Clemson going down like the titanic. And I'm here for it!!!

You hate to see it.

So my wife and I were booked to spend a week in Cancun starting tomorrow. Can't go. She got sick. So that's that.

If you need me and my fiancé to go in your place, I would be willing to do that for you. You know, fellow Vol and all.

yet all the four and five stars are still committed to thosw wretched places

 

[UTProf]

Seriously? That is causing people to question?

The world today..."Let's pick out some random guy...and ruin his life...over nothing."

It's not even accurate. Turns out to be a grad assistant and his gf. He just looks like Golding bc of the beard.

Clemson OC Tony Elliot eyed by Duke, Virginia for head coach position

Again, it’s almost like Tennessee’s administration knew what they were doing by not jumping head first into NIL stuff without knowing what the actual rules are….

Dabo to the Raiders?

He did say he'd quit coaching if kids ever got paid.

Guess he left out the part where he'd keep getting paid, but just let everything crumble around him.

Apparently the NCAA is gonna investigate multiple teams for NIL violations. This is very good for us

Probably Texas AM is one

What violations? If I recall correctly, didn't the ncaa just throw some open ended 5 line statement saying they were allowing nils?

Besides...wgaf what the ncaa decides to do? They can go eff themselves. The whole nil thing may end up being the final nail in the ncaa coffin. Companies (SChools) paying athletes to play are going to be less apt to give a damn what the ncaa has to say.

So you haven’t finished your assignment from yesterday?

I was never good with homework. Or classwork. Or work in general...

Dabo would be such a failure in the NFL. Not with his coaching style

All these ADs and schools treating it like "b-b-but the NCAA won't be around in 12 months!" bout to get cremated for their arrogance

Meanwhile we skate right past other teams while everyone is crushed and down, because we came forward and now we're the least of their worries...

 

[Weezer]

I feel this will work to our favor. We have been behind on NIL deals in comparison to other schools.

I was being sarcastic. It's a lost art.


I hope they burn Texas A&M to the ground!

Lets wait and see. The AA is a paper tiger. Most likely some walk on scholarships get cut and its business as usual.

What would our class be ranked if we were to flip Nolen and Tyre West?

Google “247 class ranking calculator”.

I'd imagine that Tennessee took a conservative approach this year while the investigation is still underway. On the positive side for you guys, the NCAA would look stupid handing out a stiff punishment for McDonalds bags now that it's perfectly legal for the CEO of McDonalds to walk out on the field at half time and present the entire team with a McDonalds duffel bag.

Idk he develops the heck out of players, right there with Saban, maybe better. The NFL is one place you can't just stock talent artificially and Dabo was there going toe-to-toe with Bama before they had even seen a top 5 class.

Otoh, I'd bet a lot lf those grown *** men would have some strong words for Dabo and his past words. And maybe you're saying this too - but he may be too preachery and soft for a bunch of NFL types.

 

[Devo182]

Siap but 247 finally released it's amended rankings that include transfers and will in the future. Very cool feature, it's about time. They're too important to not include.

 

[Weezer]

Where are the commits today? Somebody needs to get on that. Where's @Bassmaster_Vol ? Where all the commits at, Bass??!

Meh, it was illegal at the time...and still is. We (apparently) paid then directly. Schools still can't just hand bags of cash directly to players.

Though I could agree it may not be too stiff. We caught it ourselves (institutional control), came forward, have cooperated. Imo we'll get something decent and it will probably be wideranging, but not too bad on each point. Such as a laundry list of punishments but things like...losing OVs...fewer days for this...that...and schollys ofc. Just let us have our bowl

 

[ClasslessVol]

Not good

 

[Wickman]

Maybe Napier is a good recruiter after all
