  1. God damnit. Stop conflating NIL with pay for play, everyone. Stop it. They get paid to do commercials, tweet stuff, bring people to events and do meet and greets etc. They do not get paid to play football. There is absolutely a well established market for fucking celebrities and influencers who charge money to do those things. Could you pay anyone to come do a meet and greet 750,000? Sure you could, you would also charge probably 30k a chair for that dinner.
  2. Been open a while. Fun if you are there with a big group.
  3. So the problem here isn't the players etc. Its that none of the people paying money actually give a shit about the players NIL, they are doing it because they like the team, not because the skill or market demands it. These kids are making more than Tom Brady for some things. Than Patrick Mahomes for state farm. Stop acting like this is some fair market value discussion and pull your head out of your ass. Theres a reason corporate NIL, you know the real stuff with an ROI happens at places and with players that it happens with. Those deals continue post college and are often long term partnerships with brands.
  4. How many NIL deals have you done or been a part of or read or seen anything about other than the news? Compliance has always existed, just because it's delloite who can torpedo the deal doesn't mean there hasn't always been someone who could torpedo the deal. What you are seeing now is SCHOOLS being able to offer money in addition to the collectives that were already going, and in many cases in lieu of the collective (many have been shuttered or combined with the internal AD) the reason a lot of the parity is happening now is because schools that didn't have their NIL shit together all of the sudden have millions to throw around. Its going to be terrible for them, they are going to mismanage rosters, overpay for players that aren't high enough impact, do really stupid shit to be part of the Joneses etc. Texas already has a machine, it has discipline, it has a roster retention plan, it has depth, and it has the resume for a program developing players into NFL players.
  5. I'm pretty sure this is also fixed.
  6. If there was a president that ran and gave nothing but sports opinions and went on knowledgeable rants about all sports and pop culture stuff they would win. The DNC still lives in a world where they think people outside of the people who are already voting for them give a shit about policy. MAGA has legitimately no platform. Its just whatever hate and violence shit they come up with to distract people while they ransack everything. Sure a bunch of us have our eyes open, but the people everyone should be really trying to get involved or make a change for are the ones who love in an alternate reality where none of this impacts them or they want to ignore it etc.
  7. I think you need to really take a step back and realize that you are projecting a significant amount of everything on everyone you interact with all the time. You aren't the fucking guardian of anything, you aren't organizing shit, and you sure as fuck aren't convincing people to be better or do something to catalyze change. We get it, you are pissed off and think all of this stuff that is happening is bullshit. So do a lot of people, but have some fucking grace man.
  8. The version of the forum software we are on is deprecated. The new one is just better all around. Im gonna make a test site and play with it.
  9. If you opt out you are basically done with college athletics
  10. I'm pretty sure boosters are included in the 20.5 cap because they are expected to do the stuff with learfield and the AD. Boosters are weird and aren't really a third party AFAIK Everything else is accurate. The boogeyman bag game is stupid, there are more teams that don't have to rely on outside money to make offers and now that has put a strain on people like Texas who didn't really have to compete at certain tiers. This is an overall good thing and healthy, Texas isn't and never has gotten every single recruit it wants. That's fine, this class is still elite.
  11. Most people do not think war and bombing stuff is good. Like 70% most.
  12. I guess I missed that it had already passed when I posted that. Welp, at least I have property and citizenship in Mexico.
  13. So what happens if this thing stalls and just never gets over the line?
  14. The bill is pretty far from where it started.
  15. @Brian Fantanayou may need to give yourself a timeout from this thread. You are way too worked up about it to be a driver or even a participant anymore. This isn't the outrage thread, this is the news and happenings thread. There is legitimately a thread to air all your grievances. Go there and stop coming here.
  16. Next post that doesn't talk about anything that has happened in the last 3 days is getting time off. Next post that is Jew hate is getting time off. Next post that is Muslim hate is getting time off. Grow the fuck up.
  17. Dude what the fuck is wrong with you?

  19. Any of y'all go to kinda tropical on Mondays? 1_5107619200537462276.mp4
  20. What's wrong with hookers? I misread that. Lmao
  21. pretty much every mission every single day during any of the campaigns in Europe were more complex.
  22. He's a mod and you are just a dumbass who talks shit.
  23. good way to get banned.
