  1. So just a clarifying question from a moron... Assume SEC & Big 10 agree between each other to stick to a revenue sharing salary cap and assume it passes legal muster. Outside of corporate entities who can swing their own NIL deals with, wouldn't the collectives still be a useful way for little fish to throw money at players via the charitable causes thing? Also, would there be reporting differences for the person giving the money (to the school vs. charitable TOF)? A hesitation I would have giving to the school is that the money might accidentally buy a book for a nerd.
  2. Are Teslas bad cars because people hate Elon Musk? Is modern medicine bad because people hate Big Pharma? Is capitalism bad because many people are alienated by it? Social media comments aren't real life and the feelings of the angriest online activists aren't representative of the entire market. The video game girls these dudes complain about would, in real life, still be well out of their league. That's the funny thing. The video game monitor isn't a very good mirror.
  3. Well our special teams has been extremely well-coached, disciplined, and effective. So no worries!!
  4. Colorado is far better right now than basically anyone here thought they would be. - Would be the first bowl win since 2004. - First head coach with a winning record since Gary Barnett (true win or lose). - Highest fan interest since... ever? Deion has done a fantastic job.
  5. Yeah, the run-only Arch package is idiotic. Arch as a dual threat is a great idea, though.
  6. Aggie buddy's freshly-indoctrinated Aggie son talked about this "march so complex that it shouldn't even be possible" stuff. I commented that if their engineers were stumped by it then it doesn't say a lot for their engineers and that I'm sure I could find some people in Austin to explain it to them fairly easily.. They were unamused. (And everyone in the Wendy's drive-thru clapped.) I've seen the Fightin' Aggie Band quite a few times and it's a cool show they do, but it gets very tiring to deal with Aggies wanting to make their "good enoughs" into "the greatest evers".
  7. $1.5-$2.5M for the Wazzu QB. Love it.
  8. Hopefully there's not a single reason it's Bear and a ton of reasons it's someone else. All the ramblin' about Bear over the years has made me a wreck.
  9. If the NCAA does not exist, everything is permissible. - Fyodor Dostoevsky, probably
  10. I would pay into Wazzu NIL if I knew it would guarantee they keep Mateer. Does TOF have a Super Secret Espionage link for such a thing? Could we fundraise?
  11. 6 WR gone to the portal 21 total Mateer, the QB they hired an OC to entice, might not even come. He might stick with Wazzu. They're on fire and it's beautiful.
  12. Red Zone Arch, except the Red Zone starts at OUR 20.
  13. It's OK guys, these kinds of mass exodus situations always happen when there's an entirely new coaching staff. A new head coach wants to take that first year to get rid of the old locker room cancers and get HIS guys in. First year coach problems. Gotta drink from the firehose!
  14. Keep fleecing the sheep, Billy Boy! I respect the game!!!!
  15. Are you quoting Robert Frost?
  16. winner autobid for NC game; skips the playoffs entirely
  17. Yeah, which is why I called it "nonsense". Keep up.
  18. I am losing my MIND over these guys who contributed nothing and were not projected to contribute anything!! WHAT ABOUT THE NUMBERS!?!?!?!?
  19. I refuse to believe Sark is being pushed around by anyone in Ewers's camp. I have no idea who that would even be or why that kind of leverage would even exist outside of some QAnon stuff. If I was going to believe ANY outside-forces nonsense, it would be Manning's side saying, "DO NOT START HIM. HE'S NOT READY!" I imagine the Mannings have more sway than some randos from Southlake. OR MAYBE IT'S THE REPTILIANS! "I trust the 30+ game starter over the freshman" is not a crazy thing for a coach to think. In fact, it's the sanest way for a coach to think unless the freshman in question has been Godlike in his showings -- which Arch hasn't -- or the team is falling off a cliff and in desperate need of anything to stop the fall -- which Texas isn't.
