I'll admit, it does feel like we are adding some talent that maybe we were missing last season.

If nothing else it is a reason to half assed pay attention to a few games and see.

Quote from: The Whyte Boar on Dec 21, 2024, 10:35 AMWith this junior college ruling, why would a lesser skilled player ever go to a mid major or lower level college.  Go to a junior college for as long as it takes.  Play football, lift weights, mature your body, and then hit the four year sweepstakes at a major conference school and try to get maximum NIL every year.  You're going to have 27 year old college players who aren't good enough for the NFL chasing NIL money.

If junior college doesn't count toward eligibility, why should anything else.  You should be able to play college football as long as you can find a college that will enroll you.  Shit, guys playing Canadian football should be able to come back and play in the SEC.  Why play in Canada for $75k a year when you can make $500k as an SEC player without even being any good?

While you are at it, we have a former MLB pro on our team nearing 30.

Long as NIL and revenue sharing beats the 40 hour week grind, I think we'll continue to see more and more players beyond the typical college ages.

Guess Ole Miss didn't offer enough.

I'd cut his pay 50% before taking him back.

In, out, in, out...I think he is jacking us off..or around or something.
Well, shit...

The Whyte Boar

Word is his dad wanted $500k.  We offered $300k.  He bailed and no one would give him that much.  So, now he is back. 

So silly because if I were coach, if I had any other options half as good, I'd keep his carries down knowing that anything good he did would simply be used to drive up his value next year.

Why pay him $300k?  Cut it down $50-100k and see what daddy says. Fuck right off.

I'd tell him he gets free room and board in the dorms, and that's it.  Fuck that drama.
"That's embarrassing.  Looks like Josh Duggar when his parents asked him to babysit."

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Once authored a post that critics claimed, "Was notaslibro level."

he's just going to show out in 2-3 games then go out "injured".  He'll be talking to agents all season trying to get a bigger bag.  We are cucks
Things of that nature

BASS

After Washington signed I think I would have passed on him coming back to the team.
Fuck your feelings

I have no idea what the pay scale is for players, but shocked someone would pay $300k for him.
