Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[EJVOL4LIFE]

I've been wrong well enough times to develop a bit of an immunity. Turns out it's @Vawlz that I owe the apology to.

Yeah, I think you're right. I couldn't recall off the top of my head at the time of my post but now that you mentioned the name, I think that is him.

 

[Smokey123]

Yeah Garner is the glue, BANKS sucks, no decent coordinator gives up 63 points to sc, got embarrassed last time out... He's not the best DC we could get, everyone knows that even if they won't admit it

Do you think Heupel should be fired?

Lady Voles looking good

If it was paid through the school then yes but NIL is third party so they have no ability to make this ruling

But I think that is what this is referring to. It’s a part of the House settlement that is about to bring revenue sharing to college athletics. My reading is that this is basically going to require the $20 million pot that schools divide up to now be equally distributed, but yes all the standard NIL stuff won’t change.

Lady Vols 14 points away from 100. I bet CKC gives'em hell over it,

86-73
15-2
Big time games next Thursday & Monday I think, vs #7 Tex & #2 USCe

Put another one in the Win column for Lady Vols. 86-73 over the Lady Bulldogs...

I'm actually okay with Cowboys hiring Deion Sanders as HC. Deion can't be no worse than Mr. 8-8 Jason Garrett was or Dave Campo from the late 90's .

Hire Deion, restructure Dak's contract and draft Shedeur and let him sit for 1 year and then trade Dak ...

Rather have Travis Hunter to team up with Cee Dee Lamb on offensive side of ball. Dallas has 3 adequate CB's under contract.....

I just can’t see those 2 Texas sized egos co-existing

What a wonderful picture of the failures of both extremes. Fully socialist revenue sharing vs fully capitalist NIL. At one extreme we get the women's rowing team receiving the same amount as your starting QB, and at the other extreme the girls get $0 while the QB gets $3M a year. Surely we can find some middle ground that recognizes that while we are all equal before God and the Law, we do not all equally contribute to the end result. A living wage is reasonable for all, but some are simply more important and should be paid more. Not an easy problem, I don't envy those who have to work this out.

Real good win. MS was 15-3 coming in, beating Oklahoma a couple of weeks ago. They're losses are us, #2 S. Carolina, #12 Kentucky, #17 Georgia Tech.

Are you talking about this? Bottom of the Forums page.

A while back you could see the number of members signed in at the present time. When the site was updated that feature which was up at the top disappeared.

Hell, I can do $10 a month even at my salary..lol.. where do i sign up?? Could even do more depending on monthly salary.

I don't do a ton, but I do what I can. I cancelled my VQ and put that toward it. Made more sense to help recruit than read about it. Every bit helps.

 

[SoilVol]

Big Lady Vols win.

Tell you what, I'm excited for them to host UConn on Feb 6th.

If the women's rowing team are bringing in income, they are entitled to a portion. If they are not, it's a hobby.

FWIW, kudos amigo.

Man Banks is divisive. I do like that we fight about 2-3 losses now instead of 10.

Mookie, I think I’ll let this one go.

I was watching Australian MasterChef last night. Good show.

Some guy made a meringue and everybody cheered.

I thought, that's kind of odd. Usually in Australia they boo meringue.

I don't disagree, but that doesn't sound like where we're headed. I'm not sure the total number of SAs, so $20M may get diluted enough that it may end up little more than a stipend. However, if it were apportioned based on a pro rata share of the revenue of your sport, that might create some real tension. Imagine if the football team is getting six figures each and the rowing gals get a gift certificate to Starbucks. Surely no one would get upset about that?!? Right?

New allegations for assistant coach in UF basketball falling out of the investigation regarding the head coach.

Report: Florida Basketball Assistant Taurean Green Accused of Sexual Assault

Green was named in a complaint filed on Tuesday by a University of Florida athletics department employee.

www.si.com

The employee, who asked to remain anonymous over fear of retaliation, accused Green of kissing her and trying to put his hand down her pants in the athletics facilities in March of 2024, the report said. The complaint also says that when the employee pulled Green's hand away and said no, he tried again, and she was able to get away from Green after.

Furthermore, the employee did not report the alleged encounter immediately, she told ESPN, due to Green's status as a two-time national champion as a former player and a current assistant coach, a position he has held since 2022.

The employee first decided to report the incident after being asked to be interviewed by Title IX investigators regarding Golden's interactions with female athletes. Golden is accused of sexual misconduct with allegations of stalking and sexual exploitation, according to a Title IX complaint filed in late September.
