha! Seems like Tank took a lot of breaks in the middle of the drive too.

    Thought we might want to talk about Aaron Rodgers

    Phizer’s new marketing material: “Studies show that the vaccine is 89% effective at keeping your quarantine for Covid exposure to under 2 weeks. Those without the vaccine may miss 2 weeks of NFL, school, or even be fired from work, or have their veterans benefits revoked.”

    Thought we might want to talk about Aaron Rodgers

    Interesting that of all the hand wringing, no one to my knowledge has uttered the words “I’m really just concerned that Aaron would expose himself to the dangers of Covid like that.” Meanwhile, the NFL and Green Bay Packers would like to apologize for this breach in public safety. 300 pound...

    Thought we might want to talk about Aaron Rodgers

    Because the CDC thinks a vaccine is a “preparation that is used to stimulate the body’s immune response against diseases” I think anyone that has taken a vitamin could declare to be vaccinated. But as for Rodgers, he simply didn’t answer the reporter’s question, and had the reporter been...

    Roger Goodell made $128,000,000 over the last two years

    Roger was willing to go $50 Mil per year, but only if he could work from home.

    How You Turn Things Around

    Eff a new coach. Put $10M into NILs and you might be getting somewhere. For example, committing $$$ per year for whoever the starting O line is to advertise for your business (picture 5 mean guys with crossed arms saying “we’ll take care of you” or some dumb crap like that). Now I’m not sure...

    Im glad , but why would Vandy just rush 3 that whole last drive?

    I think dropping 8 made some sense considering that earlier this year Coach Zeb looked good throwing over the top, but not so good into traffic. A heck of lot more sense than us not going up 17-3 at least.

    Time for Zeb? 1:36 with no T/O's

    If Coach Zeb doesn’t start as long as he’s able from here out I’ll break something. And then something else.

    Help me understand.

    Is Zeb still hurt?

    Not that it really matter . But this is the dumbest call ever

    Doty drives down the field and you take him out for a wildcat and that madness? Could have been 14-7 but instead the wheels completely fall off. Even still the players showed fight in the second half. Out coaches need to do better by them and their effort and not set them up for failure.
