What parity?

Prime Time on the NIL!!!!!

"When you start paying athletes like they're professionals, you get athletes acting like they're professionals," Sanders said. "And you don't have staffs large enough and equipped enough to handle a young man with money. Let me go deeper. Handle a young man that's making more money than some of the coaches on staff."


"I suggest to you to allow college teams to hire more qualified men. Qualified. That can handle these young men that's getting this money," said Sanders.
Sanders said that smaller schools such as Jackson State can't compete with the amount of money Power 5 schools are paying.
"See, with the NIL, which really ain't NIL because it ain't no name, image, and likeness, it's just pay-per view right now," Sanders said. "That's what they're doing at the big boys, little boys we can't compete with that. But anyway, you've got a problem,"
Sanders said he brought attention to the issue because he's trying to help before the problem gets worse.
"I’m trying to help before it blows up in your face. Money Makes You More Of Who You Really Are. Now think about that for a minute," wrote Sanders on Twitter.

Can y’all keep my father in your prayers. He went in for a kidney stone and they have found a mass (unrelated to the kidney stone) and he has an appointment to find out more information. I don’t know the location of the mass but am still freaked out about it (he decided not to tell me until an hour before his appointment this morning).

You got it brother, just prayed!

I have no idea how surrounding them with an army of coaches is supposed to help.

Ahh, the irony.

Nick Saban quoted in an ESPN article (about NIL):
“If we don’t create that balance, I think it’s going to affect the competitive standard of the game in the future and probably even affect other sports. But so, hopefully somebody will be able to figure that out.”

Just golden. Saban is just like Calipari in that he is a manipulator, and his followers lap it up as the truth. It’s quite remarkable.

Gimme a break! Yeah because there has been SO MUCH balance in college football the last decade!

not sure i like the timing on all of this with the NCAA. We find out our penalties right after UGA and Bama run to the NCAA for help slowing us down.

I’m not sure I do either. This has the feeling that the NCAA is going to bend us over AFTER we already bent ourself over. We are about to find just how good Danny White is. The penalties we chose to self-impose, as well as firing everyone attached to the scandal and making the players transfer, should be plenty of punishment. We are finding out that Saban and Kirby are very scared of Heupel and what Tennessee can become under him. They are trying their hardest to keep our program held down. PUT ON MORE STEAM!!

He's exactly right and despite the fact that we appear to be doing well with things this part needs to be reined in. It won't hurt our recruiting to regulate that aspect of things. It could absolutely kill the sport if we don't. College football is about more than being a damn farm system for the NFL.

Will do, absolutely.

 

[OGbabyaviVol]

I also found it interesting that when they were talking about the investigation, "someone close" to it was talking about, how could you penalize a school for giving someone $ 150,000.00 and then have them not go to that school and go somewhere else. In that situation what did the other school he did go to give him. It does make you think.

Yeah the NCAA needs to be inquiring Georgia and find out what they paid Mims to get his signature.

 

[UTProf]

I think what he's saying is that a lot of places you're giving young guys a ton of money with no one to help them. It's like handing someone who has never held a gun before a loaded weapon without telling them anything about it. IOW, disaster incoming unless that's remedied.

Are you still there?

bammer already has vastly illegal numbers of coaches. They just changed the name to analyst and kept hiring and of course with no repurcussions for their flagrant cheating. They also hired a coach who was literally banned, iirc, by the same transparent and unpunished method.

The scholarship limit is a way for them to offer everybody to keep anyone else from getting players; the old Bear mode. This is a way bammer and geirgia intend to respond to NIL, which is to say, to teams other than them being permitted to pay for players without being put on probation, which definitely erodes bammer and geirgia's longstanding illegal advantage. Or rigging if you want to use the slang term.

f them both.

I think y'all are being paranoid. We got Nico - they were after Manning. We haven't done anything that's of much concern to either of them. TAMU, otoh, brought in a number one class out of the blue. For the most part, we're recruiting at the level we always recruit at minus the coaching change years. Even at our worst we've brought in great classes.

We have momentum right now but that was going to happen with or without NIL after seeing Heupel's success in year 1. You don't take a team ranked in the 100s on offense to a top offense in year 1 and not attract recruits. We're seeing the benefits of that.

 

[MrVolton]

NCAA needs to keep its hands off NIL and let the market regulate itself. I like how Huepel and co seem to be picky about it, and seem to be emphasizing certain character traits. That is smart. Programs that just throw fat stacks of cash at every 5 star mercenary that visits, are going to crash and burn when those guys constantly hold out for more and the boosters start demanding playing time for their investments. Let those programs burn, and it’ll regulate itself.

Also need more sources calling Saban and Smart out for hypocrisy. They’ve got the old system figured out and don’t want to lose their edge having to adjust to a new one. It’s so blatant, why would anyone pay attention to them on the matter?

 

[UTJoe]

Gonna be In Charleston SC the next few days and of course its supposed to rain all 3 days. Any recommendations on things to do in Charleston while it's raining?

I've been saying it for years...................Just wait. Athletes WILL unionize down the road.

 

[BigOrangeVols]

I could be wrong, but I don't foresee these trucks with all this new technology getting any cheaper. My trade is probably only going to decrease in value. Plus my credit union is offering 1.8% on 60/72 month loans through the end of June so I'm trying to take advantage of that. Think I'm leaning towards a Silverado LTZ at the moment but also looking at the Sierra Elevation and SLT trims.

I do think they come down, but maybe this is the new normal. Certainly hope not. That is a very good rate, the market for trucks is just ugly right now.

Watch sports

Not a fan but I’ll do it

No, that's what Grizz said.

Funny your quick google search and mine are complete opposite although this is the diesel

Lol, absolutely nobody associates Ram with reliability. You do understand these awards go to the highest bidder right?

Their own fanbases are in denial along with Clemson fans it’s hilarious

 

[***RoadVol***]

Looked into them. Any trim above an SR5 is pretty much $60,000 sticker and there's virtually none on the lots at the moment.

You may want to research the turbo waste gate issue on the new tundra. Some peoples have been in the shop for months waiting on parts.
