    Maybe Tech isn't the New Alabama?

    At this rate they may award you guys a final win over Texas this year. Invent a new no-contest win or something

    One year ago at this time, in violation of Big 12 bylaws, the honorable Texas Tech University was very busy aggressively/duplicitously begging to get into the PAC 12.

    They are intentionally not getting it. Nobody is consistently this bad at logic.

    The chants are inevitably going to happen this season and I know we will be angry with ourselves the morning after.

    I'm supposed to know what this idiot looks like?

    That's funny, I've always thought the "Tell me about ...." threads were about Texas fans shit talking specifically about the subject school and not a thread on the Texas board for the fans of that subject school to gather and pearl clutch in their "safe space." TIL

    Not the same thing. Sankey is not in charge of holding Big12 games and providing the officials for those games. That is Yormark's job. Texas is still a member in good standing of the Big 12. Texas deserves the same consideration as all the other members in good standing in every sport against every opponent. I have seen noone saying the conference should be hosting a year-long farewell tour honoring our service. We just would love for the adults to act like adults. There is a whole year of sports to be played that people like Yormark are going to get paid a lot of money to hold. It is highly irregular for a person in his position to express out loud a rooting interest in the outcome of games that he is in charge of. There is no similar example that I have heard of, yet teams leave conferences all the time (there are 8 newcomers in or on the way to the Big 12 that left a conference). Seems like you are trying really hard not to get this.

    I don't think it is normal behavior. I guarantee if the comish was actively rooting for Texas to beat Tech you wouldn't be cool with it. But, whatever, it is par for the course with this conference. We've still got games to play, we'd love to have the illusion that the Conference was unbiased in the outcomes.

    The Rams don't even have fans. Big ups to them for making the big 3 with the tiniest numbers.

    yeah, I'm pretty sure UCLA is paying whatever the Regents say they have to pay. Who told you the campuses have individual autonomy?
  16. Jasper_Jester
    Man, I hope they sold it for cash as soon as they got it. But, I wonder if they even ever got it.

    I always thought this was viewed as a mutually beneficial deal by all parties. Ole Miss boosters take in an adult sized teenager who can play football and steer him to their preferred college and get society good guy points. Kid being let down by the system with social and potentially learning issues gets a place to get his feet under him and gets help getting minimum grades to get into major university. All parties get what they need/want and everyone wins. Unfortunately, forgot about the money.

    I'm confused why Jake couldn't have played at USC if he is healthy now.

    BERKELEY / Judge's decision will shape future of aging stadium / Storied Cal venue needs upgrades, but plans anger many (sfgate.com) I had forgotten about the tree sitters.

    I read on here that University of Oregon is a community college with a tiny fan base. TIL they are actually AAU and have been top 15 in viewership.

    Man, Aggy is lucky as fuck that the NCAA is completely powerless to do anything except sell broadcast rights to a basketball tournament that member schools host. The admission of the improper benefits and obvious lie about having family money would be USC-type bad news for them. This was way worse than Reggie Bush and the coaches all knew he didn't come from a rich family so they are way more complicit than USC was since Manziel was all over social media and regular media spending his money. The IRS, however, is alive and kicking and loves to come get people like Johnny. He better start getting really quiet or he is going to get garnished for life.

    I thought the Big 12 was trying to break up the Pac to get Oregon and Washington because they assumed they wouldn't get invited to the Big10. Agree, I'm struggling to find the mutual win in Cal and Stanford to ACC. Stanford was talking about dropping sports during COVID and didn't due to pushback. I don't see how the finances work better to fly athletes in all those sports to the East Coast. Stanford Athletics varsity sport reductions: FAQ | Stanford News

    Cal and Stanford being football only members in the ACC could help them. They should have the luxury of being able to build a structure that allows them to join a more local conference for the Olympic sports. I guess I'm not sure how the ACC is made better by that deal. But, I don't see how the Big 12 benefitted at all from adding Arizona et.al. so maybe I'm missing the master strategy of this.
  24. Jasper_Jester
    Also, we have a two-game losing streak vs Cal, it will be sad if they dissolve with eternal scoreboard on us.
  25. Jasper_Jester
    There are currently two Cal Alumni starting QBs in the NFL. And Stanford has a ton of alumni currently on NFL rosters. historically, these schools pump out a surprising number of NFL players. But, living in the Bay Area, it is true that there is basically no outreach to the surrounding community to engage in the sport. It is like they are trying to keep it a secret that there are two NFL factories nearby.
