Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Stop Being Poor
Rank University / Alumni Association Approx. Number of Living Alumni 1 Indiana University Alumni Association ~805,000 2 Penn State University Alumni Association ~802,556 3 University of Michigan Alumni Association ~697,287 4 UCLA Alumni Association ~670,000 5 Ohio State University Alumni Association ~600,000 6 University of Texas at Austin (Texas Exes) ~600,000+ 7 Purdue University Alumni Association ~600,000 8 Texas A&M University Alumni Association ~593,000 9 UC Berkeley Alumni Association ~580,000 10 Michigan State University Alumni Association ~550,000 Based on data from here. 3 years ago, we would have asked, what the hell are all of the alumni from Indiana, UCLA, Purdue, and Berkeley doing with all of their money? Why do their football teams suck so bad. The link above redirects to school sites, referring to "Alumni Association" for Purdue, "Living Former Students" for Aggy, "Texas Exes" for UT (refers to Alumni), and IU refers to Alumni. I may be picking nits, but I have always wondered about Texas A&M's numbers being inflated. Not that it really matters...

OURLADS does a pretty good job at tracking 2-deep for all college teams. Not 100% certain of its accuracy week-to-week, but you can get a good feel for it. These 2 deeps are as of around 12/31, so the Texas one is net of opt-outs. IU and Tech were still playing at the time. IU: https://www.ourlads.com/ncaa-football-depth-charts/depth-chart/indiana/90728 Offense starters: 7 transfers, 5 Sr, 5 Jr, 1 Fr; only 1 w/o a RS year: Sr. Sarratt Defense starters: 6 transfers, 4 Sr., 4 Jr, 3 Soph 13 players in 2 deep were 2025 transfers Texas Tech: https://www.ourlads.com/ncaa-football-depth-charts/depth-chart/texas-tech/92062 Offense starters: 6 transfers, 5 Sr, 4 Jr, 1 soph, 1 Fr Defense starters: 8 transfers, 5 Sr, 5 Jr, 1 soph, 8 had RS years 14 players in 2 deep were 2025 transfers Texas: https://www.ourlads.com/ncaa-football-depth-charts/depth-chart/texas/92016 Offense starters: 2 transfers, 2 Sr, 2 Jr, 5 Soph, 2 FR Defense starters: 1 transfer, 0 senior, 2 Jr, 4 soph, 5 Fr 7 players in 2-deep were 2025 transfers

This is not uncommon in my industry. There are some great culture places - good people, good products, etc. Pay and RSU offerings are attractive and competitive. However, there are a few firms that pay a lot more and use their inflated stock to money whip. Hard to convince a person on their mid-30s that culture will beat the massive comp. 3x RSU grant can ameliorate crappy culture - for a few years. As noted, the difference between $1.5mm and $1.0mm is significant. If the guy took $100k of that and dropped it in VTI, historical returns would provide him around $1.7mm when he's 50. Or he could buy a sportscar.

Purdue will be his 4th stop. Juco -> 2 years at Troy -> South Carolina -> Purdue. fwiw He had a 49.2 PFF rating in his first 4 games of the season. Improved a little later on.

2026 Celebrity Death Watch Pool
Shoot. Just rewatched that Live Aid performance. There was enough shitty playing to go around. Plant was missing notes. Page was high as a kite and all over the place. Collins def needed at least one rehearsal. I guess Phil's mistake - talking about it again (??) Edit to add - 1985 Cher was top-notch.

Curt Cignetti was TE coach and recruiting coordinator at Pitt in 1995. I contend he invented the notion of pairing a blocking TE w/ a catching TE. j/k https://documenting.pitt.edu/islandora/object/pitt%3A31735062136191/viewer#page/24/mode/2up- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Stop Being Poor
From the linked article: At the same time, the Red Raiders can now use transfer quarterback Brendan Sorsby as a selling point, while playing with Aggie QB Marcel Reed and star wide receiver Mario Craver will be equally enticing. I don't see USC as a legitimate threat, and Texas will still be in the running regardless. Not one mention of Manning; smh; after all, it is "aggieswire"- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Stop Being Poor
Cam played HS ball ~30 miles SE of Auburn, in Phenix City. Landing at Auburn is not that far out of the question. He did flip from Aggy to Auburn after Jimbo was fired. He had 4 visits: Auburn, LSU, Aggy, Clemson. For an NIL era signing, it certainly looks like a list of bag-toting teams, though.- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Stop Being Poor
If an edge can drop back in pass coverage, perhaps he can be moved to WR. 4-dimensional thinking?- Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Stop Being Poor

I am a Steelers fan, too, and said, "blow it up if they lose this game." Looks like that is not happening. It was hilarious that Tirico and that shit-heel Collinsworth were talking about Tyler Loop... Paraphrased: "They traveled the country looking for a kicker and concluded that Loop was made of the right stuff." Miss. I guffawed. Houston needs to call the play that got Flowers and Likely loose multiple times around 10x against the Steelers. - Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - Stop Being Poor
