Quote from: Hogfan58 on Apr 06, 2024, 05:25 PMI bet the only game of ours these dudes saw was Duke. They didn't see all the others where we played like crap and looked like we didn't give a shit. Muss and the team gave up LONG before any of fan's gave up on them.

I was about to post the same thing.  We can take a losing season as a fan base, we've definitely proven that.

But this year wasn't just a losing season.  All those guys in that video know is the record.

Quote from: Borenutz on Apr 06, 2024, 05:09 PMA little surprising Tang has a 6 million buyout. Meanwhile, Muss has a 1 million to leave on his own, but 6 million to fire him( or something like that's been posted). AND, we can't afford to fire our football coach. Definitely sounds like there is some dumbassery going on with our AD and not inspiring much hope that he will not F this up.

If we really don't have any money, I want to see some fucking detailed financial information. 

We have more, wealthier boosters than Ole Miss. We sell more, higher priced tickets to all sports (yes including football).  They are in the poorest state in the union, and they split loyalties with another similar school. 

Where did the fucking money go?

I'm parsing here but it sounds like whatever the UA was doing initially with NIL was an epic failure and nobody is saying it but I wonder how fraudulent it was. Establishing a "collective" some 18 months too late is likely killing us right now.

If they think we don't have any money now, just wait until the foundation members quit donating. That, along with other donors.
Well, shit...

It feels like instead of picking either football or basketball to be good in and Dumping more money into that sport and taking our chance in the other on an up-and-comer. We have managed to split the money in a way that funds both programs leaving us shittastic and underfunded in both.

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."

Ole Miss is benefiting by being hot at the right time. The average fan doesn't mind sending in that $100 a month for winning programs.

Arkansas fans are used to the big money guys paying for everything. They aren't sending in money unless they get something for it. (Better seats, merch, etc) They won't or can't  afford to support a loser.

A quality athletic director is key to directing athletic programs as the main director of athletics.

Is this true?  I don't think it's true.  

Any NIL dependent on the average fan probably won't accomplish anything.

It can't come from public companies either.

Does this mean Warren has gotten involved again and put the AD on the bench? It happened with the Anderson hire.

I don't know. Get 20000 average fans at $100 a month and that's $24 million a year. Pretty good payroll.

I'd imagine the regular posters here are bigger fans than the average fan.

And I'd imagine very few of us would ever donate $100 a month to a Razorback NIL.

Is there even one woopigger chipping in now?
