Negative Recruiting Your Own School: The aggy Screenshot Megathread
They kind of have a point about an early season loss at home when you are breaking in a new quarter back and starting a bunch of freshmen on the O line, nice of Texags to explain why Texas lost a nail biter at home to the #1 team and hiesman winner. As for why #6 lost at home to a G5 while starting a redshirt sophomore IDK, they haven't made any compelling arguments about that one.

PK doesn’t want to be an HC apparently doesn’t like the politics, recruiting management requirements it’s why Jimmy Lake got promoted over PK at UW.

Jimbo 2022: Balls To The Face
They still had Elko and Henson, Elko could field a D that would drag the O to the finish line and Henson could slap together a line to help make Jimbo’s glacial offensive have some effect.

Maalik Murphy unfucked Duke, works his next miracle at Oregon State
Malik is raw as shit, he has all the arm strength in the world so he may be able to throw it into the west deck but that doesn't do shit if his target was in the endzone.

Texas vs. #1 Alabama
You think this is the best roster we have had in decade?

Concession of SEC to aggy
For 30 of the 43 games we we’re in the same goddamn conference with them and so was A&M. You really didn’t think this dunk through buddy.

Realignment talk not going away
I am sorry but you’re a delusional homer if you think A&M contributes nothing to the SEC, that is a Texags level of a cognitive dissonance take to make.

The SEC isn’t going to 10-11 game conference schedule, the only schools the SEC want are locked up for 10 years, nor are the Big 12 or ACC going to 10-11 games. The only reasons that ND is going to join the Big 10 is purely because of money, the SEC and the rest of CFB are going to oppose the Big 10 in trying to create the conditions that would force ND into the Big 10.

Nope, ND actually pushed for this last year before the Alliance torpedoed it. The driving reason the ACC voted against the playoff expansion was because they wanted to make it hard for ND to qualify and thus could be pressured into joining the ACC as a football member. ND was just as pissed as the SEC was when expansion got shutdown last year.

Well considering his bold prediction on Michigan last year, we should win the Big and make the playoffs.

Notre Dame already pretty much agreed to this before the alliance torpedo the CFP expansion.

If you lose all the auxiliary channels and carrier fees that seems like a huge danger to the Big 10 with them have half of the conference filled with dead weight, then can't you run into the issue of you having too much inventory? OSU vs UM or USC vs PSU is going to be worth it's weight in gold, but what the hell do you with UCLA vs Purdue or Rutgers vs Illinois? Stick them on a subscription BTN streaming app? They are going to get a fraction of a fraction of people to sign up in comparison to being able to force it on everyone in LA, NY, NOVA.

That doesn't really address my question, a huge amount of the value of these media deals is specifically because they can charge people who aren't actually watching. The BTN gets to charge 1 dollar to 20 million households for Rutgers vs Maryland even if only 300k actually ever tune in. So my question is if that model dies and is then purely then streaming advertising value of your product. What then?

In the big picture, what happens if the carriers start hacking away at networks? If in 10 years Comcast, Spectrum, Directv etc, say 70 percent of our subscribers only watch Fox News, sitcom reruns on TBS and murder mysteries on oxygen so we are going to start dropping expensive sports packages like BTN, ACCN, SECN, or even bigger they drop things like FS1, CBSSN, ESPN 3/U and still charge $75/month? With the mentality of "Whatever small amount of subscribers we lose will be made up with the increase in margin." This seems like it would be a major blow to these media deals, and would be a massive shotgun blast in the stomach to the Big 10.

This is one of the stupidest fucking comments I have ever read. While the Big 10 leverages media deals larger than the SEC the SEC still beats the Big 10 in actual athletic department so funding a roster would still favor the SEC. A Highschool draft is literally the fucking stupidest thing I have ever heard not only would absolutely nobody ever agree to it, even if they did agree to it, it would be outright illegal as it’s an antitrust violation.

No don’t post irl photos of surly’s denizens. I already have a mental image of what most of the regular here look and sound like and I don’t want that ruined by reality.

At a point spending hundreds of millions of dollars to get an extra year or two in the SEC doesn’t make economic sense.

Yes, long established legal precedent of leadership being able to void legal contracts, how have we not taken this course of action.
