It's called being cultured. I know yall up there in Appalachia don't know much about it.

How's Jesco & Suebob doing, btw?

Whoa. Understanding local WV Public Access TV Documentaries from the 90's is cultured?

I think some of you nerds who mess with spreadsheets will like this:

Are you always this serious, moran?

 

[UTProf]

If already posted…..my apologies

Thoughts??

Doubt it. Timeline doesn’t work at all. VolTwitter didn’t really start chirping until Nico missed practice. Fake Al is just trying to feel like he has clout.

I’m calling him “Fake Al” Wilsonovic, from now on.

Uhhh bc transparency laws prevent fraud.

Leveraging your position in a negotiation is not fraud.

Fraud hurts people. A dude saying he wants more NIL money or he’s gonna transfer does not. Again, your favorite football team is not the same as an innocent consumer.

I’m arguing against the government being involved. The government that allows corporations and billionaires to give tens and hundreds of millions of dollars in an effort to sway elections. That’s the government you think should be involved in enforcing anything to do with money in college sports? Comical.

That's an absolutely insane way of viewing the concept of enforceable contracts. The NFL-NFLPA CBA is enforced by the government. So.. the government runs the NFL? Jerry Jones is a CIA sleeper agent? It's absurd.

You don't need some government agency running the sport. You just need it to be legal for schools to give players pay-for-play contracts that are enforceable.

The deep irony in how you're defending the current structure is that it ONLY exists because of the half-baked NCAA rules that say it is forbidden to give a player pay-for-play contracts, but allowed to give them NIL contracts that aren't really about NIL, except when the player wants to negotiate in bad faith, in which case the school's hands are tied.

If I was in charge, I would remove all NCAA rules preventing pay for play, thereby getting rid of all these ridiculous loophole NIL contracts. In other words, less rules, less NCAA oversight. And you oppose that?

I gave one to my parents for Christmas. They're USB rechargeable and come charged. Dad looked it over and turned it on and messed with it. Mom said "let me see that" and dad handed her the racket part and zapped mom. She dropped and it zapped herself 3 more times before I could get it turned it off. She was fussing at dad and he said "why'd you do that for?". Good times.

Damn , having to sell off stuff to raise money!!!

Buddy we will have one of the best offensive lines in CFB this season. I think a lot of people are at least six months behind reality. Past performance is not an indicator of future results. The entire line has been revamped and upgraded. By November many will realize that.

Yep, and it’s a false narrative that last year’s OL sucked. You simply don’t lead the SEC in rushing when your OL sucks. Did they struggle in pass protection against elite defenses? Yes. Name a team that doesn’t. Nico also struggled to read defenses and make quick reads which exacerbated the problem. Not saying the OL was elite but it was absolutely above average. If a guy like Hooker was at the controls last year people would be claiming our OL was elite.

 

[MoCo_Vol]

This is crazy...

2 QBs after their first year playing D1

63.7% 3757 passing yards, 33 TDs 10 INTs, 249 rushing yards 3 TDs
65.9% 2723 passing yards, 22 TDs 6 INTs, 132 rushing yards 1 TD

Both are 6'3" and 200lbs+

One got paid almost 4 million in NIL to play at Duke, One is Joey Aguilar....

I could just be playing overly optimistic fan here...but I think we got a potential steal of a deal in this whole exchange.

That wasn’t Aguilar’s Fr season at App St. Went to Juco first. He’s a Sr this year.

But I like all rhe other info in this post!

The OL was far from elite last year. It downright sucked at times.

Injuries were the main culprit, for sure.

If they can stay healthy this year they can’t help but be better. Time will tell.

Sampson made them better in the run game and Nico made them worse in the passing game.

I predict the Titans will select Ozamataz Buckshank with their first pick.

Or Torque (jackhammer sound) Lewith

The market will work itself out

It will but I think it will be incredibly favorable to the schools with the richest boosters who love sports. Basically MLB which I think is pretty bad. I guess we could argue it’s better than favoring who the NCAA lets cheat the most. It’s basically capitalism so I get it but I would prefer we have true amateur sports in college and fully understand that’s a pipe dream. I tend to think people will care less and less as we chase the money. It’s also sad for other sports that are non revenue and it’s going to negatively impact a lot of young athletes. It will favor the few but I just think College sports should be different than professional. I understand that my view is outdated but I truly think this will end poorly. I’m not arguing with you specifically by the way.

Over under passing stats for The new qb this season. I will set the lines at 2,800 yards 32 tds 8 ints

Look around, there are a lot of things in today's world that are based in fiction and no base in reality. Trillions of dollars are spent without facts or basis in reality. Hell we couldn't have Washington D.C. iffin everything had to be based on fact.
