I guess...but the NCAA is closer to being extinct as opposed to getting stronger.
Oregon has been killing it in recruiting

- Start date
I agree with that, I just wish the one big billionaire that UNL has ties with would actually give something to our athletes. With that said 100% agree that he is conservative and could probably give two shits about NU football. Hopefully someday Nebraska can get some monster donors that are willing to shell out some coin. I'd be just like Phil Knight if I had the cash.
Of for sure...but the new version of the NCAA will be working FOR the colleges. The schools will vote and determine things. It will be more of the NFL model.
It’s a lacking of many things. As someone who hires people it’s frustrating with this 15 second mindset. Things get a little tough and boom, they’re off to greener pastures (where they’ll face the exact same pressures).
It’s the way our society has shifted. Gnat brains have many more opt outs. There’s an honor to a commitment and taking the narrow path. Honestly, there’s less producers in this world and far more second handers. Making it easy to climb if you’re strong willed and honest.
We all want the easy way out. But rarely is that the most beneficial decision. Most of what is revered and earned in this life is through hard work and not taking the easy way out.
I can’t honestly say if making it easier for kids to leave a commitment in regards to football is better or worse, as long as intentions are noble. I can just tell you selfishly it dilutes the product we watch as viewers. It also teaches kids to chase money which is a bad path to go down.
If you had Phil Knight cash, you probably couldn't give it all away to Oregon fast enough.
But if I had "only" $20 million in wealth for example. I wouldn't give a lot but what I would give to NIL, I would want control over how my money was spent.
Yeah would be cool if you could select where your NiL money went. Like towards a position group or something
Only if that is what the colleges want to create. But you have to remember, it is not their money, in the NFL it is the owners money, of course they want a cap.
In college, it is not their money, what do they care?

Although this may have more to do with the sh!tty economy we are in that everyone is pretending is awesome

Careful. I got a week's vacation for saying that word.😞
At that level yeah. I'd want some say. I'd probably also just go buy a shit load of the individuals clothing that they are selling and give it away to their hometown or my old hometown. Definitely would be selective with the players I wanted to support.
That is nuts. Some of these mods are ridiculous. I get having control if it is getting nasty on the name calling or personal attacks, but some of the other bans are just flat out comical.
What's even more comical is the sensitive snowflakes that report it to the mods. They all wear vagina hats.
Sh!tty? Well let’s hope Nebraska football is better otherwise I’m gonna get bant all season
This is funny because this is what Dallas Cowboys fans get mad at Jones for...
But it would be hard to give all that money and just be totally hands off.
I could not imagine any post that would make me think "I need to report this"
So I am going to report it...to another loser (like me) that is sitting on his couch, eating chips, surfing the web and watching TV?
That that dork (like me) has some sort of "power"
So a kid may go to the highest bidder out of HS. Then if Whoever U offers him more money to jump ship doesn’t that lead to the jumping around.
When the job market was hot, it was a sellers market. It was well worth one’s time to dip their toes into multiple offers being made.
It seems to me that the unbridled, no holds barred, Wild West we are currently experiencing make lead to more jumps.
it's my and all alumnus's fault for not becoming billionaires fast enough to take advantage of this
If I had Jerry Jones money and the Cowboys I'd be hands off and try to get the correct people in place to run my franchise. At a much lower level of money, yes, I want more say. Similar to now. I try and go support the NIL things that I want. Have bought clothes, jerky and given a little to 1890 but until we get good it gets harder and harder. If I was a billionaire, I'd be spending coin on the Huskers, but it'd probably be more in the arena of making sure we are always at the forefront of equipment and facilities that way my name could be on it. Lol. NIL would get some as well, but it'd probably be a more direct thing as I don't trust anything Davison is involved in.
Don’t they monitor the board and threads themselves. I just figured how you got a vacation.
The free board not so much. They only get alerted when someone reports a post or another poster.
I remember. We kept in contact through the DM's.
There’s also a competing desire to find a good place with good opportunity, good coaching, good development, good NIL money, and not bounce around into an entirely new situation as often as possible.
I agree. I would put my money toward returning starters, graduate seniors-- trying to keep the best players that we already have. Maybe five K bonuses for football players who get academic All-Big 10. Stuff like that. I wouldn't be able to handle paying money to a kid who wastes the money on stupid stuff and doesn't ever play.
Not gonna lie - I would have a bounty system. Key interception? Get paid! Long touchdown run/catch? Get paid! Knock the opposing QB out of the game? GET PAID!!!. And I would do it old school SEC style - build a fake McDonalds and hand them bags out in the drive thru...
Stopping Nike purchases will do nothing. Phil Knight is separate from Nike.
You have to hope that the heirs have the same allegiance to Oregon that he did. His son went to Portland St..
You mean like Chapter 11 bankruptcies up 34% from last year, small business bankruptcy filings up 61% from last year, and individual bankruptcies up 15% from last year?
Provable data like that is not a political statement, its the reality of what we ALL see.
It's like the 63 banks in this country, all on the verge of failing, that you can readily find on the Weiss Report. Has nothing to do with politics, has everything to do with people's money and their possible exposure.
