    Wisconsin Badgers are idiots

    Setting aside the fact that an NIL collective payment isn't supposed to be a bonus in any sense of that word, bonuses "in the real world" are typically a reward for completed work and have already been earned when paid out. There are also "signing bonuses" which are an inducement for future...

    Wisconsin Badgers are idiots

    Cannot comment on this particular agreement because I haven't seen it, but even if the collective has some type of contractual recovery right, how do they enforce it? There could be some type of dispute resolution provision, but I haven't seen any reference to that here. They could ask for the...

    Memorial Stadium

    Great thread, thanks to all for sharing their memories. My personal experiences at Memorial Stadium are limited to my Dad's stories of attending games starting in the 30's and then arriving on the campus shortly before demolition. Did manage to scale a security fence and grab a couple of bricks...

    Burns has also said that Tyler Cooper has had some type of a surgery and is unlikely to play.

    Wisconsin Badgers are idiots

    To add a bit to the above, it seems that Lucas agreed to some type of an NIL deal in Madison and got some money up front. He went home for break (cuz no bowl practices at wisconsin :)) and his Mom, who never wanted him to leave Florida in the first place, got in his ear about other...

    Another NIL mess…

    Sure there are lots of "he said, she said" situations where the parties don't concur on what was agreed. Sometimes this is a case of one side lying, but often there are honest disagreements over the terms of the contract or whether there was a contract at all. When that happens, the judge or...

    Seems like there is/was some disconnect among the players and coaches in the secondary there. Lots of transfers from that group.

    Tally of Starters Opting Out

    Brosmer has said he's going to play. I'd add Jackson and Spencer to the potential opt outs.

    Georgia Tech QB Zach Pyron Transfers to Minnesota

    I don't know what conference the Hebrews are in, but if you can go 11-1 at any level, that's impressive!

    Gophers 2025 Schedule Announced - how many wins do you predict?

    I'm with Zep on this one. I was looking forward to an early to mid-season game on the lake. Having been to one of the Wrigley games this year, I can tell you that the experience was rather mediocre. There are good food and beverage options, but a lot of poor seats at an inflated price. Maybe...

    Seems a bit strange that his younger brother just signed on with the Badgers a week ago.

    Official 2025 Roster Movement Thread - Who's In and Who's Out?

    To clarify, for bowl or playoff teams the portal remains open until 6 days after their final game, so this deadline will be extended for Minnesota until after the bowl game. We won't know the exact closing date until we know which bowl game they get.
