Imagine if we allowed the same sphere of morality to others with materially similar sentience.

Hopefully aliens will grant us such reprieve and not tell us we're here for them to eat 😆

Woah that's a lot but let's focus on this one bit for a moment, because all those highly knowledgable UCF fans and even media said UCF upgraded 😅🤣😂🤣🤣

UCF fans salty that Heupel needed an actually premier program to succeed at the highest level. (Also they hold the covid year against him with like 20 players sitting out and retiring). Without covid his winning percentage at UCF would have been truly elite.

I'm a huge fan of data tables that don't even bother to explain what the hell the data is. "4-Year Prior" what? "2-Year Average" what? I can make up a data set that shows that Heupel is better than Saban and Smart as long as I don't have to actually say what the numbers represent.

My word! If it’s a $10 million fine, then if I’m the administration, I’ll tell the NCAA that we will see them in court over that! That is absurd. Why does the NCAA need to make $10 million over something that an entire administration was involved in, and every single one of them are gone?! Also, we have self impose, 18 scholarship reductions! Unless it’s only one or two, I will tell them to kick rocks.

Have to punish the entity, no?

Same as corporations. Can't just have the board fire all the underlings and keep going untouched. Have to punish the entity directly.

It's their coaching grades. Coaching Matrix does them as well.

Big. So, basically, this ain’t a big deal and we’re good. Finally, it’s over.

No no, that can't be true. Just the other day multiple folks said how we should've bombed it like children...

This is the biggest recruiting scandal in recent history and we're to going to end up in a better position. So, hey 🍻

Thank you admin and staff 🙏🙏🙏

So I guess we'll be at an 83-man roster cap for the next 5 seasons with the extra scholarship reductions. It ultimately affects how many we can recruit.

P5 schools will form their own league in a few years and break away from the NCAA.

Said in 2012, 2015, 2019, 2021...

But seriously...considering the P5 are the main portion of the NCAA, and its monies are largely remitted back to the universities themselves....you can be dang sure every AD of any newly formed "association of universities" will grandfather said payment in...with "account transfer fees" 😅

Screw, the NCAA, wanting to vacate wins! Why are the sanctioned players not getting any penalties, when they knew it was illegal to take money? Instead, almost all of the penalties affect our current staff and players, who are not even involved in any of it! That is what ticks me off about all of this.

Vacated wins literally affects nobody, any place.

Give me 100 vacated wins and nothing else...done deal. In fact, just take all of our 15 year period up through Pruitt off the books 😂

It's pretty pathetic of them to compile all that data and then not even bother to label what the hell the numbers are. I hope you're not actually paying for that garbage.

Didn't post it. It's just some well known sites.

But not sure why you think any org would release proprietary metrics. It would end their entire business. Others just duplicate it...then you don't exist. But they do release what...generally...goes into it.

Same as many other prop analytics.

Seems tough to disagree with their results. Hype is best? Check. Malzahn still stinks? Yup.

I can almost see this perspective. Everyone knows that Bama and Georgia have gotten away with cheating to get where they are. Pruitt being too stupid to actually implement the Bama way of cheating is really just more proof IMO that they're allowed to get away with it. Saban and Kirby operate well-oiled cheating machines. Unfortunately, we hired the Cousin Goober of the bunch.
