Right now they’re throwing $ at everyone. But being in the state of FL will always give them an advantage over us.

This don't have a damn thing to do with them being in Florida..this is purely about greed and Florida spending insanely because they are desperately trying to dig out of a massive hole.

Ryan Day thinks Herbstreit is a road with shops that only sell herbs and spices.

@TrippieRedd think Herbstreit is that street where all the dispensaries are at.

That T don't look right. You would think Sally could get the Power T looking right by now.

Meanwhile, Florida is offering Hawk Tuah coin as part of it's NiL deals.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

I have a feeling Florida/Billy is spending desperately.

It is obvious as hell...but look what it did for Jimbo and A&M....zilch

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

pretty sure they’re using the buyout money to buy enough talent to overcome Billy’s coaching ability

That didn't work for A&M and Jimbo.

 

[TrippieRedd]

I wish we could’ve started the NiL era with contracts being something like

Here’s 300-500k for signing with us or however it works

Then they get “bonuses” based on performance at the end of the season, like how head coaches get theirs for making it the tourney or winning the SEC.

300k base, or something like this.
If you get 750 receiving yards, you get a bonus
If you get 25 passing TDs, you get a bonus

Not, you get a bonus for not transferring and staying with us!! The fact we’re paying more for kids to not transfer, is so stupid especially when they have only played 5 snaps lol

The kids get paid something early, then they get more based on their performance. I wish they would’ve structured it like this somehow.

I get it, it’s basically structured like this, the kids that standout get more money, sure, but it’s so poorly executed.

My buddy who is a Michigan fan sent me this from one of their boards. It’s wild.

We had to put our 9 year old matriarch pup down today. Asking everyone to raise a glass in honor of her. Her name is Paisley. We'll miss her. Thank you.

It’s a general statement that they will always have that advantage over us.

Herbstreit hearing 20,000-30,000 Vol fans in The Shoe on Saturday

3500 tix was an insult. Never ever give this fanbase a challenge.

I pray for comfort in your loss.

Someone smarter than me answer this. What is preventing college athletes from having unlimited eligibility? How does eligibility running out not cause some form of antitrust/legal issue? Since the players are basically employees or profiting form endorsements how can they just tell them they’re done playing after 4 years? I think Pavias case opens a can of worms.

From my understanding the only thing that keeps eligibility a thing is tradition. I think the Jose Football case is going to bring that to front.

I just got into 3D printing back in July. Bambu is definitely the move. It does everything for you. You can download and print other folks models from bambu studio. I bought an A1 mini but would like to buy a bigger model as I'd like to sell prints. You don't have to use bambu filament. I've used other brands, you just have to manually enter the info. That fusion360 is EXPENSIVE lol. I have no idea how to use CAD but that's interesting about libraries. I didn't know that.

I think the larger models need their filament because they have multiple spools. At least that's the way it was explained to me.

Fusion 360 is expensive, trust me, I have to pay for it. Having said that, you can download and use it for free as an individual. My Son In Law is learning it now a d it was free. You can't as a commercial operation.

 

[TrippieRedd]

If you stay in school for more than 5 years to play college football, you’re a ****ing loser.

Ryan Day most definitely thinks Herbie is hot and spicy.

Sorry, bud. I'll break out the good stuff.

I hope they have enough NIL money for the rest of their life.

How many companies are going to hire a 25-26 year old with no working experience because they wanted to stay in school to play football

I don't know. Old Jimbo came out alright.

Cool story. Do you know Clausens stats from the 2001 and 2003 games? Let’s see.

2001- 17/25 168 yards 1 TD and 2 INTs

2003- 12/23 235 yards 1 TD and 1 INT

So in the two big wins many fans attribute to Clausen, he threw 2 TDs and 3 INTs. In 2001, we won 34-32. Clausen accounted for 7 points. In 2003, we won 24-10. Again he accounted for 7 points. So those combined games the “iceman” accounted for 14 out of 58 points.

Tell me again how Clausen “beat” UF. You and others need to learn what a team game is. He was not the main reason we beat UF in 2001 and 2003. In 2001, Stephen’s drained the swamp. He wa the main reason we won in 2001. In 2003, again it was the running game and a great defense. Just like this year.

Would you say Nico beat UF this year?
No you wouldn’t. He was part of it. But we won because of great defense and an elite run game. Just like in 2001 and 2003. Lear some history before you act like an idiot.

The quarterback is responsible for more than that. He sets the tone. The team feeds off him. It's a leadership role. He also decided when to check down to a run. He executed the offense that led us to big wins in the road. Credit where credit is due.
