Really? If you do not realize that there is so much more to do and spend your money on in the Twin Cities than there is in Lincoln, then it is not even worth a discussion. Also, only about 16% of the population is avid college/pro sports fans.

Go ahead and send you kids to a public school in the South for a year or two and then bring them back up and see how far they are behind. Go ahead and try to support your family as a Police Officer or Teacher in the South. I lived in the Atlanta area for about 4 years, no thank you.

For someone who bitches all the time about needless state taxes, you sure are willing to spend other peoples money on things that are important to you.

What is your point? I doubt that the students that are paying this fee were the ones that complained about no money for NIL. Maybe they should charge a NIL fee to the GHer's that complained about not having enough NIL

The results are directly related to how you apply yourself and current economic conditions. You get out of your degree what you put into it. I asked you a specific question, what is your answer?

I did not say they are all correctly managed, just that they figured out a pay structure that they could afford and would not destroy the league. The current "system" in college sports will destroy all of the teams if it is not fixed. A small handful of booster financed teams can not survive...

And who judges what are the absolute BS programs/classes/professors are at the U? Ok, let's give this a little try. Is this Chemistry 8551 an absolute BS class that is a waste of money that could be spent on paying football players?

looks like it was recorded awhile ago, but just posted on YT a few days ago:

They should start a fund raising program to enhance our traditions....

Let's get serious and get back to the Statue talk: I say AJ's Mom or whoever the hell it was.... needs a statue. No really, I think it is a good idea to erect some statues of Bronko Nagurski, Bruce Smith, etc.. but do not get too carried away with it or it will dilute the significance.

You have it backwards. It is you guys that are making up ways to keep attacking him. We are just saying: Enough, grow up and move on. It is obvious that Ben has....

Total BS! The AD went for the Youth/Local Hero movement on his basketball hires in the hopes of improving local recruiting and the chance he would hit lightning in a bottle. Neither worked as he had hoped. Lindsey was much more of a local hero, but Ben had very close ties with the families of...

All that just to pat yourself on the back for something you say you are not emotionally invested in? Good one, give yourself a trophy.
