Think outside of sports.

I'm not sure what part of the state you live in, but I'm in the heart of Mpls and I can tell you there are plenty of things to do besides vikings football. And not everyone is a sports fan either. But if you don't acknowledge that Mpls has lots to offer that Omaha and Des Moines don't, then I...

The counter to this is that, in Lincoln, even though they are a mere fraction of our size as you say, is that 99.9% of the people there care about Nebraska football. Our population doesn't scale nearly that well, so even though we have a lot more people, we probably have less overall Gopher...

Good points on the math. I suppose this just illustrates you can't please everyone when you don't have enough to go around.

Can you even get the oil changed for less than that?

I feel the same. This is way worse than Michigan. If I was purdue(?) I'd kick him off the team immediately. Which teammates would want to trust this a-hole.

I'm excited for the "havoc" defense!!! I love great defenses messing things up for the other team.

Example: (and this is just for illustration, as I am a generous tipper) That's kinda like saying when a restaurant automatically adds in a gratuity that the wait staff "made" that money. The person eating obviously wanted to pay for the food, so the profit of selling that food made the...

I was referring to the $200 fee. Obviously people are willing to pay for an education or to go to games.

At least in terms of the student services fee and other things the kids are paying for, I fixed your sentence for you. The U isn't "making money" they are "taking money". Making money comes from putting out a product or service people will pay for willingly. This isn't that.

What the F- does Title 9 have to do with it? Man that is getting stretched WAAAAAY past it's initial intent.

Good Maybe you'll get so upset you'll stop being a fan and stop posting here. The latter would be a nice compromise.

"vote w their feet" = change schools, hope all credits transfer, etc isn't quite as simple as you make it out to be.

I'll give a pass on losing Bucky Irving since we didn't even have a collective yet, but we weren't able to keep Philip Daniels and he probably doesn't require as much NIL as a successful redshirt freshman QB would. A team like ours basically has a cap and if he and Koi get too much of it, who...

I can't follow this. Wouldn't it be easier to think about being the starter if the team enticing you with NIL has the question mark players? If I were him and was looking to leave and Arkansas needed a QB, I'd consider that better than tOSU, etc where you know there's going to be redshirt...

Maybe not you, but there have been lots of people wanting federal legislation around this. If you don't, fine.

I'd put Philip Nelson ahead of Athan. I think he was higher ranked. Plus Athan at least got us that victory in Nebraska after Tanner went out at halftime.

I hope viewership continues to drop and they go with something else completely. I have zero interest in a college football post season tournament in January, especially when a far better one is shaping up in the exact same sport.

I'm having trouble grasping what type of law they could even pass that wouldn't be struck down. If they said college artists can only accept certain types of compensation, etc. or college musicians, they'd be laughed at for even bringing it up. But somehow some people think they can control...

Good point. I'm waiting for the time when the Supreme Court rules some 3rd party can't just strike down NIL deals - then the inevitable lawsuits from the athletes who are getting rejected now, claiming that they suffered irreparable financial harm from Deloitte striking them down.
