isn't this the same fucker who profits off all the sports the university doesn't fund by selling hockey jerseys but won't spend a dime on the team?

It is disappointing to me that a person bitching about lawyers getting a piece of the house settlement pie has been made a millionaire working as an athletic director, a position I believe that for the last 4 years is one that has the ability to address and provide solutions to and for the house situation via that job and possible sec and ncaa committees and sub committees.

This is the same administrator who spoke out on coaching buyouts and firing coaches as cause then awarded his football coach a new contract with an increased buyout.

The judge set the lawyer fees but is that worse then the administrator who agrees to a contract that will pay millions to fire an employee (I.e. coach) who is unsuccessful at their job?

Not to mention the increased cost of tickets and constant pleas for money/donations,  and the raffle kurfuffle.

And no demands for a Nolan statue. We're going to have to lose to Arkansas State to get that movement going again.

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 may be wrong, I don't know, but there is a lot of intelligence shinning through in the comments.  ::)

Whatever would we hope to accomplish without Edge?

I wonder if Stealurcheck's son recently stopped working for either of those outfits.

the college sports commission is rejecting nil deals that aren't for "valid business purpose" and are in fact blatant slush fund payments. the irs is snooping around and looking at the legitimacy of their non profit status.

some collectives have already shut down and the others are going to have to adjust around the commission. becoming marketing agencies or incorporating into the university like kentucky did recently.

"no longer apart"?  So, they are now together?

Watching Youtube in the last few days and one of those videos where a guy stops random people and asks them about their bank accounts came up.  He stopped a 22 year old kid and asked him how much he had in his bank account and the kid said "$17,000".  The kid then said he was a D1 basketball player at the University of San Francisco.  When asked how much he made a year he said, "Some years upwards of $500k." 

If a pretty normal looking white kid is making $500k a year playing basketball at University of San Francisco, this NIL stuff is waaaaay out of hand.  You need big bucks to compete.

Yeah, there's no fucking way that's true unless he's also working in VC on the side lol. I talked with a kid at Auburn that got something like an initial first year offer to transfer of $150k. Was a backup defensive lineman and didn't do much so they slashed him second year to $50. And that's SEC ball half of their fans would pay a player before paying their own mortgage. I figure the small schools is little to none outside a select few.

The Whyte Boar

I'm skeptical of the $500k report too, on the other hand I know a guy with a kid good enough to walk-on a basketball team at a bigger school in the past.  He is staying home snd going to a smaller school because in the words of his dad, "Even the walk-ons are getting like a $100k a year at places like TCU."

So he is going to play at a smaller school and hopefully do well enough to get a payday or two as a junior or senior at a bigger place.

When I was buying the exes Mercedes, sales guy told me we had a kid on the football team named worthy or worth that just bought a new gla with cash.

That's $50k for a non starting safety at the u of a to spend on a car.

It is insane.

There's not been a bigger bubble than current college athletics since the 17th century Dutch Republic.

I have no problem if a business wants to pay a kid to do ads. It was meant for the stars though not some second string OL to make hundreds of thousands.

More of a portal issue, but this is so ignorant.  Why is this allowed?  Check out this paragraph from the following article:

https://www.si.com/college/purdue/football/barry-odom-provides-update-on-purdue-quarterback-situation-entering-2025-season-malachi-singleton-bennett-meredith-ryan-brown-bennett-meredith

During that spring period, Purdue returned only Bennett Meredith from last year's roster, while also bringing in Malachi Singleton (Arkansas), Evans Chuba (Washington State), and EJ Colson (UCF) via the transfer portal. Then, after spring ball concluded, the Boilermakers lost Colson to the transfer portal, but were able to land Ryan Browne, who transferred out of Purdue and spent the spring season at North Carolina.
Things of that nature
