I'm always telling my kids things about the notion of fair, so today has me laughing. 
"Fair is a four letter word."
"Fair is just a feeling."
"Fair is for pig auctions and pie-eating contests."
I thought about Fair Is a Four Letter Word but it doesn't have the scale I like for title changes.

Thanks. I have been on the boards since 1997 when I was a student at Texas. We've spent decades as fans and board patrons feeling powerless to create any real change. The Internet, social media,

I work closely with a certain previously committed 5 star QB's father (hint: its Quinn Ewers, for those who haven't been following recruiting closely like I have) and chatted with him a bit this after

Well Banks dad is liking his comment so whatever the fuck is going on Sark needs to clarify it with the dad.  Be a fucking salesman.

200k over 4 years plus all of the other NIL opportunities and you get to be coached by arguably the best OL coach in college football.  If they are too stupid to see that and instead want to chase a bag by aggy under the table, so be it.  We’re going to be very attractive to a lot of OL recruits regardless of Banks.

Trainer is mad because he ain’t getting a slice of the pie.

I don't think Trainer know the "total" number of the packages when combined and should be clarified for ALL to see.  He's thinking a $50k deal when he knows Banks has been offered much more.  He's not seeing the $150k/yr number or $600k (min) to come to Texas.  $600k is the floor offer.

Adding $600K should be the number that gets floated about, not $50k.

Banks Dad "liked" this one....

Also by same trainer (not liked)...

 

Lol. Wait. So are we seeing the handlers freak out in real time over being cut out of the deals?    Best thing about NIL will be that all the money will now go to the players.   

(minus the IRS cut of course 😑)

Perhaps the trainer is referencing the time value of money. You know a dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow. I’m sure that’s what he’s concerned about…

People will bitch about anything, only school right now offering 150k a year legally to offensive lineman to play college football and with a full scholarship and throwing out low ball comments.  Ahh ok 🙄.  

Pissed because they can't get "their cut". The bag game is dying before our eyes. Let's Deathstar this mother fucker.

Need Vince, Colt, and Sam to reach out to Quinn like this. 
 

I had two finals on Friday and have five this week, I should be studying but I can’t get off this recruiting board because the last four days has been fucking nuts. 

Go study so you can donate to Burnt Ends when you graduate.  Not 30 years later like me.

seeing aggy crying about us making this a charitable situation reminded me that one of my first pieces of feedback in early august was to make sure it was tied to a charity for tax purposes, write-offs, etc so now i'm going to take full credit for that part of it and for aggy being bent the fuck out of shape.

you're welcome.

Nahlin: "I feel decent, but not great on Quinn. I think the more distance between his Tech visit and final decision, the better for Texas."

Yeah.  We've all experienced that high that comes from being in Lubbock.  Put a little time between him and the visit and maybe the euphoria will wear off.

Just give it a few days. When it starts to burn when he pees he'll rethink everything
