Because with Mendoza they beat @ Iowa by 5, @ Oregon by 10, and @ Penn State by 3. Without the Heisman winner, they lose those three games. It's really not rocket science.

Gophers have House money and whatever else DTA can come up with. But since most other P4 have the House money too, that's just going to rapidly drive up the price for good QB's in the portal. How do you propose that a program like ours attracts and affords a QB in the portal at the level of...

Darn, I thought you might actually give this one a crack @Pompous Elitist ... you were so certain before. Oh well. Like I said, no one has the answer to this one, yet

The training table has a plethora of butter options

Mendoza won the Heisman trophy and will go #1 in the NFL draft. There is no need to pretend that their 2025 season wasn't 99% about him being an incredible player.

Head football coach at Minnesota is a good gig. - Multi-millionaire, and you can slap whatever personal slogan you want on the helmet, signs, etc. and keep the money from that (FULLY granted that it's for a great cause and charity) - play teams like Northwestern State in non-conf and count...

OK Thanks Other than it's only a P4 now, not a P5. P4 + highest G6

As I said, how is it possible under current law to allow employment ... just for P4 football and basketball players, but not any other players in any other situation under the NCAA?? And if you make that happen ... minimum 95% of NCAA varsity athletics departments close shop. They can't afford...

:ROFLMAO: You acknowledge that lawyers only care about billable hours.

Did this guy really not notice the line immediately above? That's the entirety of the reason. So seems like a silly non-point to make

It will be part of the CBA. Rules are indeed needed still

So we're down to Cardinals, Browns, Raiders, and Bills. Bills owner fired a defensive coach who won a ton of games but ran into a historical Chiefs dynasty. Other three seem like considerable projects, but Browns do have a nice new stadium coming at least. Flores safe for this year?

Eligibility is determined by NCAA rules. Rules should state that if you break your signed NIL contract, you are then automatically ineligible to play the next season. I could perhaps be good relaxing that to just be at any school that has opted into House Settlement. If he's willing to go...

I can't follow this. This is what I think is correct, but easily could be wrong. - Three of the P4 conf champs are ranked top 10 - Last is ranked #20 - Top G6 is ranked #13 - Notre Dame ranked #12 I think the new rules guarantee an at-large to ND. Last year's rules would not, and they very...

Now that said .... If being actual, dyed in the wool employees of the school allowed us to get to collective bargaining faster .... I'm for that. Here's the rub: how do you do that only for P4 football and men's & women's basketball players .... but not any other sport at P4 schools, let...

Michael Jordan was not an employee of McDonald's. Whatever that relationship was legally, that's exactly the same case as we have with players signing defacto NIL contracts with schools directly.

You're the one who keeps bringing up a tangential and as far as I can tell irrelevant point about "non-competes". There doesn't need to be any such clause in any contract. It can just be a rule: you break your contract, then the rules say you aren't eligible for the following season...

If that isn't actually in the contract Mensah signed, then why are you bringing this up? Who said anything about unlimited? Who gets to decide what's "enforceable" or not? Are you denying that the NC court has ruled that he cannot play for Miami? That didn't actually happen? They can't...

Bold: what are you talking about? Are you trying to assert something about the contract was unfair? How so? I haven't read anything like that. I'm going to take a wild guess that you are a libertarian.
