  1. Their assholes are probably more generally sensitive than others... for reasons.
  2. The NFLPA has the agreement with EA and they do pay all of their people for being in the game. The payouts are much larger, but not earth shattering. I have heard figures as high as 5-10K. Bearing in mind there are far fewer players and Madden has a much larger player base. And of course, there are players who receive more, particularly cover athletes. Edit: Immamac may have a better figure. I havent seen it in a while.
  3. This guy clearly doesn't know how video games work. Projects are generally segmented by studios. EA could shut down an entire studio and have it not affect other projects. He even said himself that other employees would be moved to other ongoing projects, meaning College Football could actually benefit from this by getting more manpower. I imagine the initial work of getting all of the minutia for each school loaded into the game is pretty overwhelming and can't really be solved by anything other than brute force.
  4. This is really a very simple thing that the media is going to take and run with for no other reason than it is the offseason. He has declared publicly, as has his agent and parents, that he won't do any NIL deals until he is the starting QB at Texas. Is he the starting QB at Texas? *checks notes* no. I respect the decision. It also does increase the desire to see him in the game, and I could see EA going after him next year with a more lucrative package if he decides to not opt in again. Besides, I anticipate that thousands of people are going to create a backup QB at Texas named Starch Tanning.
  5. Worthy and Mitchell underperformed in our offense? Worthy went for 1000 yards last season and Mitchell had 845 yards and 11 touchdowns. All in a conference where every defense is designed to take away the deep pass above all else. But don't let facts get in the way of a good story I guess.
  6. You are doing this all wrong. It is the deviant behavior we want to applaud.
  7. Are they doing that joint B12 Pro Day for football this year or does that start next season?
  8. Imagine Miami taking him and pairing him with Tyreke Hill
  9. 4.53 is a great time for Watts. I bet that gets him drafted.
  10. Oh they may be at the moment until the spring portal opens.
  11. His formula is basically to give as much weight and relevance to their close losses as he does with our close wins, as if none of them ever occurred.
  12. He was ready to hobble through a wall after Joey’s pregame pep talk.
  13. Quality parting shot right there, even if it is made up.
  14. If Tyler Owens runs the fastest 40 at this year's combine, someone is going to lose their mind and draft him 3 rounds too high. That type of size/speed ratio is unheard of. He isn't a particularly good football player, but he is a freak athlete.
  15. Next time 1-800 Flowers puts out a great QB list we are golden.
  16. As a prospect, I like him better than some of the guys we have on campus now. He needs some technique work with his upper body, but he is a powerful kid with good feet and hips and agility for his size. If he played with better pad level, he would have absolutely stolen a kids soul a la Kelvin Banks in one of his hudl highlights.
  17. Acho-esque is gold. Perhaps Manny Acho-esque in the shit head department.
  18. LOL.. Kansas and West Virginia?
  19. I get it in a recent history context, but historical charts tend to not allow being a prisoner of the moment. UCLA is going to continue to fall like a brick unless they decide to get serious about football again and start investing. Their position is probably the most precarious out of all of the schools in those top groups. If you take away the Dabo run (which is now decidedly over), Clemson has never been anything special.
  20. The chart above is pretty clear that there are only 8 true blue bloods. I would begrudge Nebraska being in there, but you can't really deny it historically speaking. tOSU, Oklahoma, Bama, Michigan, Notre Dame, Texas, Nebraska That second tier I would classify 9 teams there. Penn State, Florida, LSU, Auburn, Georgia, Tennessee, UCLA, Florida State, Miami Best of the Rest Clemson, A&M, Washington, Michigan State, Arky, Wisconsin
  21. And of course, Tech shows their ass again on the way out. Never again you bunch of trailer park castoffs. Fuck your team, fuck your coaches, fuck your town, fuck your tumbleweeds.
