[quote]I want to see the litigation over what is deemed "true NIL" and not pay for play and the market rates of NIL. The market rate in Austin, TX can't be the same as Starkville, MS.[/quote] To be clear, none of this is NIL. That’s still going to be in play and vary widely. ...
Summary for folks who saw the wall of text and didn’t read… [quote]>>>>>> Possible neutral sites for the rivalry could be Orlando or Atlanta. A home-and-home series has long been pushed by Kirby Smart, with the idea that Georgia would benefit from the added recruiting weekend every two years. <<<...
[quote]What really sucks is we didn’t play each other.[/quote] That was a scheduling travesty. Wife’s a Vandy grad and would have loved to going to that series. ...

[quote]Get ready for college football rosters to slim down considerably.[/quote] Yep. Wondering if lower level schools don’t become a farm system for 3 & some 4* kids. The ones who prove themselves get called up to a salaried roster spot. ...
[quote]AU also got robbed in 1983[/quote] That’s just football. Texas also had 1 loss in a brutal schedule & dominated Auburn in JHS that year. We were up 20-0 at halftime and called off the dogs. Bo scored a late 4th Q TD to avoid the shutout. ...

[quote]So I can expect to see Lebron James in both Nike and Adidas? [/quote] Signing a bunch of 18 yr-olds to lucrative 4 yr deals seems like a disaster in the making. So, I expect 24 mo contract durations with top talent hitting free agency to see what other schools can offer NIL wise on top of sa...
[quote]I might as well just watch NFL at that point[/quote] You might as well watch it now. It's the same professional sport but with less talented players and less team continuity. This does nothing to change the portal/NIL. That's a separate deal which will require a whole lot of other concessions...
[quote]Oh don’t worry, it’s coming very soon.[/quote] The $20m is the schools way to get out ahead of that. But, it won't be nearly enough for the players union. That's when negotiations will get ugly....
[quote]Cool story, but ithe BSC closure is a comedy of errors. [/quote] Bet that won’t be the only school that ends up folding because of incompetence at the top. ...
[quote]I know it is a bitter pill to swallow but she is not going to make the WNBA equal to the NBA. [/quote] Anywhere else this would be one of the weirder crusades I’ve seen. Here though, it’s just a normal Thursday. ...
[quote]Universities should have to sell their athletics programs, facilities and related intellectual property. Go back to the original purpose of tertiary education[/quote] Too much $ & too many students would be lost for some schools to go this route. ...
[quote]Is Texas really going to keep Pierce? I thought he was toast[/quote] Unfortunately, I think they might. Either way, the holes we have won’t be fixed by next season. ...
[quote]If that bothers you OU fans, then you need to fasten your seatbelts. That is nothing just wait, it will be a bumpy ride. [/quote] You’ll find Norman’s a pretty sensitive place. Lot of tradition. But somehow still pretty insecure despite all of that. ...
[quote]Begs the question. How do OU and Texas fair next year in the SEC? [/quote] Next year? Not good with Pierce at the helm. Long-term? Just fine. ...

[quote]it’s not healthy[/quote] Got the chance to go to several IB’s in both Tuscaloosa and Auburn. Thought fans were very passionate during the game but generally polite to each other before/after. ...

[quote]This is a basic breach of contract lawsuit, though, I'm not sure it has much larger meaning. [/quote] Yes it is & yes it does. ...

[quote]Rashada is the first domino[/quote] He’s a domino, not the first. And it’s for CFB in general, not just UF. This is one of several rumblings [link=(https://www.secrant.com/rant/display.aspx?sp=113227026&s=1&p=113227026)]I was referring to a few weeks back. [/link] Expect more on the way. ...
