Flores will be a tough sell for a lot of owners as HC. He is seen as both a liability in being too tough on support staff but also suing a former employer. It's really hard to hire someone you know might sure you if you ever fire them. I'm with you Ogie, I think he got some awful short-sighted...

He was banned. He was Rockraven and he is also another poster on here who posts more on the basketball board. It's a dead give away. He is really dumb. He does internet tough guy stuff. He talks about blowing dudes a lot (seriously). He is willing to take this bet because he will just to...

Yep, we've already seen it in basketball. It's still a no-brainer for the top 10 pick type of players, but a lot of players can make more money returning to school to develop. It's better for the pro leagues as well.

I think Michigan fans pretend to hate Meyer because they want to say his success at tOSU is tainted but they would also take him in a heartbeat. If they had any shot at Kiffin, they'd have taken him.

Yeah, you know you're in a bad spot when you're longing for the days of Ed Ingram and Bradbury.

The best players are worth these giant contracts, the key is not to miss.

I can just see the president of the university reading the 70th story about abortions and OnlyFans models and finally snap and say "Go hire a G D Mormon".

Yeah, he had been starting for the most part of the year because Greenlaw was injured in the Super Bowl the season before. He was literally hired as a stop gap. Greenlaw returned from injury in like week 15 of the next year and Campbell moved to his reserve position. During that game, San Fran...

I have no idea if this is it, but they did have bad timing. They bought a company with a ton of debt and all of the regional sports networks are losing viewership. Their plan was to buy a ton of them and then merge them into one entity and I just think the amount of debt they had to take on is...

I've seen people outright sell shares of their bet as well if you're having a hard time finding enough ways to hedge.

That's when I had season tickets too. At the time, I lived in Minneapolis and worked downtown. I couldn't give the tickets away. I had these conversations once a week: "Hey, do you wanna go to the Wolves game tonight?" "The Wolves stink" "Yeah, but you'll get to watch Dwight Howard up close"...

Daniel Jackson was one of my favorite Gophers of the last 20 years but you're not wrong.

One of my clients hired an AI consultant for $1.8M to download Co-pilot and do 3 trainings on basic AI (co-pilot, using internal open AI, etc.). My point? With Capitalism you're free to make terrible decisions too.

There is a Mike Morris joke in there somewhere.

Carson Beck made $4M from Miami last year and Arch is between $5.5M-$7M. How much do you think Miami would pay for Justin Fields? Fields might not be the best example because maybe someone gives him another shot and maybe he'd take less to try to get another QB1 opportunity. That said, I think...

No, you're right. I don't think he wins enough right now for Michigan to be interested. I do think he would win a lot more with more talent but I don't think many programs of Michigan's caliber are going to try to sell that to their fan base (to our benefit).

Other than what have been determined as arbitrary NCAA rules that been typically seen as unreasonable restraints on trade, what is stopping Justin Fields from returning to college? They are all professionals now, what is stopping someone from pursuing more money in a different league?

IMO, the Michigan fans that I know want the best of both worlds but at the end of the day they'll default to the side of winning. You'll hear weird shit where they'll talk about how it's more difficult to win at Michigan than Ohio State/Alabama/Etc. because of their integrity but at the same...

You're 100% right. I'd rather go max protect and give TJ or Bateman another .5 seconds to get open then dump the ball down to Rodney Smith for a 2 yard gain. IMO, as someone who doesn't love the west coast offense, there just aren't many people in college who can go through the progressions...

Aesthetically, that is really hard to watch. The NBA changed the game in the 90's/00's to go to a more skill-based game. Some would argue it went too far, reasonable people can disagree. This type of flopping is considerably worse for the game (IMO), it's hard to watch.
