    Oh man. PSU is getting bailed out by dumb Boise mistakes, a shaky kicker. Looks like they’re going to escape barring something kind of wierd.

    Ope, I spoke too soon. That turnover puts them in a very bad position.

    Boise is starting to find some chinks in the PSU defense. This could be an interesting 4th quarter.

    Another NIL mess…

    He wasn’t thinking. Alt take is he figured no downside for himself - except bad karma. Probably thinking 80/20 odds he gets away with it or the booster will take the fall and he’ll be in a different city in a few years.

    Another NIL mess…

    Gotcha. The written texts between the players and coach and booster could be damning. Purely verbal, I guess I’d need to see actual cases where the plaintiffs prevailed. Can we all agree it is definitely better to eliminate any room for misunderstanding or standard weasel clauses if only...

    Another NIL mess…

    You’ve gotta be kidding, man? Contracts, simple amendments when necessary protect both parties. If you’re not sure who the sucker is…it’s you. Get EVERYTHING you actually expect in writing.

    ESPN bowl monopoly

    Maybe a simplification or not quite right but channel conglomerate Disney leans on cable companies to pay large fees to carry ABC/ESPN/name a network >>cable companies pass on the fees to one and all >>Disney turns around and contracts with/makes absurd payments to the BIG TEN or SEC or ACC...

    Highest-paid player in college football history? Transfer QB Darian Mensah's Duke deal is sign of times

    Hearing MN QB1 starting July 2025 will receive $6M in revenue sharing, a Bentley and driver, a fully stocked mini-fridge, and a solid gold ceremonial drinking horn.

    Evidently, Kaliakmanis left for more NIL money

    Yeah as I recall it there was quite a gap between the portal announcement and Rutgers announcing. I’m pretty skeptical there was any sort of contract offer in place before he was ejected.

    Didn’t watch, did a Gopher fan pay him to leave

    Who Wins the Whole Enchilada?

    Maybe another interesting question is what we’d have with the old two or four team playoff. The savants who always seem to know who the best teams are may have trouble polishing the crystal ball this year. Popular bet has to be Oregon or Ohio State. Is that where the money is flowing?

    Who Wins the Whole Enchilada?

    Going to guess the team with the best defense, which is…I don’t know. I’d like Boise State to go on an insane, unlikely run but yeah thats probably not going to happen.

    If the program ends up having leeway on how to allocate the revenue sharing do you put most of it into the linemen, or spread it around more. Choose your fighter.

    Highest-paid player in college football history? Transfer QB Darian Mensah's Duke deal is sign of times

    For perspective on all these funny numbers getting thrown around The Swarm collective 2023 tax return was recently published as they claim…federal tax-exempt status. Anyway, buried down at the bottom I believe they state they made $2.6M in athlete payments during 2023 (all sports). They took...
