    New NIL Enforcement Targets Collectives, deals must serve ‘valid business purpose’

    I think you could have phrased it better then; instead of saying women should get it all. Gable Steveson's deal with Blaze credit union seems as legit as any NIL I've seen a female athlete do. I saw him on a billboard on 35W saying he was "on team Blaze". Since credit unions aren't usually...

    5 star tackle commits to TTU for 5mil over 3 years

    Maybe it could help with scouting too? Instead of getting drafted from a smaller school, now more players will move up, and if they don't hack it at the P4, then they won't get drafted. Previously you had to guess if the guy from some small school was gonna make it. Maybe an example was the...

    BYU QB Reportedly Transferring

    Very true (bolded). But they can tell him to seek forgiveness while also asking him to serve his punishment for breaking a rule he agreed to. They don't need to be mutually exclusive. Also the Bible makes no mention of the Pharisees inviting the women into their "team" so to speak, the story...

    BYU QB Reportedly Transferring

    Could you explain the bolded more? If you're going for the "don't throw stones" angle, that part of John wasn't in the earliest versions of the New Testament. And even if that was part of the original manuscripts, there's an obvious difference between stoning someone to death and a small...

    BYU QB Reportedly Transferring

    But if you're in that group, you really want to make sure the behavior doesn't happen. We have colleges here (Bethel, Northwestern) that have similar rules about women in your dorm room, etc. Opposite end of the spectrum, but it's analogous to like a biker gang or street gang not wanting...

    5 star tackle commits to TTU for 5mil over 3 years

    The only problem is, there is zero motivation for the NFL to fund that. If they fund a minor league during the fall/winter, they are competing with themselves. If they fund it in the spring, will the players really be able to participate in the fall with no offseason? NFL Europe was their...

    New NIL Enforcement Targets Collectives, deals must serve ‘valid business purpose’

    I think he saw the commercial on TV where that LSU women's BB athlete is marketing the Experian app, which appears to be legit NIL, and assumed all female athletes were doing it that way because it's unlikely he (@MaxyJR1) is going to hear about female players being paid to play for a specific...

    New NIL Enforcement Targets Collectives, deals must serve ‘valid business purpose’

    Exactly. When I was in school we spent time learning how to go to the library, find sources, and cite them in some ridiculously strict format. But if we've made machines that can now do that for us and we just need to review to make sure they didn't go to The Onion, for example, then that...

    UCF coach Scott Frost on what he learned from Nebraska: "Don't take the wrong job."

    I don't think he's implying he didn't win one there, I think he's implying you can't win one anymore at Nebraska.

    UCF coach Scott Frost on what he learned from Nebraska: "Don't take the wrong job."

    Interesting. I'd almost think the opposite should be true, where if you're in Florida among tons of people and stuff, that's when you should do the stuff you don't want people to see. I hate to strike your last few words, but I think it just sounds better without the "for him" haha.

    5 star tackle commits to TTU for 5mil over 3 years

    https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/45697565/all-college-football-ought-cheer-texas-tech Some interesting points: "The best part, at least thus far, is that the Red Raiders aren't alone as an upstart program attracting top-tier talent out of the Class of 2026. Zion Elee, an edge...

    5 star tackle commits to TTU for 5mil over 3 years

    haha I can get like that sometimes. Just love a good, spirited debate. I can agree with some of the things you wrote. It might not be wise to pay someone that young to do something they've never done before, but sometimes the market is what it is. When I graduated college in the dot com era...

    Fleck's Good Wins at Minnesota

    First, I gotta give ya credit for that post. Must have taken quite a while, and you formatted it well. Regarding the bolded, wouldn't that also give Fleck a chance to LOSE one more conference game per season than the previous coaches who only played 8? If the previous coaches win 4 games...

    Wow an end of an era on #Gophers campus as Annie’s Parlour closed after more than 50 years! Who has great memories going there while in Dinkytown?

    I'd even be a little worried about fast food. I think Subway owners are kinda screwed and McD's not much better. Maybe Chik-fil-A?

    Can Za'Quan Bryan/Jaylen Bowden replace Justin Walley/Ethan Robinson?

    You ended with a quote but didn't have a starting quote, so are those your words or someone else's?

    Can Za'Quan Bryan/Jaylen Bowden replace Justin Walley/Ethan Robinson?

    Maybe it's been that way recently haha, but I don't recall looking back at the Kill years and saying anything like that. We just watched upperclassman graduate and hoped the next would be better. Not trying to disagree in any way, just pointing out the progress we've made. Kinda like how now...

    Wow an end of an era on #Gophers campus as Annie’s Parlour closed after more than 50 years! Who has great memories going there while in Dinkytown?

    I wonder if it ever was an easy business. Like, does it run in cycles? Maybe it was easy for a while and then something happened and now it stinks, but maybe in 20 years it'll be a solid living again? Or has door dash and the like kinda put the nail in the coffin?

    That makes sense. Just because your dad was in the restaurant business doesn't mean the kids wanna do it. I'd have sold and pocketed the money too, as I have no interest in running/owning a restaurant.
